FIELD: personal demand items.
SUBSTANCE: fixation system includes handrails fixed on the outer surface of the space object and a winch with a safety rope attached to the cosmonaut's spacesuit. The free end of the rope is fixed on the immobile element of the object structure. Brackets with cylindrical helical spirals with one full and two half-turns are mounted on the handrails. As the cosmonaut moves forward, he passes the cable through these spirals, installed at the beginning and end of the straight sections, on the corners and bends of the handrails route with an interval equal to the reach of the astronaut's outstretched hand.
EFFECT: increased safety and ergonomics of safety line fixing by the astronaut to prevent uncontrolled migration.
