Abstract
A ski boot is described in which the body of the boot may be moved in a crosswise direction in relation to the sole, in such a way that it may be correctly aligned with respect to the ski. More particularly, the sole has at least one of its ends, the toe or the heel, joined to the body in a gliding manner, by means of an essentially prismatic connection (dovetail). In that way, the body of the boot may be fixed on a ski in the position that is morphologically most suitable for the skier.
Claims6
A ski boot comprising a body, a sole, and means for allowing said body to move in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the sole, in such a way that the movement may be registered, wherein said sole includes a tip section and prismatic connection means, said tip section being independent of the rest of the sole and of the body of the boot, a corresponding tip section of said body being connected along a sliding path with said tip section of the sole through said prismatic connection means extending in a transverse direction in relation to the sole, and further comprising means for detachably locking said body to said tip section of said sole.
A ski boot comprising:
- a boot body;
- a sole;
- and connecting means for moveably connecting said sole to said boot body, so that said boot body may be aligned in a desired transverse position in relation to said sole, wherein said sole comprises a toe portion and a remaining portion, said remaining portion being integrally formed with said boot body, and said toe portion being independent of both said boot body and said remaining portion, and wherein said connecting means comprises a prismatic joint for joining said toe portion to said boot body, and a locking means for holding said toe portion in a position relative to said boot body.
A ski boot according to claim 5, wherein said sole comprises a heel portion and a remaining portion, said remaining portion being integrally formed with said boot body, and said heel portion being independent of both said boot body and said remaining portion, and wherein said connecting means comprises a prismatic joint for joining said heel portion to said boot body, and a locking means for holding said heel portion in a given position relative to said boot body.
