Abstract

For many years, various ways of fixing skiing shoes for skiing have been used. With the development of technology that is applied in this very popular sport, there is an increasing need for enhanced conditions related to personal safety of users. Over time different kind of mechanisms were used for this purpose differed. Currently, the most effective way to safely connect the ski boot/ski shoes to the ski is achieved by a camber-blocking mechanism.

In this paper, we conducted analysis of a ski binding using the SolidWorks2018 software package, checked its functioning under the given conditions (which are very close to the real conditions) and come up with results that could be used in practice.

Results were analyzed and the results were compared mutually in order to receive the most optimal solutions. Also, a methodology used in this paper is the same as one developed for the teaching process in the subject Design of Mechanisms at Bachelor Studies at the Belgrade Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.
