VEHICLE RESTRAINT HAVING AN UPWARDLY BIASED RESTRAINING MEMBER Abstract of the Disclosure A vehicle restraint for preventing accidental movement of a vehicle away from a loading dock. The vechicle restraint comprises a frame mounted on the front face of the dock and a restraining member having a hook like configuration is mounted for movement on the frame between the lower storage position and an upper operative position where the restraining member is engaged with an abutment, such as an ICC bar, on the vehicle. The restraining member is biased upwardly to the operative position and a power operated means is arranged to move the restraining member downwardly from the operative position to the storage position where it is locked in the storage position by a releasable latching means. On release of the latching means, the biasing mechanism will move the restraining member upwardly into engagement with the ICC bar, and the biasing means enables the engaged restraining member to follow both upward and downward movement of the ICC bar during a loading operation.
