Parking brake for motor vehicle, has rack-and-pinion drive arranged between Bowden cable and actuating element, where drive transfers lever movement of actuating arm of actuating element into Bowden cable force

摘要

The brake (1) has a brake unit coupled with a vehicle wheel. A Bowden cable (6) transfers a lever movement of an actuating arm (5) of an actuating element (4) to the brake unit. The actuating element is provided with a force-transferring annular gear section (7). A rack-and-pinion drive (8) is arranged between the Bowden cable and the actuating element. The drive transfers a lever movement of the actuating arm into Bowden cable force. A rotary axis (9) of the actuating element is formed between the actuating arm and the annular gear section.
