Abstract:
The present invention relates to an impact protection device clip configured to locate an impact protection device about a post of a racking system. The post of such racking system includes a cross-sectional wall profile defining a chamber with an opening. The clip includes a body arranged in use to extend through said opening of the post. The body further includes first and second attachment devices for enabling attachment of the clip to the impact protection device, and at least one contact. The at least one contact is configured so that if the protection device is moved in a first direction causing a part of the protection device to be pulled generally away from the post, the contact engages against an inner face of the cross-sectional wall profile of the post so that the engagement between the contact of the clip and the post resists further movement of the protection device in the first direction. The present invention also provides a method of preventing inadvertent removal of a clip from an impact protection device located about a pallet racking post. The post includes a cross-sectional wall profile defining a chamber with an opening, and the clip includes a body with at least one contact. The method includes the steps of: positioning the at least one contact of the clip so that the contact is received in the chamber of the post and the body extends through the opening of the post; and attaching the clip to the impact protection device so that the impact protection device is located about the post. In this way, when the impact protection device is subject to an impact or other contact that causes a part of the impact protection device to move generally away from the post, the clip is arranged to resist further movement of the impact protection device away from the post by establishing an engagement between the at least one contact of the clip and an inner face of the cross-sectional wall profile of the post. The present invention further provides a kit including an impact protection device for a pallet racking post and at least one impact protection device clips.

Claim (Index 7):
A clip according to  claim 6  wherein the first and second fingers extend outwardly from a first end of the body and at an angle to one another.
