ABSTRACT:
A ski binding wherein the housing of a safety device is secured directly to the upper side of the ski or to a cross country frame whose front end portion is pivoted to the ski. The housing has and/or contains friction reducing balls, rollers, liners and/or edge portions which guide a carriage for the front or rear hold-down device. The carriage is movable relative to the housing in a horizontal plane at right angles to the skiing direction and is normally held in a neutral position, in which the front part of the sole or the heel of a ski boot rests on its top surface, by the lobe of an eccentric which is rotatable in the housing and is normally held against rotation from the angular position corresponding to neutral position of the carriage by a set of prestressed helical springs reacting against the housing and bearing against a retainer having a flat abutting a flat of the eccentric. When the carriage is subjected to the action of a force whose magnitude exceeds a preselected value, the lobe of the eccentric is expelled from a socket of the carriage and the latter moves transversely of the skiing direction to a position of complete disengagement from the housing.
