LOCKING MECHANISM FOR AUTOMOBILE LUGGAGE RACKS

摘要

An article securing member (24, 25) for an automobile luggage rack is provided with a spring biased retractable lock pin (62) which can selectively engage a plurality of longitudinally spaced apertures (67) formed in the side rail (22) of the rack. A push button (70) is provided for actuating a lever link (74) which lifts the retractable lock pin (62) against the spring bias when the button (70) is depressed to disengage the lock pin (62) from the apertures (67) and permit sliding movement of the article securing member (24, 25) along the side rail.
