ABSTRACT:
A hipbelt for backpacks that is more comfortable and reduces fatigue by bridging across muscles and nerves in the gluteal region. The embodiment shown features a rigid crosspiece that prevents an attached taut belt or foam pad cushion from contacting the user in the lateral areas of the gluteal region. It only allows the cushion to contact the user in the central area of the gluteal region. A backpack frame connects to the crosspiece at the distal ends of the crosspiece. The connection at the backpack frame/hipbelt interface is a pivoting one.
