Abstract
Run-away preventing device for skis. A pair of prongs are pivotally mounted at each side of a ski for alternately occupying an inactive position alongside of and parallel with the ski or an active position projecting downwardly from the ski. A generally U-shaped member is connected to said prongs and lies against the upper surface of the ski and under the ski boot when the latter is in position on the ski. Said U-shaped member is so arranged as to be subjected to tension when pressed down against the ski by the ski boot with such tension being relieved when same is permitted by removal of the ski boot to spring up away from the ski and move said prongs into the above-mentioned active position. Said generally U-shaped member and the prongs connected thereto comprise only a single movable part and hence combine a minimum of parts with a maximum of reliability.
