ABSTRACT:
A vehicle attached carrier for mounting on the roof or trunk lid of a vehicle. The carrier includes a plurality of vehicle engaging devices for supporting a load support on the surface of the vehicle. The vehicle attaching devices each include an elongated load distributing member having a pair of relatively parallel pivot pins extending crosswise adjacent opposite ends. The load distributing member is attached intermediate its ends to the load support to transmit downwardly applied forces substantially equally to both pivot pins. First and second foot members are mounted on the pivot pins for pivotal movement about the axis of the pivot pins and for tilting movement in a direction crosswise of the pivot pins to allow the vehicle engaging surface on the foot members to conform to the longitudinal and transverse curvature of the surface of the vehicle.
