Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a waist belt, which can adjust its position according to the wearer particular body shape and to a backpack having such a waist belt.
  • Backpacks usually comprise a pack body and a pair of shoulder straps.
  • some types of backpacks such as trampers backpacks or haversack, can also include a waist belt, which makes the pack body stable and closer to the wearer back and let part of the pack body weight to be applied not only on user shoulder but also on the user waist and hips as well.
  • At present backpacks generally comprise means that let the backpack to be adjustable to the wearers different sizes.
  • the shoulder straps and the waist belt can vary their length and position.
  • the same backpack can fit users with different body characteristics such as shoulder width, chest and shoulder size, waist size, torso height and waist shape.
  • a conventional waist belt has a strip shaped in order to better adhere to the user waist profile.
  • waist belt has to be tight around the torso just below the waistline and it has to adjust its lateral inclination according to the user hip shape and specifically to the waist inclination below the waistline.
  • the carrying may be comfortable, if the weight force is applied not only to the shoulder or to a small hipbone area, but if it is also uniformly applied along the entire waistline.
  • waist belts which can vary not only their distance from the top junction of shoulder straps with pack body, but also their angular position therewith.
  • US-A-5,725,139 discloses a waist belt that can change its angular position; in particular this type of belt includes two lateral hip parts; each part presents two horizontal spaced straps, one of which can vary its length by setting the buckle which said strap passes through. In this way the two straps can have different lengths, which cause the lateral hip part to vary its angular position.
  • the main object of the invention is to provide a backpack with a waist belt, which can fit every kind of user waist shape by simply binding the belt around the torso, without complicated adjusting setting elements.
  • a backpack comprising a pack body, and a waist belt with two side hip portions, each one joined to the pack body at one end, and a strap connection interconnecting said two side hip portions, in order to encompass the user's torso, characterized by further comprising, for each said hip portion, a webbing fastened to the related side hip portion on at least one point, forming a closed loop, a first buckle, through which said webbing is connected to said pack body; a second buckle, through which said webbing is connected to said strap connection.
  • a waist belt 10 comprises:
  • the waist belt 10 is of a symmetrical construction, only the right side portion thereof will be now described with particular reference to figures 1 to 3 .
  • the hip portion 11 has essentially a triangular shape, one cathetus C of which is substantially parallel to the backpack maximum extension direction, namely close to vertical.
  • the joint between the hip portion 11 and the pack body 30 is restricted to a small connecting portion 15 of said triangular shape, specifically at the bottom end of said cathetus C, in such a way that the entire side hip portion 11 can rotate around said connecting portion 15.
  • the webbing 20 is sewn through its ends on the related hip portion 11 at points 25, 27, so that the webbing 20 and the part of the hip portion comprised between said points 25, 27, does form a closed loop.
  • said fastening points 25, 27 are positioned near the other two vertexes of the hip portion 11.
  • the length of said webbing 20 is greater than the direct distance (D) between the fastening points 25, 27 where the webbing ends are sewn on, as schematically illustrated in fig. 2 ; in fact the webbing 20 is retained on the side hip portion 11 by the uniloop 14 and the buckle 16 which the webbing 20 slidably passes through.
  • the webbing 20 can be ideally divided into three parts: the first one 24 extends from one fastening point 25 to the buckle 16 and has a length L 1 , the second part 22 from said uniloop 14 to said buckle 16 and has a length L 3 and the third part 26 from the uniloop 14 tohe opposite sewing point 27 and has a length L 2 .Thus the total length of the webbing (L 1 + L 2 + L 3 )is greater than the direct distance (D) between the fastening points 25, 27.
  • a ribbon 32, connecting said webbing 20 with the pack body 30, passes through the uniloop 14.
  • said uniloop 14 can be directly connected to the pack body 30.
  • each side hip portion 11, 17 is connected by said webbing 20 to the pack body 30 and to the strap connection 18, in such a way that the waist belt 10 encompass the user's torso.
  • the webbing 20 is slidably movable through said uniloop 14 and said buckle 16 in such a manner that the lengths (L1 and L3) of its first and third part 24, 26 can be varied. As a consequence, by passing through the sleeve 28, the webbing 20 moves the side hip portions 11, 17 angularly around the connecting portion 15.
  • the side hip portion 11 can be set in different angular positions, varying the ideal angle having, as a vertex, the connecting portion 15 of the side hip portion 11 with the pack body 30, and as the sides the base cathetus of the ideal triangle which the side hip portion can be assimilated to and the ideal horizontal line coming from said connecting portion 15.
  • this in turn increases the lateral slope B 1 of the hip belt - the slope of the ideal line tangent to the lateral profile of the waist belt - and this change let the hip belt to accommodate accentuated hip profiles, as shown in figures 4, 6 .
  • the waist belt 10 increases its length and the webbing 10 moves with respect to the hip portion 11 - the length L 2 of the first webbing part 24 decreases, while the length L 1 of the third webbing part 26 increases.
  • the lateral slope of the hip belt decreases - angle B 2 - so as to fit a less notable hip profile, as illustrated in figures 5, 7 .
  • the webbing 20 can be a band joined to the related hip portion at a single point 12, in such a way that it forms a one-body closed loop, as illustrated in figure 8 , where the same parts of the first embodiment show the same reference numbers.
  • each side hip portion 11 is provided with an opening 13 at the level of the user's hip bone, so as to improve the wearability of the back pack.
  • one reach of the closed loop formed by the webbing 20 can be slidably housed in the hip portion 11, the other reach being freely positioned outside thereof.
