Rucksack hip pad arrangement.

摘要

At least one device (22, 23) serving as a wedge by having a first end portion which is broader than a second opposing end portion is mounted with its broader end portion uppermost between the or each hip or lumbar pad (10) and the rear of the rucksack (14) so as to press the upper portion of the pad into close contact with a user's back/hip to effect downward transmission of load to the user's hips. <IMAGE>
