STORAGE RACK COLUMN PROTECTOR

摘要

A storage rack column protector (30) is designed to protect a column (12) from damage from a straddle or outrigger type fork truck. If one of the outrigger forks is aimed at and heading toward the protected column (12), a ramp (36) on the protector raises the offending outrigger fork and thus also the wheel of the fork truck. Should the fork truck continue advancing, a stop (38) will bring the outrigger fork and the fork truck to a complete stop before it makes impact with the column.
