Abstract

A weight displacing knee protector pad having a main body comprised of a piece of foam or the like covered with a protective coating such as fabric. The foam has a top and a bottom and a front and a back and two sides. The top has a contoured channel running longitudinally through the center that conforms to the shape of the lower leg. The foam is enclosed in a cover of heavy duty fabric material. A substantially rigid material with a nonslip surface is fastened to the padding and the cover on the bottom. The rigid material extends past the front edge of the foam just past the knee. The foam provides support to the lower leg but stops before the knee. The rigid bottom means displaces the weight which would usually be applied to the knee, back to the lower leg while providing support and balance when leaning forward. Affixed to each side of weight displacing knee protector pad for attaching it to the lower leg are two strapping means comprised of elastic or the like.
