Abstract
Abstract A rake adjusting device for the leg portion of a ski boot comprises a position-adjustable detent element (1, 2) which is carried on the leg portion (3) hingedly connected to the shell (12) of a ski boot. The detent element is movable into a first position, whereat it engages by contact with a first projecting element (10) rigid with the shell (12), and a second position whereat it disengages from the first projecting element (10) and a travel stop contact is established between the leg portion (3) and shell (12) through a stop element (20) attached to the leg portion (3) and a second projecting element (21) attached to the shell (12).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
145 words
A rake adjusting device for a tiltable leg portion of a ski boot having a shell portion on which at least one leg portion is tiltably connected, characterized in that said leg portion has at least a first stop formation defining a path along which said first stop is moved when said leg portion is moved from a first position thereof to a second position thereof and said shell portion has at least a second stop formation arranged in the path of said first stop formation and wherein said device further comprises a releasable detent mechanism releasably engageable with one of said stop formations in one position of said leg portion to maintain said leg portion in said one position thereof and disingageable from said one stop formation to allow said leg portion to attain another relative position thereof with respect to said shell portion.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
145 words
A rake adjusting device for a tiltable leg portion of a ski boot having a shell portion on which at least one leg portion is tiltably connected, characterized in that said leg portion has at least a first stop formation defining a path along which said first stop is moved when said leg portion is moved from a first position thereof to a second position thereof and said shell portion has at least a second stop formation arranged in the path of said first stop formation and wherein said device further comprises a releasable detent mechanism releasably engageable with one of said stop formations in one position of said leg portion to maintain said leg portion in said one position thereof and disingageable from said one stop formation to allow said leg portion to attain another relative position thereof with respect to said shell portion.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
72 words
A ski boot with a shell portion and a tiltable leg portion including the device according to Claim 1, wherein said shell portion and said leg portion have overlapping surfaces slidable relative to each other, and wherein at least one recess is provided in at least one of said overlapping surfaces to arrange therein said detent mechanism and said first and second stop means, thereby to conceal said device from the outside.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
99 words
A rake adjusting device for the leg portion of a ski boot, characterized in that it comprises a detent element carried on a leg portion hingedly connected to a ski boot shell, said detent element being movable into a first position, whereat it engages by contact with a first projecting element attached to said shell, and a second position, whereat it disengages from said first projecting element and the travel limit contact between said leg portion and said shell is established via a stop element, attached to said leg portion, and a second projecting element, attached to said shell.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
99 words
A rake adjusting device for the leg portion of a ski boot, characterized in that it comprises a detent element carried on a leg portion hingedly connected to a ski boot shell, said detent element being movable into a first position, whereat it engages by contact with a first projecting element attached to said shell, and a second position, whereat it disengages from said first projecting element and the travel limit contact between said leg portion and said shell is established via a stop element, attached to said leg portion, and a second projecting element, attached to said shell.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
A device according to Claim 3, characterized in that said detent element comprises a shaft carried rotatably on said leg portion and extending across said leg portion.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
46 words
A device according to the preceding claims, characterized in that said shaft is formed at a middle portion thereof with a gooseneck section located partially around said first projecting element, said shaft being accommodated within a recess defined in the inner side of said leg portion.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
36 words
A device according to one or more of the preceding claims, characterized in that said first projecting element comprises a parallelepipedal block provided in said shell at an area thereof being overlapped by said leg portion.
Claim 9
Independent Claim
45 words
A device according to one or more of the preceding claims, characterized in that said stop element is defined at the front edge of said leg portion and said second projecting element includes a second block attached to said shell away from said first block.
Claim 10
Independent Claim
63 words
A device according to one or more of the preceding claims, characterized in that said shell defines a recess at an area thereof overlapped by said leg portion, said recess defining an abutment edge adapted to interfere with the front edge of said leg portion to act as a stop element for the forward swing of said leg portion relatively to said shell.
Claim 11
Independent Claim
43 words
A device according to one or more of the preceding claims, characterized in that said shaft has one end emerging at the outside of said leg portion, said end being provided with a widened head having a slot therein for turning said shaft.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
16 words
A rake adjusting device, according to the preceding claims, and substantially as herein described and illustrated.
