  • a suitable stop here, for example, the clamping element 40.
  • the power transmission essentially takes place only at pivot bearing sections, ie in particular at the pivot axes S 4 to S 9 .
  • the pivotal movement of the engagement lever 32L, 32R is inevitably converted into a substantially linear displacement movement of the clamping element 40, without the need for a special linear guide or the like would be necessary.
  • the clamping element 40 passes through the spring bearing 38; At this point, however, preferably no guidance or intervention is provided.
  • the rod portion 42 can enforce the spring bearing 38 in particular with great play and during the entire operation virtually without contact. The risk of jamming a linearly movable element in a guide and the occurrence of friction losses can thus be avoided.
  • the engagement members 22L, 22R are biased in the engaged position by the force of the spring means 37 to securely engage the shoe 16, either in the downhill binding system 12 or in the touring binding system 14.
  • This meant that when overcoming a predetermined release force, the shoe 16, for example during a fall on which engaging elements 22L, 22R are exerted, that is, on the contact rollers 18L, 18R of the downhill binding system 12 or the bearing sections 34L, 34R of the touring binding system 14, yielding the engagement elements 22L, 22R and urged against each other by the force of the spring means 37 can be.
  • the shoe 16 may then deploy from the front unit 10 to prevent injury to the athlete.
  • the release force and the tripping characteristics can be influenced by adjusting the bias of the spring means 37, in particular by adjusting the spring stop 46.
  • FIG. 7 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. Compared to the first embodiment, the same or corresponding components are designated by 100 increased reference numerals in the second embodiment. In the following, only the differences from the first embodiment will be discussed in more detail, while the rest is expressly made to the description of the first embodiment.
  • FIG. 7 Illustrated is in FIG. 7 a sectional view parallel to the sliding board plane for a front unit 110 of the second embodiment, which has a left engaging member 122 L and a right engaging member 122 R, which are pivotally mounted on a base portion 124 and in the manner described in detail with respect to the first embodiment, first engagement means of a departure binding system and second engagement means of a touring binding system for holding a ski boot 116 in a downhill or a tour position include. Indicated in FIG. 7 schematically contact rollers 118L and 118R of the first engagement means.
  • the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in the configuration of the tensioning device 134, by means of which the engagement elements 122L, 122R are biased into the engagement position.
  • the tensioning device 134 comprises a spring element 137 with a linear movement characteristic, in particular a spiral spring, which is supported on the one hand on an operationally sliding board-fixed spring bearing 138 and on the other hand on a sliding element 140 displaceably guided along the sliding board longitudinal axis L.
  • the clamping element 140 can pass through a central passage opening of the spring bearing 138 axially and also be guided by the spring element 137 therethrough.
  • a head portion 144 of the tension member 140 may include a left abutment portion 178L and a right abutment portion 178R to which abut a respective abutting portion 180L, 180R of the left and right engagement members 122L, 122R, respectively.
  • the abutment portions 178L, 178R slide on the associated opposing abutment portions 180L, 180R, whereby the pivotal movement of the engagement members 122L, 122R and the displacement movement of the biasing member 140 are directly interdigitated.
  • a cam transmission takes place, the abutting sections sliding against each other.
  • the force of the spring member 137 acts to urge the biasing member 140 forward and thus bias the counterclockwise left engaging member 122L and clockwise the right engaging member 122R. Accordingly, the force of the spring member 137 causes the contact rollers 118L, 118R to be urged towards each other and thus pressed against the front sole portion of the ski boot 116.
  • the engagement elements 122 L, 122 R thus give in accordance with a high load on the ski boot 116 in the lateral direction against the force of the spring element 137 to trigger the ski boot 116 in the event of a fall.
  • the front unit of the second embodiment may further include an operating mechanism 166 for adjusting the front unit 110 between the open position and the engaged position, which is formed on the same constructive principle as the operating mechanism 66 of the first embodiment.
  • the actuating mechanism 166 may include a manually operable actuator 168 in the form of a lever which is pivotally mounted about a pivot axis S 7 extending in the Y direction on the base body 124 or on a part fixedly connected to the base body 124.
  • the actuating element 168 is further connected to a pivot axis S 8 extending in the Y-direction, pivotably connected to at least one actuating member 170, which in turn is pivotally connected to the clamping element 140, here in particular to the head section 144, about a pivot axis S 9 running in the Y direction is.
  • the pivot axis S 8 again lies between the pivot axes S 7 and S 9 and can pass through a dead center position (dead position) in dependence on the position of the actuating element 168, in which the pivot axis S 8 straight on a connecting line between the pivot axes S 7 and S.
  • the force-transmitting bearings of the front unit on the axes of rotation S 1 , S 2 , S 4 to S 9 can be realized in principle by all types of pivot bearings known in the art.
  • cylindrical bearings are used, which allow rotation about only one axis of rotation.
  • Such bearings can be inexpensively and wear-resistant designed as a pin bearing, in which a provided with a corresponding coating or lubrication on its outer cylinder surface bearing pin is rotatably mounted in a matching bearing bore.
