Abstract
Abstract Safeguarding device for skis and ski poles, consisting of two oppositely arranged lockable clamp members which are connected by a cable. The lockable clamp members each have two substantially semicircular recesses to receive the two ski poles. The two clamp members are arranged for locking by a lock. The connecting cable is placed around the skis in the area of the binding and around a stationary support such as a fence, a railing, a ski rack or the like.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
152 words
A safeguarding device for skis and ski poles, comprising two separable clamp members adapted to be locked together in confronting relation, the confronting surfaces of said clamp members being provided with juxtaposed pairs of side-by-side recesses having a cross section corresponding to half the cross section area of a ski pole, and a flexible cable having its opposite ends secured to said clamp members, saif flexible cable together with at least one of said clamp members defining a closed loop when said clamp members are in locked relation for retaining articles passed through said loop, said flexible cable having one end thereof secured to one end of one of said clamping members, being threaded through apertures at opposite ends of the other of said clamping members to form together with said other clamping member said closed loop, and having its opposite end secured to the other end of said one clamping member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
152 words
A safeguarding device for skis and ski poles, comprising two separable clamp members adapted to be locked together in confronting relation, the confronting surfaces of said clamp members being provided with juxtaposed pairs of side-by-side recesses having a cross section corresponding to half the cross section area of a ski pole, and a flexible cable having its opposite ends secured to said clamp members, saif flexible cable together with at least one of said clamp members defining a closed loop when said clamp members are in locked relation for retaining articles passed through said loop, said flexible cable having one end thereof secured to one end of one of said clamping members, being threaded through apertures at opposite ends of the other of said clamping members to form together with said other clamping member said closed loop, and having its opposite end secured to the other end of said one clamping member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
A device in accordance with claim 1, wherein the opposite end of the flexible cable is adjustably secured to said other end of said one clamping member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
142 words
A safeguarding device for skis and ski poles, comprising two separable clamp members adapted to be locked together in confronting relation, the confronting surfaces of said clamp members being provided with juxtaposed pairs of side-by-side recesses having a cross section corresponding to half the cross section area of a ski pole, a flexible cable having its opposite ends secured to said clamp members, said flexible cable together with at least one of said clamp members defining a closed loop when said clamp members are in locked relation for retaining articles passed through said loop, and an endless flexible cable adapted to be doubled up and wrapped around a support member to define loops at the free ends of said endless flexible cable through which loops said first mentioned flexible cable is threaded whereby to secure said safeguarding device to said support member.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
