Multi-purpose carrier for external attachment to a vehicle.

摘要

A multi-purpose carrier (10) for external attachment to a land vehicle (15), said carrier (10) conceived for carrying objects (12) outside the vehicle comprising a retractable platform which holds the objects (12), wherein the platform is rotatably pivotable through two separate movements; one such rotational movement being about an axis which is parallel to the longitudinal front-to-rear central axis of the land vehicle (15), and by this latter rotational movement the carrying platform is lowered at an angle with one end juxtaposed adjacent ground near the vehicle (15), so that an inclined plane is formed from which the carrying platform is then rotated upwardly to a level position for the carrying position; the other rotational movement of the carrying platform is about a transverse axis which is perpendicular to the longitudinal front-to rear central axis of the vehicle (15).
