ABSTRACT:
A deformable sealing arrangement for the gap between the edge of an opening in a building and the back end of a vehicle that is driven up to the building. An apron that can be deformed by the vehicle is provided. The two side portions of the apron are secured to the side legs of a rigid, U-shaped frame, and the transverse portion of the apron that is disposed above the opening of the building is secured to the transverse leg of the frame. In order to obtain a good sealing effect for various vehicle contours, no matter how close the vehicle is driven to the building, the side portions of the apron are suspended on support arms that are pivotable against a return force, and are movable about a vertical axis. Tension springs are disposed between the upper edge of the side apron portions and the support arms.
