Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for load carriage using a load carriage apparatus. In one implementation, a frame top is disposed at a proximal end of a load carriage frame. The frame top includes a proximal bar and a distal bar each extending between a first side bar and a second side bar. A frame base is disposed at a distal end of the load carriage frame, and the frame base includes a rear portion connected to a first side portion and a second side portion. A spine connects a center portion of the proximal bar of the frame top to the rear portion of the frame base. A first tube extends from the first side bar to the frame base relative to the first side portion. A second tube extends from the second side bar to the frame base relative to the second side portion.

The invention provides an open attachment frame and at least one support, said support being arranged on the frame in such a manner as to be capable of extending outwards from the frame in a projecting position that, in service, enables a pack to rest on the support, the frame being shaped so that, in service, it extends at least in part around each of the user's sides so as to balance stresses between the user's back and both of the user's sides. The invention also provides equipment including such a frame.

A method and apparatus for transporting a wheeled case, such as an article of luggage, utilizing a belt with a connector positioned below the equator of the belt to secure the wheeled case to the user's back is provided. The apparatus may connect the handle of the wheeled case to the user's back and may allow the user to maneuver the wheeled case behind his or herself without further use of their hands.

An attachment system includes a wearable carrier and an attachment slot. The wearable carrier is formed at least in part from a flexible material having an outer surface and an inner surface opposite the outer surface. The attachment slot is formed through the flexible material and configured to receive a strap of an attachment accessory. The attachment slot extends from a first end to a second end and includes a first segment, a second segment, and a third segment. The first segment extends from the first end to the second segment. The second segment extends from the first segment to the third segment. The third segment extends from the second segment to the second end. The first segment and the second segment define a first non-orthogonal angle therebetween. The third segment and the second segment define a second non-orthogonal angle therebetween.

A carrying device includes a retractable support system for equipment carried in the hand. In some embodiments, the carrying device comprises a frame assembly for transporting larger loads and optimizing the weight distribution thereof. In some embodiments, the carrying device includes a support shelf. In some embodiments, the carrying device includes an expandable volume.

A paintball harness has a support plate with a rear surface that faces toward a user's lower back when the harness is worn by the user. A pair of primary straps extend from opposite ends of the back plate and can extend about the user's waist and removably couple to each other when the harness is worn by the user. The harness has a pair of secondary straps attached to the rear surface of the support plate and extend through a pair of openings in the support plate. At least a portion of the pair of secondary straps are elastic, the pair of secondary straps configured to releasably couple to a front surface of the pair of primary straps. A plurality of holsters attach to the support plate, each holster defining a channel that resiliently receives at least a portion of a pod of paintballs therein. The pair of secondary straps can be stretched while detached from the pair of primary straps to adjust a tension of the harness on the user and can be coupled pair of primary straps in the stretched position, where increasing the stretching of the secondary straps further pulls the support plate against the user's back when the harness is worn by the user.

A pro stylist belt comprising a band, with a buckle, attached to the belt are pouches, the belt and pouches both having snaps able to lock together, brush loops sewn onto the belt, also attached to the belt by snaps is a pocket for holding a phone and a zipper pocket for holding hair accessories, another pocket held to the belt by snaps, having sections for holding small items, and also having a front flap of the pocket which holds a magnet inside the flap, adapted to magnetically hold metallic items outside of the pocket.

The safety lighting system solves the problem of working in low-visibility situations by providing enhanced 360-degree visibility of a worker and his equipment to passing vehicles and pedestrians. The safety lighting system works in combination with a piece of maintenance equipment, a power tool, a battery pack, or a maintenance backpack. The safety lighting system illuminates the operator, the tool, and a surrounding area when the tool or piece of equipment is in use. Such a system allows a passerby to see the operator even in substandard light conditions.

A magazine retention device includes an attachment pouch and an insert. The attachment pouch includes a front panel, a rear panel opposing the front panel, and an attachment portion. The front panel is secured to the rear panel forming a cavity between the front panel and the rear panel. The attachment portion is configured to attach to a carrier. The insert is disposed within the cavity and secured to the attachment pouch. The insert has an first region and a second region. The first region includes a rectangular opening configured to receive a magazine. The second region includes one or more walls that bias toward a center of the cavity. Here, the one or more walls bias in contact with a received magazine.

A carry harness includes: two carry straps, two chest straps connected respectively to the carry straps, a chest fastener configured for joining together the chest straps, the fastener extending along an attachment plane, and at least one tool-carrying strap. The chest straps and the tool-carrying strap are connected to the chest fastener with freedom to pivot in the plane of attachment about at least one axis of pivoting passing through the chest fastener and perpendicular to the attachment plane. The chest fastener has a first part and a second part, which parts are non-pivoting and removable one from the other, the first part and the second part being connected respectively to the chest straps. Application to the carrying of tools and batteries of accumulator cells.
