Abstract
Disclosed are wall stake structures adaptable for removably implanting into flat bed trailer and truck vehicles provided with a plurality of depending pockets; laterally extending sidewall paneling is supported by the upright wall stakes. Each wall stake comprises in dovetailed relationship: an implantable upright tubular primary member; and an upright secondary member cross-sectionally unitarily including a winged web, a transversely extending vertical-plate, and vertical guide-plates extending laterally in both directions from the vertical-plate. The laterally extending vehicle sidewall paneling is supported between the front-wall of the primary tubular member and the guide-plates of the secondary member. The secondary member at the winged web is tightly slidably surrounded by the post member to both strengthen the tubular post member and to define in conjunction therewith a vertical header bore to receive an end of a topbow canopy support. Alternate embodiments are described appropriate for supporting the upright terminal ends of two neighboring panels, for supporting an intermediate vertical notch of the same panel, for receiving a range of topbow and paneling cross-sectional sizes, and for meeting other exigiencies commonly confronting the drayman.
