Abstract: A cyclist's shoe includes a sole provided with a device for securing a retaining cleat of the shoe on an automatic cycle pedal. The device has first securement members disposed within the thickness of the sole facing through holes provided in the sole and permitting the first securement members to coact with second securement members acting on the cleat, and a device for positioning the cleat relative to the sole permitting placing the cleat in a predetermined position of use. The shoe moreover includes a locating device with a device for locating the predetermined position of use of the cleat permitting the emplacement of another similar cleat in the predetermined position of use.

Abstract: The plate comprises a body (2) provided with securement holes (3) of the plate (1) to the sole of a shoe, and a first rear connection member (10) and a second front connection member (11). The first and second connection members have bearing surfaces (12 to 17) adapted to coact with a rear pivoting hooking member respectively with a front fixed hooking member provided on the pedal. All the bearing surfaces (12 to 15) of at least the first rear connecting member (10) are formed on an added member (18) of a material having a coefficient of friction reduced relative to that of the material of the body (2).

Abstract: The shoe comprises a sole (1) provided with securement means (5, 6) of a retaining cleat (2) of the shoe on an automatic cycle pedal. The securement means comprise first securement members (5) disposed within the thickness of the sole (1) facing through holes (7) provided in the sole and permitting the first securement members (5) to coact with second securement members (6) acting on said cleat (2), and positioning means (8, 11) of the cleat (2) relative to the sole (1) permitting placing the cleat in a predetermined position of use. The shoe moreover comprises a locating device (15) comprising locating means (16, 17) of the predetermined position of use of the cleat (2) permitting the emplacement of another similar cleat in the predetermined position of use.

Abstract: A cycle pedal arrangement comprises a cycle pedal and an associated shoe. In this arrangement the shoe has a contour in at least a region of its sole which is matched to at least one essentially complementary contour formed in a region of the cycle pedal and cooperates with the latter in at least a force transmitting manner.

Abstract: A device for releasably securing a shoe to a bicycle pedal comprises a hook member provided on a hook carrier mounted on the pedal body, the hook carrier being formed as an inherently elastic pivotal hook carrier which can be deflected in a plane perpendicular to the pedal axle.
