Abstract

Uppfinningen avser ett nedsänkt takräcke (6) med tvärgående bärelement (2) för uppbärande av last (8) som har via försänkningsdelar (1) sänkt lastyta (3) med bibehållen höjd vid fästelementen (5). Eftersom de tvärgående bärelementet behåller sin ursprungliga höjd vid ändarna kan de användas på fordonets befintliga fästanordningar (5). Detta gör också att vinkeln (4) blir ett naturligt laststopp för säkring av last i sidled.För att uppnå största möjliga lastyta mellan försänkningsdelarna (1) kan lastytans längd vara justerbar (14). Försänkningsdelarna kan vara justerbara i höjdled (15) för att få lastytan på önskat avstånd till fordons tak (11).The invention relates to a sunken roof rail (6) with transverse support elements (2) for supporting loads (8) which have, via countersunk parts (1), lowered load surface (3) with maintained height at the fastening elements (5). Since the transverse support elements retain their original height at the ends, they can be used on the vehicle's existing fastening devices (5). This also means that the angle (4) becomes a natural load stop for securing loads laterally. To achieve the largest possible load surface between the recess parts (1), the length of the load surface can be adjustable (14). The lowering parts can be adjustable in height (15) to bring the load surface at the desired distance to the vehicle's roof (11).

Description

Problemlösning Föreliggande uppfinning löser problemen med den kända tekniken med de efterföljande patentkraven. Den löser också problemet med glidande last eftersom det tvärgående bärelementet (2) får ett naturligt laststopp (4) som säkrar lasten i sidled. Uppfinningen är både billig att tillverka och passar de flesta fästanordningar som finns på dagens marknad, så att inga modifieringar behöver göras. I alla kända tekniker försöker man få lastytan (2) närmare fordonets tak genom att ändra eller försänka fordonets takreling och fästelement (5) med ett bibehållet rakt tvärgående bärelement (20). Om man istället försänker det tvärgående bärelementet (2) med försänkningsdelar (1) så får man bibehållen höjd (10) på sidorna och man kan behålla bilens original takrelings och fästelement (5) vilket gör att det passar alla bilar direkt utan åverkan på fordonet. Vinkeln (4) som uppkommer med den här konstruktionen blir också ett naturligt laststopp. Problem Solving The present invention solves the prior art problems of the appended claims. It also solves the problem of sliding loads because the transverse support element (2) has a natural load stop (4) which secures the load laterally. The invention is both inexpensive to manufacture and fits most fasteners on the market today, so that no modifications need to be made. In all known techniques one tries to get the load surface (2) closer to the roof of the vehicle by changing or lowering the vehicle's roof railing and fastening elements (5) with a maintained straight transverse support element (20). If you instead countersink the transverse support element (2) with countersunk parts (1), you get the same height (10) on the sides and you can keep the car's original roof rails and fasteners (5), which means that it fits all cars directly without damaging the vehicle. The angle (4) that arises with this construction also becomes a natural load stop.

Detaljbeskrivning av uppfinning Via en försänkningsdel (1) på de tvärgående bärelementen (2) får man lastytan (3) närmare taket. Försänkningsdelen erhålls via minst en vinkel (4) som kan erhållas av tekniker såsom bockning/svetsning. Detta gör att bärelementens ändar behåller sina ursprungliga konstruktioner och man kan då använda de befintliga lasthållarfästen (5) som redan finns på fordonet och på marknaden, vilket gör att man inte behöver byta dessa. I och med att det blir en vinkel på lasthållarröret så får man dessutom ett naturligt stopp (4) att säkra lasten i sidled som man annars får köpa som tillbehör till dagens raka lasthållarrör (20). För att kunna få maximal lastyta mellan försänkningsdelarna (1) kan den nedsänkta lastytans längd vara anpassningsbar efter bredd på fordons tak med en teleskopisk skjutbar justering (14) så att man kan få lastyta (3) ända till försänkningsdelarna (1). Försänkningsdelarnas längd kan vara teleskopiskt skjutbart justerbarai höjdled (15) för att uppnå önskad nedsänkning beroende på fästanordningarnas (5) konstruktion och utformning av fordons tak (7). Det teleskopiska kan bestå av ett mindre rör som löper i lasthållarröret (2) vilken kan vara fast monterat i en av delarna eller bestå av en gängad hylsa. För att låsa det teleskopiska i höjdled (15) kan man använda en låssprint eller en låsbar anordning som minskar det omslutande godsets storlek för att uppnå klämfunktion.Detailed description of the invention Via a countersunk part (1) on the transverse support elements (2), the loading surface (3) is brought closer to the roof. The countersunk part is obtained via at least one angle (4) which can be obtained by techniques such as bending / welding. This means that the ends of the support elements retain their original constructions and you can then use the existing load carrier brackets (5) that are already on the vehicle and on the market, which means that you do not need to replace them. As it becomes an angle on the load carrier pipe, you also get a natural stop (4) to secure the load sideways, which you can otherwise buy as an accessory for today's straight load carrier pipe (20). In order to have a maximum load surface between the countersunk parts (1), the length of the lowered load surface can be adapted to the width of the vehicle's roof with a telescopic sliding adjustment (14) so that you can get a load surface (3) all the way to the countersunk parts (1). The length of the countersunk parts can be telescopically slidably adjustable in height (15) to achieve the desired immersion depending on the construction of the fastening devices (5) and the design of the vehicle roof (7). The telescopic may consist of a smaller tube running in the load carrier tube (2) which may be fixedly mounted in one of the parts or consist of a threaded sleeve. To lock the telescopic height (15), you can use a locking pin or a lockable device that reduces the size of the enclosing goods to achieve clamping function.
