Abstract

A security device used to secure heavy payloads upon a flatbed platform trailer bed thereby preventing injury during sudden stops and collisions. The security device comprises a plurality of interwoven load bearing straps capable of securing heavy payloads on trucks. The security device is situated between the front side of the payload and the backside of the front cab.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A security device for protecting the payload loaded on a platform trailer attached to a heavy duty truck with a front cab, the security device comprising:
 a polygonal shape body having a perimeter bounded by a plurality of linear edges;   the body comprising a plurality of interwoven load bearing straps with each strap capable of securing a heavy load of a predetermined size;   each linear edge of the perimeter surrounding the body being secured by a load bearing strap;   the load bearing straps having a first subset interwoven and non-connected with a second subset, the first subset linearly extending in one direction and the second subset extending substantially perpendicular to the first subset;   The first subset and the second subset extending diagonally to the outside edges;   the perimeter further defined by a top horizontal edge, a bottom horizontal edge, a left vertical side edge, and a right vertical side edge;   a first top corner situated at a top first end of the top horizontal edge and a first bottom corner situated at a bottom first end of the bottom horizontal edge;   a second top corner situated at an opposing top second end of the top horizontal edge and a second bottom corner situated at a bottom second end of the bottom horizontal edge;   a means for securing the first top corner and the second top corner of the top horizontal edge of the security device behind the front cab and disposed over a front side of the payload and extending downward therefrom to platform trailer; a means for securing the first bottom corner and the second bottom corner of the bottom horizontal edge of the security device behind the front cab and disposed over a front side of the payload and extending downward therefrom to platform trailer wherein the momentum of the front payload is prevented from moving forward into the front cab during a sudden stop or collision.   
   
   
       2 . The security device of  claim 1  wherein the perimeter is a square. 
   
   
       3 . The security device of  claim 1  wherein the perimeter is rectangular. 
   
   
       4 . The security device of  claim 1  further comprising:
 a first diagonal load bearing strap extending diagonally across the center from the first top corner of the top horizontal edge to the opposing second bottom corner of the bottom horizontal edge and being securely fastened thereto.   
   
   
       5 . The security device of  claim 1  further comprising:
 a first diagonal load bearing strap extending diagonally across the center from the opposing second top corner of the top horizontal edge to the first bottom corner of the bottom horizontal edge and being securely fastened thereto.   
   
   
       6 . The security device of  claim 4  further comprising:
 a second diagonal load bearing strap extending diagonally across the center and overlaying the first diagonal load bearing strap from the opposing second top corner of the top horizontal edge to the first bottom corner of the bottom horizontal edge and being securely fastened thereto.
