ABSTRACT:
A sole or heel holder of a ski binding has a housing and sole down-holding member pivotally supported on a base and latched in a closed position for skiing by a U-shaped locking pawl which is pivotally supported on the housing, has a roller at the end of each leg, and has a row of notches along the bight. The bight is substantially vertical, one roller is disposed against the down-holding member, and the other roller is disposed against a detent on the base. A support part is pivotally supported on the base and positionally adjustable relative to the housing by means of a setscrew, and a spring-loaded locking element is slidably supported thereon and selectively engages the different notches in the pawl in response to rotation of the setscrew. A release lever is pivotally mounted to the base and cooperates with the pawl through a linking member for effecting a voluntary release of the latched housing and down-holding member.
