Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to a means of mounting a cargo carrier such as a roof rack to a vehicle, and more particularly the invention relates to an adjustable adaptor for mounting a cargo carrier to a contoured vehicle surface.
- Vehicle cargo carriers are common auxiliary structures that are installed on vehicles in order to expand their cargo-carrying capacity.
- Cargo carriers include structures such as vehicle racks or trays, bicycle racks, luggage carriers, ladder racks, and other containers, rails or racks that may be mounted to a vehicle.
- vehicles vary in shape and size between models, and the same surface on any two vehicle models may be of a different shape and curvature - known as the 'characteristic contour profile' of the surface.
- contoured vehicle roofs or the top surfaces of utility vehicle tray side walls will often have different contours, profiles, gradients, slopes and angles. It is rare for two vehicle models - particularly for models from different brands - to have matching surface contours.
- a cargo carrier P-12 is generally not specifically designed to match the contour of a vehicle, due to the wide variation in vehicle surface contours.
- the size and complexity of most types of cargo carrier prevents production of a cargo carrier model that is suitable for a particular vehicle.
- a 'mounting adaptor' P-10 is used to account for the specific contours and to enable a cargo carrier to be securely mounted to the vehicle.
- the prior art mounting adaptors P-10 are custom-produced for each vehicle model and are machined to match the unique contour profile for a surface of that particular model, rather than machining or otherwise uniquely shaping the cargo carriers, as the mounting adaptors P-10 could serve as an adaptor for multiple types of cargo carrier.
- the present invention relates to an adaptor for mounting a cargo carrier to a vehicle surface, comprising a mounting element configured to enable a cargo carrier to be mounted thereto, a foot configured to engage with the vehicle surface, and a leg extending between the mounting element and the foot, wherein a length of the leg is adjustable.
- the foot is pivotably connected to the leg, such that the leg and foot are able to selectively pivot about at least one axis relative to one another.
- the leg comprises an upper leg and lower leg pivotably connected to one another, with the upper and lower legs being able to selectively pivot about at least one axis relative to one another.
- the leg length is a combination of the effective upper leg length and the effective lower leg length, wherein the pivotable connection between the upper leg and the lower leg is a sliding pivotable connection, and the sliding pivotable connection enables at least one of the effective upper leg length and the effective lower leg length to be adjusted, thereby adjusting the length of the leg.
- the sliding pivotable connection comprises a slot extending along a portion of the lower leg and a fastener extending from the upper leg and into engagement with the slot, and disengagement of the fastener enables it to slidingly move along the slot, thereby adjusting the effective lower leg length.
- the sliding pivotable connection comprises a slot extending along a portion of the upper leg and a fastener extending from the lower leg and into engagement with the slot, and disengagement of the fastener enables it to slidingly move along the slot, thereby adjusting the effective upper leg length.
- disengagement of the fastener further enables the upper leg and lower leg to selectively pivot about the at least one axis relative to one another.
- the mounting element comprises a rail
- the foot comprises a plurality of feet, with a leg extending between each of the plurality of feet and the rail, and each of the plurality of feet and plurality of legs are arranged along a length of the rail.
- Figure 1 depicts a prior art adaptor
- Figure 2 depicts an embodiment of the adaptor of the present invention
- Figure 3 depicts the adaptor of Figure 2 in use on a vehicle
- Figure 4 depicts an embodiment of an extendable adaptor
- FIGS 5A & 5B diagrammatically depict an embodiment of a pivotable adaptor
- Figures 6 & 7 depict embodiments of pivotable adaptors
- FIGS. 8A & 8B diagrammatically depict an alternate pivotable adaptor
- Figures 9 & 10 depict embodiments of the alternate pivotable adaptor; and Figure 11 depicts an embodiment of the adaptor comprising multiple legs.
- an embodiment of the adaptor of the present invention is considered to be 'aligned' when a cargo carrier mounted thereto is mounted substantially level (i.e. substantially horizontally) or otherwise at an angle suitable for the particular type of cargo carrier.
- the present invention provides an adaptor for enabling the mounting of a cargo carrier to a contoured vehicle surface.
- the adaptor 10 comprises a mounting element 12 that is configured to enable a cargo carrier to be mounted thereto, a foot 14 that is configured to engage with the vehicle surface, and a leg 16 extending between the mounting element 12 and the foot 14.
- a length of the leg 16 is adjustable, wherein the length of the leg is the distance between the mounting element 12 and the foot 14. This may enable a vertical height of the mounting element 12 above the vehicle surface to be adjusted. In some alternate embodiments, the vertical position of the leg relative to the mounting element 12 or the foot 14 may be adjustable. In some embodiments, the leg may be extendable/retractable. In some embodiments, the leg may fold or unfold. In some embodiments, the leg may move relative to the mounting element 12 or foot 14. Any one of these embodiments may enable the cargo carrier to be mounted to a vehicle surface that is sloped, contoured or otherwise having a changing height by using at least a spaced-apart pair of adaptors 10.
- an embodiment of the adaptor 10 may enable a cargo carrier 18 to be mounted to a vehicle having a surface 20.
- Shown in Figure 3 is a first adaptor 16A and a second adaptor 16B positioned on surface 20 to provide fore and aft mountings for the cargo carrier 18.
- Each adaptor 10 comprises a mounting element 12, leg 16 and foot 14. Adjustment of the length of the leg of each of the first and second adaptors 16A, 16B may enable the cargo carrier to be mounted while accounting for the changing slope of the vehicle surface 20, in particular the 'peak' 16A of the vehicle surface 20.
- the cargo carrier 18 must ideally be mounted substantially level upon the vehicle surface 20.
- Adjustment of the length of the leg 16 of each of the first adaptor 16A and second adaptor 16B may thus enable the cargo carrier to be positioned substantially level to the ground when mounted upon the mounting elements of the first and second adaptors 16A, 16B. Therefore, at least the present embodiment of the adaptor enables the substantially level mounting of a cargo carrier 18 to a vehicle surface 20 without requiring specific shaping or tooling of the adaptor to match a particular vehicle surface.
- the skilled person will appreciate that while the depicted example is in relation to longitudinal sloping and curvature of a vehicle surface, the same reasoning equally applies to accounting for and overcoming lateral sloping and/or curvature of a vehicle surface.
- the length of the leg 16 may be adjusted through any of a number of potential means.
- the leg 16 may comprise two parts connected by sliding connection 22 having locking means 24. Disengagement of the locking means 24 enables one part of the leg 16 to be moved relative to the other, and engagement of the locking means 24 may lock the leg 16 at a particular length.
- the locking means 24 may comprise a locking screw or locking bolt.
- the locking means 24 may comprise a clamp or pawl, manipulation of which may serve to engage or disengage the locking means and thereby prevent or enable adjustment of the height of the leg 16.
- each leg 16 there are alternative means of enabling adjustment of the height of each leg 16.
- one means may comprise a rack- and-pin, wherein a movable portion of the leg 16 may be positioned at one of a series of heights defined by holes, recesses or rack teeth, and a pin, pawl or tab holds the mobile portion at a particular height.
- the leg 16 may be threaded onto, or otherwise in threaded engagement with, a threaded bolt extending vertically either upward from the foot 14 or downward from the mounting element 12. Rotation of the bolt may therefore urge the leg 16 to move up or down, depending on the direction of rotation, in a process known in the industry as 'screw-jacking'.
- the point on the vehicle surface where the foot is to be attached may be at a particular angle relative to a horizontal plane.
- the angle of the attachment site may differ between vehicle models, makes and brands, and so it may be advantageous to provide a means of adjusting the angular alignment of the mounting element 12 relative to a substantially horizontal plane.
- the angle of the vehicle surface may also differ across a dimension of the vehicle surface, and therefore being able to configure the adaptor 10 to be attachable to a point on a surface regardless of the 'local' slope angle may be advantageous.
- the foot 14 may be pivotably connected to the leg 16, such that the foot 14 and leg 16 are able to pivot about an axis relative to one another.
- the adaptor 10 is unaligned, as the mounting element 12 is not positioned substantially level. Pivoting of the leg 16 about the pivoting connection to the foot 14 enables adjustment of the angle between the mounting element 12, the foot 14 and the surface 20, as shown in Figure 5B wherein the mounting element is substantially level, and therefore the adaptor 10 is substantially aligned. At least the present embodiment of the invention may therefore enable the adaptor 10 to be adapted to be aligned when attached to the vehicle surface 20 having a particular slope angle.
- the axis of rotation may be a longitudinal axis, being aligned with the vehicle's direction of travel.
- the axis of rotation about which the foot 14 rotates may be a lateral axis, being perpendicular to the vehicle's direction of travel.
- pivoting of the foot 14 relative to the leg 16 may enable configuration of the mounting alignment of the foot 14.
- the pivotable connection may be selectively pivotable, wherein the foot 14 and leg 16 may be selectively locked at a particular relative angle.
- the adaptor 10 of at least one embodiment of the present invention may enable an angle at which the cargo carrier is mounted to be adjusted.
- the cargo carrier will be mounted to a spaced pair of an embodiment of the adaptor of the present invention.
- Configuration of an embodiment of the adaptor may therefore enable the mounting elements 12 of the spaced pair of adaptors to be aligned such that, upon mounting, the cargo carrier is essentially horizontal with respect to a horizontal plane of the vehicle, or is otherwise mounted at the desired mounting angle.
- Figure 6 depicts an exploded view of an embodiment of the adaptor 10 having a foot 14 pivotable relative to the leg 16 (the mounting element 12 is not shown).
- the adaptor 10 comprises a foot connector 26 that connects the leg 16 to the foot 14, the foot connector 26 extending through slot 28 The foot connector 26 is able to slide within slot 28 enabling the leg 16 to pivot relative to the foot 14.
- tightening engagement of foot connector 26 with a receiver 30 on the underside of the slot enables the foot 14 and leg 16 to be locked at a particular angle.
- the means of enabling the foot 14 and leg 16 to pivot relative to one another may comprise means of providing pivoting and/or rotation such as a ball-and-socket joint, a hinge, a rotating pin, one or more bearings, or a ratchet-and-pawl mechanism.
- Figure 7 depicts an alternate example, wherein foot 14 and leg 16 are pivotably connected by hinged connector 26B.
- the skilled person will appreciate that alternate means of enabling rotation may be used without departing from the scope of the invention.
- providing a means of rotating the foot relative to the leg may enable the foot to be aligned with the angle of the vehicle surface.
- the axis of rotation may be a longitudinal axis, being aligned with the vehicle's direction of travel.
- the axis of rotation about which the foot 14 rotates may be a lateral axis, being perpendicular to the vehicle's direction of travel.
- pivoting of the foot 14 relative to the leg 16 may enable configuration of the mounting alignment of the foot 14.
- the adaptor 10 may comprise a pivot point along the length of the leg 16.
- an embodiment of the adaptor 10 may comprise a leg 16 that is an upper leg 16A and lower leg 16B having a pivoting connection 32 connecting the upper and lower legs 16A, 16B.
- the pivoting connection 32 enables upper leg 16A to rotate with respect to lower leg 16B (or vice versa) about at least one axis. This may enable the angle of the mounting element 12, relative to a vehicle surface to which the foot 14 is connected, to be adjusted, thereby enabling alignment of the adaptor 10.
- Figure 9 depicts a further exemplary embodiment of the adaptor 10 having a lower leg 16B, upper leg 16A, and pivoting connection 32 therebetween.
- the pivoting connection 32 between the upper leg 16A and lower leg 16B may be a sliding pivoting connection.
- the length of the upper leg 16A between the mounting element 12 and connection 32 may be considered the effective upper leg length
- the length of the lower leg 16B between the foot 14 and connection 32 may be considered the effective lower leg length, such that the total length of the leg 16 is the combination of the two effective lengths.
- the connection 32 may slide along the lower leg 16B, thereby altering the effective lower leg length.
- the connection 32 may slide along the upper leg 16A, thereby altering the effective upper leg length.
- the total length of the leg 16 may be adjusted, thereby enabling adjustment of the vertical height of the mounting element 12 above the surface 20.
- FIG. 10 An exemplary embodiment of an adaptor having an upper leg 16A and lower leg 16B joined by a slidable pivoting connection 32 is depicted in Figures 10 and 11, being exploded views thereof.
- the connection comprises connecting fastener 34 that extends through upper leg 16A, into slot 36 and into engagement with fastening receiver 24.
- the connecting fastener 34 is able to traverse along slot 36, thereby adjusting the effective lower leg length.
- the skilled person will appreciate that an alternate embodiment wherein the slot 36 is on the upper leg 16A exists and is within the scope of the present invention.
- a contoured vehicle surface 20 to which a cargo carrier 18 is to be mounted may be contoured in more than one dimension.
- the surface may curve laterally as well as longitudinally.
- the adaptor 10 may comprise a lower leg 16B and an upper leg 16A that are connected via pivoting connection 32, and the entire leg 16 may be connected to the foot 14 via pivotable foot connector 26.
- the lower and upper legs 16A, 16B, and the foot 14 with respect to the entire leg 16 may be pivotable about different axes.
- the axes may be substantially orthogonal to one another, such that the angle between the mounting element 12, the foot 14, and the vehicle surface 20 may be adjusted in two dimensions.
- the foot 14 may be pivotable about both a longitudinal axis and a lateral axis.
- This embodiment may or may not comprise an upper leg 16A and lower leg 16B pivotably connected to one another, as the pivotable foot may enable angular adjustment along multiple axes.
- the adaptor 10 may comprise an upper leg 16A and lower leg 16B that are pivotably connected to one another, with the upper and lower legs 16A, 16B able to pivot along multiple axes with respect to one another.
- the adaptor may comprise mounting rail 38 and a plurality of feet 14, with a leg extending between each of the plurality of feet and a point along the length of the rail.
- the legs and the feet may incorporate one or more of the previously discussed embodiments thereof.
- legs 16 are slidably connected via fastener 34 into slots 36, such that they are able to move relative to mounting rail 38. This enables the 'leg length' to be altered, as the distance between foot 14 and mounting element 12 or mounting rail 38 to be altered.
- each leg may be moved independently, enabling different 'leg lengths' to be set for each leg 16.
- the embodiment depicted in Figure 11 comprises five legs 16 and five feet 14, but as the skilled person will appreciate there may be any number of feet and associated legs.
