Roof load carrier for vehicles

摘要

A roof load carrier for a vehicle having a roof rail with an upper support surface and an inner channel which opens toward the top of the rail. The channel opening is formed by inwardly directed flanges. A transverse bar is arranged adjustably along the roof rail by a support foot. A fastening device for the foot includes a clamping plate disposed in the channel of the rail and a bolt in threaded engagement in the plate. Holes in the roof rail extend in a row parallel to the channel. The support foot has a securing pin which extends parallel to the threaded shank of the bolt, and the pin can be inserted into one of the holes in the rail to fix the location of the support foot and thus of the transverse bar along the rail.
