The present invention relates to cargo load lock system. The cargo load lock may include an upper foot, a telescoping tubular pole, a gripping foot and a pair of forks. The cargo load lock may be coupled to a pallet by the pair of forks to better secure cargo against a surface within a cargo carrier in order to keep the cargo in place. The cargo load lock system includes a device for tightening the upper foot and the gripping foot against a pallet and the interior portion of the cargo truck or the trailer, the device for tightening is adapted to shorten or extend the length of the telescoping tubular pole in a secure position. The gripping foot may have the pair of forks, a housing with a plurality of nubs and corresponding holes or a fork plate to accommodate insertion into the pallet.
A cargo load lock system, comprising:
(canceled)
A cargo load lock system, comprising:
