An actuator for an electric parking brake system includes a motor, an output member, and a speed reduction device. The speed reduction device includes a transmission mechanism and a self-locking mechanism. The self-locking mechanism includes a fixed member, first and second rotating bodies, and a spring. The second rotating body transmits torque to the output member via a planetary gear mechanism. The spring prevents the brake from driving the motor.

A vehicle drum brake includes a drum (3) having an inner friction surface (21) formed circumferentially, a brake carrier (5) that can move in rotation relative to the drum (3) about a drum axis (X), and a brake lining assembly (7) arranged on the brake carrier (5). The brake lining assembly (7) has a plurality of radially movable lining carriers (11), on each of which a brake lining segment (9) is provided, facing the friction surface (21). The drum brake (1) has an actuating ring (13) displaceable along the drum axis (X) and rotatable about the drum axis (X), and a displacement surface arrangement (30), which is operatively connected to the lining carriers (11). The displacement surface arrangement (30) is shaped such that both the axial displacement and the rotary movement of the actuating ring (13) bring about a respective synchronous radial movement of all the lining carriers (11).
