A device for load bearing support with a hip belt with an inner side for application in contact on the body of a person, and an outer side, with a first end and a second end which are connectable with one another by means of a closure element, wherein the hip belt comprises a back element for application in contact on a section of the back of the person, and wherein on the back element a first hip belt section is disposed, wherein on the outer side of the first hip belt section at least one, outwardly projecting first deposition element or elements is or are disposed at such distance from the back element that in condition of application in contact on the body of the person it is or they are disposed laterally on the body of the person.
1. A device for load bearing support, comprising:
a hip belt comprising:
an inner side that contacts a body of a person when the hip belt is worn by the person;
an outer side;
a first end;
a second end, wherein the first end and second end releasably connect with one another;
a back support that contacts a section of a back of the person;
a first hip belt section disposed on the back support;
at least one outwardly projecting deposition element disposed on an outer side of the first hip belt section and at a distance from the back support such that after the hip belt is placed in contact with the body of the person, the at least one outwardly projecting deposition element is disposed laterally on the body of the person;
a support belt disposed between an upper section of the back support and the first hip belt section, wherein the support belt has an adjustable length, wherein the support belt is guided with a support belt free end through a loop disposed on the back support, wherein the support belt free end is fixable in different positions on a securement section of the support belt.
2. The device as in claim 1 , further comprising zipper that releasably connects the first end and second end with one another.
3. The device as in claim 1 , wherein a width of the hip belt is adjustable.
4. The device as in claim 1 , wherein the back support has a greater height than the other parts of the hip belt.
5. The device as in claim 1 , further comprising:
a second hip belt section disposed on the back support; and
at least one additional outwardly projecting deposition element disposed on an outer side of the second hip belt section and at a distance from the back support such that after the hip belt is placed in contact with the body of the person, the at least one additional outwardly projecting deposition element is disposed laterally on the body of the person and opposing the at least one additional outwardly projecting deposition element.
6. The device as in claim 5 , wherein the at least one outwardly projecting deposition element of the first hip belt section is detachably disposed on the first hip belt section and the at least one additional outwardly projecting deposition element of the second hip belt section is detachably disposed on the second hip belt section.
7. The device as in claim 5 , wherein the at least one outwardly projecting deposition element and the at least one additional outwardly projecting deposition element are hingeable with a hook into a corresponding recess on the first hip belt section and/or the second belt section.
8. The device as in claim 5 , wherein the at least one outwardly projecting deposition element and the at least one additional outwardly projecting deposition element are securable on the first hip belt section and/or the second hip belt section with a dovetail guide.
9. The device as in claim 5 , wherein the first hip belt section and the second hip belt section are guided with a respective free end through a loop disposed on the back support, wherein the respective free end is fixable in different positions on a securement section of the first hip belt section with a hook-and-loop fastener.
10. The device as in claim 5 , further comprising an upper back support, two shoulder straps, and two leg straps disposed detachably on the hip belt.
11. The device as in claim 5 , wherein the support belt is disposed between an upper section of the back support and each of the first hip belt section and the second hip belt section.
12. The device as in claim 5 , wherein the at least one outwardly projecting deposition element and the at least one additional outwardly projecting deposition element comprise a rigid foam material.
13. The device as in claim 12 , wherein the rigid foam material has a hardness of more than 55 Shore.
14. The device as in claim 5 , wherein the first hip belt section is detachably disposed on the back support.
15. The device as in claim 14 , wherein the second hip belt section is detachably disposed on the back support.
