Weight support systems
A diaper-changing platform system is disclosed having a structural frame supporting member that receives a platform member. The platform member is configured with interlocking sections configured such that at least one interlocking section can be positioned to project from the platform member to enable an infant or toddler to sit on the interlocking section and is also configured to be positioned such that the platform member defines a generally flat surface enabling an infant or toddler to be positioned lying on the generally flat surface. A stroller for transporting an infant or toddler includes a frame and the diaper-changing platform system. The frame of the stroller receives the diaper-changing platform system when the platform member enables an infant or toddler to sit on at least one interlocking section to enable transporting via the stroller the diaper-changing platform system. A weight supporting system including usage of supporting ribs and exoskeletons is included.
Adjustable pouch with lace tightening mechanism having enclosed protected laces
An adjustable pouch or pocket for carrying an article such as one or more ammunition magazines, armor plates, batteries, radios, grenades, bottles, and the like in hostile environments, integrates a lace tightening system for adjusting the pouch size, fit, and/or tightness about the article or articles, wherein a lace or laces of the tightening system are largely or substantially incorporated into an arrangement of one or more enclosed cavities or pockets within or between certain of the panels so as to be protected from exposure and potential damage while still allowing free movement of the lace or laces, and which largely isolates the laces from the carried article or articles so as not to catch or snag the article when being inserted or removed from the pouch.
Harness design for respiratory system
A harness may be used to carry a breathable air system. Generally, the harness may comprise at least one shoulder strap and a plurality of attachments configured to attach the at least one shoulder strap to the breathable air system. Additionally, the plurality of attachments may allow the breathable air system to be configured into a plurality of strap configurations. For example, the plurality of strap configurations may include a hip configuration, a waist configuration, a leg configuration, and/or a back configuration. In some configurations, an additional/accessory strap may be used to more securely carry the breathable air system in the plurality of strap configurations.
Carrying device for carrying a hand-guided power tool to be carried by a user
A carrying device for carrying a hand-guided power tool by a user has a shoulder strap and a lateral leg plate with a connecting unit for coupling a power tool to the carrying device. A support strap is connected with one end to the shoulder strap and the leg plate is slidably arranged at the support strap to slide along the support strap in a longitudinal direction thereof. A fixation device is arranged between support strap and leg plate and has a release position and a blocking position. In the release position, the leg plate is slidable along the support strap; in the blocking position, the leg plate is non-slidably secured on the support strap. The blocking position is correlated with a first working mode of the power tool; the release position is correlated with a second working mode of the power tool.
CHEST BUCKLE FOR A HARNESS
A chest buckle for a harness for carrying a handheld motor-driven work tool, the chest buckle including first and second parts, wherein the first and second part, each includes at least two mechanisms attaching straps of the harness thereto. The first part includes a recess defining a cavity arranged to accommodate the second part therein. The second part includes a resilient locking member arranged to protrude through a hole in the first part when the second part is accommodated in the cavity to lock the first and second parts together.
SHOULDER TRANSFER WEIGHT SUPPORT SYSTEM AND FACE SHIELD
A shoulder transfer weight support generally having a hip or waist belt, a back support, and one or more shoulder extensions. The back support has an upper back plate attached to the shoulder extensions and a lower back plate attached to one or more hip belts. The lower back plate features a bracket shaped to receive an end of the attachment bar that joins it to the upper back plate. A spring-loaded plunger can be inserted into the attachment bar to allow for height adjustment of the device. A face shield at least partially made of a radiopaque material and can attach to the back support. One attachment option is a yoke mount with vertical sections at either end of the yoke mount. A second option involves a mount that attaches to the shoulder extension(s). The device can use a full face shield or a face shield with an open front.
High visibility vest with hands free umbrella device
A hands-free umbrella device includes a vest having a waist strap and a pair of shoulder straps. The vest is constructed from a lightweight material having high visibility markings along a portion or the entire body. An umbrella assembly is removably connected to the vest, and includes a central pole, a control mechanism, a rib assembly and a canopy. A plurality of retention members is disposed along the back portion of the vest for receiving an elongated shaft that is connected to the umbrella assembly. The elongated shaft includes a user adjustable shape, and the retention members are arranged to position the umbrella assembly over the left or right shoulder of a wearer. The umbrella assembly is telescopically engaged to the elongated shaft and a height of the umbrella canopy is adjustable.
MOBILE ENTERTAINMENT APPARATUS
A mobile entertainment system that is portable and can be easily carried by a user for playing audio while providing a DJ-like musical experience. The apparatus can be positioned around the torso of the user supported by shoulders and waist. The apparatus includes a frame to which different components can be mounted. Over the front mid-portion of the frame can be mounted a DJ console. The user can enter into the frame between the console and the rear side of the frame such that facing the console. A harness, which can be worn like a backpack, can be coupled to the frame and allow carrying the apparatus hands-free. The apparatus includes a DJ console, Sub-woofer, DJ lights, speakers, amplifiers, and the like equipment common in a DJs system. A specially designed sub-woofer housing is coupled on the rear side of the frame.
Hands-free item carrying device
The present disclosure provides hands-free item carrying devices and related methods. The devices include a support platform including an interior surface with an item support portion, a bottom and top ends. The devices further include a flexible stabilizing portion coupled to a bottom portion of the support platform and positioned adjacent to the interior surface. The devices also include a body harness with a pair of shoulder straps, at least one first end portion coupled to the stabilizing portion, and at least one second end portion coupled to at least one of the stabilizing portion and the support platform. When the shoulder straps are worn by a user, the support platform is selectively movable between an open positioned angling away from the user from the bottom end with the top end being distal to the user, and a closed positioned with the top end being proximate to the user.
Tool storage devices
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.
