| Abstract: |
A device for removal of matter from shoes and boots is disclosed. The device includes a scraping portion, a mounting portion, and a rotatable member for mounting the scraping portion on the mounting portion so that the scraping portion can be rotated, relative to the mounting portion, between stored and operative positions, with the rotatable member being biased to urge the scraping portion toward the operative position upon actuation of a release mechanism connected with the rotatable member. The device is mounted upon, or integrated with, a handle structure, such as, for example, a ski pole, so that, when so mounted or integrated, the scraping portion is substantially aligned with the handle structure in the stored position and is rotated to a position extending in a direction away from the handle structure in the operative position.

- hand usable means;
- scraper means having a scraping portion and a mounting portion spaced from said scraping portion;
- mounting means positioned at said hand usable means; and
- connecting means, having a rotatable portion, connecting said mounting portion of said scraper means with said mounting means, rotation of said rotatable portion of said connecting means causing said scraping portion of said scraper means to be adjacent to said hand usable means when in a stored position, and causing said scraping portion of said scraper means to extend from said hand usable means when in an operative position, said connecting means including actuation means for causing rotation of said rotatable portion so that said scraping portion is automatically caused to assume a predetermined one of said positions upon actuation of said actuating means.
