This foot securing device, particularly for ski boots accommodating at least one presser, comprises a grip element accessible from the outside of the boot. The grip element actuates a plate adapted to adjust the pressure exertable on the presser at the metatarsal region. This plate interacts with the presser upon the actuation of a cable winding element, activatable from the outside of the boot and adapted to tension at least one traction element affecting the presser at the foot instep region. The device thus allows the upper surface of the foot to be secured in two separate points by means of a single actuation, while allowing a separate securing adjustment at the two points.

Foot securing device for a footwear, particularly for ski boots

The present invention relates to a securing and adjustment device particularly for ski boots comprising a shell containing at least one presser arranged at the foot instep region. The peculiarity of the invention resides in that it comprises an actuation element arranged outside said shell which actuates a central body associated with a first element arranged inside said shell and having at least one inclined-plane surface; a coupling body is associated with the central body and is interconnected with a second element also defining an inclined-plane surface which interacts with the inclined-plane surface of the first element. One of said first and second elements is interconnected with the presser so as to exert a securing action on the foot instep.
