LOAD CARRIER FOR A VEHICLE

The present disclosure relates to a load carrier for a vehicle having a lid and a base connected along at least one edge by at least one hinge. The at least one hinge includes a first connection member and a second connection member. The first connection member is configured to be pivotably connected to the base or lid at a first proximal end, by a first pivotable connection, and the hinge is releasably connected to the base or lid via the first pivotable connection by a lock member. The second connection member is connected to the other one of the base or lid at a second proximal end. The hinge is configured such that when the lid is opened by pivoting the first connection member with respect to the pivot axle, a distance between the first proximal end and the second proximal end increases.
