An articulated equipment support includes a pair of elongated support
bars, arranged in fixed, spaced-apart relationship, and having their
opposite ends joined respectively by a top cross rod and a bottom cross
rod. Pivot pins join the opposite ends of the rods to the respective
cross bars permitting pivotal, lateral movement of the support bars in
unison so that a variety of geometric configurations such as a
parallelogram or the like may be achieved. The top cross rod includes an
end projection having a bearing surface for rotatably mounting a double
C-clamp with an outwardly projecting flange terminating with a bearing
for rotatably supporting an equipment platform. An adjustable lock is
carried on the platform for releasably securing equipment thereto and a
shoulder strap is provided having opposite ends attached to the bottom
cross bar and an adjustable mid-section trained across or about the torso
of the user.
