Fixing device for abseiling on a single rope. When abseiling, the double rope is most often used: the height of the rappel can not exceed half the length of the rope. The device according to the invention makes it possible to fix one end of the rope (4) to the ring (3) of the relay, to rappel down the entire length of the rope, and then to unhook the device from the bottom of the return. The device consists in particular of a loop (2) which can be opened or closed around the ring (3), and a lock (1) which keeps the loop (2) closed as long as the rope (4) is on. The opening of the loop (2) is controlled by acting specifically on the tension of the rope (4). The device according to the invention is particularly intended for abseiling.
