Abstract

The safety binding has a base part which is fixed with respect to the ski, a release part which is supported so as to be rotatable relative to the base part, and a guide jaw with clamping device for clamping the boot sole. In order to support the release part relative to the base part, this release part has at least three guide rolls which are supported so as to be freely rotatable and have circumferential grooves in which guide flanges engage, which guide flanges are downwardly and inwardly bent at the underside of the release part and engage in the guide grooves with their inwardly bent edges. Cut out portions are located between the guide flanges so that the release part can be freed from the guide rolls after a determined rotation relative to the base part. A release cam having a central locking recess and two symmetrically arranged control cams is securely connected with the release part. A control roll which is displaceable against the action of springs of a release mechanism engages in the locking recess in the operating position and rolls at one of the control cams during the releasing process.
