Abstract
A cargo compartment of a cargo carrier is bounded by a pair of generally vertical walls which extend in the longitudinal direction of the cargo carrier. At least two pairs of confining members are pivotally mounted on these walls for movement between operative and inoperative positions. In the inoperative positions, the confining members are generally parallel to the walls of the cargo compartment and the latter is capable of accommodating bulk goods. In the operative positions, the cargo compartment is capable of receiving containers and the confining members of each pair extend generally normal to the longitudinal axis of the cargo carrier and are in alignment with one another. The two pairs of confining members may be spaced from one another by several container lengths in their operative positions. In such an event, dividers which extend parallel to the confining members may be arranged between the latter in such a manner that the distance between each pair of confining members and the neighboring divider, as well as the distance between neighboring dividers, equals one container length. The dividers are releasably secured to the walls of the cargo compartment.
