Abstract

This disclosure provides a bushing for a captive beam system, and specifically a bushing that extends between a track for a captive beam system and a bracket that slides along the track. In some captive beam systems that have automatic moving capability, the bracket (and therefore the captive beam that is rotatably connected to the bracket) is pulled upward or downward by a force applied thereto either directly or indirectly, and this force may result in some rubbing between the bracket and the track, which introduces the possibility of wear. The bushing is provided as a wear surface to prevent track or bracket wear. The disclosure also provides a tensioning system for an automatically movable captive beam.
