  • the line can be secured to the guide by a traveller which can travel along the rail, such that the person is able to move along the edge of the roof, without the risk of falling from the roof.
  • a second anchor installed on said roof for connecting a second outer end of said line to said roof; said anchors being located substantially on an axis extending from said corner towards the centre of the roof, wherein the angles between said axis and both edges of the roof which form said corner are substantially equal; wherein said first anchor is located at a larger distance from said corner than said second anchor; wherein said line is provided with line regulating means, which connects a central part of the line with the part of said line between said central part and the second outer end of the line, such that said central part of the line with the line regulating means can travel along said part of the line; and wherein said line is provided with securing means for connecting the line with said person, such that said securing means can travel along said line between said central part of said line and said second outer end of said line.
  • This configuration of line anchors and line regulator provide the person with the right freedom of movement, without running the risk of falling over the edges near the corner of the roof.
  • said first anchor is the corner of a guide extending at a distance along said edges of the roof, and said first outer end of said line is connected to said guide by means of a traveller which can move along said guide, such that said person can walk along said edges.
  • a traveller which can move along said guide, such that said person can walk along said edges.
  • Said second outer end of said line is preferably provided with connection means that allows said person to connect said second outer end with said traveller or said second anchor at the choice of said person, such that if said connection means are connected to said second anchor the securing means can reach a larger distance from said traveller than if said connection means are connected to said traveller.
  • Said securing means preferably comprise a belt which the person can wear around his waist.
  • a secondary securing means is preferably attached to said line near said line regulating means at the central part of the line, for connecting the central part of the line with said person.
  • Said secondary securing means preferably comprise a second belt which the person can wear around his waist.
  • Said connection means at said second outer end of the line preferably is a snap hook. In this manner an easy to use and safe system is provided.
  • Said second anchor is preferably mounted on said roof by means of gravity force acting on a weight to which said anchor is connected, said weight being such that the frictional force between the anchor and the roof is large enough to prevent that the person can accidentally move said anchor over said roof, whereby there is no need for making holes in the roofing, thermal insulation, and/or supporting construction of said roof.
  • the location for connecting said line to said second anchor is preferably located between 0.75 m and 1.75 m, more preferably approximately 1.25 m from the edges adjacent said corner.
  • the location for connecting said line to said first anchor is preferably located at least 2 m from the edges adjacent said corner, for instance approximately 2 m, 3 m or 4 m.
  • Said line preferably has a length which is approximately equal to: 2 x (the distance between the location for connecting said line to said first anchor and the edges adjacent said corner - 0.75 m).
  • the invention also relates to a line for tethering a person to a roof; wherein said line is provided with line regulating means, which connects the central part of the line with the part of said line between said central part and the second outer end of the line, such that said central part of the line with the line regulating means can travel along said part of the line; and wherein said line is provided with securing means for connecting the line with said person, such that said securing means can travel along said line between said central part of said line and said second outer end of said line.
  • the invention relates to a method for preventing a person from falling from a corner of a roof; wherein two anchors are located substantially on an axis extending from said corner towards the centre of the roof, wherein the angles between said axis and both edges of the roof which form said corner are substantially equal; wherein a first one of said anchors is located at a larger distance from said corner than the second one of said anchors; said method comprising the steps of: using a line for tethering said person to said roof; wherein said line is provided with line regulating means, which connects a central part of the line with the part of said line between said central part and the second outer end of the line, such that said central part of the line with the line regulating means can travel along said part of the line; and wherein said line is provided with securing means for connecting the line with said person, such that said securing means can travel along said line between said central part of said line and said second outer end of said line; connecting the first and second outer ends of said line to said first anchor; disconnecting
  • Said line preferably comprises secondary securing means which is attached to said line near said line regulating means at the central part of the line, and which is secured to said person before said second end of said line is connected to said second anchor, and the method further comprises the step of releasing said secondary securing means from the person after said second end of said line is connected to said second anchor.
