A ski carrier is disclosed herein. The ski carrier includes a housing having a cylindrical shape with rounded ends. The housing further includes a latch located along a center portion that opens to reveal a mounting assembly located within the housing. The mounting assembly includes two rotatable cylinders that are connected through a central rod. The cylinders include clips that receive ski poles to be mounted and stored within the housing. The housing further includes a first compartment and a second compartment that is movable to reveal additional storage for skiing accessories such as gloves, boots, and googles. Additionally, the housing may be mounted on to the top of a vehicle for easy transport.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle carrier box having a lid and a base. The carrier box has first and second longitudinal sides and first and second transverse sides. The lid and the base are connected by a first and a second lid lifter, the first lid lifter being arranged at the first transverse side and the second lid lifter being arranged at the second transverse side. Moreover, the first lid lifter includes a first pivotable link arm connecting the lid to the base, and the second lid lifter comprises a second pivotable link arm connecting the lid to the base, the first and second lid lifters furthermore including an equalization arrangement for equalization of the forces exerted by the first and second lid lifters on the lid upon opening of the lid.

A vehicle roof system and a method of controlling the vehicle roof system are provided. The vehicle roof system includes an opening-closing module that is provided on a roof of a vehicle and a loading module that is provided on the top of the opening-closing module. A locking mechanism is also provided within the loading module. The opening-closing module is slid in one direction or in the opposite direction to open or close the roof. The loading module has a loading space that is separated from an indoor space in the vehicle, with the opening-closing module disposed in between. The locking mechanism supports a weight of a load when in operation for locking and no longer supports the weight of the load when in operation for unlocking.
