A reconfigurable waterproof bag is defined by a plurality of material surfaces extending in three dimensions, a strap for carrying the bag, and one or plurality of strap guide(s) into which the strap is disposed and through which the strap may be moved, the strap guide extending within or without the bag from any one of the plurality of surfaces to any other one of the plurality of material surfaces in three dimensional space without limitation to define a geometry of a strap path and coupling of the strap to the bag so that the bag is reconfigurable in a plurality of different carrying modes.

A carrier system for use with a body armor garment that distributes the shoulder loads produced by equipment carried or worn by military or law enforcement personnel, away from the user's shoulders and comfortably to the hips. Heavy shoulder loads, which typically cause chronic back pain and can lead to compression of the spine, are significantly mitigated. The carrier system has a vertical back support and a belt for securing the device around the waist of the user. In addition to alleviating shoulder fatigue and spine compression, the device is light, comfortable, durable, adjustable and easy to maintain.

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.

There is disclosed a harness for breathing apparatus comprising a structural support member for supporting a vessel of breathable gas, a waist belt, and a pivot joint mechanism coupling the structural support member to the waist belt. The pivot joint mechanism comprises a release part which is movable to decouple the structural support member from the waist belt.

A tool belt, including a main body including an adjustable belt to allow a user to wear the tool belt, at least one speaker disposed on the main body, and a battery disposed within the main body to provide power to the at least one speaker.

A Torah Scroll contains the holiest books in Judaism, which is scribed onto parchment and rolled onto two wooden scroll holders with handles. Many people cannot carry the Torah at all and have a fear of dropping or damaging it due to religious implications. The present invention includes a carrying strap or belt with loops, worn in various configurations and comprised of various materials, wherein the handles of the Torah are inserted into the two loop and the weight of the Torah scroll is supported, making it easier to carry.

Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for supporting a pet along trapezii and behind a neck of a user. In one implementation, a core assembly of a bolster has a middle section disposed between a first end section and a second end section, and the middle section positionable behind the neck of the user. An elongated body of the core assembly is positionable along the trapezii of the user in a horizontal orientation. The elongated body extends continuously from the first end to the second end. A padded body of the core assembly extends about the elongated body. A cover is engaged to the core assembly. A securing assembly has a first strap connected to the first end section and a second strap connected to the second end section. The core assembly is releasably securable to the user in the horizontal orientation using the securing assembly.

A system provides an under belt that includes: a first under belt side including a first hook and loop fastener strip, a second under belt side connected to the first under belt side where the second under belt side includes a first heavy duty material outer portion. The under belt further includes an inner under belt portion disposed between the first under belt side and the second under belt side. The inner under belt portion including padding material. A middle belt includes multiple expandable padding portions. A duty belt includes: a center duty belt portion having a first duty belt side and a second duty belt side, a first elastic end attached to the center duty belt portion and a first belt buckle portion, and a second elastic end attached to the center duty belt portion and a second belt buckle portion.

A carrier provides deployable protection for protecting a user. The carrier includes a shell with an internal compartment and an external pair of shoulder straps. An armored panel has a pair of tethers each with an anchored end secured inside the internal compartment of the shell. A flexible pair of extractors can lie in front of the shell and each has a proximal end attached to the armored panel. Using separate hands the user can grasp the pair of extractors at a position in front of the user, and use the extractors to manually extract the armored panel up out of the internal compartment. The pair of tethers can then be draped over the shoulders of the user while positioning the armored panel over the chest of the user.

A waist wearable fishing kit enabling impromptu fishing includes a strap and a fishing rod. A first and a second coupler, which are complementary, are coupled to a first and a second end of the strap, respectively. The strap is configured to loopedly position around a waist of a user, positioning the second coupler to couple to the first coupler. A pouch, which is water-impermeable, is coupled to the strap. An aperture that is positioned in a top of the pouch is configured to allow access to the pouch. A closure that is coupled to the pouch proximate to the aperture is positioned to selectively sealably close the aperture. A reel fitted with a line is coupled to the fishing rod, which comprises a plurality of sections that are selectively interconnectable so that the fishing rod is collapsible to stow in the pouch, positioning the user for impromptu fishing.
