Abstract:
1. A carrier system comprising: an elongated planar member to be worn by an animate bearer such as a human being having an outside surface facing away from the bearer's body and an inside surface facing toward the body of the bearer, at least one loop attached to the outside surface of the member, wherein the loop comprises two ends and a middle section between the two ends, the ends of the loop are spaced apart along the planar member and attached to the outside surface of the planar member and the middle section is not attached to the outside surface of the planar member, whereby the tab may be received between the loop and the outside surface of the planar member when the sleeve is folded over the member for attachment of the carrier to the member, at least one carrier for an article for detachable connection to the member comprising a body and a sleeve having a first end attached to the body of the carrier and a second end with means for detachable attachment to the body of the carrier, the first end and the second end of the sleeve being spaced apart at their respective places of attachment to the body of the carrier so that the second end of the sleeve can be folded over the member and attached to the body of the carrier, and further comprising a tab made of stiff material having a first end attached to the carrier at or near the junction of the first end of the sleeve to the carrier and a second end remaining unattached, the tab having an axis generally aligned with the sleeve, the second end of the tab being capable of being inserted through the at least one loop when the sleeve is folded over the member for attachment of the carrier to the member and thereby fixing the carrier with respect to the member so that the carrier substantially may not be slid along the member whereas if the tab is not inserted into the at least one loop when the sleeve is folded over the member the carrier is not substantially fixed with respect to the member and may be slid along the member.
