Abstract
Toe-piece for a boot on a gliding board including a chassis affixed to the gliding board; a body movable on the chassis; a sole-clamp movable on the body; a lateral release mechanism including a first elastic mechanism to return the sole clamp to engagement with the boot; a vertical retention mechanism having a second elastic mechanism arranged to continuously exert a return force on the body to bring the sole-clamp toward the lower surface of the chassis, the return force pressing the sole-clamp on the boot; at least one cam kinematically inserted between the second elastic mechanism and either the chassis or the body, the cam being shaped to modify, in relation to the chassis, the direction of the return force exerted by the second elastic mechanism on the body to attenuate a variation in the pressing force when the sole-clamp is away from the lower surface of the chassis.
