Abstract

A hammock suspension device for guiding a guy rope. The device comprising a base body in which two apertures and a receptacle for inserting a retaining loop formed by the guy rope are disposed. The two apertures are on top of one another in the longitudinal direction of the hammock suspension device. The upper aperture which is oriented toward the fastening point of the guy rope displays a guide duct for introducing the guy rope into the hammock suspension device, which guide duct enables a deflection of the guy rope in this region, from approximately the longitudinal direction of the hammock suspension device to approximately the transverse direction of said hammock suspension device.

Claims

1. A hammock suspension device (1) for guiding a guy rope (4), comprising a base body (11) in which two apertures (6 and 7) and a receptacle (2) for inserting a retaining loop (3) formed by the guy rope (4) are disposed,

the two apertures are disposed on top of one another in the longitudinal direction of the hammock suspension device (1),

wherein the upper aperture (6) which is oriented toward the fastening point of the guy rope (4) displays a guide duct (5) for introducing the guy rope (4) into the hammock suspension device (1),

which guide duct enables a deflection of the guy rope in this region, from approximately the longitudinal direction of the hammock suspension device (1) to approximately the transverse direction of said hammock suspension device.

2. The hammock suspension device (1) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the receptacle (2) for inserting the retaining loop (3) formed by the guy rope (4) is disposed in a hook-like manner on the lower end of the hammock suspension device (1).

3. The hammock suspension device (1) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the hammock suspension device (1), as a bearing body, forms the receptacle (2) for the loop end (3), wherein retaining means which cause a secure bearing of the loop end (3), which encloses the hammock suspension device (1) are at least disposed on the upper side on the hammock suspension device (1).

4. The hammock suspension device (1) as claimed in claim 3, wherein for the releasable securing of the rope loop, a retaining nose (10) is disposed at least on the upper side on the hammock suspension device (1).

5. The hammock suspension device (1) as claimed in claim 3, wherein for the releasable securing of the rope loop to the hammock suspension device (1), guide grooves which run in an approximately vertical manner are disposed at least laterally on the base body of the hammock suspension device (1).

6. The hammock suspension device (1) as claimed in claim 4, wherein for the releasable securing of the rope loop to the hammock suspension device (1), guide grooves which run in an approximately vertical manner are disposed at least laterally on the base body of the hammock suspension device (1).
