摘要： A vertically moving door of a truck loading dock includes a disconnectable horizontal joint that provides the door with a barrier position, wherein an upper section of the door can be separated from a lower section to create a ventilation area between the two. The ventilation area allows fresh outside air to enter the building, while the lower section remains at its lowermost position for safety and security. More specifically, the lower section serves as a barrier that helps prevent someone or something from accidentally falling through the doorway when a truck is not present at the dock. A lightweight, resilient strap can be attached to the lower section of the door to help protect that section from an otherwise damaging impact. A lattice of straps or a mesh can be installed across the ventilation area to help secure the building against theft.

摘要： A retractable barrier includes a rollup or otherwise retractable panel that can extend between two spaced apart support members. When not in use, the panel can retract onto one of the support members to permit passage. The barrier provides substantial impact resistance by having the reactive force of the impact transfer directly between the barrier's retractable panel and its support members without having to rely on the strength of the panel's take-up roller or the strength of the roller's anti-rotation mechanism. This can be accomplished by having a slot-engaging stop member mounted directly to the panel itself. The stop member is preferably a pipe, rod, bar or some other vertically elongate member that can broadly distribute an impact reactive force over the height of the panel. In some embodiments, the barrier can be set for various doorway widths by simply repositioning the stop member's location on the retractable panel.

摘要翻译： 可收缩的屏障包括可在两个间隔开的支撑构件之间延伸的汇总或其它可收回的面板。 当不使用时，面板可以缩回到其中一个支撑构件上以允许通过。 屏障通过使冲击的反作用力直接在阻挡件的伸缩面板及其支撑构件之间传递而不必依赖于面板的卷取辊的强度或者辊的防旋转机构的强度，而提供了显着的抗冲击性。 这可以通过具有直接安装到面板本身的狭槽接合止动构件来实现。 止动构件优选地是可以在面板的高度上大致分布冲击反作用力的管，杆，杆或一些其它垂直细长构件。 在一些实施例中，可以通过简单地将止动构件的位置重新定位在可伸缩面板上来将障碍物设置为各种门口宽度。

摘要： To avoid repeated damage to a lower section of a metal roll-up door, the lower section is replaced by a more impactable curtain assembly. The curtain assembly is so readily scalable, horizontally and vertically, that much of it can be manufactured and field assembled right at the installation site. The curtain assembly may comprise one or more strips of fabric that are cut from a roll of a certain width. The length of the fabric strips corresponds to the width of the doorway, and the number of strips is based on the vertical span of the door section that is being replaced. Windbars can be attached where adjacent strips connect to each other. A weighted, semi-rigid bottom bar reinforces the lower edge of the finished roll-up curtain. Under impact, the bottom bar has sufficient flexibility to allow the curtain to resiliently break away from within the door's vertical guide tracks.

摘要翻译： 为了避免对金属卷帘门的下部重复损坏，下部由更易冲击的帘组件代替。 幕帘组件是如此容易的水平和垂直伸缩，其大部分可以在安装现场进行制造和现场组装。 帘幕组件可以包括从一定宽度的卷切割的一个或多个织物条。 织物条的长度对应于门口的宽度，并且条的数量是基于被更换的门部分的垂直跨度。 可以在相邻条带相互连接的地方安装风车。 加强的半刚性底杆加强了成品卷帘的下边缘。 在冲击下，底杆具有足够的灵活性，以允许窗帘弹性地从门的垂直导轨内脱离。

摘要： A bumper for use at a loading dock has two ranges of front-to-back movement: one range for sealing the gap that might otherwise exist between the rear edge of a truck and the front face of the bumper and a second range for absorbing the impact of the truck backing into the dock. In some cases, a spring provides a relatively light sealing force between the bumper and the truck, and a compressible core provides a much greater impact-absorbing force that helps stop the rearward movement of the truck. In some embodiments, the bumper pivots by gravity when operating in the sealing range.

摘要： A ventilation system for a trailer at a loading dock includes a fan supported by a positioning mechanism that can vary the extent to which the fan protrudes into the doorway. In some cases, the fan can protrude into the trailer itself to ensure airflow to the full depth of the trailer. When not in use, the fan can retract to a stored position where the fan is completely clear of the doorway, so the dock door can close. In some embodiments, the positioning mechanism includes an articulated arm with various pivot points that enable the fan to aim into a trailer at different angles and even move to another doorway to ventilate a different trailer. A lamp can be mounted to the fan and/or the fan's positioning mechanism.

摘要： A support apparatus includes a first substantially horizontal member positioned adjacent to first and second elongated substantially vertical member members. The first substantially horizontal member has a channel formed in its rear side. The channel is sized and configured to receive wiring for display devices. The first substantially horizontal member is supported or attached to first and second collars positioned on the first and second elongated substantially vertical members such that movement of the first and second collars adjusts a vertical position of the first substantially horizontal member. One or more display devices, such as LCD screens or computer monitors, may be positioned on the first substantially horizontal member. Preferably, each display device positioned on the first substantially horizontal member is connected to the first substantially horizontal member via a connector that utilizes a releasable attachment mechanism that permits an easy removal or connection to the first substantially horizontal member.
