A snow board binding comprises a base for supporting a footwear, at least one strap fastening connected to the base for restraining the footwear on the base, and a connection between the strap fastening and the base. The connection comprises a first portion of the strap fastening having greater flexibility than any remaining portion of the strap fastening.

Snow-board binding

A securing device for ski boots, including a lever associated laterally to a ski boot and provided with a cylinder for adjusting the tension of a cable which is preferably associable with a shell at its ends and externally embraces a presser and a flap. The device allows to achieve an optimum securing for optimally retaining the foot both at the instep and at the heel.

Securing device particularly for ski boots

A fastening device particularly usable to obtain the fine adjustment of the tension applicable by a lever, for example to secure the flaps of a shell or a quarter of a ski boot. The device includes, on the tie rod member of the lever, a seat for a nut which in turn interacts with a threaded pin element for coupling to an engagement hook which is associable with one of the flaps to be closed of the boot. The device has very small dimensions, weight and cost together with simple assembly of the various components.

Fastening device particularly for fine adjustment of the tension

A lever structure for securing one or more pressers and/or for closing the flaps of a ski boot, includes a device for the fine adjustment of the working length of one or more traction elements. The device includes at least one knob which can be accessed by the skier and is associated with a lever arm in an oscillating manner and without fixed connections. The knob has an internally threaded cavity which acts as seat for a complementarily threaded pawl which is rigidly associated with a traction element. The device is considerably simple in execution and has modest costs in view of the absence of pivots, rivets and other means for interconnection between the lever and the knob.

Lever structure particularly for ski boots

A ski boot composed of at least one quarter, articulated to a shell, and having, at the rear region adjacent to its own upper perimetric edge, a seat for a flap. The device includes a eccentric lever which is preferably pivoted transversely to at least one pair of wings which protrude laterally to the quarter. The eccentric lever naturally interacts with the flap and allows it to keep at least two operative positions: an inclined one for skiing, when the lever is closed, and a rearward one for walking or for adapting to the calf of the skier's leg when the lever is open.

Rear supporting device, particularly in ski boots

Securing and adjuster device for ski boots, composed of a circular winder, which is actuated by a knob and is connected for example to a foot presser, and of a vertical lever, which actuates a cable for closing the quarters; when the lever is opened, the winder is also released automatically; the adjustment of the two devices is independent.

Securing and adjuster device, particularly for ski boots

Fastening and adjusting device, particularly usable in ski boots comprising a winder for at least one traction element. The peculiarity of the device consists in the fact that a skier accessible knob is associated with said winder and has a first seat for a temporary locking element for locking to a body associated to said boot. Both the knob and the winder respectively have a second and third seats for a releasing element, for releasing said knob and body, and for a resilient member.

Fastening and adjusting device, particularly for ski boots

A securing device having a winding device associated with a rear quarter of the ski boot. The winding device has a pulley for winding a cable acting on a foot. A tab has a first end fixed to the shell of the ski boot and a second end engaging a toggle for selectively locking or unlocking the pulley depending on the rear quarter being closed or open.

Foot securing device with automatic release, particularly for rear-entry

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

A securing and adjustment device, particularly for ski boots, includes a case having a knob which can be actuated by the skier, and at least one spool, provided with an axial toothing, for winding at least one cable. The device further includes a resilient planar element which is associated, at one end, with the case and is arranged on a plane which is approximately parallel to the plane of arrangement of the axial toothing. The planar element has an angled wing which ratchet-like engages the axial toothing of the winding spool. A release means, such as an axially arranged button, is furthermore provided on the knob and interacts with the planar element so as to disengage its wing from the axial toothing of the spool.

Securing and adjustment device particularly for ski boots

The heel securing device is for use in rear entry ski boots having a shell, a front quarter associated with the shell and defining anterior lateral portions including one anterior lateral portion and an opposite anterior lateral portion, and a rear quarter articulated to the shell and defining a rear lateral portion and a heel region. The heel securing device has an elongate element having one end connected to one lateral portion selected from among the anterior lateral portion and the rear lateral portion, an intermediate portion extending around the heel region of the rear quarter, and another end connected to the opposite anterior lateral portion of the front quarter.

Heel securing device particularly for ski boots

Closure and securing device, particularly for ski boots, composed of a lever associated with a ski boot and having at least one winding assembly comprising: a pulley rotatably associated with the lever and rigidly associated in rotation with a knob which can be operated from outside, a first gear rigidly associated in rotation with the pulley and a second gear rigidly associated with the lever. Releasable engagement means being provided for mutually engaging the first and second gears to prevent the rotation of the pulley with respect to the lever and uncoupling means to uncouple the first gear from the second one to allow the rotation of the pulley.

Closure and securing device, particularly for ski boots

The locking device comprises an operating lever, pivotally connected to one of the elements to be brought together, and supporting a take-up spool for a joining element, connected at a fixed point to the other of the elements to be brought together. The spool is rotatable about an axis spaced from and lying substantially parallel to the pivot axis of the lever. There are also provided members for releasably blocking rotation of the spool at least in the direction of unwinding of the joining element.
