摘要： The present invention is an impact vehicle restraint with a hook and auxiliary securing/locking mechanism that combine to secure the RIG bar of a trailer to a loading dock. A motor rotates the hook between retracted and extended positions. When extended, the hook secures and holds the RIG bar to the dock. When the hook is extended, the auxiliary securing/locking mechanism is also extended to and held at a set position by a biasing mechanism. When the hook is blocked by an obstruction, forward movement of the trailer causes the RIG bar and the obstruction to slide into engagement with the auxiliary securing/locking mechanism, which accepts the RIG bar and obstruction and moves to a locked position to secure the RIG bar. The retraction of the hook by the motor overpowers the biasing mechanism and causes the retraction of the auxiliary securing/locking mechanism.

摘要： The present invention is a loading dock rail shelter with an inflatable canopy and a dual stabilizing and passive retraction support assembly. The canopy has an outer end that moves between inflated and retracted positions. The support assembly includes a rigid frame secured around the perimeter of the canopy, and a pivoting support mechanism that allows the frame to ride with the canopy while supporting and guiding the canopy. The shelter has a lower panel assembly that close the bottom of the canopy. The lower panel has lateral support rods and a front panel support assembly secured to the frame. The support assembly supports the canopy and its lower panel so they do not drag along the ground. The rigid frame stabilizes and guides the inflating canopy to seal around a railcar doorway. The support assembly and frame swing back to passively retract and hold the canopy against the building.

摘要： The present multi-seal dock seal has a pair of side seal assemblies that form both a compression seal and a wipe seal with a trailer. The side seal assembly secure to the building wall along the door opening. A wipe seal pad is positioned in front of a compression pad by an extension pad. The flexible pads are formed of polyurethane foam wrapped with a PVC vinyl coated polyester cover. The wipe and extension pads are more rigid than the compression pads, and the compression and extension pads are joined together to further support the extension pad. The side seal assemblies provide sealing zones to accommodate a wide range of truck and trailer types. The multiple seals formed by the multi-seal dock seal ensure a good seal with the trailer when the trailer fully backs into the bay, and when an obstruction prevents it from fully backing into the bay.

摘要： A dock leveler with a deck and an extendable lip that hangs pendant when the deck is in a stored position. A lip extension mechanism engages when the deck is raised to a raised or cocked position. As the deck is lowered to an intermediate transition position, the extension mechanism extends the lip to a fully extended position. At the transition position, the lip extension mechanism automatically disengages and a lip locking mechanism automatically and simultaneously locks and holds the lip in its fully extended position. When the deck is further lowered so that the lip comes to rest on a truck trailer, the locking mechanism automatically released or unlocked. The lip returns to its pendant position when the deck is raised from the truck bed. After the truck pulls away from the dock, the deck is lowered to its stored position.

摘要： The present invention relates to a storable vehicle restraint for securing a trailer to a loading dock. A mounting plate anchors a vertical track to the dock. A horizontal barrier is joined to the track and is movable between stored and raised positions. The barrier has a throat that receives the ICC bar of a trailer and a hook that is position in front of the bar to prevent the trailer from moving away from the dock. A cooperating drive unit and lift assembly allows the barrier to be stored at height of 9 inches and raised to a height of 30 inches, while providing a substantially uniform upward force to the barrier. A sensor having a switch to detect proper alignment with the ICC bar is positioned along side the throat of the barrier. The barrier forms a housing that protect the lift assembly, drive unit and sensor switch.

摘要： A hydraulically operated dock leveler having a single cylinder that raises the ramp and extends the lip. The leveler includes a ramp assembly that is hinged at its rear edge to a supporting structure and a lip that is hinged to the forward edge and can be pivoted between a downwardly hanging pendant position and an extended position. A lip extension crank is attached to the forward hinge and a hydraulic cylinder is interposed between the crank and the supporting structure. The hydraulic system includes a pump to provide fluid to the cylinder at the desired pressure to raise the ramp and extend the lip. By operating the cylinder, the ramp assembly rises from a horizontal cross traffic position to an upwardly inclined position. As the ramp nears the top of its inclined position the extension crank is actuated downward allowing the hydraulic cylinder to rotate the crank about the hinge and extend the lip. When operation of the pump is discontinued, the ramp will descend until the lip engages the bed of a truck. When the system pressure is dissipated the crank will retract allowing the lip to fall free and pendant when the cylinder is operated to store the dock leveler.

摘要： The present invention is an impact vehicle restraint with a hook and auxiliary locking mechanism that combine to secure the RIG bar of a trailer to a loading dock. A motor rotates the hook between retracted and extended positions. When extended, the hook secures and holds the RIG bar to the dock. When the hook is extended, the auxiliary locking mechanism is also extended to and held at a set position by a biasing mechanism. When the hook is blocked by an obstruction, forward movement of the trailer causes the RIG bar and the obstruction to slide into engagement with the auxiliary locking mechanism, which accepts the RIG bar and obstruction and moves to a locked position to secure the RIG bar. The retraction of the hook by the motor overpowers the biasing mechanism and causes the retraction of the auxiliary locking mechanism.
