The assembly further includes a plate that is parallel to the disk, the plate sliding along the length of the elongated holes, at least two holes extending through the plate in its thickness, each screw extending through a hole of the plate, and retaining elements retaining the screws on the plate.

Abstract: A device for retaining a boot on a board adapted to a sporting activity, and a boot therefor. The device includes a base, a lateral edge, a rear support element, and at least one linkage for holding the boot above the base. The edge and the rear support element each have an inner surface. One or several of the inner surfaces of the device has at least one friction plate that projects at least partially with respect to the inner surface, the friction plate being provided at least to oppose a movement of the boot in relation to the base.

Abstract: A device for supporting a foot or a boot on a sports apparatus, such as a snowboard binding. The device includes a base plate associated with a rear support element, which extends transversely between a lateral edge and a medial edge. The device includes at least one wing adapted to cover the foot or the boot, the wing extending longitudinally in the area of the lateral edge or of the medial edge of the rear support element, on the one hand, and substantially in the area of the lower portion of the rear support element, on the other hand.

Abstract: A binding to retain a boot on a gliding or rolling apparatus, such as a snowboard, ski, or roller skate. The binding includes a linkage that connects first and second flanges. The linkage includes a first band attached to the first flange, and a tightening device attached to the second flange. An abutment of the binding is fixed to the first band toward a free end of the band, so as to be located on the other side of the tightening device with respect to a fastening end of the band, thus preventing a separation of the first band and of the tightening device.

Abstract: A base for supporting a boot on a board, the base having a device for angular orientation in relation to the board. The device includes a circular opening provided in the base and a disk, the latter being nested in the opening of the base to retain the base on the board. An abutment limits an axial displacement of the disk away from the upper surface of the base.

Abstract: A device for retaining a boot on a sports apparatus. The device includes a strap provided to extend between two fasteners, the strap including a covering portion and one or two fastening portions. A cover covers the covering portion to demarcate a channel for receiving a free end of each fastening portion.

Abstract: Device for retaining a boot on a sports apparatus, the device including a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, and at least one strap connected to each of the edges by first and second fasteners. At least one of the fasteners of the device has a guide located on one of the elements that constitute the edge and the strap, a stop located on the other of the elements that constitute the edge and the strap, as well as a mechanism for locking the stop with respect to the guide.

Abstract: A device for retaining a boot on a gliding board, such as a snowboard. The device includes a base and a rear support element, the latter being journalled on the base along a substantially transverse Y-Y′ axis of the device. An abutment limits a rotation of the rear support element along the Y-Y′ axis in a front-to-rear direction. An elastic mechanism is provided to bias the rear support element in a rear-to-front direction, over a short range, from the rear position.
