Abstract

The subject of the present invention is a luggage holder for a motor vehicle, comprising two longitudinal bars (1a and 1b) fixed permanently on the roof (2) of the vehicle and transverse bars (3a, 3b and 3c) which can be fixed onto the longitudinal bars. According to the invention, each of the transverse bars is arranged to be able to merge into the contour of one of the longitudinal bars.

Description

La présente invention concerne un porte-bagages pour véhicule automobile qui comprend deux barres longitudinales fixées à demeure sur le pavillon du véhicule et des barres transversales qui peuvent être fixées sur les barres longitudinales.The present invention relates to a luggage rack for a motor vehicle which comprises two longitudinal bars permanently fixed to the roof of the vehicle and transverse bars which can be fixed to the longitudinal bars.

Dans les porte-bagages de ce genre jusqu'à présent réalisés, les barres transversales sont démontables et se fixent au moyen de pinces, de vis et d'écrous sur les barres longitudinales ou sur des glissières. Ces dispositifs, compliqués et coûteux, sont longs à mettre en place, faciles à voler et prennent de la place dans le véhicule ou dans le garage si on les enlèvent en cas de non-utilisation. De plus ils ne sont pas en permanence à disposition; ils sont inesthétiques et nuisent aux propriétés aérodynamiques du véhicule.In luggage racks of this kind hitherto produced, the transverse bars are removable and are fixed by means of clamps, screws and nuts on the longitudinal bars or on slides. These devices, complicated and expensive, are long to set up, easy to steal and take up space in the vehicle or in the garage if they are removed when not in use. In addition they are not permanently available; they are unsightly and affect the aerodynamic properties of the vehicle.

La présente invention a pour objet un porte-bagages qui élimine ces inconvénients. The present invention relates to a luggage rack which eliminates these drawbacks.

Le porte-bagages selon l'invention, est caractérisé en ce que chacune des barres transversales est agencée pour pouvoir se fondre dans le contour de l'une des barres longitudinales.The luggage rack according to the invention is characterized in that each of the transverse bars is arranged so as to be able to blend into the contour of one of the longitudinal bars.

Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention chacune des barres transversales comporte un premier élément qui est monté pivotant sur l'une des barres longitudinales et peut se loger dans un décrochement de cette barre, et un second élément qui est mobile longitudinalement par rapport au premier et dont l'extrémité peut être fixée à l'autre barre longitudinale.In an embodiment of the invention each of the transverse bars comprises a first element which is pivotally mounted on one of the longitudinal bars and can be housed in a recess of this bar, and a second element which is movable longitudinally relative to the first and whose end can be fixed to the other longitudinal bar.

On a décrit ci-après, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation du porte-bagages selon l'invention avec référence au dessin annexé dans lequel
La Figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'un
véhicule comportant le porte-bagages à
l'état de repos;
La Figure 2 est une vue semblable à la
Figure 1, le porte-bagages étant en position
d'utilisation;
La Figure 3 est une vue en plan, à plus
grande échelle, d'un détail de la Figure 2;

selon la flèche IV de la Figure 3;
La Figure 5 en est une vue en coupe suivant
V-V de la Figure 3;
Les Figures 6 et 7 en sont des vues en
coupe respectivement suivant VI-VI de la
Figure 4 et VII-VII de la Figure 5. An embodiment of the luggage rack according to the invention has been described below, by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the attached drawing in which
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a
vehicle with luggage rack at
the state of rest;
Figure 2 is a view similar to the
Figure 1, with the luggage rack in position
of use;
Figure 3 is a plan view, at more
large scale, from a detail in Figure 2;
Figure 4 is an elevational view
according to arrow IV of Figure 3;
Figure 5 is a sectional view along
VV of Figure 3;
Figures 6 and 7 are views in
section respectively according to VI-VI of the
Figure 4 and VII-VII of Figure 5.

Tel qu'il est représenté au dessin, le porte-bagages selon l'invention comprend deux barres latérales longitudinales la et lb qui sont fixées à demeure sur le pavillon 2 d'un véhicule automobile et des barres transversales qui sont ici au nombre de trois et désignées au dessin d'une façon générale par les références 3a,3b et 3c. Chacune des barres longitudinales la et lb repose sur une cale 4 et chacune de ses extrémités est courbée et en appui sur le pavillon 2, comme indiqué en 5.As shown in the drawing, the luggage carrier according to the invention comprises two longitudinal side bars 1a and 1b which are permanently fixed to the roof 2 of a motor vehicle and transverse bars which are three in number here and designated in the drawing generally by the references 3a, 3b and 3c. Each of the longitudinal bars 1a and 1b rests on a shim 4 and each of its ends is curved and resting on the roof 2, as indicated in 5.

La barre transversale 3a est formée d'un élément creux 6, de section prismatique, qui est monté pivotant autour d'un axe 7 sur la barre longitudinale la, et d'un élément plein et plat 8 qui est monté coulissant dans l'élément 6. La barre la présente un décrochement 9 dans lequel peut se loger l'élément 6 contenant l'élément 7; de son côté la barre lb présente un évidement 10 dans lequel l'extrémité de l'élément 8 peut se loger et être fixée par une vis et un écrou papillon 11. Un élément 12 est monté pivotant en 13 sur la barre lb et peut obturer l'évidement 10 quand l'extrémité de la barre 8 n'y est pas insérée.The transverse bar 3a is formed of a hollow element 6, of prismatic section, which is pivotally mounted about an axis 7 on the longitudinal bar la, and of a solid and flat element 8 which is slidably mounted in the element. 6. The bar has a recess 9 in which the element 6 containing the element 7 can be housed; for its part the bar lb has a recess 10 in which the end of the element 8 can be housed and be fixed by a screw and a wing nut 11. An element 12 is pivotally mounted at 13 on the bar lb and can close off the recess 10 when the end of the bar 8 is not inserted there.

Les barres transversales 3b et 3c sont de constitution analogues. C'est ainsi que la barre 3b comprend un élément creux 14 qui est monté pivotant en 15 sur la barre longitudinale lb et peut se loger dans un décrochement 16 de cette dernière. La barre transversale 3c comprend également un élément creux qui est monté pivotant sur la barre lb et peut se loger dans un décrochement de cette barre. The crossbars 3b and 3c are of similar constitution. Thus the bar 3b comprises a hollow element 14 which is pivotally mounted at 15 on the longitudinal bar 1b and can be housed in a recess 16 of the latter. The crossbar 3c also includes a hollow element which is pivotally mounted on the bar 1b and can be housed in a recess of this bar.

A la Figure 1, le porte-bagages est en position de repos. L'élément 8 de la barre transversale 3a est logé dans l'élément 6 et l'ensemble est replié et logé dans le décrochement 9 de la barre la en se fondant dans cette barre. De même, les barres transversales 3b et 3c sont repliées et logées dans des décrochements de la barre lb.In Figure 1, the luggage carrier is in the rest position. The element 8 of the transverse bar 3a is housed in the element 6 and the assembly is folded and housed in the recess 9 of the bar 1a by melting into this bar. Likewise, the transverse bars 3b and 3c are folded back and housed in recesses of the bar 1b.

A la Figure 2, le porte-bagages est dans sa position d'utilisation. La barre transversale 3a est déployée et l'extrémité de son élément 8 est logée dans l'évidement 10 et y est fixée par l'écrou 11; les barres transversales 3b et 3c sont également déployées et fixées par leur extrémité sur la barre la.In Figure 2, the luggage carrier is in its position of use. The crossbar 3a is deployed and the end of its element 8 is housed in the recess 10 and is fixed there by the nut 11; the transverse bars 3b and 3c are also deployed and fixed by their ends to the bar 1a.

Il va de soi que la présente invention ne doit pas être considérée comme limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté, mais en couvre, au contraire, toutes les variantes. It goes without saying that the present invention should not be considered as limited to the embodiment described and shown, but on the contrary covers all variants thereof.
