Patent

CA 2386486

A confined space entry device has modularized components which allow the device to be readily reconfigured. In particular, the extension arm of the device is removably secured to one leg of an elbow, while a post or mast is removably secured to the other end of the elbow. The other end of the mast is removably secured to a base which supports the confined space entry device. In one version of the invention, the device includes tubular members made of a polymer composite material. In another version of the invention, the elbow is asymmetric about a central axis and is formed of cast aluminum. The device can include sets of different-length elongated members which can be interchanged with elongated members secured within the device.

L'invention se rapporte à un dispositif d'entrée dans un espace confiné comportant des composants modulaires qui permettent une restructuration aisée dudit dispositif. Le bras d'extension dudit dispositif est en particulier fixé de manière amovible à une branche d'un coude, tandis qu'un poteau ou mât est fixé de manière libérable à l'autre extrémité du coude. L'autre extrémité du mât est fixée de manière amovible à une base qui supporte le dispositif d'entrée en espace confiné. Dans une réalisation de l'invention, le dispositif comprend des éléments tubulaires fabriqués dans une matière polymère composite. Dans une autre réalisation de l'invention, le coude est disposé asymétriquement autour d'un axe central et est formé d'aluminium coulé. Le dispositif peut comporter des ensembles d'éléments oblongs de longueurs différentes qui peuvent être interchangés avec des éléments oblongs fixés à l'intérieur du dispositif.
