ABSTRACT:
A binding for retaining an end of a boot upon a ski. The binding includes a body, a device for securing the body to the ski, and a retention jaw for engagement with the end of the boot in an engagement position. The retention jaw includes a first arm and a second arm mounted on the body on respective sides of the longitudinal axis of the binding for lateral movement with respect to the body, and a first wing and a second wing mounted for lateral movement, respectively, on the first arm and on the second arm. The first wing and the second wing have a closed position in which the first wing and the second wing are substantially fixed for movement with the first arm and the second arm, respectively. The binding further includes a mechanism for elastically biasing the jaw in the engagement position and the wings in the closed position. Further, a member is provided for connecting the first wing and the second wing together for lateral movement and a linking mechanism for the first wing and the second wing. The linking mechanism is functionally connected to the elastically biasing mechanism for permitting the first wing and the second wing to remain in the closed position and for permitting the first and the second wing to move to an open position upon the application of a release threshold force against one of the wings.
