  • Such Binding is known from DE 42 19 036 A.
  • the invention also relates to the Kinematically inverted "arrangement, in which the base plate is circular and the flange plate is annular, such that an edge on the inner circumference of the flange plate projects beyond the outer circumferential edge of the base plate and holds it positively or non-positively or braces it on the snowboard or the like.
  • a binding is known from FR 2 726 480 A.
  • the circular flange plate can be in different, relative to each other in the longitudinal and transverse directions positions of the snowboard on the snowboard are attached, with the base plate between the top side of the snowboard and an edge of the circle opening the edge area of the base plate Flange plate is clamped.
  • the position of the base plate can additionally the base plate secured by positive locking with the flange plate be.
  • the advantage of this design is that when positioning the flange plates only the desired distance between the feet of the snowboarder on the snowboard as well as the positions of the metatarsal areas Need to become.
  • the respective rotary setting of the base plate i.e. the angular position of the longitudinal axis of the base plate or the shoe relative to the longitudinal axis of the snowboard, can be between the base plate before bracing Snowboard top and flange plate practically any - with one through the interlocking gears Flange and base plate specified fineness - set become.
  • This object is achieved in that about the flange plate is a clamping washer that the Flange plate on the snowboard or the like. regarding their vertical axis vertically movable and non-rotatable and the tensioning disc with respect its vertical axis is vertically movable and rotatable, and that the spring washer increases in rotation in one direction is clamped axially against the flange plate and at Rotation in the opposite direction increases the height mobility the flange plate enables.
  • the invention is based on the general idea that Flange plate opposite by separate organs on the one hand Rotation around the vertical axis and on the other hand opposite axial Define strokes while doing the latter fasteners to train so that a quick switch between axial mobility and axially fixed mounting of the Flange plate is possible.
  • the flange plate is assigned a lifting suspension, which the To push the flange plate against the clamping washer and thus tries to lift out of a positive connection with the base plate.

  • the helical compression spring 6 looks for the flange plate 7 as well to raise the clamping washer 8 such that the front toothed edge of the flange plate 7 from the corresponding Counter toothing of the base plate 2 tries to emerge.
  • the tensioning disk 8 is now rotated about its center by means of a tool or by engaging in recessed grips 11, the heads of the screw sleeves 5, depending on the direction of rotation, reach the area of the bearing surfaces 10 which is higher with respect to the top of the tensioning disk 8 or in the lower area thereof.
  • the tensioning disk 8 is increasingly pushed in the downward direction against the snowboard 1, with the result that the flange plate 7 is pressed down against the snowboard 1 and the base plate 2 is non-positively clamped between the snowboard 1 and the flange plate 7, with the end-face toothing of the flange plate simultaneously 7 engages in the counter-toothing of the base plate 2, so that the base plate 2 is also held in the respective rotational position by positive locking with the flange plate 7.
  • the heads of the screw sleeves 5 at the upper end of the bearing surfaces 10, that is to say when the tensioning disk has been pushed axially against the top of the snowboard, can be received in a latching manner by a depression 10 'of the bearing area, so that the position of the tensioning disk 8 bayonet-like "is secured.
  • Deviating from the illustrated embodiment can instead the helical compression spring 6 also another compression spring element, for example. a leaf spring.
  • the flange plate 7 can also be mounted on such and the spring washer 8 urging spring elements be dispensed with if the interlocking Sufficient toothing of base plate 2 and flange plate 7 have inclined tooth flanks, so that a rotation of the Base plate 2 becomes possible as soon as the flange plate 7 through appropriate rotation adjustment of the clamping disc 8 a sufficient Lifting mobility reached.
  • the top of the clamping disc 8 can be used as a label carrier or the like. serve and for example references to special Wear the properties of the snowboard binding. Possibly. can he This is what snowboarders are made aware of snowboard bindings, unlike ski bindings, in the Should not trigger in the event of a fall or collision.
  • the Flange plate 7 can also be attached directly to snowboard 1.
