ABSTRACT:
A vehicle roof rack comprises a rack frame and a releasable clamping device for releasably clamping a ladder thereto. The clamping device includes a clamp arm which is pivoted to a rigid support and operated by a crank mechanism by moving across a dead-center position to clamp the ladder in place. Clamping members are resiliently supported on the clamp arm to engage the ladder and exert a clamping pressure on it.
