Forestry Backpacks
Apart from the Apiarist's Backpack there are several additional backpacks as well that can help you on your adventure.

these Backpacks are 15 slot containers which are restricted to certain classes of items. A Miner's Backpack for example will only hold ingots, ores and gems. It's not possible to put non-matching items into a backpack, they will simply stay selected on the cursor.

The forestry backpack allows you to dump its contents by holding the shift key down and right-clicking on a chest. As long as there is space in the chest, the backpack will then unload its entire inventory into it.

on a side note Since version 1.4.4.0, backpacks now have different “modes”, which can be switched by crouching and right-clicking "just make sure to do it away from your machines" with the backpack selected. This will cycle the backpack through four modes:
 * Normal Mode:  Will receive items only after the corresponding inventory stacks are topped. Right-clicking a chest while crouching will dump all contents of the backpack into the chest.
 * Locked Mode:  Will   receive items. Chest interaction is the same as in normal mode.
 * Receiving Mode:  Will receive items as in normal mode. Right-clicking a chest while crouching will fill the backpack with all the chest's matching items.
 * Resupply Mode:  Will receive items as in normal mode, but also restock the player's inventory stacks with the corresponding items from the backpack automatically. Chest interaction is the same as in normal mode. " There are also 45 slot versions of these called woven backpacks"
