Abstract: A crossbar assembly is provided for a cargo rack configured for mounting on top of a vehicle. A crossbar assembly may include a pair of brackets, each bracket having a crossbar housing, for receiving and engaging one end of a crossbar. The housing may also include a pair of jaws adapted to clamp a rail on top of a vehicle.

Abstract: Described herein is a roof rack leg or tower located between a roof rack cross bar and a vehicle rail including two opposing jaws, with the inner jaw having two degrees of movement. A rack incorporating the leg is also described.

Abstract: The invention relates to a resilient infill for positioning in a channel in a crossbar of a roof rack or load carrier. The infill comprises a flexible upper portion and a base comprising a bottom. A pair of flexible, opposing side walls extend from the bottom and curve upwardly and outwardly to meet with outer edges of the flexible upper portion. The width of the upper portion is greater than the width of the bottom and the infill has a substantially hollow interior. The infill is compressible and makes minimal wind noise when positioned in the crossbar of a roof rack located on a moving vehicle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a roof box 1 for mounting to a vehicle via roof racks 100. The roof box 1 includes a base section 3 mountable to a vehicle roof or roof rack 100 and a top section 2 that is movable relative to the base section 3 to allow the roof box 1 to be opened and closed. The roof box 1 includes no external protruding seam 4 with the seam 4 flush with the exterior of the roof box 1. The roof box 1 also includes a curved seam 4, double skinned top 2 and double acting action hinge 12 design that all combine to provide improved aesthetics, lower weight, reduced aerodynamic drag, better fuel efficiency and equivalent strength, rigidity and loadings to the art.

Abstract: A leg is described to attach a roof rack crossbar to a vehicle rail. The leg is particularly suited to fitting a roof rack to a flush rail on a vehicle although may be used on other rail types. Also described in a kit and roof rack utilizing the leg.

Abstract: The application relates to an adjustment mechanism for altering the position of roof box clamps and/or the roof box position on a vehicle. Adjustment of the roof box position relative to a vehicle may be completed without unclamping the roof box from the vehicle roof rack or racks. The clamp or clamps may also be positioned easily relative to roof rack positions prior to fitting.

Abstract: The invention relates to a roof box 1 for mounting to a vehicle. The roof box 1 includes a securing mechanism 10 that enables the top section 2 of the box 1 to be secured to the base section 3 of the box 1 via a single locking point and which urges the top section 2 from the base section 3 when the roof box 1 securing mechanism 10 is opened allowing the user access to lift the top section 2 open.

Abstract: A roof box 1 for mounting to a vehicle is described. The roof box 1 includes a clamping mechanism that enables the roof box 1 to be secured to a vehicle via one or more externally accessed actuating handles 5. A crossbar interchangeable clamp shape is also described for linking an accessory item such as a roof box 1 to a roof rack cross bar.

Abstract: A bike rack may include an elongate body having a first end portion and a second end portion, a rear wheel receiver connected to the body adjacent the second end portion, and a fork mount device connected to the body adjacent the first end portion. The fork mount device may include a body and a pair of retractable axle portions configured to move between a retracted position in which the axle portions are substantially contained in the body, and an extended position in which the axle portions extend sufficiently to engage axle holes of a 15QR bicycle fork.

Abstract: A leg assembly is described that links a roof rack bar to a vehicle roof. The leg assembly utilises a T-bar member linked to a rocker member and via a biasing arrangement, the T-bar flanges impinge with the bar flanges to lock the leg assembly in place or optionally move the leg assembly along the bar length by forcing the T-bar member flanges up from the bar flanges until the desired position is reached before release and re-locking.

The roof rack also includes a crossbar, held and supported at each end by the crossbar housing of each leg, and further includes an extension means for adjusting the length of the roof rack between the legs.

Abstract: A crossbar bracket and a crossbar assembly for a roof rack are provided. The crossbar bracket comprises a crossbar housing, for receiving and engaging one end of a crossbar, and rail engaging means for coupling the bracket to a fixed rail located on the roof of a vehicle. The rail engaging means includes a pair of jaws and is adapted to urge at least one of the jaws towards the other so as to grip a roof rail. The crossbar assembly includes a crossbar having first and second ends, and first and second brackets. The crossbar housing of the first bracket is configured to engage the first end of the crossbar and the crossbar housing of the second bracket is configured to engage the second end of the crossbar. The rail engaging means of each bracket is configured to engage with a corresponding roof rail, so that the crossbar is able to be attached to a pair of opposing roof rails by the bracket(s) of the invention even where the opposing roof rails are not quite parallel.
