The pulley (1) comprises two sheaves (2) arranged in line with grooves defining an axis of circulation of a cable (3). A blocker (12) allows the movement of the pulley (1) along the cable (3) in a first direction and prevents the movement of the pulley (1) in a second, opposite, direction. The blocker (12) defines a slot (13) with two opposite lateral walls (12a, 12b) connected by an end wall. The blocker (12) is rotatable between first and second positions. The axis of circulation of the cable (3) separates the two lateral walls (12a, 12b). The first lateral wall (12a) is able to move along the axis of circulation of the cable (3). The rotation of the blocker (12) between the first position and the second position occurs about an axis of rotation passing through the axis of circulation of the cable (3) so as to offset the two lateral walls (12a, 12b) along the axis of circulation of the cable (3).
The connector comprises a first ring (1) provided with an immobiliser (3) engaging with a rod (2). The rod (2) can move between a first position, in which the first ring (1) is closed, and a second position, in which the first ring (1) is open. The immobiliser (3) can move between a first position (3) engaging with the rod (2) to keep the first ring (1) closed and a second position allowing the first ring (1) to open. A second ring (5) is provided with a feeler (6). The feeler (6) is connected to the immobiliser (3). When the distance between the feeler (6) and the sliding zone is greater than a threshold value, the feeler (6) prevents the first ring from being opened by the immobiliser (3). When the distance between the feeler (6) and the sliding zone is less than the threshold value, the feeler (6) allows the first ring (1) to be opened by the immobiliser (3).
