Abstract: The present invention relates to a safety binding of a boot on a ski which comprises two lateral jaws (2) mounted for movement under the force of an elastic member (5) between a closed service position in which these jaws coact with the sole of the boot (C) and an open position. It also comprises structure (3) interacting with the heel of the ski boot and having a sole grip member (29) mounted for movement by the force of the same elastic member between a service position in which this member maintains the rear end of the sole of the boot on the ski and an open position, the whole being so arranged that the opening or the closing of the lateral jaws effects the opening or the closing respectively of the sole grip member, and vice versa.
Abstract: A ski binding comprising two lateral clamps (4, 4') mounted displaceably under the action of a resilient member parallel to the plane of the ski (3) between a closed position in which the clamps coact with the sole of the boot and an open position. These clamps have when viewed from above a forwardly converging shape flaring rearwardly; the portion of each clamp adapted to coact in closed position with a medial portion of the sole of the boot forms a ramp that makes with the plane of the ski an acute angle increasing from the front (.alpha.) to the rear (.beta.). These clamps are carried by arms pivotally mounted on the ski behind the clamps. The ski boot (8) adapted to be maintained in operative position on a ski by the above binding comprises a sole (9) whose medial portion (10) has lateral edges forming ramps (11) corresponding to those of the clamps of the binding.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a safety binding of a boot on a ski comprising two lateral clamps (4) movably mounted under the action of an elastic member (28) parallel to the plane of the ski (3) between a closed position in which the clamps coact with the sole of the boot and an open position. Each clamp (4) is connected to one end of a longitudinally slidable strip (45) by means of articulatedly interconnected rods. The other end of the strip coacts with a crank (29-30) subjected to the action of the resilient member, whereby this crank has two stable positions corresponding to the respective open and closed positions of the clamps.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a brake device for skis which comprises two lateral arms (1, 1') resiliently connected to each other by a spring loop (2) and each bearing as a result of this resilient action against an incline (4, 4') forming an angle with the upper surface of the ski and which has an element (6) secured to the ski. The spring loop connecting the two lateral arms serves as a lever and is adapted to be actuated by the boot to control the movement of the arms between an active position, in which they extend below the sole of the ski (7) and are outwardly directed from the latter, and an inactive position, in which they are retracted substantially parallel and above the lateral edges of the ski.
