ABSTRACT:
A restraint system for a vehicle bunk is combined with a privacy and light-excluding curtain to provide a system which is easily engaged and disengaged from the inside of the bunk. The bottom edge of the upwardly openable center curtain panel is closed only with securement of the bottom ends of restraint straps, so that the restraint system is used whenever the curtain is fully closed. The lower ends of the restraint straps are simply slipped through loops at the inside surface of the curtain panel, just above the latching devices at the ends of the restraint straps, so that connection of the restraint to the curtain is easily and efficiently accomplished, and separation of the two is easily made when desired. Depending storage straps are provided for storing the curtain, with or without the restraint straps, in raised, rolled-up condition. The entire curtain and restraint system, including side panels, is removably secureable to the sleeper bunk by means of quickly fastenable pin and hole structure and hook and looped fabric type fasteners. The system makes use of the restraint straps convenient and nearly mandatory whenever the curtain is to be closed, yet enables the restraint portion of the system to be used independently of the curtain, with the openable curtain panel in the stored position.
