<p>TITLE OF THE INVENTION Back-carrying harness assemblies A back-carrying harness assembly, e.g. for supporting a gas cylinder for breathing apparatus on the back of the user, comprises a carrier for the cylinder or other load which is hinged in the region of the user's shoulder blades to a back plate. The back plate extends down the back of the user and is hinged at the lumbar region to the frame of a pelvic girdle. The combined effect of the upper and lower hinging with the location of the girdle, which supports the greater part of the loading of the carrier, low down on the user's anatomy, allows a considerable degree of freedom of movement to the user.</p> |
