ABSTRACT A movable device for restraining freight in a cargo area in a freight transporting vehicle, for use with track means extending along the cargo area at the top side portions of the vehicle. The device includes an upright stanchion having a vertically extending cargo restraining surface on one side normal to the track. A carriage rolls along the track to permit moving the restraining device to a desired position, and locking means secures the stanchion in that position. A yoke means connects the carriage means with the stanchion, to provide a support framework for the stanchion that is rigid throughout its entire extent, in the vertical plane that passes through the center of gravity of the stanchion and is normal to the track, from the roller means of the carriage, along the roller axle and any supporting structure, along the yoke member, and across the stanchion to the vertical plane that passes through the center of gravity of the stanchion and is parallel to the track. It is preferred that the connection between the yoke and the upright stanchion be articulated in all horizontal directions, to permit a limited degree of swaying in response to displacement forces applied to the stanchion.
