My suggestion would be a winch kind of thing. Like a volleyball crank, or maybe a rope cleat. Try googling those, see what you come up with.

Edit:
I also happen to have seen your climber. If you were to add another of a certain mechanism that is on the top to the bottom, it could just sit on that.
