ABSTRACT:
An arm brace, when positioned in the underarm intermediate a user's upper arm and the side of the user's torso, assists in the carrying of heavy objects at shoulder level. The arm brace includes two body contoured surfaces, one for receiving the upper arm and another for contacting the torso, that are hingedly attached to one another. An adjustable brace member or prop, which is adjustable at both ends, is used to fix the angle between these two surfaces at the desired value. The brace is held to the upper arm by a strap attached to the upper arm receiving surface. The arm brace allows a user to carry heavy loads without fatigue, discomfort, and with reduced risk of injury.
