Abstract

PURPOSE:To rapidly and easily change over the binding of the ski shoes to a locked state, partly relieved state and released state. CONSTITUTION:The locking lever 6 of the binding 4 of the ski shoes is detained and held to the partly released position which is the middle of the laid down lock position and the raised release position by a position regulating body 9, by which the rapid and easy selective use of the ski shoes to the lock state at the time of gliding, the partly relieved state convenient for walking and resting and the release state to permit putting in and out of the feet simply by the operation of the lock lever 6 is enabled.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improved tightening device for ski boots.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a ski shoe, the tightening force of a tightening device can be maintained in an open state where the upper part of the ski shoe is put in and out and a partially relaxed state for facilitating a break or walking. However, it is known from Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-18301.

[0003]

However, in the above method, since the cable of the tightening device is grasped by fingers and hung on or removed from the lug, this operation is performed in a condition in which thick ski gloves are worn in a severe cold environment. However, there is a problem that it is difficult to carry out smoothly. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above problems and enables a ski boot tightening device to quickly and easily switch the ski boot to an open state, a partially relaxed state, and a tightened state. It is intended to provide.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention hangs a cable of a tightening device between a front cuff attached to a shell body so as to be tilted forward and a rear cuff attached to be opened rearward. In a ski boot in which the cable is passed over and tightened freely on the back surface of the rear cuff with a foldable tightening lever, the tightening lever is located at the laid down tightening position.
The tightening device is provided with a position regulating body that holds and holds the partially released position in the middle of the upright released position.

As a position restricting body for locking and holding the tightening lever in a partially released position, a switchable cam member is used, an elastic member is used, and the position restricting body is engaged with and disengaged from the engaging portion. There is a method of freely forming and restricting the locking of the tightening lever.

[0006]

According to the present invention, the tightening lever is locked and held by the position restricting member in the partially released position intermediate between the laid down tightening position and the standing up and released position, and the upper part of the ski boot is held in the partially relaxed state to allow the skier to rest. Make it easy to walk and walk.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.
As is well known, a cable 5 of a tightening device 4 is laid between a front cuff 2 which is attached to a shell body 1 of a ski shoe so as to be able to tilt forward and a rear cuff 3 which is attached so as to be open rearward,
The cable 5 is formed on the rear surface of the rear cuff 3 by a tightening lever 6 which can be raised and lowered so that the cable 5 can be tightened freely. A position restricting body 9 having a cam 8 that is freely pivoted is provided by a knob 10 so as to be switchable.
When the cam 10 is rotated by the tab 10 and the cam 8 does not lock the tip of the tightening lever 6 as shown in FIG. 7, the tightening lever 6 can be opened to the upright release position. When the cam 8 is rotated to lock the tip of the tightening lever 6 as shown in FIG. 6, the tightening lever 6 can be locked and held at an intermediate partially released position. Reference numeral 11 in the drawing denotes an adjusting screw of the cable 5.

Therefore, the upper part of the ski boot is tightened by the tightening lever 6 in the conventional laid-down tightening position, the standing release position is released, and the position regulating member 9 partially relaxes the intermediate partially released position. Since the ski shoes can be held in the respective states, the ski shoes can be used by switching to the sliding state, the state of putting in and out of the foot, and the state of easily walking or taking a break.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 8, the tip end of the tightening lever 6 is eccentrically engaged with respect to the rotation center of the cam 8 of the position regulating body 9 so as to be engaged with the tightening lever 6 and is erected from a partially opened position. The position regulating body 9 is switched to the standing-up releasing position against the holding force by utilizing the pivoting action to the releasing position. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 9, the rear cuff 3 is made of an elastic spring. A position regulating body 91 is provided to engage with the tightening lever 6 so as to be retained and retained at an intermediate partially released position. Further, the position regulating body 9 is shown in FIGS. 10 and 11.
2 is provided slidably on the tightening lever 6, and this is attached to the rear cuff 3
When the engaging recess 12 formed in the
There is shown an embodiment in which is locked and held in the intermediate partially released position.

[0010]

As described above, according to the present invention, the tightening lever of the tightening device for tightening the upper part of the ski boot can be locked and held by the position restricting member at the partially released position between the fall tightening position and the standing release position. By simply operating the tightening lever, the upper part of the ski boot can be quickly and easily switched to the tightened condition when sliding, a partially relaxed condition convenient for walking, resting, etc. Even thick gloves can be performed smoothly and easily.

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1. A tightening lever, which is provided on a shell body, extends from a front cuff attached to a shell body to a rear cuff attached to a rear side so that a cable of a tightening device is stretched, and the cable can be undulated on a rear surface of the rear cuff. In a ski boot that is freely tightened by means of a ski, the tightening device is provided with a position restricting body for locking and holding the tightening lever in a partially released position in the middle of the laid down tightening position and the standing release position. shoes.
