<p>The invention provides a rucksack (1) or Bergen, which can be converted into a stretcher relatively easily. The rucksack comprises an inner pack (3), which is housed within an outer pack (2) and secured thereto by a zip (4). The inner pack (3), containing all of the contents of the rucksack (1), can be easily removed and then the outer pack (2) can be disassembled by use of further vertically arranged zips (4) which allow the outer pack (2) to be totally disassembled and laid flat. All additional carrying handles and straps, when used as a stretcher as, for example, carrying shoulder straps for the inner pack (3), are housed between the pack (2,3) when in normal use as a rucksack.</p> |
