  • Patent number: 11738253
    Abstract: A snowboard binding including a baseplate, a bearing highback rotatable relative to the baseplate, a pedal to operate the bearing highback at clip-in between an opening position and a closing position and a locking element to lock the rotation of the bearing highback relative to the baseplate in closing position against the elastic return of a lever. The locking element includes two ratchet notches with the lever. The snowboard binding includes a lug that is received into a fork of the locking element with notches or of the lever to rotate the locking element with notches or the lever by unlocking the lever from one of the notches and by locking it with the other notch at clip-in.

  • Patent number: 11338193
    Abstract: A snowboard binding with a base, a bearing shell movable about a first rotary pin supported by the base, and a pedal for controlling the bearing shell from an open position to a closed position, the bearing shell including a shell bottom and two shell sides supporting the pedal. The first rotary pin is supported by the bearing shell to form a boot stop in the shell bottom in any position of the bearing shell lying between an open position and the closed position. The shell bottom can support a bearing and the base, a pin housed in the bearing to form a hinge extending along the axis of rotation of the first rotary pin. The pedal can move relative to the shell sides about a second axis of rotation and be supported by two arms.
