Benefits of technology

[0006]The invention is a device which re-positions these belt accessories so that they are slightly further away from the police officer's body, and therefore, reduce or eliminate the wear from these belt accessories on the officer's shirt. It also provides better access to these accessories. Besides police officers, others can benefit from the device. Anyone who carries items on a belt can use the device to provide better access to the accessories and to provide less friction on his or her clothing, such as electricians, linemen, technicians, and others.
[0009]When assembled as described above, the top portion of an accessory such as a flashlight in the flashlight carrier is positioned at a further distance from the user's body, or at an angle that reduces the wear on the user's shirt.

Problems solved by technology

The problem is that some of these belt accessories extend up above the belt and rub against the officer's shirt.
Some of these accessories are somewhat abrasive and quickly wear a hole in the officer's shirt.
When this happens, the officer has to buy a new shirt, and that becomes expensive.

Abstract

Presented is a belt attachment on which may be mounted accessories that would normally be mounted in the waist belt. These can include hand cuffs, hand tools, radio, handgun holster, taser, meters, flashlights, and other items. The belt attachment has a passage for the waist belt, and a passage for attachment of the accessories, with the two passages perpendicular to each other.
