ABSTRACT:
A back pack consists of a wire frame and belt and shoulder harnesses attached thereto. The frame is made solely from solid drawn wire members and consists of a wire perimeter frame with a wire grid extending between the perimeter frame sides. Preferably the perimeter frame is two closely spaced parallel wires, while the grid is two pluralities of parallel wires at right angles to one another and fastened to one another, e.g. by welding or adhesive, wherever they cross and touch. The perimeter slot formed by the spaced wires is subdivided into a plurality of slot portions. The harnesses are fastened to the frame by belts with buckles that can only be passed through the slots in edgewise attitude. A pack is fastened by headed pins the shanks only of which can pass through the slot portions, the pins shanks passing through grometted holes in the pack edges and being retained by a pin passing through a hole in the shank. In another preferred construction vertically extending frame members also comprise two closely spaced parallel wires; with such a construction all of the wires can be of the same diameter. Also it is preferred that the belt and shoulder harnesses tension the frame transversely, thereby adding to its rigidity under load without increase in wire diameter.
