BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle carrier, and more particularly to a vehicle carrier which can be used for both ski loading and snowboard loading.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIGS. 8 and 9 show a conventional vehicle carrier that can be used both for loading skis and for loading snowboards. Reference numeral 1 denotes a carrier body mounted and fixed on the roof of an automobile or the like. One end of the mounting groove surface 5 of the snowboard 3 or ski 4 formed on the upper surface of the snowboard 3 or the ski 4 is rotatably supported by one end of the carrier body 1, and the other end is chained to the other end of the carrier body 1. An arm 6 to be locked is attached to a lower surface of the arm 5, and a cushion for suppressing articles interposed between the lower surface of the arm 5 and the mounting groove surface 2 of the carrier body 1 when the arm 5 is closed. Is an elastic base provided on the lower surface of the carrier body 1.

[0003]

In the above-described conventional vehicle carrier which can be used for both ski loading and snowboard loading, when the snowboard 3 is mounted thereon, the snowboard 3 is mounted on the mounting groove surface 2. However, when the ski 4 is mounted on the cushion 6, the ski 4 must be held down by the cushion 6, as shown in FIG.
As shown at 0, the skis must be flat and side-by-side, and the length of the carrier must be increased.
In addition, if the design of the loading platform must be similar, the design is limited, the degree of freedom of design is narrowed, and if it is necessary to place the ski pole at the same time, It is necessary to provide a space for mounting the ski poles on the side of the groove surface 2, and in this case, there is a drawback that the length of the loading platform needs to be further increased.

The present invention has been made to eliminate the above disadvantages.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The vehicle carrier of the present invention comprises:
A carrier body having a mounting surface, a holding member for covering the mounting surface, and a holder that protrudes and retracts from the mounting surface.
The holder has the holder main body and the holder main body.
A guide having a space to be accommodated below the mounting surface of the loading table body
Mechanism and the holder body accommodated in the guide mechanism
Is a spring for suppressing the
Characterized in that it comprises Ri.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG.

In the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, holders 8, 8 for holding the ski 4 vertically by approaching both ends of the mounting groove surface 2 respectively are provided. The ski 4 is vertically projected between the holder 8 and the end wall of the mounting groove surface 2 so that the ski 4 can be held vertically.
A concave portion 9 that curves upward is formed at each of both ends of the arm 5 facing the position, and a rubber band 10 for fixing the ski 4 across the concave portion 9 is provided.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the holder 8 always projects above the mounting groove surface 2 by means of a spring 11, but if an article is placed on the holder 8, By its own weight, it is immersed in the carrier body 1 against the spring 11.

The length of the cushion 6 is determined by the length of the holders 8,8.
Shorter than the length between them.

In FIGS. 2 and 3, reference numeral 12 denotes a guide mechanism provided in the carrier body 1 for moving the holder 8 forward and backward.

Since the vehicle carrier according to the present invention has the above-described structure, when the ski 4 is mounted on the carrier, the vehicle carrier shown in FIG.
When the ski 4 is vertically inserted between the holder 8 and the end wall of the mounting groove surface 2 as shown in FIG. 1 and the arm 5 is closed, the ski 4 can be held down by the fixing rubber band 10. Become.

When the snowboard 3 is placed, the snowboard 3 is placed on the holder 8 so that the holder 8 is placed inside the carrier body 1 against the spring 11 by its own weight as shown in FIG. When the snowboard 3 is immersed, the snowboard 3 is placed on the mounting groove surface 2 and the arm 5 is closed.
Thus, the snowboard 3 can be suppressed.

FIG. 5 shows another embodiment of the present invention in which a stock holding groove 13 is provided at an intermediate portion of the mounting groove surface 2, and a stock 14 is inserted into the stock holding groove 13 so as to be suppressed by the cushion 6. An example will be described.

FIG. 6 shows two vehicle carriers as shown in FIG. 1 connected in series in opposite directions by a frame 15, and these are connected by mounting hooks 16, 16.
7 shows another embodiment of the present invention fixed at 7.

FIG. 7 shows a vehicle carrier such as the one shown in FIG.
A further embodiment of the present invention is shown in which a magnet attraction plate 18 is fixed to the lower surface of the vehicle, and is fixed to the roof 17 of a car by magnetic force via the magnet attraction plate 18.

[0019]

[Effect of the Invention] Since the vehicle carrier of the present invention has the above-described configuration, the ski 4 can be loaded vertically, and the length of the carrier can be reduced as compared with the case where the skis 4 are loaded flat and arranged side by side. Therefore, not only can it be mounted on a car having a narrow roof width, but also the material can be saved and the degree of freedom in the design of the carrier can be greatly expanded.

Further, since the arm 5 has a curved portion, the strength is increased, and there is a great advantage that the arm 5 does not need to be provided with a reinforcing material.
