Abstract
The heel piece of a safety binding for holding a boot on a ski, comprises a tubular binding body which is open at its two ends, is rigidly linked to a sole grip (1a) and is articulated about a transverse cam forming part of a stirrup piece (3) which is articulated onto a pivoting plate (4) joined to the ski, this body containing at least one spring which works in compression between a piston bearing on the cam, and a stop secured to a setting screw. The setting screw bears axially, by its head, against a bearing zone of the binding body, and the stop consists of a nut mounted on the setting screw, the screw, with its stop, the spring and the piston being mounted in the body through the end corresponding to the sole grip.
