ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a load retainer and retention means for said load retainer for use in a transport vehicle so that the load retainer can be moved to any desired location within a transport vehicle but cannot be readily removed from said transport vehicle. Further, the retainer can be removably connected to opposing walls of the transport vehicle to provide a partition between different loads and to retain said loads in a particular position. The retainer has three parallel flexible belts that extend from side to side and are interconnected by a rectangular sheet of durable material. Each belt has two ends with hooks thereon. Each belt corresponds with support tracks on either side of the transport vehicle, the support tracks having a series of similar openings therein. The hooks can be inserted within the openings and the belts tightened so that the retainer is held in a fixed position within the transport vehicle. The retention means is a cable extending along one of the tracks that is removably affixed to said track by supports. The cable extends through a loop that is connected by an interconnecting belt to the retainer so that the retainer is slidably on the cable within the transport vehicle but cannot be removed from the transport vehicle without releasing the loop from the cable.
