Abstract: Disclosed is a coupling member for a vehicle roof rack, the coupling member having a first elongate coupling segment and a second elongate coupling segment coupled by a coupling portion. In some embodiments, the first elongate coupling segment comprises a first wall, and the second elongate coupling segment comprises a second wall facing the first wall, and the coupling portion extends from the first wall to the second wall. In some embodiments, the first elongate coupling segment, the second elongate coupling segment, and the coupling portion define a receiving space configured to receive a portion of an interior wall of a crossbar member of the vehicle roof rack.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to improvements in load carriers mountable on the rear of a vehicle. Furthermore, the present disclosure relates to load carriers having a load support arrangement which may be moved between a use position and a non-use position. The present disclosure also relates to configurations of a base frame for a load carrier, a tightening mechanism for mounting a load carrier on a vehicle, an arrangement for mounting a load support arrangement on a non-round cross beam of a load carrier, an attachment device for coupling a force transfer member to a mounting portion on the vehicle, a specific configuration of a coupling mechanism for supporting a vehicle coupling portion of a load carrier on a vehicle, and a spacer for guiding a force transfer member around damageable parts of a vehicle such as a spoiler.

Abstract: Disclosed is a coupling member fixable to an end portion of a crossbar member. The coupling member includes at least two elongate coupling segments configured to be at least partially inserted in longitudinally extending interior spaces of the crossbar member wherein the interior spaces are separated by a common interior wall. Two adjacent coupling segments of the at least two elongate coupling segments are fixedly coupled to each other by means of a coupling portion. The coupling portion is configured to hold the elongate coupling segments at a predetermined distance with respect to each other to define a receiving space between the adjacent elongate coupling segments. The receiving space is configured for receiving a portion of the interior wall of the crossbar member.
