Ladder Rack Lockdown
US Patent:
6290113, Sep 18, 2001
Filed:
Mar 9, 2000
Appl. No.:
9/522241
Inventors:
John Austin Plyler - Raleigh NC
International Classification:
B60R 900
US Classification:
224315
Abstract:
A hinged device that is attached to an existing roof rack, which keeps ladders locked in place without any movement in any direction. It can be attached to the existing roof rack by either pop rivets, screws or welding. Once the lockdown device is attached to the existing rack, it is hinged over the ladder rungs as well as over the bottom cross bar of the roof rack supporting the ladder, and then locked in place with a long shackled padlock. Any existing roof rack will work if the sides of the rack are as high as the top of the ladder it supports so that the hinge will fold over the ladder. The rack lockdown is made to only secure one ladder and not multiple stacks of ladders. This devise allows two ladders to be secured, one to either side of an existing roof rack. What makes this device unique, with only one moving part, is the ease in securing a ladder to a vehicle rack.
