ROOF CARGO SYSTEM
Save effort and time when assembling your equipment.
A roof cargo box system for transporting an article on a vehicle includes a roof cargo box and a roof cargo box carrier for mounting on a vehicle. The box includes a flexible shell for accommodating the article to be transported. The roof cargo box defines a longitudinal axis and has at least three frames which extend in respective planes transversely to the longitudinal axis. The frames are configured to receive the flexible shells spanned thereon. A scissors mechanism pulls the frames into a predetermined spaced relationship to each other along the longitudinal axis.
The roof cargo box can be expanded and compressed, so that the box itself becomes a suitcase.
DE 10 2020 004 864 B4, claims [EN] (machine translated):
1. Roof box (105) for mounting on a vehicle (115), wherein the roof box (105) comprises:
- a flexible shell (210) to hold an object to be transported (120);
- a longitudinal axis (205);
- at least three frames (215), each extending in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (205),
- where the frames (215) are designed to clamp the sheath (210) transversely to the longitudinal axis (205); and
- a scissor mechanism (220), to keep the frames (215) along the longitudinal axis (205) in predetermined distance ratios from each other.
6. Roof rack (110) for attaching a roof box (105) to a vehicle (115), wherein the roof rack (110) comprises:
- a first fastening device (505) for attachment to the vehicle (115);
