ABSTRACT:
A side guide for a cargo loading system for use in loading cargo-loaded pallets into a vehicle, such as an aircraft. The side guide assembly is removably mounted in a track or channel assembly having alternate cutout portions and lip portions. The side guide assembly includes a frame on which rollers are mounted and a side guide portion suitable for receiving the edge of a pallet, a plurality of such assemblies being employed for restraining such pallet against other than slidable motion on the rollers. The frame assembly has tension lug means extending outwardly and normally from the bottom edge thereof, and shear lug means extending therefrom normally and in an opposite direction to the tension lug means. The frame further has an opening formed on the end of an arm extending therefrom. The assembly is removably installed in the vehicle by sliding the tension lug means into the track underneath the lip portions thereof while tilting the entire assembly upwardly and then lowering the assembly so that the shear lug means fits into the cutout portions of the track against the walls of said portions; with the opening in the end of the arm fitted over a stud member installed in a keyhole adapter in the vehicle floor, this opening portion fitting over the stud member and being retained thereto by means of a fastener member such as a nut.
