ABSTRACT:
An automatically detachable ski binding includes spaced apart and interconnected toe and heel portions mounted on a ski for holding a ski boot in place thereon. The ski binding includes a mechanical shoe clamping and release system and an electronic controller, the heel portion of the binding including a pivotable clamp with which a spring and a probe engage. The binding is designed in such a manner that the point of application of the probe on the clamp lies between the point of application of the spring on the clamp and the transverse axis about which the clamp pivots, and that the distance between the point of application of the probe and that of the spring and/or the prestress of the spring are selected in such a manner that in the point of application of the probe would specify the relationship, are the same between the desired release values of the vertical and the horizontal torque such that the two different torque values effect the same linear shifting movement of the probe.
