Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a fluff that doubles as a ski carrier in an automobile.

Conventional ski carriers for automobiles are fixed to the front and back of the top surface of the automobile roof, and skis (boards) are mounted on the ski carrier and fixed by appropriate means. A loading platform occupying almost the entire surface of the vehicle was provided, and objects to be transported were fixed on the loading platform using appropriate means during operation.

However, in any of the above-mentioned embodiments, there are difficulties in satisfactorily mounting and fixing all the different types of loads due to their configuration, and ski carriers are difficult to carry in the off-season. There was a tendency for them to be removed due to their lack of use and appearance.

Therefore, in order to remove the ski carrier and replace it with a roof rack, it was necessary to install the roof rack after removing the ski carrier.

In the present invention, the ski carrier is designed to match the vehicle, and when used as a roof rack, the cargo platform can be detachably attached to the ski carrier using a simple attachment means without removing the ski carrier. The present invention quickly changes to provide a ski carrier and roof rack that is compatible with roof racks.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

As is well known, the ski carrier 1 is a ski carrier that is framed in a quadrilateral shape, and that the ski carrier 1a is fixed to the base of the roof at four locations and placed on the roof.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a cargo platform made of metal pipe according to the present invention, and in order to be placed within the frame of the ski carrier 10, an appropriate number of support parts 2a are fixed to a frame that is almost similar to the ski carrier frame. .

The loading platform 2 is mounted within the frame of the ski carrier 1 with its upper surface parallel to the upper surface of the ski carrier 1 by the following mounting means.

That is, reference numeral 3 denotes a mounting seat for the cargo platform 2, and the mounting seat 3 has a curved surface 3a, a long hole 3b for a mounting screw, and a screw 3c, and a screw 4 and its cooperative mounting are mounted in a recess 1b in the frame of the ski carrier 1. An appropriate number of members (in the illustration, three each symmetrically on the left and right) can be attached.

Therefore, the lower side of the elongated hole 3b of the mounting seat 3 is a recess 3d, and the fixing nut 6 of the ski carrier 1 is located in this recess 3d. A mounting screw 4 is adapted to be screwed into a fixing nut 6.

Thus, by slightly loosening the mounting screw 4, it is possible to adjust the amount of dust entering the recess 1b in the frame of the mounting seat 3.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a mounting screw for the loading platform 2, and the loading platform 2 can be attached to the left and right sides as shown in FIG. It is seated and fixed on each curved surface 3a of each mounting seat 3.

When removing the loading platform 2 from the ski carrier 1, the loading platform 2 can be lifted upward (indicated by the arrow) by loosening and removing each of the mounting screws 5, and can be easily separated from the ski carrier 1.

In conventional loading platform installations, the attachment/detachment structure was complicated to prevent displacement and vertical movement, and it took time and effort to operate, but with the present invention, the loading platform can be easily attached by simply tightening and removing the mounting screws 5. It can be attached and detached by moving up and down, and the post-installation position remains normal and stable.

Since the roof rack that doubles as a ski carrier of the present invention is constructed as described above, the cargo platform can be attached and immediately adapted to the roof rack without removing the ski carrier.
In addition, it can be easily attached and detached by simply using screws, making it more useful than conventional products.

Furthermore, since it is possible to adjust the amount of dust that has entered the recess in the frame of the mounting seat, the roof rack can be attached to the ski carrier even if there is a slight dimensional difference in the size of the leaf rack.
