ABSTRACT:
This invention is a device that, in effect, extends the pelvic bones to support the load-bearing of a person or to carry other loads applied to the suprapelvic structure and therefore to reduce forces resultant on the lumbosacral area by transmitting part of the load through the device to the pelvic and infrapelvic structures and then to the floor. A heavy belt is shown around a person's waist which supports a pair of brace or support members mounted thereon. Each brace or support member is shown positioned at the person's side so as to be in operative relation with the pelvic girdle. Each of the brace or support members serves as a rest for the adjacent elbow of a person when a weight is being lifted or carried by the hands.
