Description

Skäs support, with seeua-ite device, nnoäamuaent for rack. The object of the present invention is a Ski Support, with safety device. especially for racks.

This Support is characterized by an E-shaped pike with two parallel slots for a pair of Skis and by a central locking mechanism allowing the two Skis to be locked simultaneously.

The appended drawing shows, by way of example, one form of execution of the Support which is the subject of the invention.

fig. 1 is a view from above. fig. 2 is a front view.

fig. 3 is an elevational view showing its mode of use with a pair of skis.

In the embodiment represented, the first support comprises a flat iron 1, bent in the shape of an E so as <L to present two parallel housings for a pa.ire of Skis. Two holes 2 allow the Support to be screwed against a wall, wood or wall, inside or outside a building.

The screws can no longer be unscrewed when the Skis are in Position in the 1st Support.

In the center of the Support, a hole 3 allows a padlock 7 to be inserted, which simultaneously locks the two cleats 4 retaining each of the Skis in their housing. These cleats are also of flat iron; they are pivoted at 5, carry at one end a crank pin 6 and are notched, at the opposite end, with a notch 8 in a semicircle intended to cooperate with the panse of the padlock.

The Support also has two small stops 9, obtained by pushing the mkal, and its function is to determine the exact closing position of the two cleats, in which their notch 8 coincides with the first hole 3 through which passes the handle of the padlocks as well as their opening position, in which the crankpins are brought into the upper position.

The mode of use of this Support is as follows: 0n fixed On the wall of a Chalet or a Ski garage at least one Support or a whole Series forming a rack at approximately 1.40 m above the ground .

This support will also be used with advantage on passenger cars, where the security device will be particularly useful to prevent not only theft but also accidents which may result from skis that are not properly fixed. In this application, the base of the Skis will bear on a U-shaped Profile placed below the Support(s), with transverse Separation stops.

This Support will make it possible to constitute ski racks for Chalets and Club cabins. It is advantageous to leave the skis outside so that they do not heat up, but remain at the outside temperature. Thanks to the safety device, you can leave the Skis outside without any risk. 0n will eventually be able to build supports in stainless metal. The <B>E</B> part could also have come from a foundry.

As a variant, a locking mechanism could be provided comprising a cleat pivoted in the center of the support and having at one end a crankpin and near the other end a hole intended to coincide with a hole provided in the support to place 1 handle of a padlock.

Claims (3)
