Description
Forest fire backpack is used by professional firefighters and volunteers for storage and transportation of firefighting equipment.
Device configuration:
A backpack is designed to help fire brigades carry hoses and other heavy loads such as motor pumps, water tanks and other elements needed to extinguish wildland fires. The ergonomic design, which is inspired by the mountain backpack load system, and padded harness make carrying heavy items comfortable.
The backpack can accommodate up to four hose rolls, as well as a complete range of related equipment: hose junctions, adapters, nozzles, etc. It has one large internal compartment, divided in half by a plastic panel with straps for securing the hoses. The plastic panel is removable, allowing the entire internal compartment to be used for other gear (ropes, special clothing, etc.). Each of the two sections of the backpack is equipped with straps for securing equipment. On the outside of the backpack, there are straps for securing hose junctions and nozzles, as well as a large zippered pocket for storing additional gear. Two reflective strips are sewn onto the pocket for visibility.
