Abstract
A portable ski wax applicator including a heat conductive box-like, wax-receiving compartment having an inlet in the top wall thereof for receipt of wax. One end of the compartment is formed with a plurality of through wax metering orifices which terminate at their outer extremities adjacent an elongated spreader for spreading wax metered therethrough. An electrical heater is mounted within such housing for heating wax received therein and a low coefficient of heat transfer handle is secured to such housing whereby wax may be received in such opening and heated to flow out such orifices as the applicator is passed over the surface of a ski to be waxed for spreading wax in a uniform layer thereon.
Claims5
A portable ski wax applicator comprising:
- a heat conductive housing formed with a wax receiving compartment having top, bottom and respective first and second oppositely disposed side and end walls;
- an inlet formed in said top wall adjacent said first end wall;
- an elongated exterior dispersion groove formed in said second end wall proximate the top thereof and extending longitudinally of said top wall with one side thereof defining a spreader;
- a plurality of through wax metering orifices formed in said second end wall and terminating at outlets spaced apart longitudinally in said groove, disposed ahead of said spreader;
- an electrical heater mounted in said bottom wall;
- and
- a low coefficient of heat transfer handle projecting from said housing whereby solid wax may be introduced through said inlet into said compartment to be melted by heat from said heater, said handle grasped to manipulate said housing to abut said second end wall flush against the bottom of a ski to cause melted wax to be metered onto said orifices to pour into said dispersion groove to run longitudinally therein and said spreader drawn along said ski to cause said spreader to spread said melted wax evenly theralong.
