FREIO DE BLOQUEIO ACIONÁVEL DE MODO ELETROMECÂNICO

摘要

The present device relates to an electromechanically operated parking brake for motor vehicles that is designed as a drum brake of the 'Duo-Servo' type, including a floatingly supported expanding lock which is operable by an electromechanical actuator arranged on a wheel support member and which acts on two brake shoes. To ensure the floating support of the expanding lock that is formed of a threaded-nut/spindle assembly and to always provide a desired application force, the invention discloses that the threaded nut on its outside circumference has a spur toothing which forms a spiral-toothed gear wheel system along with a spiral-toothed gear wheel driven by the electromechanical actuator.
