ABSTRACT:
A partition in the form of a device for intercepting and retaining of cargo in a cargo hold is mounted between the cargo hold and a passenger cabin. The wall structure itself has a first group of energy absorbers extending horizontally between two wall sections. The mounting structure for the retaining wall includes a second group of energy absorbing elements. The shock absorbing elements of the second group are arranged in pairs so that two elements of a pair extend in parallel to each other. The two elements of the pair are journalled at one end to a mounting block by a first cross-wise extending journal pin or shaft. The journal pin passes through the mounting block which in turn is adjustably secured to a support rail. The other ends of the energy absorbing elements of a pair are interconnected by a second journal shaft which in turn holds a mounting claw. Thus, the pair of shock absorbing elements is tiltable about the first journal axis and the mounting claw is tiltable about the second journal axis for facilitating the installation and tilting of the wall. A lower cross-bar of the wall is received in the mounting claw while another lower cross-bar of the wall is slideable on the shock absorbing elements.
