Abstract

See full text

Apparatus for retaining a side edge of a tarpaulin along a side portion of an open-topped box such as a truck box, wherein the tarpaulin includes a rigid rod connected along its side edge. The apparatus includes a bracket for attachment to the side of the box. A clamp arm is pivotally mounted to the bracket for movement about a pivot axis between a closed clamping position for securing the rod and tarpaulin side edge in fixed relation to the clamp arm and side portion of the box and an open position for releasing the rod and tarpaulin side edge. A clamp arm latch is pivotally mounted so that it can be manually shifted between a latched position wherein the clamp arm is secured in the closed position and an unlatched position wherein the clamp arm is free to pivot to the open position.
