Definitions

  • FIG. 1 is a cross section of the front stop, seen from above, in closed position, of a first embodiment of a ski binding according to the invention
  • FIG. 3 is a cross section of the heel element of said first embodiment in closed position, seen from above;
  • FIG. 4 is a cross section of the heel of FIG. 3, in closed position,seen from the side.
  • FIG. 7 is a cross section alongthe line 7-7 of FIG. 6;
  • the front stop and the heel shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 comprise a casing 1 in which is housed a ball joint 2 on which is fixed an adjustable stirrup 3 serving to maintain the boot on the ski with more or less strength, according to the adjustments made, on the one hand, on a screw 4 which comprises a spring 5 which pushes a small ball 6 into a groove 7 and, on the other hand, on a screw 8 which comprises a spring 9 which pushes a piston 10 in which is lodged a roller 11 which rests in a slot 12.
  • a release lever 13 which acts on the spring 9 through the piston 10.
  • the lever I3 is added which by pressing thereon frees the boot voluntarily. It pushes the piston 10 against the spring 9 and thus frees the roller 11, which enables thus withdrawal of the boot in the vertical direction, due to the fact that the ball joint 2 is freed from said roller.
  • a ski binding comprising a front stop element and a heel element, each said element including a casing, a ball rotatably positioned in said casing with a small portion of said ball extending from said casing, a stirrup attached to said ball small portion outside said casing, said ball'having a slot positioned inside said casing, a piston slideable in said casing, a spring tending to move said piston towards said ball, a screw in threaded engagement with said casing and adjustably pressing said spring towards said piston, a member between said piston and said ball and detachably held in said slot by said piston and said heel element having-a lever pivotally connected to said casing and said piston whereby said piston can be manually moved from said ball by operation of said lever.
