CA 2460851

At a truck loading dock, a flexible draft shield (32) helps seal a lower inner corner of a dock shelter. Instead of a foam core, the draft shield includes a resiliently flexible frame (50) that supports a pliable cover (48). In some embodiments, the frame includes a spring steel loop that is able to flex upon being squeezed between two members of the dock shelter. In some cases, the draft shield is hollow and open at the bottom.

La présente invention concerne un écran souple anti-courant d'air (32) équipant un quai de chargement de camions pour créer une fermeture plus étanche au niveau du coin intérieur bas d'un auvent de quai. Dans cet écran anti-courant d'air, le coeur de mousse a été remplacé par une armature souple par élasticité (50) servant de support à un élément couvrant souple (48). Selon certains modes de réalisation, l'armature comporte un ressort à lame en boucle capable de fléchir sous l'effet d'une compression s'exerçant entre deux éléments de l'auvent de quai. Dans certains cas, l'écran anti-courant d'air est creux et ouvert vers le bas.
