This invention provides a rope stopping device and a wearable object incorporating the device for accommodating and positioning a rope. The device includes a base, an eccentric wheel, and a spring arm. The base longitudinally forms a semi-open accommodating space and a positioning element, with the positioning element located within the accommodating space. The eccentric wheel is mounted on the positioning element. The connecting end of the spring arm is connected to the base, and the abutting end of the spring arm engages with the side wall of the eccentric wheel to limit the rotation angle of the eccentric wheel. The side wall of the eccentric wheel and the side wall of the accommodating space form a stopping channel. When the rope passes through and is engaged in the stopping channel, the spring arm applies force to the eccentric wheel, causing the side wall of the eccentric wheel to clamp the rope between itself and the side wall of the accommodating space. This invention uses the downward pressure of the rope to rotate the eccentric wheel, changing the width of the stopping channel. When the rope is fixed in the stopping channel, the spring arm applies force to the eccentric wheel, causing it to rotate and quickly clamp the rope. The operation is simple and convenient.
