Rails Brace Moving Cargo
May 1963…
Rails brace moving cargo. Slotted rails and telescoping, spring-loaded poles, according to this recent patent, might speed cargo handling, reduce in-transit damage and lessen the need for placing items in crates.
The rails would be fastened to the roof, floor, and sides of the truck or freight car. Snapping pole ends into holes would keep the cargo from shifting.
