Abstract
A lacing device for ski boots comprises a hooked lever-like lacing member provided on one flap of the boot which cooperates with a ring-like lacing member provided on the other flap of the boot. The hooked lever-like lacing member is hingedly mounted on a carrier plate which is provided with an aperture presenting such a contour as to pass snugly over the enlarged head portion of an anchoring projection obtained on the ski boot flap. The carrier plate is then locked in place by means of a locking bolt, in the form of a small plate hingedly mounted on the carrier plate, which engages one of the recessed portions which form the enlarged head of the anchoring projection. In this manner, the aperture of the carrier plate is practically restricted in its area, and the carrier plate (and lever-like lacing member carried thereby) is secured to the ski boot flap.
