Carrying device for a cartable item providing single to dual-shoulder support transitioning

A carrying device adapted to enable the carrying of a cartable item, said carrying device comprising:

• a primary shoulder area comprising a primary shoulder frame, said primary shoulder area designed to be initially positioned on a first shoulder of a user to support a cartable item;
• a secondary shoulder area complimentary to said primary shoulder area and adapted to be electively positioned on the second shoulder of said user, said secondary shoulder area comprising a secondary shoulder frame;
• a shoulder bridge connecting said primary shoulder area with said secondary shoulder area;
• a transitioning arm functioning to effectuate, in a single, efficient motion, the engagement, by said secondary shoulder frame, of a second shoulder of said user by transitioning said secondary shoulder frame from a first latent and inactive, off-shoulder position to a second active, carrying support position, thus effectuating single to dual-shoulder carrying support transitioning of said carrying device;
• an adjustment area comprising an adjustment assembly for selectively adjusting said primary shoulder area relative to said secondary shoulder area and body of said user;
• a dorsal support strap releasably coupled to said primary and secondary shoulder frames at respective anchoring points, said dorsal support strap adapted to couple said carrying device to a first attachment point on said cartable item;
• and
• a lateral support strap releasably coupled to said transitioning arm at an anchoring point, said lateral support strap adapted to couple said carrying device to a second attachment point located on said cartable item.

A carrying device comprising:

• means for engaging a first and, electively, a second shoulder of a user, said means comprising a rigid primary shoulder frame and a rigid secondary shoulder frame, respectively, each shoulder frame having a substantially horizontal dorsal segment integrally formed with a substantially vertical anterior segment;
• a transitioning arm that, upon actuation, causes said means for engaging to engage said second shoulder of said user in a single, efficient motion;
• an adjustment assembly operable with said means for engaging, that functions to adjust said golf bag carrying device to a desired ergonomic configuration, said attachment assembly comprising:
• a coupling attached to one of said primary and secondary shoulder frames;
• an insert member also attached to one of said primary and secondary shoulder frames opposite said coupling, said insert member slidably and rotatably mounted within said coupling;
• means for locking said insert member in a set position within said coupling, wherein said golf bag carrying device may be precisely adjusted to the desired preference of said user;
• and
• a support strap assembly for attaching said carrying device to a cartable item.
