1. A CONFIGURABLE SAFETY DEVICE comprising:
an articulated tubular structure which comprises a cable and a plurality of rings disposed along said cable, wherein the rings are located in an available cable extension, along with a stop and a lock;
a main branch that comprises:
one or more anchorage clamp (3) perpendicular to the cable (10) and crossed by the cable, where each anchorage clamp (3) has a mouth (18), a male side (17) and a female side (16);
a plurality of rings (11) crossed by the cable where each ring has a male base (12) and a female base (14) with the rings aligned in the same direction, with the male base of one facing the female base of the next;
a male re-entry {19) at the female side (16) of each anchorage clamp and a female re-entry (13) at the male base (12) of each ring (11);
a steering lock (4) comprising a latch (2);
a flashing;
wherein each anchorage clamp is movable from an unlocked position to a locked position on the cable defining different configurations of the safety device;
wherein an available cable extension is variable from a maximum available cable extension position to a minimum available cable extension position;
where-in when disposed in the maximum available cable extension position the rings have spaces between them and are movable along the cable to define a gap at a point where one of the anchorage clamps is disposed and grips the cable; and
wherein the steering lock returns the available cable extension of the cable from the maximum available cable extension position to the minimum available cable extension position thereby fixing the disposition of the one of the anchorage clamps in close contact with the rings adjacent to the one of the anchorage clamps and preventing opening of the anchorage clamp.
