Safety rope is a rope used to maintain the safety of staff and objects when working at heights. The safety rope is hand-woven with man-made fiber, fine hemp rope or galvanized steel wire rope. It is an auxiliary rope used to connect seat belts. , suitable for internal and external line welders, construction personnel, telecom network workers, cable maintenance and other similar technical jobs. Its role is double maintenance to ensure safety.
It has been proved in thousands of specific examples that the safety rope is the rope that saves people. It can reduce the specific impact distance when there is a fall, and the safety buckle and the safety galvanized steel wire rope cooperate with each other to produce a self-locking device to prevent electric shock. The rope breaks during the work of the hanging basket, which causes a falling object. Safety ropes and safety belts are used in conjunction with each other to ensure that workers are not easy to fall with the electric gondola. Safety accidents happen in an instant, so when working at heights, be sure to fasten safety ropes and seat belts in accordance with regulations. Safety ropes are underworld forces that work at heights. The safety ropes are tied to a hard life. A little carelessness will cause serious harm that is likely to lose life.
We have finished talking about the functions of safety ropes. Let’s follow me below to find out what are the common problems of safety ropes in daily use?
1. Prevent the safety rope from touching organic chemical objects. Rescue ropes should be stored in a shaded, cool and compound-free area, preferably in a dedicated rope bag for safety ropes.
2. The safety rope needs to be discharged from the army if one of the following conditions is met: the surface layer (wear-resistant layer) has large-scale damage or the rope core is exposed; continuous application (registered for daily rescue and disaster relief tasks) 300 times (inclusive) Above; the surface layer (wear-resistant layer) is stained with oil stains and flammable chemical residues that are difficult to wash for a long time, which endangers the performance index; the inner layer (bearing layer) is seriously damaged and cannot be recovered; in active service 5 years above. It is especially important to note that when doing rapid descent, it is not necessary to use a camisole without metal hooks, because the heat generated by the safety rope and O-ring during rapid descent will be immediately transferred to the non-metallic material of the camisole to be lifted. If the temperature is too high, it is very likely to melt the hanging point, which is very risky (generally speaking, the camisole is made of polyester raw material, and the melting point of polyester is 248 ℃).
3. Carry out an appearance inspection once a week. The inspection content includes: whether it is scratched or severely worn, whether it is eroded by chemical compounds, severely discolored, whether it becomes wider, narrower, looser, or stiffer, and whether the rope wrap appears Severe damage, etc.
4. After each application of the safety rope, you should carefully check whether the surface layer (wear-resistant layer) of the safety rope is scratched or severely worn, whether it is eroded by compounds, widened, narrowed, loose, hardened or covered by the rope. In the event of serious damage (you can check the physical deformation of the safety rope by touching it with your hands), if the above-mentioned situation occurs, please stop using the safety rope immediately.
5. It is forbidden to drag the safety rope on the road. It is not necessary to crawl the safety rope. Pulling and crawling the safety rope will cause the gravel to grind the surface of the safety rope, causing the safety rope to wear out faster.
6. It is forbidden to cut the safety rope with sharp edges. All parts of the sandbag gaiter safety line are very susceptible to wear and tear when they come into contact with all the edges and may cause the safety line to crack. Therefore, use safety ropes in areas with risk of friction, and be sure to use safety rope sanitary napkins, wall guards, etc. to protect the safety ropes.
7. It is advisable to use special type of rope washing equipment when cleaning. Neutral detergents should be used, and then rinsed with cold water and dried in a shady natural environment. It is not necessary to expose to the sun.
8. Before the safety rope is used, it is also necessary to check whether the metal equipment such as hooks, movable pulleys, and 8-shaped rings of the slow descender are burred, cracked, deformed, etc. to prevent injury to the safety rope.
