Abstract: The invention relates to a front jaw (1) comprising a housing (2), in which is housed a release spring (40). The spring loads a pull rod (10) extending through it, which pull rod acts through a release plate (13) onto the shorter lever arms (36) of two toggle levers (35) which are pivotal about vertical axes (34) on a support part (20), and the longer lever arms of which are designed as sole holders (37). The support part (20) has an opening (21) for the pull rod (10) and has a front support surface (23) which partly rests on a rear crosswall (3) of the housing (2).

Abstract: A ski and ski-binding combination. The ski has several holes for receiving therein fastening screws for the selective fastening of ski-binding elements arranged in the ski in the binding-installation area. The holes are covered, however, are marked to the outside by markings. The arrangement of holes for the ski-binding elements is adjusted to the length of the ski and chosen such that the ski bindings are suited to receive only a limited number of successive ski-boot sizes.

Abstract: A front jaw for a ski binding having a housing (2) in which is housed a release spring (40). The release spring (40) loads a pull rod (10) extending through the release spring, which pull rod acts onto the shorter lever arms (36) of two toggle levers (35) through a release plate (13), which toggle levers are pivotal about vertical axes (34) on a bearing part (20) and the longer lever arms of which toggle levers are designed as sole holders (37). The bearing part (20) has a through opening (21) for the pull rod (10) and has at its lower end section a rearwardly directed projection (31) for abutment against the release plate (13). The release plate (13) has at a lower section thereof (14) on a side opposing the bearing part (20) a control surface (15) which, when viewed in a longitudinal cross section, extends upwardly and forwardly. The rearwardly directed projection (31) on the bearing part engages a control surface (15) when an upwardly directed force to the sole holders (37) occurs.

Abstract: A ski with a core and at least one upper and one lower surface layer. Grooves for receiving parts of a ski binding are recessed in the upper side of the core. The receiving parts each consist of a fixed holding part and an elastic sleeve surrounding the holding part. A spacer element rests on the receiving part, which spacer element is used as support for the base plate of a ski binding. In order to facilitate the mounting of the ski binding, each holding part has at least one upwardly bent section, with the upwardly bent section extending in the installed state of the receiving part at least to the underside of the upper surface layer of the ski.

Abstract: A ski binding which includes a front jaw and a heel holder and a connecting element connected to and extending between the front jaw and the heel holder. In order to reduce the space needed for packaging the above type of ski binding, the invention provides that the connecting element is composed of first and second parts. The first part has a plastic coating having a recess therein extending in longitudinal direction of the connecting element. The first part also has two bolts with enlarged heads thereon, said bolts being received in keyhole-like recesses provided in the second part associated with the heel holder.

Abstract: The invention relates to a shock absorber for fastening of ski bindings to a ski (1) having an upper belt (3).Such shock absorbers are already known in the form of multi-layered strip-like inserts. A disadvantage of this known design is, since the strip-like inserts must be built in during the manufacture of the ski, an adjustment to different hole arrangements of ski binding parts.The goal of the invention is to enable an individual adjustment for shock absorbers of this type even when the ski has already been manufactured and for many different hole arrangements of ski binding parts.The set purpose is attained according to the invention by the insert (9, 10, 11) being stored in a sleeve (7), which in turn is inserted into a bore (6) of the ski (1) and is screwed into said bore (6). Each fastening screw is thereby constructed as a metal screw (12), which can with its thread be screwed to the high strength layer (11).

Abstract: A front jaw having two laterally spaced toggle levers which can be swung out against the force of a release spring housed in a housing and through which housing extends a pull rod. In order to cause in this front jaw during a backward twisting fall an initial tension of the release spring and thus a reduction in the work of the swinging-out toggle lever, the invention provides that the two shorter lever arms of the toggle levers are loaded by a release spring acting through a pull rod onto an angular intermediate lever supported in the lower area of the housing on a first pivot axle.

Abstract: A ski (1) which consists of a core (2), at least one upper surface layer and one lower surface layer. Recesses (6) are provided in the binding area, in which recesses containers (8) are fixed. Inserts to anchor fastening screws are inserted into the containers. Each insert consists of a layer of an elastomer material and of a layer of a fixed material, for example metal or glassfiber-reinforced plastic. In order to avoid in this ski (1) a drilling through the layer (10) of elastomer material and in order to also be able to stress this layer (10) with respect to tension and compression, the invention provides that this layer (10) is below the layer (9) of solid material and is fixedly connected both to the bottom wall (8a) of the container (8) and also to the layer (9) of solid material.

Abstract: A front jaw having a housing receiving a release spring therein, through which housing extends a pull rod acting onto two toggle levers. In order to improve the release operation in such a front jaw, the invention provides that the housing has two bearing surfaces designated for a bearing part, which bearing surfaces are vertically spaced from the pull rod, and that the axles of the two toggle levers are arranged in the bearing part which rests in the skiing position under the influence of the release spring on the two bearing surfaces.

Abstract: A ski binding for a cross country ski or touring ski (1). The ski binding includes a swivel part (40) and a holding cup (50) both pivotal about a transversely extending first axle (3) against the force of an elastic element in unison as well as with respect to one another. The swivel part (40) is constructed as a two-arm toggle lever and carries therewith a locking pin (42) on a first lever arm (41) thereof and a second axle (7) for a lock part (60) on a second lever arm (43) thereof. The holding cup (50) has in a front area thereof a crossbar (54) connecting its sidewalls (52), which crossbar is constructed as a locking nose (55) at its front end. The locking nose is defined by a first arcuate surface (56) extending around the transversely extending first axle (3) and a contiguous arcuate holding surface (57). A lock part (60) is provided and includes an arcuate surface region (61 ) around the second axle (7).

The swivel part (40) is a two-arm toggle lever and carries a locking pin on a first lever arm thereof and an axle for a lock part (60) on a second lever arm (43) thereof. The second lever arm (43) of the swivel part (40) extends downwardly and forwardly. The elastic element includes a spring (5) arranged in an elongated recess (33) in the base plate (31) of the bearing block (30) and directly stresses the second lever arm (43) of the swivel part (40).
