ABSTRACT:
The present freight locking mechanism is constructed especially for use on the loading or freight floor of an aircraft. For this purpose all the components are arranged between two flat, horizontally extending frame members in such a position and coordination that all components may be retracted below a level defined by the upper edge of the horizontal frame members. Two freight locking members are effective with their respective claw in opposite directions. The locking members have different width so that they may be arranged next to each other, or one between the legs of the other between the frame members. Each locking member is journalled for a tilting movement and biased by a respective torque spring in such a manner that a release lever (8) may automatically establish a loading or unloading status of the mechanism in response to movement of a freight item over the mechanism in opposite directions.
