PCT No. PCT/FR94/00376 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 27, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 27, 1995 PCT Filed Apr. 5, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO94/26582 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 24, 1994A device for fastening a shoe to a pedal, e.g., a bicycle pedal, is light in weight and allows a cyclist to walk comfortably when wearing the shoes. The fastening device includes a magnetic element attached to at least one of the shoe and the pedal. A metallic element, which cooperates with the magnetic element, is attached to at least one of the shoe and the pedal. A spacer system is capable of moving the shoe and the pedal away from each other in a direction increasing an airgap between the magnetic element and the metallic element. The spacer system includes circumferential ramps carried by at least one of the shoe and the pedal, such that relative rotation of the shoe and the pedal causes movement of the shoe and the pedal away from each other. |
