Definitions

  • This invention relates to an anchor for securing an object to a vehicle.
  • the invention also relates to a demountable article carrier for a motor vehicle.
  • the invention relates to an anchor and a demountable article carrier which makes use of closeable openings in the vehicle body for anchorage thereto.
  • Elastic ties and tensionable straps are known for securing an article or load to a vehicle but these invariably rely on suitable anchor points being available and are not suitable for use with many motor vehicles, for example.
  • racks or frames mounted to a vehicle roof for carrying articles.
  • Such racks or frames are usually permanently fixed to the roof which detracts from the appearance of the vehicle when the racks or frame are not being used as an article carrier.
  • permanent fixing of racks or frames to roofs invariably requires holes drilled through the roof which can result in further damage to the roof through rusting.
  • Trailers hitched to a vehicle can be used for carrying articles.
  • the towing vehicle must have a hitch for receiving the trailer.
  • a trailer hitch is an optional extra.
  • many purchasers of such vehicles decide against the addition of a trailer hitch since use of a trailer will most likely be infrequent.
  • an anchor for demountably securing an article to a vehicle via an opening in said vehicle body, which opening includes a removable closure;
  • the anchor comprising a strap having a transverse member at an end thereof, wherein said transverse member has a cross-wise dimension which is substantially greater than any gap between edges of said opening and said closure when positioned in said opening.
  • a demountable article carrier for a motor vehicle comprising: a substantially planar bumper contact plate which in use has an essentially vertical orientation, said bumper contact plate having a channel along a bottom edge thereof defined by a web portion projection rearwardly of said bumper contact plate and a flange projecting upwardly of said web; and at least one anchor according to the first embodiment tensionably connected to said bumper contact plate at an upper edge thereof.
  • a demountable article carrier for a motor vehicle, the carrier comprising: an elongate base member comprising a bumper contact web portion which in use has an essentially vertical orientation, said web portion having a forward projecting flange and a rearward projecting flange at upper and lower edges, respectively, of said web; a frame extending upwardly of said forward projecting flange; and tensionable retaining straps at or adjacent each side of said carrier comprising upper strap portions extending from an upper member of said frame and lower strap portions extending from said carrier base member, wherein ends of said strap portions are secured to said carrier, and wherein said upper and lower strap portions comprise anchors according to the first embodiment or portions of a continuous strap member.

  • an anchor is utilised in the following manner.
  • the anchor is positioned with the transverse member on one side of the opening in the vehicle body with the closure in situ.

Bottom member 85 also includes a lipped extension 96 which, with the member in position, fits in the cavity formed by return 76 and flange 97 of channel 75 and aids retention of member 85 in channel 75. Lipped extension 96 has downwardly directed tabs 98 and 99 at each end thereof which prevent sideways movements of member 85 when in position in channel 75 of bumper contact plate 61. This can be appreciated from Figure 12b where portion of tab 99 can be seen projecting below web 100 of channel 75 Tabs 98 and 99 can alternatively be upwardly directed so that with member 85 in position, the tabs engage the ends of return 76.

It can be appreciated from this figure that the member is tilted so that lipped extension 96 can locate in the cavity formed by return 76 and flange 97. Further downward tilting of member 85 locates the member within channel 75 as shown in Figure 12b It will be appreciated, however, that the member must be positioned during the process depicted in Figure 12a so that tabs 98 and 99 fall each side of the ends of channel 75 when member 85 is in its final position as shown in Figure 12b.

Abstract

On utilise des sangles tendues (64) pour fixer un porte-bagages (60) à l'extérieur d'un véhicule à moteur. On passe les sangles (64) à l'intérieur du véhicule (en règle générale, à l'intérieur du coffre) et l'on referme la portière ou le couvercle du coffre en bloquant les sangles, les éléments transversaux (62) aux extrémités des sangles ne pouvant pas passer dans l'interstice entre le bord de l'ouverture (72) et la fermeture (73). Dans tous les modes de réalisation, le porte-bagages comprend une plaque verticale simple (61) qui s'appuie sur le pare-chocs (71) et qui est munie d'un rebord inférieur (75) faisant saillie vers l'arrière (ou, dans certains modes de réalisation, un rebord supérieur faisant saillie vers l'avant). Il est possible de fixer un cadre porteur (non représenté) au rebord supérieur, de manière à orienter ledit cadre vers le haut; on peut également poser le cadre porteur de manière amovible sur le rebord inférieur, un élément du bas du cadre rentrant dans une rainure formée sur le rebord inférieur. Les parties supérieures d'un cadre porteur de ce type sont fixées au moyen de sangles tendues supplémentaires.
