Abstract

The rigid , semi rigid or flexible container (2), opens along the line (3) and is held to the carrier by bindings (1,4) on the rear of the vehicle. The top bindings hold the container to the top bars of the carrier, and the lower bindings hold it firmly to the vertical bars.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour transporter des bagages à l'extérieur d'un véhicule par l'ajout d'un volume utile fixé sur celui-ci. The present invention relates to a device for transporting luggage outside of a vehicle by adding a useful volume fixed on it.

La technique habituellement employée est l'utilisation d'une galerie avec ajout d'un coffre rigide. Ce montage présente les inconvénients suivants: - Les galeries chargées dégradent l'aérodynamique de véhicule.  The technique usually used is the use of a gallery with the addition of a rigid chest. This assembly has the following drawbacks: - The loaded galleries degrade the aerodynamics of the vehicle.

- Le montage d'une galerie et d'un coffre de toit n'est pas très facile.- The assembly of a gallery and a roof box is not very easy.

- Les chargement et déchargements ne sont pas très pratiques.- Loading and unloading is not very practical.

- Une fois démonté, les coffres de toit sont encombrants.- Once dismantled, the roof boxes are bulky.

- Pour chaque véhicule, la galerie est spécifique.- For each vehicle, the gallery is specific.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients car ce ne sont pas les galeries ou barres de toit qui sont utilisées comme support mais un porte-cycles qui se fixe à l'arrière du véhicule sur le coffre de malle ou le hayon. Ces porte-cycles comportent deux barres ( horizontales ou légèrement inclinées prévues pour soutenir deux, parfois trois, cycles. Ce sont ces barres qui supportent la charge supplémentaire. The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks because it is not the roof racks or bars which are used as a support but a cycle carrier which is fixed to the rear of the vehicle on the trunk or tailgate . These cycle carriers have two bars (horizontal or slightly inclined intended to support two, sometimes three, cycles. It is these bars which support the additional load.

La housse, définissant le volume disponible, comporte sur sa partie supérieure un dispositif d'accrochage la rendant solidaire des deux barres horizontales du porte-cycles. La housse, étant positionnée à l'arrière du véhicule en position suspendue ne dégrade donc pas l'aérodynamique du véhicule. The cover, defining the available volume, has on its upper part a hooking device making it integral with the two horizontal bars of the cycle carrier. The cover, being positioned at the rear of the vehicle in the suspended position therefore does not degrade the aerodynamics of the vehicle.

Selon des modes particuliers de fabrication, la housse pourra être souple, semi-rigide ou rigide. According to particular manufacturing methods, the cover can be flexible, semi-rigid or rigid.

Dans la description suivante, c'est l'exemple de la housse souple qui est développé. In the following description, the example of the flexible cover is developed.

La Figure 1 représente en perspective le dispositif selon l'invention.Figure 1 shows in perspective the device according to the invention.

La Figure 2 représente en vue arrière le dispositif selon l'invention fixé sur véhicule.Figure 2 shows in rear view the device according to the invention attached to vehicle.

La Figure 3 représente en vue de profil le dispositif selon l'invention fixé sur véhicule.Figure 3 shows in profile view the device according to the invention attached to vehicle.

En référence à ces dessins, la housse (2) comporte pour son accrochage sur le porte-cycles plusieurs points de fixation (1) ;la figure 1 en comporte quatre. With reference to these drawings, the cover (2) has several attachment points (1) for hooking it to the cycle carrier; FIG. 1 has four.

Un point d'accrochage peut être constitué par une sangle plate (1) cousue à ses deux extrémités sur la housse. La position et la longueur des sangles (1) doivent permettre l'utilisation de porte-cycles de marques différentes, ceux-ci pouvant avoir des diamètres et écartement de barres variables.A hooking point can be constituted by a flat strap (1) sewn at its two ends on the cover. The position and length of the straps (1) must allow the use of cycle carriers of different brands, these may have varying diameters and spacing of bars.

Pour des chargements et déchargements aisés, la housse est munie d'une ouverture (3) située sur l'une de ses faces. For easy loading and unloading, the cover is provided with an opening (3) located on one of its faces.

Pour éviter le balancement de la housse lors des accélérations et freinages, elle dispose sur sa partie inférieure ou sur ses faces latérales de deux sangles de réglage (4)qui maintiennent la housse plaquée contre les montants verticaux du porte-cycles. La partie supérieure peut comporter une ou plusieurs poignées (5) pour faciliter la mise en place ou l'enlèvement de la housse ou pour s'en servir en tant que valise à main. To avoid the swinging of the cover during acceleration and braking, it has on its lower part or on its side faces two adjustment straps (4) which hold the cover pressed against the vertical uprights of the cycle carrier. The upper part may include one or more handles (5) to facilitate the fitting or removal of the cover or to use it as a hand bag.

A titre d'exemple non limitatif, la housse aura des dimensions de l'ordre de 40 cm de hauteur pour ne pas masquer la plaque minéralogique, 60cm de profondeur et 100 cm de largeur afin de ne pas masquer les feux de signalisations. By way of nonlimiting example, the cover will have dimensions of the order of 40 cm in height so as not to mask the number plate, 60cm in depth and 100 cm in width so as not to mask the traffic lights.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à une utilisation "loisir" pour les week-end ou les vacances.  The device according to the invention is particularly intended for "leisure" use for weekends or holidays.
