SOFT LINK FOR CONNECTING A GROUP OF PARACHUTE SUSPENSION LINES TO HARNESS VIA RISERS

摘要

A soft connector link (fig 1) is disclosed for connecting a first item to a second item such as canopy suspension lines to a canopy riser. In a first embodiment, the soft link preferably includes a flexible body member (21) having a first looped end (24) and a second looped end (26). A tab member (30) is preferably attached or secured to the second looped end. The soft link is preferably constructed from a rope-like material such as high strength fiber. In an alternative embodiment, the second end of the body member is tabbed or lumped, as opposed to being looped. Two attachment methods for using the soft link as a connector are also disclosed and illustrated.
