Abstract
A cylinder back plate includes a frame memberand a cylinder clampconnected to the frame memberby means of a pivot. The cylinder clampcomprises a band of rigid or semi-rigid material. The cylinder clamphas a retaining position with respect to the frame member, wherein the cylinder clamp extends substantially perpendicularly to the plane of the frame member. The frame memberlies parallel to a back plate of the harness or is constituted by the back plate of the harness. Thus, when the cylinder clampis in the retaining position a cylinder can be retained securely to the frame member and sliding of the cylinder relative to the frame member or back plate can be prevented. When it is desired to attach a new cylinder to the harness, the cylinder clampcan be pivoted into a loading position.
