Carabiner divider and fall arrest system

1. A divider for a carabiner in a fall arrest system, the carabiner having: (1) a frame; and (2) an openable gate attached to the frame and configured to be moved between an open position, wherein at least one component of a harness arrangement and at least one fall arrest device can be attached to or detached from the frame, and a closed position, wherein the at least one component of the harness arrangement and the at least one fall arrest device can be secured to the frame, the divider comprising:

a body having:

(i) a central body portion; and

(ii) (ii) a plurality of connection portions extending from the central body portion and configured to attach the divider to at least a portion of the frame,

wherein the plurality of connection portions are spaced and divide the carabiner into a plurality of areas for connection of the at least one component of the harness arrangement and the at least one fall arrest device,

wherein at least one connection portion of the plurality of connection portions comprises a collar extending around the frame, and

wherein the collar is positioned substantially adjacent to and spaced from one end of the gate.

2. The divider of claim 1 , wherein the collar is configured to facilitate the swiveling of the divider from an engaged position, wherein all of the plurality of connection portions are attached to the frame, to a disengaged position, wherein only the collar remains attached to the frame.

3. The divider of claim 1 , wherein, when attached, at least one of the plurality of connection portions is slidable along the frame and configured to facilitate complete removal of the divider from the carabiner.

4. The divider of claim 1 , wherein at least one connection portion of the plurality of connection portions are removably attachable to the frame.

5. The divider of claim 4 , wherein the at least one connection portion comprises a substantially C-shaped clip member that is configured to fit at least partially around at least a portion of the frame.

6. The divider of claim 5 , wherein the substantially C-shaped clip member is substantially deformable or flexible, such that the substantially C-shaped clip member can be frictionally engaged with the frame.

7. The divider of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the body is positionable substantially adjacent the gate.

8. The divider of claim 7 , wherein the central body portion comprises at least one edge extending substantially adjacent to a side of the gate, such that, when the divider is attached to the frame, the gate is prevented from pivoting to the open position.

9. The divider of claim 7 , wherein the central body portion comprises at least one stop formation positioned substantially adjacent an end of the gate, such that, when the divider is attached to the frame, the gate is prevented from longitudinally sliding.

10. The divider of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of connection portions define four areas, comprising: (1) a first area for connection of a first fall arrest device; (2) a second area for connection of a second fall arrest device; (3) a third area for connection of the at least one component of the harness arrangement; and (4) a fourth area at least partially surrounding the gate.

11. The divider of claim 1 , further comprising at least one rib formed on the body at least partially along at least one of the plurality of connection portions.

12. The divider of claim 1 , wherein the at least one fall arrest device comprises a first fall arrest device and a second fall arrest device.

13. A fall arrest system, comprising:

a harness arrangement removably attachable to a user;

at least one fall arrest device having a safety line having a connector on an end thereof, the connector configured to be secured to an anchor point;

a carabiner comprising a frame and an openable gate attached to the frame and configured to be moved between an open position, wherein at least one component of the harness arrangement and the at least one fall arrest device can be attached to or detached from the frame, and a closed position, wherein the at least one component of the harness arrangement and the at least one fall arrest device can be secured to the frame; and

a divider comprising a body having: (i) a central body portion; and (ii) a plurality of connection portions extending from the central body portion and configured to attach the divider to at least a portion of the frame, wherein the plurality of connection portions are spaced and divide the carabiner into a plurality of areas for connection of the at least one component of the harness arrangement and the at least one fall arrest device,

wherein at least one connection portion of the plurality of connection portions comprises a collar extending around the frame, and

wherein the collar is positioned substantially adjacent to and spaced from one end of the gate.

14. The fall arrest system of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of connection portions define four areas, comprising: (1) a first area for connection of a first fall arrest device; (2) a second area for connection of a second fall arrest device; (3) a third area for connection of the at least one component of the harness arrangement; and (4) a fourth area at least partially surrounding the gate.

15. The fall arrest system of claim 13 , wherein the at least one component of the harness arrangement comprises at least one of the following: a harness connector, at least one strap of the harness arrangement, or any combination thereof.

16. The fall arrest system of claim 13 , wherein the at least one fall arrest device comprises at least one clip member, wherein the at least one clip member is configured for attachment to the frame in at least one of the plurality of areas.

17. The fall arrest system of claim 13 , wherein the at least one fall arrest device comprises a first fall arrest device and a second fall arrest device.
