Selbstnachstellende, durch Niederdrücken zu lösende Parkbremse.

摘要

A parking brake control in which a spiral spring is loaded between a sector (30) and a pedal (21) and unwinds to take up slack in the cable (13) of a vehicle parking brake and tension the cable (13) when a locking pin (53) is removed following installation of the control and connection of the cable (13) to the sector (30). A pawl (45) coacts with the same sector (30) to hold the sector in its brake-applied position and to enable release of the brake by pushing on the pedal (21). A cam (90) is carried by the pedal (21) and acts against the cable (13) to produce a mechanical advantage which progressively increases as the brake is progressively applied.
