DOCK GATE BARRIER SYSTEM
A dock gate barrier system includes: a barrier with first and second ends with a central axis extending therebetween, and a coupling defining a passage; and a support member, from which extends a hitch pin, which extends along a longitudinal axis, and can enter and extend into the coupling passage. The hitch pin and the passage are configured such that: in a first configuration, the hitch pin can enter into/withdraw from, the passage; and in a second configuration, in response to a load being applied to the barrier causing it to bend, the hitch pin is engaged with the coupling to thereby lock the coupling relative to the hitch pin and thereby lock the barrier member to the first support member.
