Abstract
Jaw-type binding consisting of two arms (5, 6) which are mounted in order to pivot independently and forming a lever acting on the end of a rod (12), the other end of which is connected to a stop (14) which is secured to the rod and is retained by a spring (16) whose preload can be adjusted by moving the stop, on which there is an index (15) cooperating with a graduation (22) on a plate (20). The front end of this plate bears elastically (24, 25) against the body (3) of the binding, so as to follow movement of the rod when the boot is engaged, in such a way that the display of the preload of the spring is not modified by the engagement of the boot.
