摘要

A load-carrying rack, ski-rack or the like comprises a bar (10) which can be mounted transversely on a pair of rails (R) fixed to the roof of motor vehicle. The bar (10) has assemblies (12) for supporting it on and fixing it to the rails (R), each of which includes a body (14) to which the bar (10) is fixed. The bar (14) has an associated flexible belt (54) for wrapping tightly around the rail (R). One end of the belt (54) is anchored to the body (14). On the body (14) is mounted a buckle (52) into which the end of the belt (54) which is not anchored can be threaded. The belt (54) can be clamped against sliding in the buckle (52) in several positions which can be selected according to the dimensions of the transverse section of the rail (R). <IMAGE>
