Abstract: A base frame 1 is such as to be fixedly provided on a body so that a parking brake device 2 is provided thereon which causes a brake applying portion of a parking brake to apply the brake and release the brake so applied, a base frame main body 1a is molded into an integral unit, a parking device mounting portion 10A where the parking brake device 2 is mounted is formed on one side A of the base frame man body 1a, and a gearshift device mounting portion 10B where a gearshift device of a transmission is provided is formed on the other side B thereof.

Abstract: A parking brake apparatus has a base, a ratchet plate fixed to the base, an operation lever includes a rotational base portion pivotally supported on the base; a pawl adapted to engage/disengage with the ratchet plate; an arc-shaped intermediate member comprises an arc-shaped relay rod; and a grip for controlling the engagement of the pawl. The arc-shaped relay rod is divided into at least two and is made to be interlocked with operations by the grip to transmit an engagement/disengagement operation with the ratchet plate to the pawl, the ratchet plate and the rotational base portion are provided inside a body side mounting portion, and the intermediate member is provided in such a manner as to appear from and disappear into a passage hole in the body side mounting portion.

Abstract: A foot-operated parkin brake apparatus for a vehicle has a base plate, a pedal lever, a sector gear, and a locking pawl. The base plate has a pivot and is fixed with respect to the body of the vehicle. The pedal lever is rotatably supported by the base plate. By stepping on the pedal lever, the parking brake is applied. The sector gear is provided on the pedal lever. The locking pawl has a covering of resin that covers its surface, a bearing hole that is rotatably supported by the pivot of the base plate, and a meshing surface that meshes with the sector gear. The mating surface and the peripheral surface of the bearing hole are exposed metal surfaces which are not covered with the resin. By a meshing between the sector gear and the locking pawl, the pedal lever is locked at the position to which it has been pressed.
