PCT No. PCT/AT86/00025 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 24, 1987 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 24, 1987 PCT Filed Mar. 28, 1986 PCT Pub. No. WO87/00013 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 15, 1987.A back-pack frame (1) intended for moving loads has longitudinal beams (3, 4) and cross beams (10, 13), carrying straps, load-securing elements, and coupling elements (17, 18) that make it possible to arrange two such back-pack frames (1) end-to-end, so as to form a platform that can be either carried or pulled along the ground. Four longitudinal beams (3, 4) are arranged so as to correspond approximately to the edges of a prism having a trapezoidal base, the longitudinal beams (3) being arranged at a greater distance from each other on the carrier side. The two load-side longitudinal beams (4) define a sliding plane, and on the two narrow sides of the back-pack frame (1) there is at least one holding element (6) for a shackle (7) that protrudes beyond the load-side longitudinal beams (4). On each carrier-side longitudinal beam (3) above the lowest element (6), there is at least one side-wall element (9) that is of flexible material. Side-wall elements (9) that are opposite each other on the two carrier-side longitudinal beams (3) are configured so as to be joinable to form a covering on either the load side or the carrier side. It is preferred that a slide plate (5) be arranged between the load-side longitudinal beams (4), the load-side longitudinal beams forming edge runners in the slide plate (5).
