ABSTRACT:
A light weight and collapsible luggage carrier that hooks onto the rear car bumper with adjustable length support chains with end brackets mounting on a trunk rim. The luggage carrier comes in kit form that when collapsed is conveniently stored in the car trunk available for use when needed. The carrier assembled in place on the rear of an automobile includes a "U" shaped tubular metal assembly in the luggage carrier along a plurality of cross tubes as a platform support for luggage carried thereon. Rubber bumpers on the front ends of the "U" sides prevent damage to the auto rear above the rear bumper. Two opposite side support plastic sheathed chains have metal end clips that hook over the trunk rear rim and extend to exposed chain outer ends selectively connected by "S" hooks to opposite ends of the "U" shape adjacent flattened bends that prevent the "S" hooks from moving through the flattened bends. An additional plastic sheath enclosed chain extends from a hook connection to the bottom of the rear bumper to a "S" hook connection to the middle of the rear "U" tubular member.
