SICHERHEITSSKIBINDUNG MIT VERSCHWENKBARER SOHLENPLATTE

PCT No. PCT/DE91/00217 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 27, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 27, 1991 PCT Filed Mar. 12, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO91/14484 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 3, 1991.A safety ski binding having a sole plate which is pivotable parallel to the surface of the ski, a pair of sole holders (30) which are each pivotable about a respective axis which is perpendicular to the sole plate between a holding position and a release position for a ski boot, and a release assembly for the sole holders, which has a respective guide link (32) pivotally mounted to the sole holders, and a release member (37) which is mounted movably on the sole plate. In the holding position of the sole holders the guide links bear against a support element (35) which is fixed with respect to the plate, at an angle such that they are urged in a direction towards the release member (37), on the basis of the principle of the inclined plane. In that arrangement the portion of the support force which is carried by the support element (35) is considerably greater than the portion which is to be carried by the release member (37) so that upon a lateral pivotal movement of the sole plate and when the release member (37) comes to bear against an abutment wall (28') which is fixed with respect to the ski, only the low friction force between the release member and the guide links has to be overcome. That avoids the occurrance of a torque peak in the force/torque characteristic of the ski binding during the release procedure.
