Abstract
A sport shoe, such as a ski boot, has a rear shaft part which can be pivoted backwards for putting on the ski boot. On this rear shaft part a tensioning device for a band is arranged, which band is anchored by means of its two ends on a front shaft part. The tensioning device has a take-up drum for the band which is connected to a drive shaft via a shiftable splined coupling. To rotate the drive shaft, a tensioning lever which can be pivoted to and fro, is connected to the drive shaft by a grip-roller freewheel coupling. A return rotation of the drive shaft is prevented by means of a return lock. The drive shaft and the return lock are accommodated in a housing which is displaceable, in its longitudinal direction, in relation to the rear shaft part. To release the take-up drum for the purpose of unwinding the band, the splined coupling is uncoupled by displacing the housing in relation to the take-up drum which is held in its position by a support bar.
