  • Toe clip for a ski binding
    Patent number: 4083578
    Abstract: A toe clip, adapted to hold the toe portion of a ski boot to a sole plate, is formed of a length of wire bent to have a base portion, two leg portions extending outwardly therefrom, and a loop portion adapted to be received in the toe notch of a ski boot. The ends of the wire are welded together. The toe clip may be operatively positioned in any of a plurality of transversely-extending key-shaped recesses provided in the sole-plate. The toe clip base portion is bowed in each of two perpendicular intersecting planes. One bow impedes insertion and removal of the base portion from a recess. The other bow provides a degree of friction between the base portion and the recess walls.
