The lower surfaces 27A, 30C and 31C of 0 and 31 are smoothly connected to each other to form a concave spherical surface that slidably abuts the convex spherical seats 19 and 20. In each wing part 30, 31,
There are through holes 30A and 31A for inserting the second bolt 33, and ribs 30B and 31B are provided on the periphery of these holes 30A and 31A.
Extends upward, and the upper ends of the ribs 30B and 31B form flat surfaces with which the second nut 34 can abut. Through holes 30A and 3
1A defines an arc in a plan view and is arranged so that the inner sides of the arc face each other. The intermediate member 13 places the wings 30 and 31 on the seats 19 and 20 of the base member 11,
Through holes 19B, 20B and through holes 3 from the lower side of the base member 11
It is fixed to the base member 11 by tightening the second nuts 34 screwed into the second bolts 33 inserted into the 0A and 31A. The intermediate member 13 placed on the spherical seats 19 and 20 slides in the horizontal plane in the direction of arrow XX and in the vertical plane in the direction of arrow YY (see FIG. 2), and with respect to the base member 11. The direction when it is fixed can be changed in various ways. In other words, the orientation of the base member 11 to be attached to the intermediate member 13 can be variously changed with respect to the horizontal crossbar 4 and the intermediate member 13 fixed to the horizontal crossbar 4. Since the through holes 19B and 20B of the base member 11 are oval in plan view and the through holes 30A and 31A of the intermediate member 13 form an arc, both of them can be temporarily fixed by the second bolt 33. The slidable range of the members 11 and 13 is expanded, and they are fixed at a more appropriate position. Although the second bolt 33 is shown as a separate body from the base member 11 in the drawing, the second bolt 33 is not limited to the through holes 19B and 20B.
It is preferably attached so as not to be detachable and movable in the horizontal direction of the hole. The upper surface 26A of the top wall 26 of the intermediate member 13 is a part of a cylindrical surface having a smooth concave curved surface that defines an arc between the left and right side walls 25, and penetrates the top wall 26 at the bottom of the curved surface to follow the arc. Has an oval bolt insertion through hole 26B extending in the vertical direction.

The pressing member 39 is slid in the direction indicated by Z, and the cross bar 4
You can choose the best position for you. When the pressing member 39 contacts the crossbar 4 and the intermediate member 13, the cylindrical side surface 38B of the crossbar insertion member 38 does not contact the intermediate member 13 before the contact.
The relative dimensions of the insertion member 38, the pressing member 39, and the crossbar 4 are determined. In addition, the crossbar insertion member 38
Since the depth and width of the square groove 45 of the bolt 14 are slightly larger than those of the head of the third bolt 14, the head of the bolt 14 does not go out of the groove 45 in the illustrated state, and the nut 14A is turned. The bolt 14 never turns.

The base member 11 is suitable for use when the roof groove portion 2 does not have the hook-shaped portion 17 (see FIG. 2). A horizontal L-shaped stopper member 61 is fixed to the bottom surface of the base member 11 by a screw 60, and a side wall 61A of the member 61 is in contact with a side wall 2A of the groove 2. In the hook member 62 that abuts on the left side of the connecting plate 23 of the base member 11 from above and engages the side edge step portion 1A of the roof 1 from below, the bolt 64 is inserted into the through hole 63 from the outside in the horizontal direction. This bolt 64 is the connecting plate 2
The side plate 2 which is located on the right side of 3 and extends between the seats 19 and 20.
It is screwed to 4B. When the bolt 64 is tightened, a force is generated to move the hook member 62 to the right, and the stopper member 61 and the hook member 62 hold a part of the roof 1 to fix the base member 11. The member 11 differs from the member 11 of FIG. 2 in that the left and right side plates 24A and 24B have different heights.

ができる。FIG. 7 is a partial cross-sectional view similar to FIG. 4, showing still another embodiment of the base member 11. This base member 11 differs from the member 11 of FIG. 6 in that it does not have a stopper plate. This base member 11 cannot be fixed to the roof 1 alone, but a cross bar 4 having leg members 5 using this member 11 attached to both left and right ends is prepared, and bolts are alternately provided on both left and right sides of the roof 1. When 64 is tightened, the left and right hook members 62 act so as to pinch the roof 1, and the crossbar 4 can be attached.

The support member 12 and the intermediate member 13 may be integrated so that they cannot slide. Contrary to the illustrated example, between these members 11, 12 and 13, the convex spherical surface portion and the concave spherical surface portion are replaced by a concave spherical surface portion and a convex spherical surface portion, respectively, or a cylindrical convex surface portion and a cylindrical shape. The concave surface portion can be replaced with a cylindrical concave surface portion and a cylindrical convex surface portion, respectively.

ヤの取り付け作業を容易にすることができる。The leg member of the carrier according to the present invention comprises:
The base member, the intermediate member, and the supporting member are configured so that the base member and the intermediate member can slide in various directions on their spherical surfaces, and the intermediate member and the supporting member can be cylindrical surface portions of each other. Since it is slidable in the circumferential direction by adjusting the mounting angle between the respective members by utilizing such sliding, the crossbar can be securely mounted horizontally on the roof of various shapes. Further, even if the mounting positions of the base members on the left and right sides of the roof are not exactly the same, the crossbar can be mounted without applying unreasonable force thereto by adjusting the angle between these members. Therefore, according to this leg member, it is possible to eliminate the harmful effects of the high-mix low-volume production found in the prior art and facilitate the work of attaching the carrier.
