Abstract

A mobile panel that provides easy access to cargo loads in the center of a curtain-sided vehicle. A main tensioning device, usually installed at a front corner of a curtain-sided vehicle is used for applying horizontal tension to the curtain. Vertical tensioning straps along the length of the curtain provide vertical tension to the curtain as well as load security. At the rear of the curtain-sided vehicle a curtain pole, attached to the curtain, is inserted in a channel and anchored securely so that tension may be applied by the main tensioning device at the front of the curtain-sided vehicle. A mobile panel is located in the center of the curtain. The mobile panel hangs from rollers which engage a rail along the upper outside edge of the curtain-sided vehicle. The mobile panel has two quick release devices for receiving and securing curtain poles that are attached to the curtain. One section of the curtain extends from the front of the vehicle to one side of the mobile panel and a second section of curtain extends from the other side of the mobile panel to the rear of the vehicle.
