Publication number: 20020162711Abstract: The invention relates to a drum brake device (10), which is provided as a wheel brake for a motor vehicle. The invention proposes embodying the drum brake device (10) with a brake belt (14), which is disposed inside a brake drum (12) and can flex in the radial direction of the brake drum (12). Thrust exerted on one end (18) of the brake belt (14) with a simultaneous bracing of the other end (20) of the brake belt (14) causes the brake belt (14) to be pressed against the brake drum (12) from the inside and produces a braking moment. The invention has the advantage that a friction force exerted on the brake belt (14) by the brake drum (12) augments the thrust on the end (18) of the brake belt (14) and thus boosts the braking moment. Another advantage is that the brake belt (14) always rests uniformly against the brake drum (12) over its entire circumference, even, for example, when the brake drum (12) expands due to heating.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2002Publication date: November 7, 2002Inventors: Dietmar Baumann, Hanniel Schmidt, Herbert Vollert, Frieder Keller

Patent number: 6412609Abstract: A brake cable mounting structure for a drum brake, in which even if the distance from the brake mounting surface to the center of the brake shoes in the width direction is short, the layout of the brake cable mounting section and the mechanical expander is efficient and effectively provided. Further, the anchor only need to support the braking force, thereby making the device smaller and lighter. The brake cable mounting structure of this invention is characterized in that the inner cable of the brake cable extends out from the brake; and the guide pipe on which the outer casing of the brake cable is integrally fixed with the back plate.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2000Date of Patent: July 2, 2002Assignee: Nisshinbo Industries, Inc.Inventor: Seiji Asai

Patent number: 6390248Abstract: It is an object of this invention to provide a drum brake device which solves a problem of decreasing the strength of a back plate near an anchor block and reduces potential damage to the parking brake cable. A pivot lever 60 is pivotally mounted on one brake shoe 20. Upper and lower portions of the pivot lever functionally engage with the other brake shoe 30 via struts 81, 70. A parking brake actuator 90 which pivotally supports on the upper strut 81 and activates upon an activation of a parking brake is arranged to be adjacent to a service brake actuator which activates upon an activation of a service brake. Preferably an operational part of the parking brake actuator is projected out from the brake back plate.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2000Date of Patent: May 21, 2002Assignee: Nisshinbo Industries, Inc.Inventor: Takashi Ikeda
