Provided is a rack post protection apparatus, which may include a cover wherein a cut-away part corresponding to the width of a rack post is provided in the longitudinal direction of a pipe-shaped body; an installation space part formed at the cover; and a communication module which is installed at the installation space and is formed of a transmission module and a collision detection sensor, thus quickly coping with any collision.

An apparatus for protection of an elongated structural support from impact, the apparatus includes an elongated impact protection component in the form of a unitary part having an inner surface, an outer surface, and a plurality of orthogonally-oriented projections spaced along a length of the elongated impact protection component. The projections of the elongated impact protection component include integrally formed connectors for interlocking connection to other same type impact protection components.

The present invention relates to stanchion padding and more specifically to stanchion padding for use in transit vehicles. The stanchion padding of the present invention comprises a tube having a hollow centre running through it from a first end to a second end and the tube also comprising an exterior wall and an interior wall joined by at least two channel walls forming at least two hollow channels. These hollow channels may be adapted to receive end caps and at least one end cap may be installed onto either the first end or the second end of the tube. The interior wall may additionally have small inner channels running the length of the tube. The tube may be made by thermoplastic extrusion and at least one end cap may be made by thermoplastic injection molding.

A protector allows for the engagement and protection of a segment of an upright from an impact force by an external object and for absorbing and damping the resulting impact force. The protector comprises a protector body and a shim. The protector body allows engagement and positioning of the protector on at least a segment of the upright. The protector body is also partially constructed of an energy absorbing and damping material and having an outer surface and an inner surface. The outer surface is positionable to receive the impact force from the external object. The inner surface is positionable to abut the upright, when the protector is in engagement with the upright. The shim is least partially embedded in the protector body and provides increased structural support for the protector body. The shim also has a stiffness different than the stiffness of the protector body.

A barrier includes recycled rubber portions molded around a core infrastructure. The core infrastructure may itself include recycled rubber in a containment body. The containment body may include baled recycled or other waste material. The barriers may be stacked or connected to form a barrier structure useful in environmental control and other applications. The method for making the barriers includes molding rubber portions and a binder around a core infrastructure.

A cargo net anchor guard mountable to an aircraft's cargo hold wall adjacent to an anchor clip assemblies. The cargo net anchor guard is configured to block cargo from impacting at least the anchor clip assembly. The cargo net anchor guard has a ramped deflection surface that can deflect moving cargo inwardly away from the wall and into the cargo net substantially without impacting the anchor clip assembly.

A bollard covering formed from a body, a body connector, a first center, a second center, a bottom, and a top is disclosed. The body connector and bottom further comprise post guide surfaces. In order to secure the bollard covering to the post, one or more holes are provided within the bottom, threaded to accommodate a set screw, or the like. Bollard covering elements are joined by welding, bonding, or mechanical fastening. Bollard coverings may be formed from a manufacturer's standard inventory elements in order to create a standard inventory or a customized bollard covering product that may be economically configured on an individual bollard covering basis, or on small or large scale runs, with as much variation in optional components, features, and conveniences as may be required by the marketplace.

The current invention relates to an impact absorbing post (1) for collision protection comprising a base member (3), a primary impact member (2), at least one inner impact member (9) and connecting members (8), wherein the base member (3) comprises a bottom plate (4) and a hollow connection profile (6), wherein the connection profile (6) is fixed to the bottom plate (4) and extends perpendicular to the bottom plate (4), wherein the primary impact member (2) and the at least one inner impact member (9) are hollow profiles extending perpendicular to the bottom plate (4), wherein the connection profile (6) is placed inside the primary impact member (2), wherein the at least one inner impact member (9) has a shorter length than the primary impact member (2), and wherein the at least one inner impact member (9) is placed at the bottom plate (4) inside the connection profile (6). The invention also relates to a method and a use.
