ABSTRACT:
A hold down apparatus for a tippable structure of a vehicle has a clamping catch which is rotatable about a transverse axis. The catch has a fork formed by two projecting prongs on one side of the transverse axis and, on the other side of the transverse axis, is acted upon by a spring device which holds the clamping catch with an over-center action either against a stop, in which position the opening of the fork faces the structure, or urges the clamping catch with spring action into a second position in which the fork is held in an essentially horizontal position in which the structure is clamped down.
