ABSTRACT:
A load carrier foot is intended to secure, on a vehicle roof (9), a load carrier strut, and has a support portion (7) which supports the foot on the vehicle. The load carrier foot is further provided with a clamping portion (12) which, under the action of a clamping mechanism (18, 22, 24), is urgeable against a bead (10) on the vehicle in order thereby to secure the load carrier foot. The clamping portion (12) is provided, in its central region, with a rockable or tiltable anchorage (13) in the body (1) of the load carrier foot so that a clamping member (14) located at its one end is movable into and out of engagement with the bead (10). The opposite end (15) of the clamping portion (12) is actuable by means of the one end (20) of a lever (18) pivotally secured in the body (1) and whose other end (21) is actuable by a cam section (24) on a pivotal operating handle (22).
