Toepiece Which Releases Automatically as a Result of Twisting

摘要

A toepiece (10) for a binding device for securing a boot to a gliding board comprises a fixed part (11) which is intended to be secured to the gliding board, and a mobile part (12) which is mounted on the fixed part with a possibility of relative movement (T) with at least one transverse component and on which two jaws (13d, 13g) are mounted so as to pivot about a substantially longitudinal axis (Ag, Ad). The toepiece (10) comprises a lever (16) that is actuable from the outside of the toepiece (10) and takes up a blocking position in which blocking elements (25d, 25g) that are integral with the lever (16) prevent the jaws (13d, 13g) from tilting so as to keep the toepiece (10) in a closed configuration in which the jaws (13d, 13g) retain the boot.

1. A toepiece for a binding device for securing a boot to a gliding board, wherein the toepiece comprises:
a fixed part secured to the gliding board, a mobile part mounted by a mounting system on the fixed part adapted for relative movement with at least one transverse component and on which two jaws are mounted so as to pivot about a substantially longitudinal axis, a lever that is actuable from the outside of the toepiece and takes up a blocking position in which blocking elements that are integral with the lever prevent the jaws from tilting so as to keep the toepiece in a closed configuration in which the jaws retain the boot, and releasing elements that cooperate with the blocking elements such that the execution of said relative movement of the mobile part beyond a predetermined travel with respect to the fixed part causes the lever to pass automatically from the blocking position towards a freeing position which is different from the blocking position and in which the blocking elements allow the jaws to tilt.
