Brake device

1. A brake device for a sliding board, comprising:

a base for connecting the brake device to the sliding board; and

a brake, comprising:

at least one brake paddle;

a latching element which can be moved back and forth between a first position in which the brake paddle can be released in order to slow the sliding board and a second position in which the brake paddle can be fixed in a non-braking position;

and a pedal which comprises a bearing area for a boot and a functional element which can be moved relative to the bearing area,

wherein moving the functional element releases the latching element to be moved from the first position to the second position,

wherein the sliding board comprises a combined touring and downhill binding,

wherein the functional element is mounted in the pedal such that the functional element and the pedal move together relative to the base from a walking position to a downhill position, and

wherein the functional element is moved relative to the pedal to release the latching element.

2. The brake device according to claim 1 , wherein the functional element can be moved from a first location, in which the functional element is not in contact with a boot which is inserted in the binding, to a second location in which the functional element is in contact with the boot which is inserted in the binding.

3. The brake device according to claim 2 , wherein the functional element lies over the bearing area in the second location.

4. The brake device according to claim 3 , wherein the functional element forms a first walking aid for a height adjustment of equal to or less than 3° in the second location.

5. The brake device according to claim 4 , wherein the height adjustment is equal to or greater than 0° in the second location.

6. The brake device according to claim 1 , wherein the functional element comprises a first connecting arm and a second connecting arm, which each have a first end and a second end, and a transverse strut which connects the first end of the first connecting arm and the first end of the second connecting arm to each other.

7. The brake device according to claim 6 , wherein the transverse strut is rotatably mounted in the connecting arms and/or the second ends of the connecting arms are connected to the pedal in a rotary joint.

8. The brake device according to claim 1 , wherein the latching element is biased in the direction of the second position, such that when the functional element is moved from the first location to the second location, the latching element is moved automatically into the second position.

9. The brake device according to claim 1 , wherein the latching element comprises a first arm which extends substantially parallel to an upper side of the bearing area and which comprises a free end which abuts the functional element when the functional element is in the first location.

10. The brake device according to claim 9 , wherein the free end is shaped such that the latching element can be moved from the second position to the first position when the functional element is moved from the second location to the first location.

11. The brake device according to claim 9 , wherein the latching element comprises at least one second arm which protrudes from the first arm at an angle of greater than 0° and less than 180°, wherein the at least one second arm has a free end which forms an engaging element of the latching element.

12. The brake device according to claim 1 , wherein the brake device comprises at least one ascending aid which can be pivoted from a resting position to an active position, wherein in the resting position, the ascending aid is secured on the pedal in a positive fit and/or in a force fit, such that the ascending aid cannot be unintentionally moved from the resting position to the active position.

13. The brake device according to claim 12 , wherein the ascending aid is connected to the pedal in a pivot joint.

14. The brake device according to claim 13 , wherein the pivot joint is a rotary joint.

15. The brake device according to claim 1 , wherein the brake device is a retrofit kit for a sliding board binding.

16. A ski binding for a sliding board, comprising:

a front jaw or a toe retainer;

a rear jaw or a heel retainer; and

a brake device according to claim 1 .

17. The ski binding for a sliding board according to claim 16 , wherein the brake device and the heel retainer overlap in regions, and a drill hole pattern of the brake device aligns with a drill hole pattern of the heel retainer.

18. A sliding board comprising a ski binding for a sliding board according to claim 16 .
