This invention relates to a device for automatically securing a climber climbing a wall, wherein it comprises: a shaft guided in rotation, at least one drum comprising a groove for receiving a line wound around the drum at least once, an irreversible control member interposed between each drum and the shaft preventing a relative rotation between the drum and the shaft in a first direction and allowing rotation of the drum in a direction opposite the first direction, a system for continuously taking-up the slack of the line, and a means for controlling rotation of the shaft in a direction opposite that allowed by the irreversible control member, enabling the climber, who has fallen, to descend.

A device for automatically securing a climber climbing a wall, wherein it comprises: a shaft guided in rotation by bearings adapted to be supported by the wall, at least one drum comprising a groove for receiving a line wound around the drum at least once and of which one end of the line is adapted to be connected to the climber, an irreversible control member interposed between each drum and the shaft preventing a relative rotation between the drum and the shaft in a determined direction and allowing rotation of the drum in a direction opposite the determined direction in order to allow the end of the line connected to the climber to rise, a system for continuously taking-up the slack of the line occurring as the end of the line connected to the climber rises, and a means for controlling rotation of the shaft in a direction opposite that allowed by the irreversible control member, enabling the climber, who has fallen, to descend.
