ABSTRACT:
A brake mechanism for a vertically storing dock leveler mounted on a carriage for lateral movement on rails relative to a dock surface. The brake is automatically actuated by means of an arm that bears against the leveler. When the leveler is lowered the arm rotates to urge a brake member into engagement with a rail thus preventing lateral movement of the carriage and leveler.
