Description

I Securing device for all road transport vehicles

  general goods, in order to avoid falls or

  overturning of goods during transport.

  The present invention relates to a securing device for all road transport vehicles for general goods, with a view to preventing falls or overturning of the goods during transport, resulting from numerous accidents, disputes and damage. The stowage of the goods is often neglected for lack of a simple and effective means for the user, which explains why at the slightest 4 ode mass transfer due to braking, a slope curve, or an avoidance maneuver. obstacle, the goods fall into the vehicle or onto the roadway, which could injure users or the driver but also damage the vehicle. General merchandise is mainly Ae merchandise packaged on a pallet, but also, it is found in the form of a reel or in bulk like: "tires, metallurgy, parcels etc ...". The solutions currently applied to avoid the unfortunate consequences of accidents or litigation, are lashing by individual straps ë. and tensioners with angles. Another system consists, with a lashing bar taken on trailer boards, of maintaining the last pallets. These solutions are only palliative, and not very satisfactory. Thus, securing by straps and angles is made difficult by its handling and _ ,. complex, due to the different loading volumes. The number of straps and angles must be sufficient to secure the entire cargo safely. There is also a risk of falling for the user, when the latter is forced to climb to the top of his load to secure the goods.bo But not all goods can be strapped because the tension of the strap can crush the goods: example "pallets of milk bricks or sensitive goods such as groupage loading". The present invention proposes to eliminate all the aforementioned drawbacks, by providing a lashing device composed of a lashing assembly to be installed in the vehicle before loading, ensuring a

  rapid and efficient elimination of accidents, disputes and damage.

  This device, after its first assembly, remains in the vehicle, it will be used after each loading or unloading. Given its flexible and light structure, with its simple operation, the user will have little trouble putting it in place. It thus avoids dangerous and risky handling. To this end, the securing device according to the invention for vehicles for the transport of general goods, comprises, according to a first characteristic, a system comprising an assembly of straps sewn together forming on the one hand, a belt which bypasses the merchandise, and on the other hand, a strapping starting from the top to the bottom, the whole being suspended by elastic "Sandows", allowing the mobility and the adaptation of the system, according to the mode of loading

or goods to be stowed.

  More specifically, the lashing device is suspended in the vehicle, which requires prior installation, 6 rings fixed by rivets or screws, and 4 anchor points fixed inside, on the uprights rear of the vehicle, 1 meter from the floor for the first and 1.5 meters for the second. The three technically positioned "Sandows", in the center and on the sides 20 cm from the edge, have a carabiner at each end. This allows the device to be removable

  and foldable in particular forward to allow side loading.

  It can be extended over the entire length of the vehicle for rear loading, which saves the user time. Once the loading is finished, the user tends down to the level of the second item of merchandise, the tensioners on the sides, which he has carefully hung on the edge of the bank. Then, it belts the goods by crossing the rear straps over the anchoring points fixed inside the vehicle, thus the whole of the cargo is stalled and stabilized quickly with lashing

  efficient and easy to install device for the user.

  3o According to another aspect of the invention, the mooring device is provided with eight tensioners and straps on the sides with an individual resistance of 7500 daN / Kg. They are hung on the edge of the chassis. The four straps that surround the goods to the rear have a width of 50 mmn 100% polyester (T.M.U 2000kgs), are hung by tensioners of 7500 daN / Kg with four anchoring points fixed inside

  use the rear walls or frames of the vehicle or the floor.

  On the projecting parts of the goods, an adjustable strap protection, "PVC" is provided in order to prevent the device from breaking in the event of

  braking or friction thereof.

  According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the lashing device can be reduced depending on the vehicle or the goods transported, but it keeps the same principle of belting the goods by crossing the straps at the rear, by tensioners attached to the anchor points. The fixings on the sides can be reduced or eliminated if the vehicle does not have an edge edge or anchor point in the

to floor.

  In any case, the invention will be better understood using the

  description which follows, with reference to the attached schematic drawings

  representing, by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of this securing device for vehicles transporting goods

  general, in order to avoid accidents and litigation.

  Figure 1 is a side view, partly in section, of a trailer comprising a commodity, equipped with the folded device according to the present invention; Figure 2 is a side view, partially in section, of a trailer, Lo comprising goods, equipped with the device securing the goods according to the present invention; Figure 3 is a top view, with the detail, on a larger scale, of

this securing device.

  Figure I very schematically shows a trailer (R), with Ls a commodity (3) loaded near the front apron (T). The folded device comprises crossed straps (1), one of the belt parts (2) of which

  merchandise (3), and the other descends vertically using tensioners (4).

  The "Sandows" (5) pass through the rings (6) and are hooked with carabiners (7), on hooks (8) fixed at the front (T) and at the rear (AR ) of the trailer (R). Two one-meter "bungee cords" (9) hold the first row of the device (1,4) towards the front of the deck (T), in order to better match the merchandising (3). The anchor points (10) are fixed inside on the walls of the rear chassis (12), they are provided for the straps which surround (2) the goods (3), equipped with tensioners (l 1) The device securing the goods, shown in the figure 2, presents the invention in function, the crossed straps (1), stretched downwards, are hung on the edge edges (14) in order to hold the goods (3), the straps (2) which surround the goods ( 3) are crossed and stretched with the tensioners (l I) on the anchor points (10) fixed on the rear frame (12), but not visible in the sectional diagrams. The "<Sandows" (5) have enabled to guide the system and helped facilitate the movement of the device

  mooring thanks to the rings (6) provided for this purpose.

  Figure 3 is the mooring device according to the invention shows in detail, from a top view, the set of sewn straps, with intermediate crossed straps (1), connected to the parallel straps (2) which will surround the merchandise. The distances of the parallel straps (2) are 0.50 cm, the vertical straps (4) are spaced 4 meters apart, on each side as well as the center, rings (6) are sewn on the device. The protections (P) in "PVC" are provided on the lower part of the vertical strap (4), the two "Sandows" (8) of one meter are attached to two loops (13) provided to help the positioning of the device on the

goods (3).

  It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the sole embodiment of this mooring device for all goods transport vehicles which has been described above. By way of example, it embraces, on the contrary, all the variant embodiments and applications respecting the same principle. That is to say in particular, that the entire device is suspended at each end of the vehicle by a manual or electric pulley ensuring the same function, which would be controlled by the user, such as a rise / fall in load. We can also consider, without departing from the scope of the invention, widening the straps which surround the goods or adding additional straps. Remove the cross straps positioned at the top of the device and connecting the parallel straps, in order to keep only the belt system crossed at the strap with tensioners. Finally, although the mooring system is simplified or respected according to the invention, it is particularly intended to stow the

  goods in road transport vehicles.
