A partition for a cargo carrier (1) for bulk freight. The cargo carrier is provided with an unloading opening (3) closable by a door (4') or board at the location of a partition to be positioned at the inner side thereof. The partition includes a number of profiles (8) to be positioned horizontally across the unloading opening (3) in superposed relation into two supports (4). The supports (4) are provided at the location of the walls of the cargo carrier and extend perpendicular to the plane of the unloading opening (3). Each of the supports (4) includes a plate (4) the height of which corresponds substantially with the height of the partition. The plate (4) is placed against the inner wall of the cargo carrier and has parallel to the plane of the wall of the cargo carrier a dimension such that the bulk freight urges the plate (4) against said wall by a sufficient force as to hold the plate (4) by friction. The plate (4) is provided at the edge facing to the door or board, with a vertical member (6) attached flexibly around a vertical axis to the plate (4) respectively forming part thereof. The vertical member (6) is provided with supports (16) for the horizontal profiles (8) to be positioned between the plates (4) across the unloading opening (3).

1. A partition for use in a cargo carrier having an unloading opening and opposed inner side walls, said partition being adapted to be positioned inside said carrier, at the location of said opening, for containing bulk freight, wherein said partition comprises a plurality of profiles and a pair of supports for supporting said profiles, wherein each support includes: a plate, the height of which corresponds substantially to the height of the partition, said plate having a dimension that, when placed against an inner wall of a cargo carrier, the lateral force of bulk cargo presses the plate against said wall with force sufficient to hold the plate by friction; and a hollow vertical member flexibly attached to said plate along a vertical edge thereof, for movement about a vertical axis, wherein the hollow vertical members include support means for detachably engaging said profiles for horizontally positioning said profiles in superposed relation, and wherein said support means are spaced inwardly of said plates when said plates are positioned against opposed side walls such that force of bulk cargo against said profiles imparts a moment of torque on said hollow vertical members outwardly about their respective axes to press into the side walls of the carrier. 2. A partition as defined in claim 1, wherein said hollow vertical members are triangular in cross-section, the top of which engages said plate. 3. A partition as defined in claim 1 or 2, wherein the support means for the horizontal profiles constitute apertures in the hollow vertical members. 4. A partition as defined in claim 3, wherein said plates have facing inner walls, and comprising locking cam means on said inner walls spaced from said hollow vertical members at the level of each supporting aperture, and comprising elastic locking tongues, on opposite end portions of said horizontal profiles, for locking the horizontal profiles in cooperation with said cams. 5. A partition as defined in claim 3, wherein each horizontal profile includes an elongated plate with at least one hollow tube at the side to be oriented outwardly, and wherein the hollow tubes fit with their ends in the apertures of the hollow vertical members. 6. A partition as defined in claim 5, wherein the horizontal profiles are formed of a plurality of layers of corrugated cardboard. 7. A partition as defined in claim 1 or 2, wherein said plates are integrally formed with said hollow vertical members, with a junction between the plate and respective vertical member having a flexible interconnection. 8. A partition as defined in claim 7, wherein the plates and hollow vertical members are composed of a plurality of layers of corrugated cardboard. 9. A partition as defined in claim 1 or 2, wherein each horizontal profile includes an elongated plate with at least one hollow tube at the side to be oriented outwardly. 10. A partition as defined in claim 1, wherein each horizontal profile has a flexible sealing strip at its lower edge adapted to overlie and seal an adjacent horizontal profile.
