Title: An improved vehicle loading dock fender assembly
Inventor: COWEY STEVEN JOHN
IPC: B65G69/00
Filed: 2003-09-15
Abstract: The invention relates to a loading dock fender unit (12) which is adapted for attachment adjacent a dock leveller (11) of a loading dock (10), the fender unit comprising a mounting plate (13), an elongate track fixed to and projecting from the front face of the mounting plate (13) centrally thereof, a solid rubber or rubber like fender (15) guided for vertical sliding movement along the track, and a spring loaded fender restraining mechanism (27) which supports the fender in a normal at rest position and is arranged to resist movement of the fender (15) when displaced downwards from the normal at rest position by an externally applied force.
