Vehicle parking brake self-adjusting control mechanism

摘要

A vehicle parking brake control mechanism having a clutch drive through which the brake setting actuator lever drives the brake cable to set the brake, is provided with a self-adjusting arrangement for automatically taking up slack in the brake cable. Release means actuated by the actuator lever on return to its brake released position acts to disengage the clutch drive to free the driven element thereof for cable slack take-up movement by an adjusting spring.
