LOAD RESTRAINING CEILING AND SYSTEM FOR REFRIGERATED VEHICLES

摘要

The load restraining system for refrigerated vehicles having insulated ceiling/roof structures. The ceiling/roof is provided with a downwardly facing ceiling surface having a multiplicity of sockets (20) spaced substantially throughout the ceiling. Vertically extendible poles (18) have a projection (24) on the upper end for engaging a socket and thereby locating the upper end of the pole against horizontal movement in any direction. The lower end of each pole has a foot (78) for engaging the floor in a manner to inhibit horizontal movement in any direction. Numerous poles can be positioned throughout the refrigerated vehicle at virtually infinitely variable locations to restrain loads of different sizes.
