Patent attributes
A swivel anchor point for fall protection. The swivel anchor point includes a ring element and a housing element. The ring element defines a closed attachment aperture. The housing element is adapted to receive and retain the ring element such that the ring element can be freely rotated through a swivel angle of at least 180 degrees about a swivel axis, and freely rotated through a pivot angle of at least 90 degrees about a pivot axis that is perpendicular to the swivel axis and that substantially intersects the swivel axis. The ring element includes two spaced apart leg members, the leg members having foot portions extending inwardly, toward the swivel axis. The foot portions have respective, spaced apart relatively enlarged ends. The housing element includes apertures corresponding to these ends, the apertures being suitably sized, closer to the swivel axis, for pivotally receiving the ends, while being of a sufficiently smaller size, farther from the swivel axis, to prevent passage of the ends therethrough.
