ABSTRACT:
To provide a harness device which has the effect of "settling" the heavy equipment driver's torso by counteracting the vibrational shock transmitted through muscle and fat masses in this area, thereby reducing soreness and fatigue. Said device consists of a two shoulder straps 2, which are traversed by chest strap 4, upper abdominal strap 6 in front and lower abdominal strap 8 in the front, and upper back strap 10 and lower back strap 12 at the rear (FIG. 1). Chest strap 4 has upper buckle 14 mounted at each terminal end which interconnect with the terminal ends of upper back strap 10. The terminal ends of upper abdominal strap 6 and lower abdominal strap 8 merge on each side and terminate with lower buckles 16, which interconnect to the terminal ends of lower back strap 12. The wearer lowers the harness over the head so that shoulder straps 2 rest over the shoulders; upper buckles 14 and the terminal ends of upper back straps 10 are connected together, and lower buckles 16 and the terminal ends of lower back strap 12 are connected together (FIG. 2).
