摘要

A one-piece sheet metal combination retainer and anchor for use in a non-servo floating shoe drum brake assembly having a pair of laterally extending ears (62, 64) for axially retaining respective ends (66,66) of a pair of brake shoes, and a pair of rivet head reinforceable axially extending portions (58, 60) for anchoring the brake shoe ends during brake application. A base portion (50) has one or more rivet (54, 56) or shaft receiving apertures with the each of the axially extending portions abutted by a rivet head flat surface. The base portion has a transversely extending central region to provide, in conjunction with a brake assembly backing plate (52), a parking brake cable retaining clamp.
