A roof rack may include a first portion including a first outer bar, a first inner bar, and a first plurality of cross bars connecting the first inner bar to the first outer bar. The roof rack may further include a second portion aligned with the first portion and including a second outer bar, a second inner bar, and a second plurality of cross bars connecting the first inner bar to the first outer bar. The first portion and the second portion may be configured to separately connect to connecting rails of the vehicle, such that each of the first portion and the second portion may be independently positioned relative to the vehicle on the connecting rails.

A custom roof top cargo carrier kit is disclosed that enables an end user to assemble and mount a cargo carrier demonstrating a desired custom length suitable for a variety of roof top mounting. The carrier utilizes multiple side rail segments in a wide range of predetermined lengths enabling assembly of cargo carriers having a wide range of fore/aft length while, at the same time, enabling the kit to be packaged in a relatively compact form. The custom roof top cargo carrier utilizes tubular shaped side rail segments joined via centrally placed assembly studs aligned with the longitudinal axis of each segment so as to form complete side rails. This means of affixation provides a solid butt joint yielding increased resistance to forces that ordinarily cause failure of prior art side rails.

A tonneau system for a cargo compartment of a vehicle comprises a tonneau frame assembly and a tonneau cover removably connected to the tonneau frame assembly. The tonneau cover comprises an elastic material that allows it to stretch over cargo loaded into the cargo compartment. The tonneau cover exerts a compressive force on the cargo to hold the cargo in place while the vehicle is in motion.

The present invention provides an adjustment mechanism for a wheel securement member of a vehicle carrier, and the vehicle carrier includes a frame and the wheel securement member swingably disposed on the frame. The adjustment mechanism includes a guiding assembly and a positioning assembly. The guiding assembly is adjustably positioned on a guiding rod configured to be disposed on the frame and includes a main body and a coupling member rotatably connected between the main body and the wheel securement member. The positioning assembly is connected with the guiding assembly and includes a biasing portion sleeved on the guiding rod, and the biasing portion is movable relative to the guiding rod between a restricting position and a release position.

The present invention relates to a carrier installed on the roof of a vehicle such as a car or SUV and to a lifting multi-joint roof carrier for a vehicle, which is used to easily load or unload an object on or from a vehicle roof. The present invention relates to a lifting multi-joint roof carrier for a vehicle, which is vertically movable up, rotatable, etc. in a process of loading or unloading cargo, to allow an object to be smoothly loaded or unloaded and have a structure with an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

A method of operating a watercraft carrier includes activating a handle at an outboard end of a base of the watercraft carrier. The activating the handle releases a locking mechanism of an upright. The locking mechanism is disposed at a distal end of the base. The method further includes rotating the upright from a first position to a second position.
