A safety floor for a mobile storage system includes one or more flat panels having end brackets that overlie horizontal support surfaces on the system rails. The brackets define longitudinal troughs, in which are mounted leaf springs and safety switches. The leaf springs have lifting pins that extend through holes in the brackets to contact the rail support surfaces and resiliently supported by the panel. The safety switches also have lifter pins that extend through the bracket and that are spaced a predetermined distance above the rail support surfaces. When a person steps on the panels the panel deflects towards the rail support surface so that a safety switch lifter pin contacts and is actuated by the rail support surface to control the mobile storage system electrical circuitry. The springs are adjustable to accommodate different panel sizes and weights while maintaining the desired distance between the safety switch lifter pins and the rail support surfaces. |
