Abstract
A hydration backpack includes a main body, a storage compartment, a pair of shoulder straps, a bladder, a hydration tube, a first longitudinal elongated metallic element, and a second longitudinal elongated metallic element. The bladder is disposed in the storage compartment of the main body and is configured to retain liquid. The hydration tube includes a proximal end coupled to the bladder and a distal end providing liquid to a user on demand. The first longitudinal elongated metallic element is disposed on one shoulder strap. The second longitudinal elongated metallic element is disposed on the hydration tube. The first and second longitudinal elongated metallic elements are configured to connect by gravitational and magnetic forces and form an automatic hydration tube return system.
