  • Publication number: 20030090087
    Abstract: A display device for displaying the position of a force-adjusting component for a ski binding, particularly for a toe unit or a heel unit of a ski binding, comprising display elemets that are operatively associated to the force-adjusting component by way of an interconnection element, which is associated to a main body of the toe unit or the heel unit. The interconnection element is activated by an axial shift of the force-adjusting component along the main body of the toe unit or a heel unit of the ski binding.

  • Patent number: 6536783
    Abstract: A braking device, particularly usable for skates comprising a shoe composed of a quarter which is articulated to a shell associated with a supporting frame for two or more wheels, and comprising at least one traction element which is connected at one end to a tab which protrudes from a braking element which is located in a region which is adjacent to the last wheel and oscillates in contrast with at least one flexible element. In the braking device, the traction element is associated, at its other end, with two levers which operatively interact with the quarter and allow to take up the traction element when the quarter oscillates backward so as to place the braking element in contact with a braking surface.
