摘要 |
The present invention relates to a heel binding (10) for a skate (12) and comprises a heel lock mechanism with a vertically pivotable locking member (20), arranged, in an actuated position, to be in contact with an edge portion of the top of the heel (34) of a skater's boot, and in a non-actuated position to be pivoted backwards away from the heel. The locking mechanism (20) is bifurcated and has a lower linkage arm (26) actuated by the heel and an upper locking arm (24) fixing the heel. An operating arm (36) is vertically pivotable adjacent the locking member (20) and supports a cam roller (38), which is resiliently biassed against a cam profile (44) on the rear edge of the locking arm, by means of a spring (42). |
