Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and in particular to a universal roof platform bracket that is easy to install and adjust in height. Background Technology
[0002] A car roof rack, also known as a roof platform, is a support frame or component installed on the roof of a vehicle, primarily used to securely and conveniently hold luggage. This device is commonly found on hatchbacks, SUVs, and MPVs, designed to address the issue of insufficient interior space. Roof racks allow for the transport of bulky items such as luggage, bicycles, and folding beds.
[0003] Existing rooftop platforms all have a universal bracket for connecting to the vehicle's roof frame. This traditional universal bracket is typically molded as a single piece with the main body, and its height and dimensions are fixed, making it unsuitable for the roof structures of different vehicle models. Therefore, manufacturers need to design dedicated mounting brackets for different models, leading to a significant increase in mold development and production costs. Utility Model Content

Luggage rack mounting openings are symmetrically formed on both sides of the groove. Top block mounting holes are symmetrically formed between the groove and the luggage rack mounting openings. Limiting top blocks are symmetrically and vertically installed at the top block mounting holes on both sides of the bottom of the top plate of the main mounting frame. A decorative cover plate mounting groove is formed on the outer surface of the side plate of the main mounting frame, and a decorative cover plate is installed in the groove. Limiting blocks are installed on the inner surface of the side plate of the main mounting frame.
[0007] In addition, a preferred structure is that the main mounting frame has a fixing component mounting slot at the decorative cover plate mounting slot, and the fixing component mounting slot is used to install fixing components that connect the limiting block and the limiting plate.
[0008] In addition, a preferred structure is that an identification area is provided on the outer surface of the decorative cover plate, mounting plates are symmetrically arranged at the upper and lower ends of the decorative cover plate, and a cavity is provided on the side surface of the decorative cover plate facing the mounting groove of the decorative cover plate.
[0009] In addition, a preferred structure is that the top surface of the limiting block is symmetrically provided with screw holes, the screw holes are aligned with the center of the mounting hole of the top block, and the bottom surface of the limiting block is provided with rubber strip mounting grooves, and rubber strips are attached to the rubber strip mounting grooves.
[0010] Furthermore, in a preferred configuration, an opening is provided in the middle of the top surface of the limiting block, and a limiting portion is provided on one side surface of the bottom of the limiting block. The limiting portion is used to cooperate with the limiting plate to be locked onto the car luggage rack. First mounting holes are symmetrically provided on the top of the other side surface of the limiting block away from the limiting portion and on both sides of the opening.
[0011] In addition, a preferred structure is that the top of the limiting plate is provided with a slider part, the slider part is slidably engaged with the groove, and the limiting plate is provided with a second mounting hole.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Through the cooperative design of the sliding groove and the sliding limiting plate, combined with the replaceable limiting top block, the mounting bracket position can be flexibly adjusted according to the roof height of different vehicle models, which significantly reduces the manufacturer's need for mounting brackets of different sizes and reduces production costs.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0024] Reference Figure 1-9 A universal roof platform bracket for easy installation and height adjustment includes a main mounting frame 1. A vertical groove 13 is vertically opened through the middle of the top plate of the main mounting frame 1. A limiting plate 5 is slidably installed at the groove 13. Luggage rack mounting openings 14 are symmetrically vertically opened on both sides of the groove 13. Top block mounting holes 15 are symmetrically opened between the groove 13 and the luggage rack mounting openings 14. Limiting top blocks 3 are symmetrically vertically installed at the top block mounting holes 15 on both sides of the bottom of the top plate of the main mounting frame 1. A decorative cover plate mounting groove 12 is opened on the outer surface of the side plate of the main mounting frame 1. A decorative cover plate 2 is installed at the decorative cover plate mounting groove 12. A limiting block 4 is installed on the inner surface of the side plate of the main mounting frame 1. The main mounting frame 1 and the luggage rack are detachable.
[0025] Among them, the main frame 1 has a fixing component mounting slot 11 at the decorative cover plate mounting slot 12. The fixing component mounting slot 11 is used to install fixing components that connect the limiting block 4 and the limiting plate 5. The fixing component mounting slot 11 is used to install components to connect the limiting block 4 and the limiting plate 5.
[0026] Furthermore, a marking area 21 is provided on the outer surface of the decorative cover plate 2, and mounting plates 23 are symmetrically arranged at the upper and lower ends of the decorative cover plate 2. A cavity 22 is provided on the side surface of the decorative cover plate 2 facing the decorative cover plate mounting groove 12. The marking area 21 can be customized with different patterns according to the customer.
[0027] In addition, screw holes 31 are symmetrically provided on the top surface of the limiting top block 3, and the screw holes 31 are aligned with the center of the top block mounting hole 15. Rubber strip mounting grooves 32 are provided on the bottom surface of the limiting top block 3, and rubber strips 6 are attached to the rubber strip mounting grooves 32. The rubber strips 6 are used to protect the limiting top block 3 from pressing on the frame on the top of the car and causing indentations.
[0028] Meanwhile, an opening 42 is provided in the middle of the top surface of the limiting block 4, and a limiting part 43 is provided on one side of the bottom surface of the limiting block 4. The limiting part 43 is used to cooperate with the limiting plate 5 to be locked on the car luggage rack.
