The following specification particularly describes the invention and the manner in which it is to be performed.
DISCLOSURE
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
The present disclosure relates generally to safety equipment, and more particularly, relates to an outrig anchor assembly for providing protection to people working on the height from falling.
BACKGROUND
As per Global safety standards and policy, any person working over a height of 2 meters, needs to be protected or anchored with any arrangement which will protect the fall of person from that height. Research has shown that the maximum no. of falls occurs when people are working at low heights and the fall can be fatal if a person takes free fall for more than 2 meters.
In order to use conventional outrig anchors known in the art, it is required to excavate the area around the working plane and to make a foundation which together made the anchoring base. This step is time-consuming, costly, and disturbs the entire floor and working area. Further, for placement of the anchors, breaking the existing concrete also loosens the nearby concrete area.
Conventional cantilever devices vibrate and slightly bend on the loading side due to all weight concentration in the cantilever direction. Further, these cantilever devices are cumbersome to assemble and time-consuming in installation. Presently, there are many fall arrest and safety devices available in the market to protect work at height. With such devices available, there is another permanent arrangement available on-site to install these devices and use them when required. For example – a person working on machinery or a tank which has an overhead beam of the permanent anchor can connect this fall arrester to protect his fall. But under various conditions, such type of ideal arrangement where you get an overhead or side permanent anchor beam or structure is not available. Also, there are some conditional or working challenges, which restrict the arrangement of such kind of permanent structures. Mentioning some typical cases –
1. Person working on a machine or large fabrication unit where there is a movement of overhead Electric overhead traveling (EOT) crane.
2. Person climbing over a chemical or oil tanker outdoors to check the level or do an inspection.
3. With the EOT crane on top, nothing permanent below having an L shape for loading or unloading can be installed in the line of action of the EOT crane. This might damage the crane or the anchor point.
4. There is limited or no space available for heavy devices.
5. We cannot excavate the ground to make a permanent foundation due to lack of space, continuously working plant, cannot break existing concrete which will damage other heavy materials, and need freedom of space and application.
6. Multiple usages from the same anchor point.
There are no outrig anchors assembly known in the art that does not require excavating of ground area, easy to assemble, install and dismantle in confined spaces and provide safety to the working person from falling.
There is therefore, a need for an outrig anchors assembly that does not require excavating of ground area, easy to assemble, install and dismantle in confined spaces and provides safety to the working person from falling.

2. The design of the base distributes the direct static load and the vibrational load on the top thick plate attached to the bottom base anchor. The top plate evenly pushes the load to the bottom anchor base which absorbs the generated load easily.
3. Rotation base is fitted with self-lubricating plates and bearing to allow the entire top structure to rotate.
4. Handle with drop pin lock allows the user to lock the rotation at its desired location.
5. Unique feature on the top anchor is the attached tension tube. Tension tube has various important work to perform –
i. It absorbs vibration on the device by distributing tension on the device.
ii. It supports the additional load in its opposite direction balancing the
entire device.
iii. Gives additional strength to the device.
iv. Add aesthetic value to the device.
6. The outrig anchor assembly is a unique device that solves a major problem in
the industry by providing a quick fix (on existing concrete), rotatable anchor
device, with a minimum 6 meters height and minimum 2 meters cantilever
reach.
While considerable emphasis has been placed herein on the specific features of the preferred embodiment, it will be appreciated that many additional features can be added and that many changes can be made in the preferred embodiment without departing from the principles of the disclosure. These and other changes in the preferred embodiment of the disclosure will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the disclosure herein, whereby it is to be distinctly understood that the foregoing descriptive matter is to be interpreted merely as illustrative of the disclosure and not as a limitation.

8. The outrig anchor assembly (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first column (104) detachably attached to the rotational base (102) by means of a locking rod (120) and a handle (122) and configured to provide rotational movement to the outrig anchor assembly (100).
9. The outrig anchor assembly (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first column (104) comprising:
a first coupling base (104a) with a plate having holes and a rod at the bottom of the first column (104) and configured to fit the rod into the hollow pipe (102a) of the rotation base (102); and
a first coupling top (104b) with a plate and hollow ingress at the top and configured to couple with coupling base of another column.
10. The outrig anchor assembly (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second column (106) is having a second coupling base (106a) with a rod and plate at the bottom of the second column (106) and configured to fit the rod into the hollow ingress of the first column (104).
11. The outrig anchor assembly (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the at least one second column (106) telescopically attached to the first column (104), and wherein where the at least one second column (106) comprises more than one second columns (106), the more than one second columns (106) are also telescopically attached to each other, wherein in such an arrangement, the at least one tension tube (110) is also telescopically attached to the first column (104) and the at least one second column (106) to stabilize the vibrations resulted from addition of load on the cantilever boom assembly (108).
12. The outrig anchor assembly (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cantilever boom assembly (108) comprises:
a cantilever boom (124) extending transversally from the at least one second column (106), wherein a proximal end (124a) of the cantilever boom (124) is detachably coupled to an end portion of the at least one second column (106), the
cantilever boom (124) having a safety rope member (126) coupled to a distal end (124b) of the at least one second column (106) to receive a safety rope to which a working user is tied; and
a boom support (116) coupled to the at least one second column (112) and the cantilever boom (114) to support the cantilever boom (114) extending transversally from the at least one second column (112).
