Abstract
The invention describes a support device (6) between the sole (9) of a boot (4) and a piece of sports apparatus, in particular a ski (5). Between the toe clamp and a heel clamp (1, 2) of a coupling device (3) a housing (22) is arranged which is mounted on the ski (5). In the housing (22) a running plate (32) is provided which is motionally mounted transversely to the longitudinal direction of the ski from a position of rest against the effect of a readjusting force brought about by a spring device (48). The housing (22) is mounted on the ski (5) in an end section facing towards the toe clamp and/or the heel clamp (1, 2) in a predeterminable position vertically to the surface (10) and in an opposite end section relative to the surface (10) and is mounted freely, adjustable vertically to the latter. Or the housing (22) is mounted on a freely moving spacer (13) connecting the toe clamp and the heel clamp (1, 2) in a vertical direction relative to the surface (10).
