Skibindungs-Vorderbacken

A boot toe supporting body is set in a boot toe engaging position by a compression spring and cam means, said compression spring being provided between a ball on a base plate and said supporting body and, thereby, urging said supporting body upwards. Said cam means comprises a cam plate and a vertical pin, said cam plate being fixed or integral with said supporting body and having a protrusion, said vertical pin passing through holes of said cam plate and supporting body and being fixed at its lower end to said base plate. The vertical pin has a projection which is cooperative with said protrusion of said cam plate and locates above said protrusion to restrict the upward movement of said supporting body while the toe fixture is in a toe engaging position. When the supporting body rotates about said vertical pin due to severe twisting force applied to the toe, said supporting body goes up or floats from said base plate as said projection on said vertical pin is displaced from said protrusion.
