Abstract
A reconfigurable sling assembly. The sling assembly is configured to attach to a separate belt assembly worn around a user's waist. The medial portions of the sling assembly can be selectively attached to the belt assembly. The sling assembly includes a strap for adjustably securing the user's upper arm in a position adjacent to the torso. The sling has a conventional loop arrangement for encircling and securing the lower arm. However, the loop arrangement can be placed in one of two states. In a closed state, the loop arrangement secures the lower arm against the belt assembly and inhibits any significant motion of the lower arm. However, in an open state of the loop arrangement, the lower arm is released from the sling and is free to move. In the open state the upper arm is preferably still restrained.
