Patent

CA 2459650

A vehicle carrier apparatus adapted to be disposed on an outer body surface of a vehicle for supporting articles. The apparatus includes support rails secured to the outer body, a cross bar spanning the support rails, and bracket assemblies secured to the cross bar. The bracket assemblies are coupled to the support rails and include a lower locking clamp pivotally secured to the housing. The lower locking clamp rotates between an open position and a closed position and secures the bracket assembly to the support rail when in the closed position. The open position is approximately 180° from the closed position. A detail within the housing contacts a first face of the lower locking clamp in the open position and a second face of the lower locking clamp in the closed position, thus preventing the lower locking clamp from rotating more than 180° between the open and closed positions.
