A load carrier foot ( 5 ) for attaching a load carrier bar ( 6 ) to the roof edge area ( 4 ) of a vehicle ( 1 ) which is primarily a roof edge area above a door ( 3 ) of the vehicle. The roof edge area is provided with a first and a second mounting stud ( 38, 39 ). The load carrier foot ( 5 ) is provided with a foot part ( 8 ) to whose upper section ( 11 ) the load carrier bar ( 6 ) is attached and whose base section ( 13 ) is provided with a first and a second gripping device ( 14, 15 ) which are arranged so that they can be adjusted relative to each other between a first, retracted position (FIG. 5 ) in which they are fitted to the mounting studs for mounting the load carrier foot ( 5 ) on the roof edge area and a second, extended position (FIG. 4 ) in which they are moved into secure engagement with the mounting studs. The gripping devices are adjusted between the first and the second position by means of a tightening device ( 21 ) provided on the foot part ( 8 ) and in which at least one of the gripping devices ( 14, 15 ) is attached to a first link arm ( 16 ) that is pivotably mounted on the foot part ( 8 ) by means of a pivot pin ( 17 ). |
