Abstract
A protective device for locking two relatively movable objects of a cargo container in a fixed relationship employing a longitudinal bar mechanism pivotally mounted on one of said objects for cooperatively engaging with a pair of keepers mounted on the other of said objects for locking the objects together and a first rod assembly pivotally connected to one end of the bar mechanism and a handle at its other end with the rod moving longitudinally into engagement with one of the keepers. A housing is mounted around the rod assembly through which the rod is movable and defines a recess which exposes a predetermined portion of the length of the rod assembly. An aperture is formed in the predetermined portion of the rod assembly through which a shackle or padlock may be placed to lock the protective device.
