Abstract:
A bifurcation method and system for a passive continuous belay system that allows for a user to select multiple pathways using intermediate tracks. A main track and the intermediate tracks provide a linear passive continuous belay using an anchor mechanism that is configured to grasp the outside of the structural member track, using rolling elements and/or low-friction sliding. The user may select multiple pathways using intermediate lateral tracks to provide Cartesian movement at designated (e.g., perpendicular) transition or junction points. Desired tracks may be selected by a user via sliding along a support plate or track in a junction box and/or by rotating a portion of the junction box. Amusement attraction activities that include non-harnessed play may be intertwined or located adjacent to activities utilizing harnessed play.

Claim (Index 14):
A safety system for coupling a user to an amusement attraction comprising:\n a first track; a second track separate from the first track; a junction box that interfaces with the first track and the second track, the junction box having a rotating portion containing a support surface; and a safety mechanism configured to couple with the user and travel along the first track or the second track, an exterior surface of the safety mechanism configured to engage with the support surface of the junction box when the safety mechanism is within the rotating portion of the junction box, wherein the safety mechanism is configured to be moveable between the first track and the second track within the junction box by rotating the rotating portion while the safety mechanism is engaged with the support surface.
