Abstract: There is disclosed a harness for breathing apparatus, the harness arranged to support a plurality of cylinders of breathable gas side-by-side. The harness comprises a plurality of longitudinally extending cylinder channels arranged side-by-side, each cylinder channel having a rear wall and open at least partially along its length and arranged to accommodate a cylinder. Adjacent cylinder channels are laterally separated by a longitudinally extending channel side wall that in use is disposed between adjacent cylinders.

Abstract: There is disclosed a harness for breathing apparatus which is arranged to support a plurality of cylinders of breathable gas side-by-side and is arranged to be worn on the back of a wearer. The harness comprises upper and lower longitudinally spaced housings coupled together by a longitudinally extending back member. The upper and lower housings are arranged to retain upper and lower portions of each cylinder respectively.

Abstract: A harness for breathing apparatus, comprising a structural support member 10 having a front for accommodating a gas cylinder and a rear for facing the back of a wearer, and left and right sides. Left and right shoulder straps 110, 120 are disposed towards the left and right sides of the structural support member respectively, and each shoulder strap has a first end attached to an upper portion of the structural support member and a second end attached to a lower portion of the structural support member. A plurality of flexible conduits 140, 150 extend from a lower portion of the structural support member along the structural support member, each to a position on either the left or right shoulder strap. Left and right guide channels 30, 32 extend longitudinally along the structural support member along left and right sides respectively, for accommodating the flexible conduits.
