Abstract

Hoisting harness for persons, where the lifting action takes place by a harness consisting of a seat-piece placed between the person's legs, to which seat-piece a rear-piece is connected, which runs against the person's back and further consists of a front piece which runs against the chest. The front-piece and the rear-piece in their free ends have loops to be applied to a lift hanger. In order to avoid that the harness shall not be too tight across the chest during the lifting action and that the harness is adaptable to the size of the person's body, the front-piece and the rear-piece are connected by two connecting bands each band passing one side of the body, whereby the length of the connecting bands between the front-piece and the rear-piece is adjustable.
