[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-5 A multi-functional automotive crossbar, comprising a first crossbar 1 and a second crossbar 2;
[0022] In the prior art, the car crossbar consists of a first crossbar 1 and a second crossbar 2. When in use, the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2 span across the top of the car, making it convenient for car users to secure luggage to the roof when traveling. However, when storing luggage or other items on the roof of the car, the vehicle is generally tall, requiring the use of a ladder. Currently, the ladder is usually placed in the trunk of the car, taking up trunk space. Some SUVs and off-road vehicles use welding or threaded connections to fix the ladder to one side of the crossbar, which not only affects the integrity of the car, but also makes loading and unloading operations very troublesome.
[0023] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1-5 As shown, it is worth noting that the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2 are provided with grooves 3 on opposite sides. A climbing device is provided between the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2. The climbing device includes a climbing ladder 4 that is slidably installed between the two grooves 3. Slider blocks are provided on both sides of the climbing ladder 4. A latch assembly is provided at one end of the climbing ladder 4. A fixing rod 5 is fixed between the two ends of the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2.
[0024] With the ladder device in place, in actual use, the ladder 4 is installed between the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2 via sliders on both sides. When the ladder 4 is needed, it is pulled out from between the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2, and the latch assembly at one end of the ladder 4 is engaged with the fixing rod 5, thus fixing the ladder 4 to the side of the car. Items on the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2 can be retrieved through the ladder 4 to the roof. The ladder 4 can be stored between the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2, effectively saving interior space in the car and demonstrating great practical value.
[0025] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1-5 As shown, it is worth noting that the latch assembly includes a connecting rod 9 rotatably mounted between the two vertical bars of the ladder 4, and a latch 11 adapted to the fixed rod 5 is fixedly mounted on the connecting rod 9;
[0026] By setting the latch assembly, the connecting rod 9 is fixed between the two vertical bars of the ladder 4 with the nut. In use, the nut is adjusted to adjust the connecting rod 9 and the latch 11 fixed to the connecting rod 9 to a suitable angle, and the latch 11 is engaged with the fixing rod 5, so that the ladder 4 is fixed to one side of the vehicle body. This can effectively connect the ladder 4 and the fixing rod 5 together, making it safe and secure in use.
[0027] However, when using ladder 4, it will cause ladder 4 to come into contact with the side of the car, which may cause friction with the car body and damage the car body.
[0028] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1-5 As shown, it is worth noting that the ladder 4 is also equipped with a protective component, which consists of several support members 8. The bottom surface of the ladder 4 is provided with several evenly distributed mounting slots. Several support members 8 are respectively hinged and installed in several mounting slots. Rubber pads are installed at the ends of the support members 8.
[0029] With the protective components in place, one end of the support member 8 is hinged to the mounting groove, and the other end is fitted with a rubber pad. The position of the rubber pad can be changed by rotating the support member 8 by 90 degrees. Before engaging the latch assembly with the fixing rod 5, the support member 8 is rotated by 90 degrees so that the rubber pad is perpendicular to the ladder 4. Then, the latch assembly is engaged with the fixing rod 5. The rubber pad then acts as an isolation between the ladder 4 and the car, effectively protecting the car's surface.
[0030] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1-5 As shown, it is worth noting that a protective assembly is provided above the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2. The protective assembly includes a protective cover 6 and a protective plate 10 that is detachably installed on one side of the protective cover 6. The two sides of the protective cover 6 are fixedly connected to the top surfaces of the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2, respectively. A connector 7 is provided at the junction of the protective cover 6 and the protective plate 10. The connector 7 is detachably connected to the protective plate 10 and fixedly connected to the protective cover 6.
[0031] With the protective components in place, the protective cover 6 is installed on the top surface of the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2 during use, and two protective plates 10 are installed on both sides of the protective cover 6, so that the protective cover 6 and the two protective plates 10 completely cover the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2. This can prevent the ladder 4 from rusting due to contact with rainwater in rainy weather, and can also connect the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2 together, so that the force between the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2 is more balanced. The connector 7 is connected to the protective plate 10 by a snap-fit or bolt. When using the ladder 4, the protective plate 10 is removed, and then the ladder 4 is taken out from between the first crossbar 1 and the second crossbar 2.
[0032] The present invention provides a multifunctional car crossbar. Specific preferred embodiments have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. These embodiments are merely for the purpose of helping to understand the principles and core ideas of the present invention. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, the implementation schemes in the above embodiments can be further combined or replaced without departing from the design concept of the present invention, and several improvements and modifications can be made to the present invention. These improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
