Abstract
This invention relates to a safety binding comprising a soleplate. The usual bindings may release the boot in response to a deflection of the ski caused by large waves. It is an object of the present invention to provide a binding which has a soleplate and which can store a larger energy and will not undesirably release the boot in response to a resilient deflection of the ski. Besides, the binding according to the invention provides for favorable kinematics as regards the movements which result in the release of a boot by a safety binding. For this purpose the invention provides a spring-biased heel holder and a soleplate, which is mounted to be displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the soleplate and is connected to the heel holder by a universal joint and which near that end which is remote from the heel holder is pivoted on an axis which is transverse to the soleplate.
