A carrier assembly for a harness for carrying a backpack accessory, the carrier assembly including a back plate including connections for shoulder straps and an interface plate adapted to be attached to the backpack accessory. The back plate includes a coupling interface on a rear face arranged to be removably connected to a corresponding coupling interface on a front face of the interface plate.

An attachment system for supporting holders on a carrier includes a platform having a front side, an opposite back side, the platform being constructed of laminated layers having slits therethrough defined and bound by opposite edges of the layers fused together to increase wear and abrasion resistance of the edges, the slits arranged in a predetermined pattern of aligned and spaced apart rows, the slits being configured to receive straps therethrough between the front side and the back side to attach at least one holder to the platform, and the platform being supported by and comprising an element of a carrier configured to be worn against a portion of a user's body, the back side and at least one element of the carrier or a backing element defining and bounding a generally flat cavity through which the back side can be accessed.

A back suspender apparatus includes a back carrier for carrying at least an object thereat and a suspension arrangement. The suspension arrangement includes a back support coupled to the back carrier, and a carrying system which includes two shoulder straps extended from the back support and two resilient straps provided at the shoulder straps respectively for absorbing a bounding force of the back carrier so as to minimize a relative movement of the back carrier with respect to each of the shoulder straps.

A carrier assembly for a harness for carrying a handheld motor-driven work tool, the carrier assembly including a back plate having connections for shoulder straps, a hip belt, and a manner for attaching the work tool. The back plate is arranged to be connected to the hip belt by a pivotal connection joint to allow rotation about an axis substantially perpendicular to a plane defined by the back plate.

A case for a portable hand-held devices, such as binoculars. The case assembly includes a main case portion having an opening defined by a periphery and a cover. A reconfigurable member is attached to at least a portion of the cover and can be configured to correspond to an outer profile of the hand-held device being stored within the case.

A 3 dimensional shape retaining light weight pouch and method for making the same, for mounting on a carrier such as a garment such as, but not limited to, a vest, belt, cummerbund, pack, or the like, and more particularly, that utilizes standing portions of stiffened fused together edges of laminated or composite panels of the pouch to hold the pouch in a predetermined 3 dimensional shape. The pouch is durable and wear resistant, allows easy insertion and removal of articles, accessories, and objects to be held and/or carried thereby, and is simple and easy to manufacture, while being configurable to be compatible with some known systems mounting systems such as MOLLE PALS and the like.

Tool storage devices. A tool storage device may include a handle assembly including a support arm connected between a body and a handle portion and having a substantially rectangular cross section oriented with first walls extending transverse to the axis having a greater width than second walls extending parallel to the axis. A width of the handle portion may be at least about 50% of a width of the body. The body may include a frame assembly formed of a rigid material, a wall formed of a flexible material and at least partially defining the storage compartment with an open top, and a cover formed of a rigid material connected to the frame assembly to selectively close the open top. A wheel well portion receives each wheel and may cover the width of the wheel and a portion of the circumference of the wheel. A radial clearance between the wheel and a lower end of the wheel well may be no more than about 0.5 inches.

A holster with an adjustable-depth pocket for hands-free use and carrying of electronic devices. The pocket is sleeve like and is defined by four walls, a stirrup webbing on the bottom, and an elastic restraining cord on top, thus forming a six-element restraining system for dampening device movement. The tongue forms a stirrup pendent from the front wall that is looped below the pocket and brought up inside the pocket, where it reversibly and adjustable attaches inside the back wall. The elastic cord is fastened superiorly on the back wall and is secured to the front wall near the top lip with a snap or clasp so that the device is immobilized while permitting access to device controls. The upper lips of the side walls are angulated so as to form a guide slot or rails for self-centering and guiding the device into the stirrup. The holster may be integrated into complex wearable combinations that are comfortable, durable and multifunctional.

A tether tracking system configured to secure and monitor a one or more tools to prevent drops and accidents by a worker. The tether tracking system comprises a base portion, a two or more straps, a one or more hooks, a tool strap and a one or more hook anchors. The two or more straps comprise at least a first strap and a second strap. The first strap comprises a first end and a second end. The second strap comprises a first end and a second end. The two or more straps are attached to the base portion with the second end of the first strap and the second end of the second strap attached to the base portion. The first end of the second strap is attached to the tool strap. The tool strap is configured to selectively attach to one among a one or more tool tethers.

A blower may include: a volute case defining a suction port, a volute chamber, and a discharge port; an impeller rotatably supported within the volute chamber; a motor connected to the impeller and configured to drive the impeller; and an outer case accommodating the suction port of the volute case and the motor. The outer case may include an external suction port, and define an air passage extending from the external suction port to the suction port of the volute case. When the blower is held or worn in a predetermined posture by a user, the external suction port of the outer ease may be configured to be located so as to be open vertically downward.
