Abstract

See full text

A backpack including a flexible hip belt assembly is provided. The backpack may include a frame assembly defining a lower portion, a hip belt including a central portion and a lower portion with opposing first and second arms extending from the central portion. The lower portion of the hip belt and the lower portion of the frame assembly may be securely coupled together to support a substantially vertical load. A resilient member may couple the hip belt to the frame assembly. The resilient member may expand or contract as the hip belt and frame assembly move relative to one another to reduce the forces applied to the hip belt by the non-vertical movement of the frame assembly.
