Abstract
The invention is directed to a load securing device for standardized transport vessels, such as containers, interchangeable containers or the like, on loading surfaces by securing pins which are swivelable upward from a rest position under the loading surface around a horizontal swiveling axle arranged below the latter into their vertical working position and which are lockable in this position so as to be retained in openings in the corner regions of the transported goods. For this purpose, a swivel bearing plate is arranged in the manner of a one-armed lever between securing pins and the swivel axle so as to be mounted thereon, the securing pins being fastened to the swivel bearing plate at a distance laterally from the swivel axle. A locking pin is guided in a lockable manner at the swivel bearing plate so as to be displaceable transversely to the swivel axle and parallel to the swivel bearing plate, this locking pin being displaceable by a piston cylinder unit which can swivel the swivel bearing plate into its working position and rest position and thereby locks the swivel bearing plate.
