ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to an automotive ski rack adapted to carry a multiplicity of pairs of skis. The apparatus is characterized by the provision of a frame adapted to be secured to an automobile roof, trunk deck or the like, a first pair of arms shiftable toward and away from the frame for clampingly supporting skis between the frame and said first set of arms, and a second set of arms pivotal toward and away from the first set of arms, whereby additional pairs of skis may be clamped between the sets of arms. The device, in accordance with a modification, is further characterized by the ability to remove the arms of the second pair where only small ski carrying capacity is desired, and by the provision of novel lock mechanism whereby a single locking device is adapted to retain the arms of both pairs in locked condition.
