Japanese Patent JPS6319161

B2

A saddle-shaped retention member is arranged within a ski boot and can be brought into contact with the middle region of the foot or with a portion of a padded inner shoe covering this middle foot region. Two cable strands engage this retention member, each of which extends on one side of a shell member of the ski boot. Each of these cable strands extends through a bore penetrating a pivot pin. A rear upper portion of the ski boot is pivotably fastened to the shell member by this pivot pin. These penetrating bores are arranged above the pivot axis of the rear upper portion in spaced relationship thereto. The cable strands are fastened to a tensioning lever which is pivotably mounted on the rear upper portion. Since the cable strands extend above the pivot axis of the rear upper portion, the retention member can move forwardly away from the heel region of the ski boot when the upper portion of the ski boot moves forward and entrains the rear upper portion with it toward the toe of the ski boot. This forward motion of the retention member creates space for the middle foot region, which lifts during such a forward motion.
