SAFETY SKI BINDING

摘要

A ski binding comprising two lateral clamps (4, 4') mounted displaceably under the action of a resilient member parallel to the plane of the ski (3) between a closed position in which the clamps coact with the sole of the boot and an open position. These clamps have when viewed from above a forwardly converging shape flaring rearwardly; the portion of each clamp adapted to coact in closed position with a medial portion of the sole of the boot forms a ramp that makes with the plane of the ski an acute angle increasing from the front ( alpha ) to the rear ( beta ). These clamps are carried by arms pivotally mounted on the ski behind the clamps. The ski boot (8) adapted to be maintained in operative position on a ski by the above binding comprises a sole (9) whose medial portion (10) has lateral edges forming ramps (11) corresponding to those of the clamps of the binding.
