You got that right.



I drew this for a truck owner, but the proportions could be adapted. The idea is two u-shapes, one strap metal and one conveyor belt material (which would be curved instead of flat). They would be fastened along the sides but not the end, so the belting can deform on impacts.

I'm curious what TÜV would say.
