Description

The invention relates to a carrier system with a front and a back part and means for attachment to a human upper body according to the preamble of claim 1.

From the general state of the art support systems with a front and a back part are known, which are formed ballistic in the rule and are referred to as ballistic protective vests or armored or bulletproof protective vests. Body-worn ballistic vests are commonly used in the military and police to protect people against stabbing or bullet attacks.

To ensure ballistic protection, the protective vests to be worn on the body generally have a bullet-resistant composite composed of several layers. Essentially, differences are made between so-called soft / softballistic and hardballistic protection packages.

The known ballistic protective vests generally have a front and a back part, which should provide protection against stabbing weapons and / or firearms.

A generic carrier system is from the EP 2 052 632 A1 known. The carrier system consists essentially of three components, namely, first, a ballistic protective vest with a front and a back part and means for attachment to a human upper body. Secondly, the carrier system has a hip belt which can be placed around a hip of a human and, thirdly, the carrier system has two lateral supports connecting the hip belt to the rear shield-shaped region of the ballistic vest, ie the back part thereof. In the back part of the ballistic protective vest electronic components, such. As a radio, be integrated.

The hip belt known from the generic document with the lateral supports makes it easier to wear a protective vest without excessively limiting the freedom of movement of the wearer. Further, if necessary, the lateral support can be designed to convert a relative movement that a human produces during walking between the hip and the upper body into an electric current. This is also on the EP 1 994 841 B1 referenced, which protects such a design.

The from the EP 2 052 632 A1 known protective vest in combination with the hip belt has been found to be particularly suitable for military and police operations and applications.

It is particularly important in the case of the described carrier systems that they can be stored or delivered quickly in an emergency.

The object of the present invention is to improve the carrier systems known from the prior art, in particular the ballistic-equipped carrier systems, in order to be able to remove them easily, reliably and quickly from a human upper body.

According to the invention, this object is achieved by claim 1.

The carrier system according to the invention has a front and a back part and means for attachment to a human upper body. Furthermore, a hip belt is provided, which is connectable via at least one support to the back part.

In a general embodiment of the invention, it does not depend on the concrete design of the support which connects the hip belt with the back part. However, two embodiments have proven to be particularly suitable. In both embodiments it can be provided that the support is designed to transmit weight forces from the back to the hip belt. In a first embodiment, the support may be formed on the back of the hip belt and may extend up the back along a human spine when the hip belt is properly worn, with the upper portion of the support facing away from the hip belt being connectable to the back portion. The support can be designed such that a pivoting movement is made possible relatively between the back and the hip belt about a perpendicular to the back part extending pivot axis. The support may be removably attached to the back member, for example, by screwing, clipping or by Velcro fasteners, which connect the support to the back part. The connection of the support with the back part can preferably be made in a form-fitting manner.

In a second embodiment of the support, this may be formed as a lateral support. The term "lateral" is to be understood as meaning that the support on the hip belt on the left and / or right of the body of a person is fastened to the hip belt when the generic support system is worn correctly. Preferably, two lateral supports are provided, which are each attached to the left and right of a human body on the hip belt.

According to the invention it is further provided that at least a portion of the means for attachment to a human upper body first attachment means and the back part second attachment means, wherein the first and the second attachment means together form a fastening device with attachment loops and recordings. The pictures are provided with slots. In a general embodiment of the invention, it initially does not matter whether the first fastening means are fastening loops or receptacles and the second fastening means are designed correspondingly. It is essential in a general embodiment of the invention only that the first and the second fastening means together form a fastening device with fastening loops and recordings, which according to the invention with the aid of an elongate fixing element, preferably a pintle or the like, are connected to one another. According to the invention, it is provided in a general embodiment that the attachment loops can be inserted or pushed through into the receptacles. Furthermore, an elongate fixing element is provided which can be guided by the ends inserted in the receptacles or by the ends of the attachment loops inserted through the receptacles. The slot, the fastening loops and the elongate fixing element are designed such that the fastening loops are no longer executable by the slot after passing through the elongated fixing element, wherein the elongate fixing element has a control unit to pull the fixing element out of the fastening loops.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the invention will be described in more detail, in which the first fastening means are designed as fastening loops and the second fastening means as recordings with slots. Insofar as this is not precluded by design, all features and exemplary embodiments described below, in particular also the description of the figures, be realized so that the first fastening means are designed as recordings with slots and the second fastening means as fastening loops. Furthermore, embodiments are shown below, in which the support is concretized as a lateral support. However, insofar as this is not necessarily excluded by design, it can also be any support, in particular a support, which has been described above according to the first embodiment. All embodiments, in particular the figure description, are therefore to be understood that the lateral supports can also be replaced by the supports according to the first embodiment.

The carrier system according to the invention comprises in a preferred embodiment, a front and a back part and means for attachment to a human upper body. The carrier system further comprises a hip belt, which is connectable via at least one lateral support with the back part. According to the invention it is provided that at least a part of the means for attachment to a human upper body has attachment loops and the back has slotted receptacles, wherein the attachment loops are introduced into the receptacles and wherein an elongated fixing member is provided, which is inserted through the inserted into the receptacles Ends of the fastening loops is feasible, and the slot, the fastening loops and the elongate fixing element are such that the fastening loops are no longer feasible after passing through the elongated fixing element through the slots, wherein the elongate fixing element comprises a control unit to the fixing of the To pull out attachment loops.

The inventor has recognized that the means for attachment to a human upper body are particularly advantageous connect the back of the carrier system and solve this, if this is a fastening system is selected, which is composed essentially of attachment loops, a slot with slots and an elongated fixing. The elongated fixing element may be a wire, in particular a pintle or a rope or a similar elongate element. Insofar as a "plug-in wire" is mentioned in the context of the invention, this also includes any wires and / or cables or similar elongated elements or should be considered as disclosed.

The term "attachment loops" is to be understood as meaning that a substantially closed material arrangement is provided into which the elongated fixing element can be inserted. The material arrangement can also have interruptions or openings, insofar as it is ensured that the elongate fixing element can not escape radially. For this purpose, the material arrangement can form a tube or tunnel section for receiving the elongate fixing element viewed in the axial direction.

The particular advantage of the solution according to the invention is that the means for attachment to a human upper body can be particularly easily separated from the back. This is particularly advantageous for military applications. The person who uses the carrier system can quickly and easily drop or discard it when needed or in an emergency. By simply pulling or removing the elongate fixing element (in particular the insertion wire) from the fastening loops, the barrier is removed which prevents the fastening loops from being able to be passed through the slot of the receptacles. That is, once the elongated fixing element has been removed, the attachment loops can be removed through the slot of the receptacles. The connection between the means for attachment to a human upper body and The back part is thus solved, so that the back part of the means for attachment to a human upper body drops.

Extraction of the elongated fixing element from the fastening loops can be achieved particularly simply by providing the elongate fixing element with a control panel or comprising a control panel. The control panel may be z. B. act to a protruding or protruding end of the elongated fixing. In this case, it can also be provided that the end of the elongate fixing element has a shape which the carrier of the carrier system can grip or grip particularly well in order to pull the elongated fixing element out of the fastening loops. It can be provided, for example, that the end of the elongate fixing element is formed as a loop. However, the control can also as any handle, z. B. as a ring, handle, lever or the like may be formed.

In the context of the invention it can be provided that one or more elongate fixing elements are provided, which are each guided by correspondingly associated fastening loops in order to fix or fix them in the receptacles. However, it can also be provided that only one fixing element is provided, which fixes fastening loops of at least two different means for attachment to a human upper body in the respectively associated receptacles or loosens the attachment loops therefrom. The at least two means may be, for example, a left shoulder strap, a right shoulder strap, a left side edge or a right side edge of a fastening belt. Insofar as a plurality of elongate fixing elements are provided, a control panel can be provided for each elongate fixing element. It is advantageous, however, that only one operating part is formed, which, if several elongate fixing elements are present, it makes it possible to pull these together from the attachment loops. This can be achieved, for example, by branching the elongate fixing element, for example in one embodiment as a plug-in wire. The elongate fixing element may have an end which is connected to the operating part and a plurality of ends produced by a branching (for example by clamping or the like), which are each guided by fastening loops. As a result, the guided through the attachment loops ends of the fixing can be pulled out by the operation of a control panel, preferably as possible simultaneously, so that all attached to the back part means for attachment to a human upper body are solved simultaneously.

It is advantageous if the means for attachment to a human upper body have at least one preferably above a human hip extending fastening strap and two extending over a human shoulder shoulder strap.

It has been found to be particularly suitable if the elongate fixing element can be released by an operating element, which connects both the shoulder straps and one end of the fastening strap to the back part. For this purpose, the elongate fixing element may optionally have a branch.

It is also advantageous if the back part comprises at least one substantially vertically extending carrier strip and the fastening strap is detachably connected to the carrier strip via the attachment loops and the elongate fixing element at at least one end facing the carrier strip.

The carrier strip may be an independent component that can be connected to the back part or a back plate of the back part or that is formed integrally with the back part or a back plate.

It is advantageous if the back part comprises a back plate extending essentially plane-parallel to a partial region of a human back, wherein receptacles are provided at the upper end of the back plate to detachably attach at least one shoulder strap provided with at least one fastening loop to the back plate by means of an elongate fixing element to fix.

Alternatively, the upper end of the back panel may also be provided with attachment loops to releasably secure at least one provided with at least one receptacle with slots shoulder strap by means of an elongate fixing member on the back plate. The exemplary embodiments described below, in particular also the description of the figures, are to be understood such that the receptacles and the attachment loops can also be arranged exactly the other way around on the shoulder strap or the back part.

The inventor has recognized that it is of particular advantage if the means for attachment to a human upper body are formed by preferably two shoulder straps and a fastening strap which preferably extends above a human hip, preferably in the abdominal region. This allows a good connection of the back to the back of the upper body and thus achieve a comfortable fit. Furthermore, it is advantageous if one, preferably both, shoulder straps and / or the fastening strap are fixed in respectively assigned receptacles of the back part or the carrier strip via the combination of the fastening loops and the elongated fixing element. It is basically conceivable that the Both shoulder straps and also the fastening belt in each case via independently formed elongated fixing elements, preferably plug wires, connectable to the receptacles or are detachable from these. However, it is advantageous if a pintle (or the like) binds both the fastening belt and the one or both shoulder straps to the back part or the carrier strip. The pintle can also branch and / or it can be attached via terminals more pieces of wire (or the like) to the pintle. Furthermore, it can be provided in the context of the inventive solution that the fastening belt is attached to both the back part facing ends via a combination of attachment loops and the pintle in receptacles of the back part or the support bar. For quick release of the carrier system, however, it is sufficient if the fastening strap is detachable at one end from the back part. The connection of the other, the back part facing fastening strap can be done arbitrarily.

Furthermore, it can be provided that both shoulder straps are designed such that they detach from the back part by removal of the insertion wire. However, it may also be sufficient here if only one shoulder strap has such a connection.

It may be advantageous if the fastening loop and the elongate fixing element, after the fastening loop is inserted into the receptacle, there form a so-called keder. In general, piping is to be understood as a thickening on the edge of a textile, which is inserted into a corresponding piping rail and held there due to the thickening. According to the invention, such a piping can be formed by the fastening loop or the fastening loops, after it has been inserted into the receptacle, through the elongate fixing element, preferably a pintle, is thickened so that they form a piping.

Preferably, the back part for this purpose have receptacles which are designed in the form of a piping rail or a Kederleiste. Preferably, the receptacles may be formed as a tubular element, for example with an at least approximately circular cross-section, and have a slot extending in the longitudinal direction of the tubular element. The attachment loops can be inserted either at an open end in the tubular receptacle or directly through the slot. After insertion of the attachment loops, the attachment loops are then fixed in the receptacle by the insertion of the elongate fixing element. For this purpose, the elongate fixing element is preferably introduced at a front end of the receptacle. Preferably, an elongated fixing member may be performed by both the attachment loops that tie the shoulder straps and the attachment loop or straps that tie one end of the attachment strap to the back piece. It may be advantageous if the elongated fixing element branches. This can be done in particular in one embodiment as a pigtail via terminals.

It is advantageous if the fastening belt at least on one of the carrier strip or the back part facing the end releasably connected to the fastening strap side part having the fastening loop or the attachment loops for connection to the carrier strip.

This solution has the advantage that the side part with the fastening loops attached thereto can remain connected to the back part via the elongate fixing element, preferably in the manner of a welt, even if the actual fastening strap is to be detached from the back part. An advantage this configuration is that different lengths attachment straps can be connected to the side part. Thus, the different anatomies of the persons who are to wear the carrier system, be taken into account. It is particularly advantageous if the side part can be connected to the fastening belt at different attachment points (based on its length). It is thus possible to tighten the fastening strap narrower or wider and thus to achieve optimal comfort, possibly adapted to the garments worn underneath.

For this purpose, it may be advantageous if the fastening strap and the side part each have at least one loop row and the loop row of the fastening strap can be connected to one another with the loop row of the side part via a strip-shaped connecting element. It is advantageous if the loops of the row of loops of the fastening strap are arranged in the vertical direction at a distance from each other. Further, it is advantageous if the loops of the loop row of the side part are also viewed in the vertical direction at a distance from each other. The loops of the fastening strap and the side part are preferably designed in such a way that the loops of a row of loops can be arranged in the intervals between the loops of the other row of loops, so that the strip-shaped connecting element, when this is inserted into the loops, preferably alternately one Loop of the fastening strap and a loop of the side part penetrates.

The strip-shaped connecting element may preferably be formed as a plastic strip which can be bent over at its end and is closed, for example via a hook-and-loop fastener, or fastened to the side part or the fastening belt.

The loop row of the fastening strap can be designed as a minor system.

It is advantageous if the fastening belt is formed by two side flank parts which are connectable in the front region of an upper body of the wearer, preferably in the region of the abdomen, directly or indirectly to one another and / or to the front part of the carrier system. It is particularly suitable if the front part of the carrier system has a hook-and-loop fastener and the fastening belt can be connected in the area of the front part of the carrier via the hook-and-loop fastener. The fastening belt can thus consist of two side flanks, which are each connected at one end to the back part and at the other end to the front part of the carrier system, preferably via the hook-and-loop fastener. It can also be provided that the two side edges are preferably connected to each other by means of a hook and loop fastener.

It is advantageous if the shoulder strap has a strap part which can be detachably connected to the shoulder strap at an end facing the back plate and which has the at least one fastening loop for attachment to the back plate. This embodiment has the advantage that the belt part, which is connected via the fastening loop and the elongate fixing element with the receptacle in the back plate (or generally on the back part), can remain there, even if the shoulder strap is to be detached. This may be advantageous to use a matched to the wearer of the carrier system shoulder strap.

It is advantageous if the hip belt has a quick release for opening and closing. A particularly suitable quick release is used for example in safety belts in aircraft. The quick release of the waist belt, preferably in the front area of a human Upper body, preferably centrally located, has the advantage that the hip belt can be solved quickly if necessary. That is, to drop the entire carrier system, it may be sufficient in a particularly advantageous manner when the hip belt is released and the elongated fixing element (preferably the pintle) is pulled. Thus, the entire support system including back and front part of the upper body of the wearer falls off.

It is advantageous if the support is designed as a lateral support and can be connected to the carrier strip of the back part.

The lateral support is preferably attached to a side part or laterally on the hip belt. The side part can be reinforced, for example by a steel or ceramic plate or an aramid insert. The term "lateral" is understood to mean that the lateral support is located on the left and / or right of the body of a person when the carrier system is carried by a human in the manner provided for this purpose.

In principle, the lateral support at each point of the back part, including attached to the back of other modules, which are to be regarded in this case as part of the back part to be attached. However, the inventor has recognized that an arrangement of the lateral support directly on the base member of the back part, preferably on the back plate, in particular on the carrier strip (which may be integrally formed with the back plate), is particularly suitable. On the one hand, this results in a particularly stable connection and a good support on the hip belt, whereby the loads to be supported can be intercepted particularly well. On the other hand, it is thereby possible, rear sections of the support system, for example, attachable to the back of backpack and / or a so-called electronic back, ie with a ejected housing, without the hip belt must also be solved. Only when the complete carrier system is to be removed, the hip belt is released.

It is also advantageous if the lateral support is infinitely or vertically adjustable in a grid attachable to the support bar. Due to the stepless or in a grid possible attachment of the lateral support on the back or the support bar, the support system can be quickly and easily adjusted to different sized people.

The connection of the lateral support on the carrier strip can be done for example by screwing, jamming or a snap connection or by other positive or non-positive connection elements.

It is advantageous if the lateral support is connectable to the carrier strip via a tongue and groove connection. Such a connection has been found to be particularly suitable, in particular to allow a continuous adjustment in the vertical direction.

It is also advantageous if the lateral support comprises a damping element.

The damping element may for example be designed as a spring element or comprise a spring element or an elastic element. The inventor has recognized that the formation of the lateral support with a damping element is particularly well suited to cushion the loads to be supported.

It is advantageous if the lateral support comprises a rod / tube combination, so that the relative movement that a person generates while walking between hip and upper body, resulting in a relative movement of the rod in the tube, wherein the rod / tube combination is such that a movement of the rod in the tube generates an electric current. For this purpose is on from the EP 1 994 841 B1 referenced solution. For the carrier system according to the invention, it is of course not necessary that the lateral support has a rod / tube combination, which is used for power generation. The rod / tube combination can also act only as a damper, optionally with the additional use of a spring element. However, an embodiment for power generation preferably offers, if the carrier system has a housing provided with electronic components, the so-called "electronic back". However, the energy generated may also be used for other electrical equipment and components, such as a ventilation device.

It is advantageous if the lateral support on the back and on the hip belt is arranged pivotably about two axes. It has been found to be particularly suitable if the connection of the lateral support on the back part via two hinges, wherein the axes of rotation are preferably perpendicular to each other. Furthermore, it has been found to be particularly suitable if the connection of the lateral support on the hip belt takes place in that the pivoting about an axis by means of a hinge. The pivoting about the other, preferably perpendicular axis can preferably be effected in that the lateral support has a plate with a bore and this bore can be pushed or plugged onto a bolt-like axis, so that the plate with the bore substantially extends radially to the pin axis and thus the plate can rotate about the pin axis.

An embodiment of the lateral support, each with two axes of rotation at the end has proven to be particularly robust and ensures the person carrying the carrier system an advantageous freedom of movement.

It is advantageous if the back part has coupling members for coupling a housing, in the interior of which electronic components are arranged, or a frame for carrying loads.

The fact that both a housing (or an "electronic back") and, alternatively, a frame for carrying loads can be coupled to the back part via coupling members, results in an advantageous modular construction.

It is particularly advantageous if the housing, in whose interior electronic components and / or electronic devices can be arranged, is positively connected directly to the back part. This results in a particularly stable and especially twist-proof connection. It is also advantageous if the housing has, at its end remote from the back part, coupling elements for coupling the frame for carrying loads. Preferably, in this case, a positive direct connection of the frame is provided at the back of the housing. It is advantageous in this case if the housing has coupling members which correspond to the coupling members on the rear side of the back part. This makes it possible to couple the frame either to the back of the case or to the back of the back piece.

It is advantageous if the coupling members are formed as pockets or receiving openings and the housing or the frame has projections, teeth or the like, which engage at least approximately positively in the pockets or receiving openings. It is advantageous in this case if the coupling elements extend in the region of the side edges on the rear side of the back part or in the region of the side edges of the rear side of the housing. Preferably, the pockets or the receptacles extend in a preferably vertically extending line on the vertically extending side edges of the rear side of the back part or the rear side of the housing.

It is advantageous if the projections or teeth, which are intended to engage in the pockets or receiving openings, are chamfered or chamfered or have another mechanical or realized by the shape of the projections or teeth insertion. This is of particular advantage in order to enable a quick and uncomplicated connection of the individual modules in practice.

It is advantageous if at least one side wall of the housing, which is to receive the electronic devices and / or components, from a first, preferably strip-like, and a second, also preferably strip-like side part is composed, wherein the side wall has passage openings for plugs and the like and wherein the passage openings are at least partially formed by the assembly of the two side parts.

Characterized in that the passage openings are formed by the connection or assembly of the first side part with the second side part, it is possible to increase the passage openings for carrying a particularly large connector or for replacing electronic components in that the two side parts are detached from each other , After performing the plug or the replacement of the components, the two side parts can be screwed together again.

In one embodiment of the invention may further be provided that the frame has lashing eyes, hooks, openings or the like, so that in particular loads can be easily arranged on the frame. For example, the loads can be to trade one or more backpacks and / or packagings.

It may be advantageous if the frame has a luggage cover. The luggage support may preferably extend substantially horizontally. On the luggage support loads can be placed advantageous.

According to the invention it can be provided that the housing and / or the frame, made of plastic, for example of polyamide, formed and optionally provided with corresponding reinforcing inserts.

A particular advantage is when the frame for carrying loads has receiving slots, wherein a packing container, preferably a backpack, is provided with loops, which are insertable into the receiving slots, wherein an elongated fixing element, preferably a pintle, through which in the receiving slots inserted ends of the loops is feasible, whereby the loops are no longer removable from the receiving slots after the passage of the elongate fixing element. This allows a particularly advantageous connection of a packing container, in particular a backpack. It may be provided that the packaging container or the backpack is fastened by means of the loops and the elongate fixing elements on all four sides of the frame in receiving slots. However, it may also be provided to attach the backpack only on two vertically extending side edges of the frame to the existing receiving slots there.

According to the invention it can be provided that, if necessary, the elongated fixing element, preferably the pintle, is pulled out of the inserted into the receiving slots ends of the loops, so that the loops can fall out of the receiving slots, resulting in the packing container or the backpack detached from the frame. If necessary, the packing container or the backpack can thus be dropped quickly and easily by a corresponding pulling movement on the pintle. For this purpose, the plug-in wire can be provided with a control unit or a handle (analogous to the embodiment already described).

It is advantageous if the housing or the frame on the back part or the frame on the housing via one or more locking elements or locks can be locked, wherein a closure member of the locking element by means of a remote release device is releasable. The locking elements can be self-closing, so that automatically takes place after docking of the housing or the frame on the back part or the frame to the housing, a lock. The locking elements may be, for example, so-called snap locks. The remote release device, preferably a cable, can actuate the closure member, for example by train or pressure, so that the locking element is opened. As a result, the housing or the frame of the back part or the frame of the housing, depending on how they are arranged, can be quickly separated if necessary. The person carrying the carrier system can thus drop the housing or the frame from the back part or the frame from the housing in an emergency. This represents an alternative or supplement to the possibility of throwing the carrier system completely or partially by pulling out the elongate fixing element.

By loosening the elongated fixing elements, which connect the shoulder strap and one or both ends of the fastening strap, the entire carrying system is dropped, thereby possibly losing the ballistic protection. In contrast, can be by loosening the locking element only the backpack or possibly also the electronic back (possibly including backpack) throw off, whereby the ballistic protection is maintained.

It is advantageous if in each case only one locking element per vertically extending side edge is provided for the connection of the housing or the frame with the back part or the frame with the housing. Preferably, the locking element is mounted in the vertical direction in the middle or in the upper third of the side or side edge of the housing or the frame or the back part.

It is advantageous if a ballistic equipment, preferably a ballistic plate, is arranged on the outside of the back plate facing a human back. The ballistic plate is preferably a hardballistic plate made of a known material, for example a SK4 plate.

Alternatively, a softballistic design of the front and / or back part is also suitable. Particularly suitable is the use of so-called composite materials.

It is advantageous if the back plate is provided with a textile or enveloped, wherein the textile preferably may have a camouflage print. The textile can for example be glued and / or sewn to the back plate. The textile surrounding the back plate or the back part can be designed such that it has a pocket for a hard or soft ballistic insert, in particular the ballistic plate. The ballistic plate can be permanently integrated or used only when needed and removed again. The ballistic plate may also be glued to the outside of the backplate facing the human back. The hardballistic plate can have a rigid, bullet-resistant training. The plate may be made of ceramic, preferably of a high performance ceramic, polymers, polyethylenes, metal or a combination of the aforementioned materials be formed. Particularly suitable for this purpose is boron carbide.

The hard-ballistic plates can, for example, have a thickness of 1 to 3 cm, preferably 1.5 cm, in particular in one embodiment as a SK4 plate.

In one embodiment of the invention can be provided that the adjacent to a human upper body parts of the support system are at least partially provided with ventilation channels through which air can preferably be pumped or sucked using a fan. Such channels are from the EP 2 016 843 A1 known. To generate the air flow (mechanical or electrical), the rod / tube combination can be used.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, in the context of the invention, the features top, bottom, side, back or front to understand an orientation or arrangement that requires that the carrier system according to the invention is correctly carried by a person, as shown in the Embodiments is shown.

Fig. 7 shows in an exploded view of the back part 2, which in the illustrated embodiment, a back plate 15 and two support strips 16 comprises (shown in FIG Fig. 7 only one carrier strip). The FIGS. 7 to 13 show an embodiment in which it is provided that the back part 2 of a back plate 15 and two separately formed therefrom carrier strips 16, which are attachable to vertically extending side edges of the back plate 15, composed. In the same way, however, the back plate 15 may already be integrally or integrally formed with a corresponding carrier strip 16. The back plate 15 is encased in a manner not shown by a textile or hereby provided, wherein the textile preferably has a pocket or a drawer. In the pocket or the drawer, a ballistic plate 17 can be arranged or inserted. The ballistic plate 17 is arranged on the human back facing outer side of the back plate 15. The ballistic plate 17 can also be glued to the back plate 15. In the exemplary embodiment it is provided that the carrier strips 16 only after the back plate 15 is covered with the textile, be pushed or plugged. The carrier strips 16 can be positively attached to the textile-clad side edges of the back plate 15 and preferably further secured there by screwing and / or gluing.

In the exemplary embodiment, it is provided that the carrier strip 16 both a rail 18 for connecting a lateral supports 6 and a receptacle 19 for introducing a subsequently closer in accordance with Fig. 16 and 17 has described attachment loop 20. Furthermore, the carrier strip 16 has coupling elements 21 which serve for coupling the housing 7 or the frame 8.

The FIGS. 11 to 13 show a base plate 22 of the housing 7 for receiving the electronic components, components or devices. It can be provided that the electronic components and devices are attached to the base plate 22. In terms of dimensions and shape, the base plate 22 preferably corresponds at least approximately to the back plate 15.

Fig. 13 Here, it is preferably provided that the cover 23 can be opened or preferably connected to a side edge via a hinge and thus swung open, so that the electronic components and components contained in the housing 7 accessible are. The cover 23 may also be arranged on the side wall of the housing 7 via a welt strip. In the embodiment, this is not shown in detail. The side wall of the housing 7, which connects the cover 23 with the base plate 22, is in the FIGS. 7 . 8th . 9 . 10 and partly in Fig. 11 and Fig. 12 shown. The two vertically extending side walls of the housing 7 are respectively formed in two parts by a first side part 24 and a second side part 25. The side parts 24, 25 are formed like a strip in the embodiment. The side parts 24 and 25 can be connected or plugged together, for example, by form-fitting interlocking links and then further secured by a screw. In the exemplary embodiment, the first side part 24 has projections or springs 26a, which correspond to grooves 26b of the second side part 25. For screwing the springs 26a in the grooves 26b holes 27 are provided. The first side part 24 has a groove 28 extending along the first side part 24, into which the base plate 22 can be inserted. Of course, other positive, non-positive or cohesive connections are possible for this purpose. The second side part 25 has a support 29 on which the cover 23 (see Fig. 13 ) can be placed or fastened. Again, any other constructive solutions for connecting the cover 23 to the second side part 25 are possible.

The cover 23 may represent the back wall of the carrier system when no frame 8 is used or when no - described below - water storage is used. The cover 23 is preferably designed as a step protection or designed, optionally in conjunction with the second side part 25, that a person stand on the cover 23 or can step on it, without the support system is damaged.

An advantage of the side wall of the housing 7 formed by the two side parts 24, 25 is that each of the two side parts 24, 25 can each form part of a passage opening 30. Ie. the passage openings 30 present in the side walls of the housing 7 can each be completely formed by connecting the first side part 24 to the second side part 25. This allows that when big plugs must be carried out, the side parts 24, 25 can be detached from each other, whereby the large plug performed and then the side parts 24, 25 can be connected to each other again by a screw. In the way, devices can also be introduced into the interior of the housing 7.

For connecting the side wall of the housing 7, in the embodiment of the first side part 24 on the support bar 16, the support bar 16 on the already mentioned coupling elements 21. In this case, a plurality of coupling elements 21 are provided, which extend along the longitudinal axis of the carrier strip 16. In the coupling elements 21, which are formed in the embodiment as pockets or as mounting holes, engage correspondingly complementarily formed projections or teeth 31 of the first side part 24, preferably at least approximately positively. In order to introduce the teeth 31 into the pockets 21 of the carrier strip 16, the teeth 31 may be bevelled or chamfered at least at a front edge.

In order to fix the teeth 31 in the pockets 21, a locking element 32 is provided in the embodiment. The locking element 32 includes a closure member 33, not shown in detail, which closes automatically when the teeth 31 are inserted into the pockets 21. It is envisaged that the closure member 32 locks the teeth in the pockets with a movement which is perpendicular to the insertion direction of the teeth 31 in the pockets 21. The pockets 21 and the teeth 31 have closure receptacles 34, in which the closure member 33, not shown, can engage. The locking element 32 can preferably be attached laterally to the carrier strip 16, for example by a screw connection. It is advantageous if the support bar 16 has only one locking element 32. Further, it is advantageous (not shown) when the closure member 33, if necessary by a Remote unlocking can be influenced so that the closure member 33 opens, whereby the first side part 24 drops from the carrier strip 16.

It is advantageous if on both sides of the back plate 15 each have a support bar 16 is provided and both carrier bars 16 are each connected to a side part 24 by plugging.

In a manner not shown, it is also possible that the frame 8 is attached directly to the carrier bars 16. For this purpose, the frame 8 can have corresponding teeth 31 (not shown) which engage in the pockets 21 in an analogous manner and are preferably held there by the locking element 32. The teeth 31 may be formed directly on the frame 8 or on both side edges running vertically or on a connectable to the frame bar or strips.

In the in the FIGS. 7 to 13 illustrated embodiment, it is provided that the frame 8 is attached to the second side part 25. For this purpose, the second side part 25 has pockets 21 which can correspond to the pockets 21 of the carrier strip 16. The connection of the frame 8 to the second side part 25 is analogous to the connection of the first side part 24 to the support bars 16 and can also by a locking element 32 (preferably provided with a remote unlocking) are secured.

Further details about the carrier strip 16, the first side part 24, the second side part 25 and the frame 8 and the back plate 15 result from the FIGS. 7 to 10 , The components are preferably made of plastic. However, it is also possible here a training from metal.

As can be seen from a synopsis of FIGS. 10 to 13 with the Figures 18 and 19 and in particular the schematic representation in the Figures 16 and 17 shows, the support bar 16 (which may be formed integrally with the back plate 15) has a receptacle 19 for connecting a fastening loop 20. The receptacle 19 is formed in the embodiment similar to a piping rail or Kederleiste. The receptacle 19 essentially represents a tube with a longitudinal slot 35. The receptacle 19 has a substantially circular to oval cross-section. In the receptacle 19, the fastening loop 20 (see Fig. 16 and 17 ) are introduced through the slot 35 or preferably at the front ends of the receptacles 19. The fastening loop 20, which is inserted into the receptacle 19 of the carrier strip 16, is attached in the exemplary embodiment to the fastening belt 4 or a side part 400 which can be connected to the fastening belt 4. By fastening loop 20 of the fastening belt 4 is attached to the back part 2 and in the embodiment of the support bar 16 by after insertion of the fastening loop 20 into the receptacle 19, an elongated fixing member 36, which is preferably a pintle, in the Recording or introduced into the recording end of the fastening loop is threaded. The slot 35, the attachment loop 20 and the pintle 36 are designed such that the attachment loop 20 is no longer feasible through the slot 35 after the insertion of the wire 36. Thus, the fastening belt 4 is securely and stably connected to the back part 2 or the carrier strip 16.

A removal of the fastening loop 20 from the receptacle 19 takes place in that the pintle 36 is pulled out of the mounting loop 20 and the receptacle 19 again. As a result, the fastening belt 4 drops from the carrier strip 16 and thus from the back part 2. To connect the fastening loop 20 to the support bar 16 and the back part 2 are also other Formations of the receptacle 19 possible, for example in the manner as in accordance with Fig. 6 is provided with respect to the connection of the backpack 10 to the frame 8.

In the exemplary embodiment, it is provided that the fastening belt 4 or the side part 400 has a large fastening loop 20. However, it is also possible here for two or more correspondingly smaller fastening loops 20 to be provided instead of a large fastening loop (relative to the vertical extent).

The means designated as an elongate fixing element 36 for fixing the fastening loop 20 in the receptacle 19 may preferably be formed as a rope, wire or other elongate fabric, in particular made of plastic or metal, preferably steel. Hereinafter, the elongated fixing member is referred to as a plug wire 36, but the invention is of course not limited thereto. The features described in the context of the invention can also be realized in conjunction with other embodiments of the elongate fixing element and should also be considered as disclosed in this regard.

In the exemplary embodiment it is provided that both side edges of the fastening belt 4 are attached by means of respective attachment loops 20 each to a support bar 16 in the manner described. In principle, however, it is sufficient if a side edge of the fastening belt 4 is attached accordingly. Already releasing one end of a side edge of the fastening belt 4 from the associated carrier strip 16 or the back part 2 causes the back part 2 to detach with the fastening belt 4 from the upper body.

As can be seen in particular from a presentation of FIGS. 16 to 19 shows, the fastening belt 4 and its side edge at least on one of the support bar 16 end facing a releasably connectable to the fastening belt 4 side part 400, which includes the attachment loops 20 for connection to the carrier strip 16. This is especially good Fig. 16 , The fastening belt 4 and the side part 400 each have at least one row of loops 4a and 400a for connection to each other. The loops of the loop row 4a and the loops of the loop row 400a are arranged such that the loops of one row of loops can be fitted into the spaces between the loops of the other row of loops, so that a common loop row 4a extending in the exemplary embodiment substantially in the vertical direction , 400a can be made. In the exemplary embodiment, a strip-shaped connecting element 37, preferably a plastic strip, which is preferably covered with textile, is pushed through this common row of loops 4a, 400a (see in particular FIG Fig. 16 ). The plastic strip 37 is designed such that it is longer than the loop row 4a, 400a, so that the protruding ends of the plastic strip 37 can be bent. The bent-over ends of the plastic strip 37 can preferably be closed by a hook-and-loop fastener. This results in a stable connection between the fastening belt 4 and the side part 400 of the fastening belt 4. The advantage of this construction is that the side part 400 can be connected to fastening belts 4 of different lengths without the fastening loop 20 having to be detached from the mounting 19. It is particularly advantageous if the fastening belt 4 has a plurality of mutually parallel rows of loops 4a (see in particular Fig. 16 ), so that the loop row 400a of the side part 400 can be connected to a suitably positioned loop row 4a (see the three arrows emanating from the plastic strip 37). As a result, the length of the fastening belt 4 or the length of the side flanks of the fastening belt 4 can be shortened or lengthened.

It is advantageous if the fastening strap 4 has a side part 400 at its two ends or on both side flanks.

The side part 400 thus serves as an adapter, via which the fastening belt 4 can be attached to the carrier strip 16. Of course, it is also possible to arrange the fastening belt 4 via its fastening loop 20 directly on the carrier strip 16. This is in Fig. 16 in principle, a fastening loop 20 is shown on the fastening belt 4. However, it is preferable and provided in the exemplary embodiment so that the fastening belt 4 is connected to the side part 400 via the row of loops 4a, 400a. The connection between the fastening belt 4 and the carrier strip 16 then takes place in that the side part 400 is inserted with its fastening loop 20 in the receptacle 19 of the carrier strip 16. In this case, the fastening loop 20 of the fastening belt 4 has no function, this could therefore be omitted. The over the side part 400 projecting end of the fastening belt 4 can be loosely inserted or inserted between the back part 2 and the back of the upper body of the person who wears the carrier system.

As further from the FIGS. 7 to 15 shows, the back plate 15 in an upper end portion receptacles 190 which serve to releasably attached to the shoulder strap 3 attachment loops 20 by means of an elongated fixing element 36, preferably in turn a pintle 36, to be connected to the back plate 15. The receptacles 190 are configured substantially analogously to the receiving slots 11, which already with respect to the in Fig. 6 illustrated embodiment of the frame 8 have been described. For this purpose, the fastening loops 20 are pushed through the receptacles 190 and then prevented by the plug-in wire 36 from leaving the receptacles 190 again counter to the insertion direction. From The advantage here is when the pintle 36, which holds the attachment loops 20 of the shoulder strap 3 in the receptacles 190, is identical to the pintle 36, which is threaded at least into a receptacle 19 of a support bar 16. As a result, by pulling a plug-in wire 36, both the connection of the carrier strips 16 to the fastening belt 4 and the connection between the back part 2 or the back plate 15 and the shoulder strap 3 can be achieved.

In the exemplary embodiment, it is provided that both shoulder straps 3 are connected to the receptacles 190 via the attachment loops 20. In principle, however, it may be sufficient if only one shoulder strap 3 is connected accordingly. Preferably, this is the shoulder strap 3, which is arranged on the side of a human upper body, on which the fastening belt 4 is detachably connected to the carrier strip 16 via corresponding attachment loops 20.

The Figures 14 and 15 show a view of the upper body facing away from the inside (back) of the back plate 15. Here are from the outside (front) of the back plate 15 coming through the receiving slots 190 two attachment loops 20 per shoulder strap 3 inserted and secured by the pintle 36. In this case, more than two attachment loops 20 or only one attachment loops 20 per shoulder strap 3 can be provided.

As it turned out Fig. 14 results, it can be provided that the pintle 36 branches at its end facing the attachment loops 20 end. It can be provided that the branch is made by means of a clamp 40 or a similar tool, so that the pintle 36 has two (or more) ends, each fixing the attachment loops 20 of a shoulder strap 3. In principle, it is also possible for the plug wire 36 to face the attachment loops 20 at its end End is not branched, so has only one end. Thereby, when the pintle 36 is pulled out, first a shoulder strap 3 and then the second shoulder strap 3 are released. By branching the plug wire 36 at its end facing the fastening loops 20, each shoulder strap 3 can be assigned its own end piece. As a result, it is possible to detach both shoulder straps 3 by pulling out the insertion wire 36, preferably approximately simultaneously.

It is advantageous if the plug-in wire 36 is actuated by a control unit 39 or pulled out of the attachment loops 20. In this case, the operating part 39 can preferably be arranged such that a person carrying the carrier system can reach the operating part 39 well. For this purpose, the operating part 39 is preferably arranged on the top side or the front side of a human upper body when the carrier system is worn correctly.

By the optional branching of the ends of the insert wire 36 can be achieved that both shoulder straps 3 are solved by pressing the control panel 39. The pull-out by the control panel 39 peg 36 can also be performed by one or both receptacles 19 of the support bars 16 so that can be pulled by actuation of the control element 39 of the pintle 36 and the receptacles 19 of the support bars 16. The pintle 36 may this have an appropriate number of branches.

Alternatively it can also be provided that the pintle 36, which is inserted into a receptacle 19 or in both receptacles 19, is released via a separate control panel 19, in this case, the pintle 36 is formed independently of the pintle, which dissolves the shoulder straps , Possibly can also be provided individually for each shoulder strap or carrier strip a pintle.

In the exemplary embodiment, the shoulder strap 3 is not directly connected to the back plate 15. As can be seen in particular from the FIGS. 1 and 15 The shoulder strap 3 comprises at its end facing the back plate 15 a strap part 300 which can be detachably connected to the shoulder strap 3 and which has the at least one attachment loop 20 for attachment to the back plate 15 or for insertion into the receptacle 190. The connection between the belt part 300 and the shoulder strap 3 can take place in the usual way, for example via a metal buckle or the like (see Fig. 15 ).

Fig. 14 shows an advantageous way to protect the combination of the attachment loops 20 and the pigtails 36. For this purpose, the textile, which surrounds the back plate 15, a flap or a tab, which can preferably be fixed via a Velcro connection so that the combination of the attachment loops 20 and the plug wires 36 is disposed under the flap or tab.

As can be seen from a synopsis of FIGS. 1 to 4 . 7 to 12 and 17 to 19 results, the carrier strip 16 has a rail 18 for connecting the lateral supports 6. It is provided that in each case a lateral support 6 is attached to a support bar 16 and its rail 18. As a result, the lateral support 6 is connected to the back plate 15 or the back part 2.

The lateral support 6 can be connected vertically or steplessly in a vertical direction to the carrier strip 16 or its rail 18 in a vertical direction. If a grid is provided, the receiving bores of the grid can be arranged vertically offset at short intervals. In the mounting holes For example, screws of the lateral support 6 can be screwed in. In the in the FIGS. 7 to 13 illustrated embodiment is provided in a manner not shown that the lateral support 6 by a clamping or snap closure at any point of the rail 18 of the support bar 16 is positively or positively fixed.

In the embodiment, it is further provided that the lateral support 6 is connected to the associated carrier strip 16 via a tongue and groove connection.

The lateral support 6 essentially comprises a tube 60 and a rod 61 engaging in the tube 60. In a manner not shown a damping system is integrated, which can be realized for example via a spring. The inventor has recognized that a lateral support 6 consisting essentially only of a tube 60 and a rod 61 is particularly suitable for giving the wearer of the support system an advantageous freedom of movement. The design of lateral supports that engage at more than two points, has not been proven in terms of freedom of movement of the wearer. The inventor has recognized that it is advantageous if the lateral support acts only at two points, namely on the hip belt 5 and on the back part 2.

In the exemplary embodiment it can be provided that the lateral support 6 with the illustrated rod / tube combination 60, 61 is designed so that the relative movement that a person generates during walking between the hip and the upper body leads to a relative movement of the rod 61 in FIG Tube 60 leads, wherein the rod / tube combination 60, 61 is such that a movement of the rod 61 in the tube 60 generates an electric current. This is on the EP 1 994 841 B1 directed. Of course, the arrangement of the rod 61 and the tube 60 can also be reversed.
