Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the present invention. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.
[0034] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0035] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 A roof crossbar for easy length adjustment includes a main crossbar 1 and clamping devices 2 mounted at both ends of the main crossbar 1. The main crossbar 1 has fastening cavities 11 defined along its length at both ends. In this embodiment, the fastening cavities 11 at both ends are interconnected to reduce weight. In other embodiments, the fastening cavities 11 at both ends may be disconnected.
[0037] The clamping device 2 includes a bracket 21, a clamping mechanism 22 mounted on the bracket 21, and a locking mechanism 23. The clamping mechanism 22 is configured to securely engage with the vehicle roof. The clamping mechanism 22 can be used to clamp a roof rail, such as a roof luggage bracket 21 described in CN219446872U, or to secure a roof rail to a bare surface, such as a roof crossbar bracket 21 described in CN217705662U, or to secure a door frame, such as a roof crossbar described in CN210454661U, without further limitation.
[0038] The locking mechanism 23 includes:
[0039] The supporting beam 231 is arranged on the bracket 21 and is slidably fitted in the fastening cavity 11; and the supporting beam 231 has a supporting portion 2311 arranged along the length direction of the main beam 1, the bottom of the supporting portion 2311 is roughly in contact with the bottom surface of the fastening cavity 11, and the top of the supporting portion 2311 is roughly in contact with the top surface of the cavity.
[0040] The fastening assembly is used to fasten and loosen the supporting beam 231 and the main beam 1.
[0041] The roof crossbar of the present invention is configured to have fastening cavities 11 at both ends of the main crossbeam 1, and can always support the main crossbeam 1 by cooperating with the supporting crossbeam 231 and the sliding thereof, so that the spacing adjustment structure will not cause insufficient support force of the clamping device 2 on the main crossbeam 1, that is, the clamping device 2 can provide sufficient support force to the main crossbeam 1.
[0042] There are many ways to implement the fastening assembly. For example, by providing a positioning threaded hole on the support beam 231 and a slide groove on the main beam 1, when the support beam 231 and the main beam 1 need to be fastened, a bolt is passed through the slide groove and screwed into the positioning threaded hole. Other structures that can control the fastening and loosening of the support beam 231 and the main beam 1 are also possible.
[0043] In this embodiment, to improve the degree of fastening between the support beam 231 and the main beam 1, the fastening assembly includes an inclined positioning block 232, an inclined support block 233, and a displacement adjustment assembly. The inclined support block 233 is disposed on the support beam 231, and the inclined positioning block 232 and the inclined support block 233 are engaged in an inclined sliding manner. The displacement adjustment assembly is used to control the relative position of the inclined positioning block 232 and the inclined support block 233, so that the inclined positioning block 232 moves relative to the inclined support block 233, thereby tightening the support beam 231 within the fastening cavity 11. The use of the inclined positioning block 232 can effectively increase the area of fastening contact and enhance the fastening force.
[0044] Furthermore, the support beam 231 is provided with an accommodating groove 2312, and the inclined support block 233 is fixedly disposed in the accommodating groove 2312. The top of the inclined positioning block 232 is provided with the support plane that can be aligned with the top surface of the fastening cavity 11. The inclined surface of the inclined positioning block 232 faces downward, while the inclined surface of the inclined support block 233 faces upward. Thus, the fastening assembly can not only facilitate the fastening or loosening of the support beam 231 and the main beam 1, but also provide more support to the main beam 1 by utilizing the support plane.
[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The displacement adjustment assembly includes an adjustment bolt 234 screw-driven with the inclined surface positioning block 232, and a limiting structure for laterally limiting the position of the bolt head 235 of the adjustment bolt 234. The limiting structure can be a fixed block structure, a strip structure, or other shape welded to the bolt rod of the adjustment bolt 23, which can cooperate to limit the lateral movement of the bolt head 235.
[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the limiting structure includes a limiting nut 236 fixedly arranged on the adjusting bolt 234, and the limiting nut 236 is welded to the bolt rod of the adjusting bolt 234. The bolt head 235 and the limiting nut 236 are respectively located on both sides of the bracket 21. The bracket 21 is provided with a vertical through hole for the vertical movement of the bolt. The displacement adjustment component is easy to use and has a good adjustment effect.
[0047] The vertical through hole can be a strip through hole or an elliptical through hole; the adjusting bolt 234 can be rotated in the vertical through hole to complete the screw nut transmission of the inclined support block 233, and can also make the adjusting bolt 234 move up and down with the inclined positioning block 232.
[0048] Please refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 The fastening assembly also includes a limiting block 25 and a limiting bolt 26. The limiting block 25 is arranged on the supporting beam 231, and a threaded through hole is provided on the limiting block 25. A limiting groove 17 for the limiting bolt 26 to move is provided on the top surface of the main beam 1 corresponding to the fastening cavity 11 along its length direction; thereby preventing the locking mechanism 23 from detaching from the main beam 1.
[0049] Among them, the inclined support block 233 is arranged close to the bracket 21, the inclined positioning block 232 is arranged away from the bracket 21, and the limit block 25 is fixedly arranged at a position to prevent the inclined positioning block 232 from detaching from the adjusting bolt 234. This position design can increase the relative sliding distance between the support beam 231 and the support beam 231, and the limit block 25 can also prevent the inclined positioning block 232 from detaching from the adjusting bolt 234.
[0050] The ratio of the length of the support portion 2311 of the support beam 231 to the length of the main crossbeam 1 ranges from 0.05 to 0.15, allowing the roof crossbar of this vehicle to be adjusted over a wide distance. Preferably, the ratio of the length of the support portion 2311 of the support beam 231 to the length of the main crossbeam 1 ranges from 0.08 to 0.12. Furthermore, when the stop bolt 26 is located within the stop slot 17 near one end of the bracket 21, the ratio of the contact length between the support portion 2311 and the fastening cavity 11 to the length of the main crossbeam 1 ranges from 0.03 to 0.13. Preferably, the ratio of the length of the support portion 2311 of the support beam 231 to the length of the main crossbeam 1 ranges from 0.03 to 0.05. That is, when the spacing between the ends of the crossbar is adjusted to its maximum, the support length of the support beam 231 relative to the main crossbeam 1 still accounts for 6% to 10% of the length of the main crossbeam 1, providing sufficient support for the main crossbeam 1.
[0051] According to the specific application scenario, the ratio of the length of the limiting slide groove 17 to the length of the main beam 1 can be set in the range of 0.03 to 0.06, that is, the adjustment distance range of the clamping devices 2 at both ends is 6% to 12% of the length of the main beam 1.
[0052] In this embodiment, the support portion 2311 includes two side walls and a bottom plate of the support beam 231, and the two side walls of the support beam 231 slide in contact with the side walls of the fastening cavity 11, thereby facilitating the provision of a groove in the middle.
[0053] Please refer to Figure 6 To enhance the position-limiting function, the top of the fastening cavity 11 is provided with long grooves corresponding to the two side walls of the support beam 231, and the grooves are adapted to the tops of the two side walls of the support beam 231. To enhance the firmness of the support beam 231, the bracket 21 is also provided with an L-shaped reinforcement plate 24 located at the bottom of the support beam 231. The reinforcement plate 24 and the support beam 231 are fixed to the bracket 21 by welding. In other embodiments, the reinforcement plate 24 and the support beam 231 can be connected by welding and form-fitting.
[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, and also includes a shell 3, which is used to wrap the clamping device 2, and is provided with a wrapping portion extending toward the main beam 1, and the wrapping portion is used to be sleeved on the outside of the main beam 1; in addition, the length of the wrapping portion increases or decreases with the length of the limiting slide groove 17 to ensure that no matter which actual use spacing is adjusted to, the main beam is wrapped by the wrapping portion, which is more beautiful and generous.
[0055] Please refer to Figures 5 to 9 A shock-absorbing main crossbeam 1 with a T-shaped slide 18, used for a roof cross bar, includes: a long profile 12, a T-shaped slide 18 with a wide bottom and a narrow top opened on the upper surface of the long profile 12 along its length direction, and a first mounting plate 121 and a second mounting plate 122 are respectively provided on both sides of the top of the T-shaped slide 18; the long profile 12 can be an aluminum profile or other profile used for a roof cross bar.

The T-shaped slider can be a T-bolt 4 or other T-shaped sliding structure, which makes it easier to install objects such as side tents or ski fixing brackets on the roof crossbar.
[0059] Furthermore, the adjacent side walls of the first rubber strip 13 and the second rubber strip 14 are in contact with each other, so that in addition to preventing shock and bruises, they can also provide a better noise prevention effect.
[0060] To further enhance the noise reduction effect, an arcuate groove 131 or an arcuate protrusion 141 is provided at the bottom of the first rubber strip 13 extending toward the second rubber strip 14 , and a matching arcuate protrusion 141 or arcuate groove 131 is provided at the bottom of the second rubber strip 14 extending toward the first rubber strip 13 .
