ABSTRACT:
A load carrier for a vehicle has a load carrier bar which, at opposite ends, has anchorage devices for fixing on longitudinal so-called railings on the vehicle root. The anchorage devices have two clamping jaws (14) which, from opposite sides, are urgable against the railings. The one clamping jaw (14) has a sliding body (20) which is disposed in a channel (6) in the load carrier bar and has a free-going aperture (25) for a screw (21). The other clamping jaw (14) has a wedge body (17) slidable in the channel and provided with a through aperture (25) for the screw (21). The wedge body (17) of the clamping jaw (14) cooperates in the channel (6) with a second wedge body (19) which has a threaded aperture (26) for the screw. By tightening the screw (21), the wedge bodies (17, 19) are tightened towards one another and positionally fixed in the channel (6) at the same time as the clamping jaws (14) are forced towards one another.
