Abstract
A carton stacking guide assembly for guiding the stacking of cartons in tiers, such as on pallets, includes elongated hinge bars extending parallel along opposite sides of a support platform, such as the load supporting platform of a cargo vehicle, with detachable first and second guide panels connected together at right angles to each other and hingedly connected to the guide bar for extending vertically from the support platform for guiding the stacking of cartons at the corners of a stack. The guide panels are open to reduce the wind resistance thereof and includes an elongated handle connected to the lower end of one of the panels a flexible tension member detachable connected at one end of the panel spaced upward from the hinge axis thereof and at the other end to the elongated handle spaced outward from the connection of the handle to the panel for assisting in tilting the guide assembly between a vertical guiding position and a horizontally extending nonguiding position.
