Definitions

  • Cargo load 16 may comprise a palletized load (i.e., a load secured to a pallet 11) in consideration of the exceptional convenience provided where such load is palletized; however, the present de ⁇ vice is equally effective when utilized with other types of loads.
  • Load 16 may be a hazardous material, as for example, a load of munitions or other material, which is subject to damage or destruction if it should, to any extent, be moved accidentally during shipment.
  • the present device is especially adapted for restraining loads of this type, which are not as effectively main ⁇ tained in place by prior restraining devices as afore ⁇ mentioned .
  • the device 10 is formed from a plurality of spaced generally L-shaped support beams, each of which comprise a vertical member 16, and a horizontal member 18, which defines the horizontal leg of the L.
  • the generally planar platform piece 15 is supported upon the horizontal legs or members 18, and is maintained thereupon by welding or other suit ⁇ able joining operations. The platform piece 15 is thereby maintained in spaced relation to an underlying support floor.
  • An upright member 20 is adjoined to one end of the platform member 12 for effecting restraining contact with the adjacent side of the load seated on the platform member.
  • Upright member 20 is secured to the vertical legs 16 of the L-shaped members, and in ⁇ cludes a generally planar portion 22 facing the load, which is provided with a plurality of vertically spaced parallel slots 24, 24a, 26, 26a, 28, and 28a, which define openings through the member 20.
  • strap members 30 and 32 may be passed beneath the platform member 14 as at 34 and
  • the straps may be passed through appropriate slots in accordance with the height of the load so that a very tight and snug interfit is achieved about the total load 16, thereby maintaining same in extremely snug and secure contact with the cargo restraining device 10.
  • the L-shaped members consist of the vertical members 16 and horizontal members 18, which are, as aforementioned, welded to one another to form the con ⁇ tinuous L-shaped members. As shown in Figure 5, a gusset 40 is provided where the L juncture occurs to enable good reinforcing effect at such zone.
  • the present device 10 is pro ⁇ vided with a plurality of floor gripping projections, preferably in the form of appropriately shaped teeth or the like, at the downwardly facing portion of the L-junctions. More specifically it is seen, referring especially to Figures 3 and 4, that cleat plates 42 and 44 are provided, which carry at their bottommost edges a plurality of sawtooth shaped teeth 46. Plates 42 and 44 are retained within cleat guides 43 and 45 which are welded to legs 18, and are secured by bolts
  • the teeth 46 at the bottom of a particular plate may be bent to alternate sides of the vertical plane, i.e., successive teeth 46a, 46b, are so bent in the row of teeth, so as to introduce additional stability tending to preclude side-to-side or lateral swaying of the load seated upon the cargo restraining device.
  • the arrangement of the sawtooth shaped teeth is such as to sharply limit dis- placement of the restraining device carrying the load in a rearward direction, i.e. movement toward the right in the sense of Figure 2. Under such circumstances, the sawtooth shaped teeth will dig into the underlying support floor.
  • further projections such as teeth or the like, may be provided at the bottom surface of the front end of hor ⁇ izontal legs 18, as shown in Figure 2 at 52.
  • the portion 22 constituting the rearward sup- port planar piece may be formed from a plurality of generally rectangular pieces 54, 56, 58, and 60, which pieces are laterally joined, as for example by welding.
  • These pieces 54, 56, etc. include cutout portions formed by bending over the metal cutouts, as for example at 62, 68, etc. These cutout portions, upon lateral joining, define the aforementioned horizontal slots 24, 26, etc.
  • the bent-over portion, as at 62 provides a widened support where the strap passes through the slot to prevent un- due wear or strain upon same. This same result obtains at the topmost rectangular piece 60 where bent-over portions 70 and 72 are provided; i.e. when strapping passes about the topmost edge of backing member 20, the extended portions 70 and 72 again prevent undue strain upon the strapping.
  • the vertical members 16 are secured to the member 20 and to the platform backing piece 21, by be ⁇ ing welded thereto. While the present device has been shown with three L-shaped support members, other num ⁇ bers, such as two, or numbers greater than three, can be readily utilized.
  • the present device is particularly useful in .connection with hazardous loads, such as ammunitions and the like, it is of such efficacy in restraining loads, that it is well suited to any type of palletized or nonpalletized load.

Abstract

A moins qu'un chargement de marchandises ne soit convenablement fixé dans son engin transporteur, le mouvement du véhicule, spécialement lors d'accélérations et de décélérations, tend à déplacer le chargement, ce qui se traduit souvent par des dégâts causés au chargement et/ou au transporteur. Un dispositif permettant d'arrimer de manière sûre le chargement pendant le transport comprend une plate-forme généralement plane (12) supportée de manière espacée au-dessus d'un plancher, et possède une surface supérieure (14) portant le chargement et destinée à recevoir le chargement de marchandises (16). Un montant (20) est adjoint à une extrémité de la plate-forme pour assurer un contact de retenue avec le côté adjacent de la charge (16) placée sur la plate-forme (12). Le montant (20) inclut un organe plan (22) faisant face à la charge (16), lequel est pourvu de plusieurs fentes parallèles horizontales espacées verticalement (24, 24a, 26, 28, et 28a). Des sangles (30, 32) peuvent passer sous la plate-forme (12) puis autour de la charge (16) reposant sur cette plate-forme et être attachées de manière sûre en contact avec la charge en les faisant passer au travers d'une fente horizontale (24, 24a, 26, 28, et 28a) du montant en fonction de la hauteur de la charge (16) placée sur la plate-forme (12).
