Abstract
The present invention relates to an arrangement for carrying loads, particularly a camera, on a first shoulder. The arrangement comprises a hip-belt (3), a support beam (1) extending upwardly from the rear of the hip-belt, a boom (2) pivotably arranged on and extending out from the upper part of the support beam, and a pre-tensioned, extensible cord (11) or ribbon, stretching from the free end of the boom for connection to the load. The invention is characterized in that a shoulder-strap (4) extends from the hip-belt (3), over the wearer's shoulder and to the support beam (1), and that the cord runs inside the boom (2).

The present invention relates to an arrangement for carrying loads, particularly a camera, on a first shoulder. The arrangement is of the type eo~ isinO a hip belt, a support beam extenting upwardly from the rear of the hi~belt, a boom pivotably arranged on and extendinO out from the upper part of the support beam, and a pre-tensioned, extensible cort or ribbon, stretching ~rom the free end of the boom for connection to the load.
BACKGROU~D ART
~Iodern man is now usually no longer in top physlcal condition The natural exercising of muscles and joints resul~ing from the daily struOgle of previou5 generations for sun~ival i5 no longer applicable. Motern tools are not al~ays ergonolnically desi3ned. Take the example of a TV
yhotoOrapher with his camera held on his shoulder. Carrying a c~mera on one shoulder causes an une~en load on. the spine.
A knot~ n deYicc (see SU A 1~2~660) sho--~s an arran~ement for holding A
h~nd camera. Ho-~ever, this arrangement cannot be used by a photograyher usinO a shouldes camera since it cannot be used on top of a shoulder-strap, at least not ~-ithout consiaerable motification of the desi,,n.This arrangement is cumb_,~G",e, hea~y and Iacks stability and good ~eight distnbution.

SU~ ARY OF THE I~VE~IO~I
The present in~ention aims at a solution of the problems mentioned above and associated problems. It is characterizet in that a shouIder-strap extends from the hip-~oelt, o~er the wearer's shoulter and to the support beam, and that the cord runs inside the ~OOM. An arrangement is thus obtained that effecti-~ely retuces the loat on the sho~lder ant transfers the load to the hips cr to a stationary object. A stable, balanced arrangement is obtained, close to the body, since the cord is carried internally in the arranc,ement.

In a preferred embodiment a force-absorbing sprin~ is arran~ed in the supyort beam ant connected to the cord irl order to achieve said pre-tension in the cord.

Claims (7)
1. An arrangement for carrying loads, particularly a camera, on a first shoulder, comprising a hip-belt, a support beam extending upwardly from the rear of the hip-belt, a boom pivotably arranged on and extending out from the upper part of the support beam, and a pre-tensioned, extensible cord, or a ribbon, stretching from the free end of the boom for connection to the load to relieve its weight, c h a r a c t e r i z e d i n t h a t a shoulder-strap extends from the hip-belt, over the wearer's other shoulder and to the support beam, and that the cord runs inside the boom.
2. An arrangement as claimed in claim 1, c h a r a c t e r i z e d i n t h a t a force-absorbing spring is arranged in the support beam and connected to the cord in order to achieve said pre-tension in the cord.
3. An arrangement as claimed in any of the preceding claims, c h a r a c t e r i z e d i n t h a t a pivotable support is arranged at thelower, free end of the support beam, so that when the support is applied against a counter surface it relieves the weight from the hip-belt.

5. An arrangement as claimed in any of the preceding claims, c h a r a c t e r i z e d i n t h a t the shoulder-strap is displaceably secured to the support beam.
6. An arrangement as claimed in either of claims 4 or 5, c h a r a c t e r i z e d i n t h a t a cushion is arranged at the attachment of the shoulder-strap to the support beam.
7. An arrangement as claimed in any of the preceding claims, c h a r a c t e r i z e d i n t h a t the cord runs from the force-absorbing spring, inside the support beam, over a first pulley, through the boom, over a second pulley and to the camera.
