Abstract: An angle adjustment device, particularly for a snowboard binding, which comprises a supporting base for a shoe. The base has a first seat for a complementarily shaped first disk, which is provided with teeth in an upper region and is associable with the snowboard in a lower region. The first disk is also temporarily associable with a complementarily toothed second upper disk, which has means for axial guiding with the supporting base. An upper plate is rotatably associated with the second disk and interacts selectively with connection means for the temporary mutual locking of the first and second disks.

Abstract: A safety device, particularly usable in ski bindings including a lever-equipped button that is selectively and rotatably associated with a central body, constituted by a lever that has a first end, which is pivoted to the button, and a second free end, which interacts, by abutment, with at least one locator provided in the central body. The lever thus arranged acts as a device for the temporary locking of the rotation of the button.

Abstract: Sports shoe with improved lateral rigidity, including a shell rigid reinforcing frame and a shell soft portion connected to the shell rigid reinforcing frame. The reinforcing frame includes bands of plastic material extending along a first inclined directrix and a second inclined directrix such that open regions are defined in the shell reinforcing frame. The first inclined directrix extends at a foot side from the tip region towards the region lying above the heel region, and the second inclined directrix also extends the foot side from the heel region towards the foot instep region.

Abstract: Closure device particularly for sports shoes including a shell and a quarter and provided with a first flap and a second flap to be secured or with straps to be tensioned and secured. The device includes grip elements and at least one engagement element which are associable respectively with the first flap and with the second flap, or with the shoe and with the band. The grip elements selectively and detachably interact with the engagement element by using an auxiliary lever. The device has low manufacturing costs, allowing to standardize the individual components and limiting protrusions with respect to the surfaces of the shoe.

Abstract: Sports shoe has a quarter associated with a shell and has improved lateral rigidity. The shoe includes at least one rigid element which affects the metatarsal region, the heel region and the malleolar region at least at the inner side of the foot. This provides a rigid structure that, for example in the case of ski boots, allows optimum transmission of forces from the leg to the binding and thus to the ski.

Abstract: A fastening device for sports shoes, such as ski boots or skates. The device comprises a plastic body and a metal element which constitutes a containment frame for the plastic body. The metal element can thus be interlocked with the plastic body, so as to obtain a device that has high stress resistance despite having a low weight and cost.

Abstract: Fastening device, particularly for fastening two flaps of a sports shoe, including an engagement element for being rigidly coupled to a first flap, a traction element, and a lever arm that is rotatably associated a with a first pivot interposed between a first pair of wings that protrudes from a base for being associated with a second flap to be fastened. The back of the lever arm interacts with the traction element to allow to lock the traction element adjacent to the base and to subsequently place the lever arm, with no forces applied to it, in the direction of the engagement element. The lever arm has a very limited protrusion and a secondary lever is provided to allow the rapid and easy release of the traction element.

Abstract: A device suitable to allow to secure the heel or the foot instep and is particularly usable for sports shoes, such as for example ski boots. The device is constituted by a support which can be coupled in a removable manner to a shell and/or to a quarter. A pair of jaws is associated with the support so that the jaws can rotate. The jaws embrace the foot instep or heel in a vise-like manner and can be activated by means of a knob which can be accessed by the user. The device is constructively very simple and allows to achieve optimum securing according to the anatomical shape of the part of the foot involved.

Abstract: Closure lever, particularly usable for sports shoes such as ski boots, ice skates and roller skates etc., including three elements: a hollow body, a threaded pivot with which a traction element is associable, and a knob. The knob is temporarily rotatably associable with the hollow body without requiring coupling pins or rivets. The lever obtained is very simple, easy to industrialize and relatively low in cost.

Abstract: A ski binding with a device for compensating the calibration load for toe unit safety release includes a heel unit with a sliding body and a toe unit which is equipped with a safety release associated with a lamina on which a main spring for toe unit calibration act. An elastic recovery spring interacts between the sliding body which supports the heel unit jaw and the lamina in order to cooperate with the main spring for toe unit calibration when the ski flexes.

Abstract: A ski binding including a toe unit which is fixed to the ski and is provided with an adjustable spring acting on the toe unit safety release member. The binding also has a plate which extends longitudinally along the ski and is associated, at one end, with the toe unit safety release member and, at its other end, with a sliding body which supports the jaw. A rear spring is interposed between the sliding body and the plate in order to keep constant the center distance set between the toe unit and the heel unit, when the ski flexes.

Abstract: An antifriction device, particularly for ski bindings including a first body which is fixed to the ski or is associable therewith and with which a second body is slidingly associated with the possibility of sliding along an axis which is longitudinal to the ski. A tab is removably or permanently associable with the second body, and a plate is freely pivoted to the tab perpendicular to the ski and at the region underlying the heel and/or tip of a ski boot. Thus, upon the activation of the safety release of the binding, the tab performs a translatory and rotary motion which facilitates the disengagement of the boot from the binding.

Abstract: A vibration damping device for skis including a rigid plate for supporting ski boot bindings and having at least two holes which act as seats for at least one rigid spacer. At least one resilient member is arranged coaxially to the rigid spacer, and the spacer interacts with a screw for interconnection with the ski and for supporting the resilient member. The resilient member has a washer for supporting the rigid plate. The device thus allows the optimum damping of the vibrations which occur along an axis which is vertical with respect to the ski, without altering the possibility of transmitting the efforts imparted along different axes.

Abstract: A ski fastening includes a rear engagement member provided with a jaw engaging the heel of a boot. The rear engagement member is constituted by a first body which is slidably associated with a base which is rigidly associated with the ski. The first body includes first members associated with the jaw, which can be activated by the boot and activate second members adapted to automatically reset the fastening after a safety release.

Abstract: A closure device, particularly usable in ski boots composed of a shell with which a front quarter and a rear quarter are associated, includes a lever which is pivoted, at one end, to the rear quarter or to a slider which is slidable at an adapted guide to which an adjustable-length rod is pivoted in an intermediate region. The rod interacts, at its free end, with a locking element which is located at the rear quarter or on the slider. A first traction element rigidly associated with the shell and at least one second traction element, which is coupled, at its ends, to a member in relative motion with respect to the pivoting axis of said lever and/or to a member which is fixed with respect to the pivoting axis, are furthermore associated with the slider. The device furthermore includes elements adapted to limit the opening angle between the lever and the rod as well as a resilient member adapted to keep the free end of the rod in contact with the locking element.
