Embodiment Construction

[0028]The present invention relates to an improved harness for supporting and assisting the body during lifting, kneeling, bending and walking. More specifically, the strap (also referred to in each case as the device in this specification) includes a single-point torque adjustment mechanical assembly with an adjustable hinge and an elastic mechanism, wherein when the user changes posture from a neutral position, the elastic mechanism Stores potential energy and assists in returning the body to a neutral position.

[0029] In the present invention, "neutral position" may be a posture in which the joints are not bent and the spine and legs are aligned without twisting. The words "load", "torque" and "assist torque" are used interchangeably and have similar meanings.

[0030] In the present invention, an "elastic mechanism" may be an object capable of rebounding or returning to its original shape after being bent, stretched or compressed. Elastic mechanisms may include springs...

Abstract

A mechanical assembly for single point torque adjustment, an apparatus and a method of use of an improved belt for body support and for assisting body during musculoskeletal activities like heavy lifting, kneeling, bending and walking are provided. The belt employs the single point torque adjusting mechanical assembly with an adjustable hinge (104) along with resilient means (105, 105') which stores potential energy when the user alters from a neutral position and may help the body to return to the neutral position. The belt employs structure to share and direct load from head, neck, and back to waist and ground. The apparatus may prevent the user from acquiring spondylitis, kyphosis or osteoporosis. The apparatus may be used for users who are subjected to frequent muscular work like bending us and down while carrying heavy loads, sitting too long, walking and the like.
