Parking brake equalizer

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To improve the traction operationability, in a system arranged in the center of brake cable having the opposite ends connected to the right and left brake unit sides to distribute the brake operating force uniformly, by preventing enlargement of brake cable upon release of parking brake. CONSTITUTION:The equalizer 1 is comprising a pair of approximately Y-type substrates 2, 3 arranged vertically with interval, front cable stop wall 4 striding in front of said substrates 2, 3 and brake cable suspension wall 5 striding at the rear end section of substrates 2, 3 while having arched plane. The equalizer 1 is dragged through front cable by dragging operation of parking lever to distribute the dragging force uniformly to the brake cable 10 having the opposite end sections connected to the right and left brake units. Here, pins 11 for preventing enlargement of brake cable are arranged at the opposite end sections of the substrates 2, 3 with predetermined interval from the inner face of the suspension wall 5 to insert the brake cable 10 between the pins 11 and the suspension wall 5.
