ABSTRACT:
A frame structure for carrying a drum or other object in front of a person has a front support member engaging two substantially parallel side support members extending generally horizontally along the waist of a person, and is supported by the hips of a person. A back member, attached to the side support members, engages the back thoracic region of a wearer and provides a counteracting force to keep a drum or other carried article in a desired position. The back member includes a pair of telescoping lengthwise adjustable back support members terminating in a hinge point at a back plate. The back plate is provided with arcuate slots through which attaching bolts engage a flanged member of each of the back support members. This arrangement allows the angle between the two back support members to be adjusted in order to adjust the distance between the side members along the back of the person. The width of the frame may also be adjusted along the front of the person by adjustment of overlapping angle plates of the front support member. The side support members are slidably engaged with the front and back members to allow for adjustment in the front to back direction of the frame, thereby effectively changing the distance between the hip supported fulcrum and the front and back members. The frame is supported on the hips by means of a belt and pad assembly which removably attaches to the frame.
