ABSTRACT:
A safety binding for a ski comprising a housing pivotally mounted about a transverse axis, a sole clamp carried by the housing, an upward release mechanism incorporating an adjustable upward release spring and operative to locate the housing and the sole clamp in a closed position while adapted to release housing and sole clamp for upward pivotal movement about said transverse axis once the release setting of said upward release spring is exceeded. The binding also has a sideways release mechanism incorporating an adjustable sideways release spring one end of which bears against the housing. The sideways release mechanism is operative to locate the sole clamp sideways while adapted to allow the sole clamp to be displaced sideways to either side of the housing once the release setting of the sideways release spring is exceeded. The upward and sideways release springs are coil springs of different diameters and are located one within the other. Various embodiments are shown in which the coil springs are either tension or compression springs and are independently or jointly adjustable as desired.
