DEFINITION

Classification: 410/143

Brace bar, wall-to-wall:

(under subclass 121) Structure for use in a freight carrier

having opposed side walls between its ends; and in which the rigid member means constitutes an elongate compartment-spanning member provided with end means for securement to the opposed side walls of the freight carrier at the location where it abuts lading and inhibits shifting thereof during transit.

(1) Note. A brace bar receiver either installed along or formed from the opposed side walls and cooperating with the end means of the spanning member for its securement is provided for hereunder (for which see indented subclass 152).

(2) Note. The limitation "end means" is limited to one of the usual pair of structures under the subclass definition to function at one of the pair of brace bar ends. [figure]
