Abstract

A jumpable pack having interacting harness attachment loops and connection loops; a pair of release loops secured directly to said pack, such that each release loop interacts directly with a corresponding connection loop, wherein each release loop is at least partially disposed within a corresponding connection loop, and wherein said corresponding one of said connection loops is at least partially disposed within a corresponding harness attachment loop; a drop line attachment loop secured directly to a portion of said pack; a pair of first straps releasably secured to a portion of said pack; a pair of second straps secured to a side portion of said pack; a pair of second strap attachment segments, wherein each second strap attachment segment is releasably attached or coupled to each second strap; and a single point release assembly that includes a release line attached to a handle portion.

Claims (37)

1. A jumpable pack, comprising:

(a) a pack;

(c) a pair of connection loops, wherein said connection loops are secured, at spaced apart locations, directly to a portion of said pack, such that each harness attachment loop interacts directly with a corresponding connection loop;

(d) a pair of release loops, wherein said release loops are secured, at spaced apart locations, directly to a portion of said pack, such that each release loop interacts directly with a corresponding connection loop, wherein each of said release loops is positioned so as to be at least partially disposed within a corresponding one of said connection loops, and wherein said corresponding one of said connection loops is positioned so as to be at least partially disposed within a corresponding one of said harness attachment loops;

(e) a drop line attachment loop, wherein said drop line attachment loop is secured directly to a portion of said pack;

(f) a pair of first straps releasably secured to a portion of said pack;

(g) a pair of second straps, wherein each second strap is secured to a side portion of said pack;

(h) a pair of second strap attachment segments, wherein each second strap attachment segment is releasably attached or coupled to each second strap; and

(i) a single point release assembly, wherein said single point release assembly includes a release line attached to a handle portion.

6. The jumpable pack of claim 1 , wherein at least one of said second strap attachment segments is releasably secured to one of said release loops when at least a portion of said corresponding connection loop is passed through a portion of said harness attachment loop, at least a portion of said release loop is passed through a portion of said corresponding connection loop that extends through said harness attachment loop and at least a portion of said release loop that extends through said corresponding connection loop is passed through an aperture formed proximate an end of said second strap attachment segment, and at least a portion of said release line is passed through a portion of said release loop that extends through said aperture of said second strap attachment segment.

7. The jumpable pack of claim 1 , further comprising a flap that can be secured over at least a portion of said pack to cover at least some of said harness attachment loops, said connection loops, said release loops, and said drop line attachment loop.
