DEVICE FOR WARNING ABOUT THE ABSENCE OF BELAYING OF A CLIMBER

A device for warning about the absence of belaying of a climber includes an enclosure intended to be fastened to a harness. A pressure sensor is designed to measure a barometric pressure. A detector, intended to be fastened to a link, is configured to detect a movement of the link within a range of positive inclines with respect to a horizontal reference plane. The detector is also configured to output a detection signal comprising a first state, indicating that the link is within the range of positive inclines, and a second state, indicating that the link is outside the range of positive inclines. A microprocessor is configured to compute a variation in the barometric pressure measured by the pressure sensor, and send a warning signal as soon as the variation in the barometric pressure exceeds a predetermined threshold and the detection signal is in the second state.
