1. A corrugated boot (5) introducible between two pivotally interconnected vehicle parts and comprising tensioning means which are operative around the boot periphery to secure the same at one end relatively to the associated vehicle member (1) the boot end being retained in a trough or the like of a through-like frame section (2) of the vehicle member, the trough extending around the boot periphery, the tensioning means being received in the trough and engaging the latter boot end therein with tension, the tensioning means being a tensioning cable (7) whose two ends are secured relatively to one another at an adjustable distance from one another, characterized in that the connection between the two ends of the tensioning cable is by way of a pair of toggles, each of the two toggles (6a, 5b ; 13) being mounted for rotation by way of a pivot joint (4a, 5b ; 12) on a common baseplate (9), one of the two cable ends being so secured as to be offset lengthwise of the cable relatively to the pivot joint the distance between the two cable ends being adjustable by pivoting of the two toggle levers. |
