Abstract
A restraint assembly includes a lateral restraint comprising a guide face, wherein the lateral restraint is configured to be rotatably coupled to a tray of the cargo system. The restraint assembly also includes a vertical restraint rotatably coupled to the lateral restraint. The restraint assembly is configured to have a stored position and a raised position. In the stored position, both the lateral restraint and the vertical restraint are configured to be disposed within a volume defined by the tray of the cargo system. In the raised position, the vertical restraint and at least the guide face of the lateral restraint are configured to be disposed above the volume defined by the tray of the cargo system such that the restraint assembly provides at least one of longitudinal guidance, lateral restraint, and vertical restraint to cargo.
