ABSTRACT:
This device is noteworthy in that it comprises two elements of positional control and adjustment made using manual remote controls that are independent of one another and that allow the position of a back frame to be adjusted with respect to a carrying harness. The first element allows the back frame to be raised with respect to the harness and the second element allows the back frame to be lowered with respect to the harness. The back frame is designed to receive an endless belt arranged in its median longitudinal plane. The belt is secured by a strand to the carrying harness allowing the back frame to move relative to the harness via the positional control and adjustment elements. A locking mechanism tensioned by the second control element acts and locks the endless belt in position or releases it according to the desired phases of movement. The second control element includes a strap, one end of which is secured to the endless belt and to the harness and the other end of which is designed to form a control handle. The strap passes over, bears on and actuates the locking mechanism.
