Not only can the fixed rod 1 be kept a certain distance from the top of the vehicle to prevent the fixed rod 1 from contacting the roof and causing friction on the roof, but also the fixed rod 1 can be conveniently installed on the top of the vehicle.

[0052] As shown in Figure 4 , the fixed rod 1 is provided with a connecting groove 12, and the connecting groove 12 is arranged along the length direction of the fixed rod 1; the end of the mounting rod 4 is provided with a connecting part 41, and at least part of the connecting part 41 extends into the connecting groove 12 and can slide along the connecting groove 12, so that the connecting groove 12 can guide the movement of the mounting rod 4.

[0053] As shown in Figure 5 , the connecting groove 12 is provided with a slot opening towards the other fixed rod 1; the groove wall on the side opposite to the connecting groove 12 is provided with a plurality of first connecting holes 13, and the plurality of first connecting holes 13 are arranged along the length direction of the fixed rod 1; as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the connecting part 41 is provided with a second connecting hole 411, and the second connecting hole 411 is arranged corresponding to the first connecting hole 13; the same fastener is arranged in the second connecting hole 411 and the first connecting hole 13 aligned with the second connecting hole 411, so that the mounting rod 4 and the fixed rod 1 are connected with each other.

[0054] It should be noted that the fastener is a bolt or a screw.

[0055] In some embodiments, the fixed rod 1 is hollow inside to reduce the weight of the fixed rod 1, thereby reducing the overall weight of the luggage rack.

[0056] As shown in Figure 6 , the mounting rod 4 is in an arc-shaped structure protruding away from the roof, so that the mounting rod 4 has a large compressive strength, thereby increasing the carrying capacity of the luggage rack.

[0057] As shown in Figure 7 , the mounting rack 2 is connected with a connecting rod 3 on the side facing the roof, and the connecting rod 3 is connected with the side of the mounting rod 4 away from the roof. By arranging the connecting rod 3 on the side of the mounting rack 2 facing the roof, the connecting rod 3 and the mounting rod 4 are connected with each other to realize the connection between the mounting rack 2 and the mounting rod 4.

[0058] As shown in Figure 8As shown, the connecting rod 3 is provided with a plurality of third connecting holes 31, and the third connecting holes 31 are arranged along the setting direction of the connecting rod 3; the mounting frame 2 is provided with fourth connecting holes, and the fourth connecting holes are correspondingly arranged with the third connecting holes 31, and the fourth connecting holes and the third connecting holes 31 corresponding to the fourth connecting holes are provided with the same fastener, so that the connecting rod 3 and the mounting frame 2 are connected with each other.

[0059] In some embodiments, the connecting rod 3 is internally hollow, so as to reduce the weight of the connecting rod 3, thereby reducing the overall weight of the luggage rack.

[0060] When the connecting rod 3 is internally hollow, since the third connecting holes 31 are arranged through the connecting rod 3 in the vertical direction, the side of the connecting rod 3 facing the roof and the side of the connecting rod 3 away from the roof are correspondingly formed with a first opening and a second opening, and the fastener is arranged in the fourth connecting hole after passing through the first opening and the second opening, so that the connecting rod 3 and the mounting frame 2 are connected with each other.

[0061] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the first opening is greater than the inner diameter of the second opening, and the inner diameter of the first opening is greater than the outer diameter of the fastener, and the inner diameter of the second opening is less than the inner diameter of the fastener, so that the fastener connecting the connecting rod 3 and the mounting frame 2 passes through the first opening into the inside of the connecting rod 3, and the fastener can be hidden under the premise of ensuring the connection strength of the connecting rod 3 and the mounting frame 2. It should be noted that the fastener is arranged in the inside of the connecting rod 3, which can prevent dust, water droplets and the like from contacting the fastener to some extent, thereby protecting the fastener.

[0062] As shown, Figure 9 The connecting rod 3 is arranged along the length direction of the mounting rod 4; the connecting rod 3 is connected with a clamping piece 5, and the connecting rod 3 and the mounting rod 4 are connected with each other through the clamping piece 5. It should be noted that the clamping piece 5 belongs to the conventional technical means in the art, which will not be described here.

[0063] The middle part of the connecting rod 3 contacts with the mounting rod 4, and the end part of the connecting rod 3 is located above the connecting rod 3 and has a certain distance from the connecting rod 3 in the vertical direction.

[0064] By arranging the connecting rod 3 to connect the mounting frame 2 and the mounting rod 4, on the one hand, the mounting frame 2 and the mounting rod 4 can be conveniently connected, on the other hand, the stability of the connection between the mounting frame 2 and the mounting rod 4 can be increased, and the weight of the luggage case can be concentrated on the middle part of the mounting rod 4, thereby increasing the carrying capacity of the luggage rack.

[0065] It should be noted that the connecting rod 3 is provided in two, and the two connecting rods 3 are correspondingly arranged with the two mounting rods 4. By arranging the connecting rod 3 in two, the two connecting rods 3 are correspondingly arranged with the two mounting rods 4, so as to increase the firmness and stability of the mounting of the mounting frame 2.

[0066] AsFigure 10 As shown, the mounting rack 2 comprises a frame 21 and a plurality of cross beams 22, the frame 21 is provided as two, the two frames 21 are arranged parallel to each other; the plurality of cross beams 22 are arranged parallel to each other, the cross beams 22 are arranged perpendicular to the frame 21, the cross beams 22 are connected to the frame 21, the two frames 21 and the plurality of cross beams 22 are connected to form a quadrilateral structure; wherein the cross beams 22 are arranged perpendicular to the mounting rods 4, and the cross beams 22 are connected to the mounting rods 4.

[0067] In some embodiments, the cross beams 22 are hollow structures to reduce the weight of the cross beams 22, thereby reducing the overall weight of the luggage rack.

[0068] The frame 21 and the cross beams 22 are integrally formed to make the mounting rack 2 an integral structure, thereby increasing the overall structural strength of the mounting rack 2.

[0069] In some embodiments, the mounting rack 2 is made of carbon fiber material, which has higher tensile strength than high-strength steel and aluminum alloy. Designing the mounting rack 2 to be made of carbon fiber material can make the mounting rack 2 have smaller weight while ensuring the strength of the mounting rack 2.

[0070] The assembly steps of the above-mentioned roof-mounted luggage rack are as follows: connecting the two mounting rods 4 and the two fixing rods 1 to each other, then mounting the fixing rods 1 on the roof of the vehicle through the fixing members 11; then connecting the connecting rods 3 to the mounting rack 2 through the fasteners, and finally connecting the connecting rods 3 to the mounting rods 4 through the clamping members 5.

[0071] The above-mentioned roof-mounted luggage rack has simple overall structure, convenient installation, large overall structural strength, and strong carrying capacity.

[0072] Finally, it should be noted that: the various embodiments in the specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other.

[0073] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit it; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the specific embodiments of the present application can be modified or some technical features can be replaced by equivalent ones; without departing from the spirit of the technical scheme of the present application, all should be covered in the technical scheme range of the present application claimed by the present application.
