Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
168 words
A device for storage of skis, comprising a one-piece holder of a synthetic material and which is adapted to be attached to a support to provide at least one compartment for the storage of a pair of skis, said holder comprising at least two downwardly-opening, hollow arms which extend at right angles to the said support and are spaced by an amount corresponding to the width of the skis, an upwardly-opening spacer element which extends integrally between the arms at a distance from said support substantially equal to the height dimension of the skis in use, and a displacable closure element which extends transversely between the free ends of said arms, a back plate integral with and from which said arms extend at right angles, connected to and reinforced by said spacer element, said spacer element comprising an upwardly-open channel form, said closure element comprising a finger element pivotable about a horizontal axis on at least one of said arms and in spaced relation from said spacer element.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
168 words
A device for storage of skis, comprising a one-piece holder of a synthetic material and which is adapted to be attached to a support to provide at least one compartment for the storage of a pair of skis, said holder comprising at least two downwardly-opening, hollow arms which extend at right angles to the said support and are spaced by an amount corresponding to the width of the skis, an upwardly-opening spacer element which extends integrally between the arms at a distance from said support substantially equal to the height dimension of the skis in use, and a displacable closure element which extends transversely between the free ends of said arms, a back plate integral with and from which said arms extend at right angles, connected to and reinforced by said spacer element, said spacer element comprising an upwardly-open channel form, said closure element comprising a finger element pivotable about a horizontal axis on at least one of said arms and in spaced relation from said spacer element.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
76 words
The structure as claimed in claim 1 including a third arm parallel to said two arms, a second upwardly opening spacer element integral between one of said two arms, and said third arm and in alignment with said first-mentioned spacer element, and a second displaceable closure element similar in structure and function to that first-mentioned and extending between said third arm and said one adjacent arm, the device comprising two adjacent and similarly-functioning, independent, ski-receiving compartments.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
A device according to claim 1, further including a lock for holding the closure element in a closed position.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
23 words
A device according to claim 1, further including a free standing framework comprising bearers to which a plurality of said holders are secured.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
