  • Patent number: 4057984
    Abstract: A locking device for a pair of skis is actuable with one hand and includes a first and second attachment mountable on respective skis. A key operated first attachment includes an actuating means having an end which is positionable flush with the underside of its ski in a retracted position and is projectible, as the key is inserted, substantially beyond the underside of its ski in an extended position. The projectible portion includes a head which is part of a lock bolt and it is sized to be received through an orifice on the end of a shank portion of the second attachment. One lock surface is formed on the inward end of the lock bolt head and a second lock surface is provided inward of the orifice on the mounting bolt shank of the second attachment. Rotation of the key causes a mating of the locking surfaces which locks the first and second attachments so that the skis are secured together.
