Provided are mechanisms and processes for a brake system for an assistive mobility device. Systems include a frame configured to provide support for a user, a plurality of wheels coupled to the frame and configured to enable motion of the frame, a plurality of brakes coupled to the plurality of wheels and configured to provide resistance to a rotation of the plurality of wheels when engaged. Systems also include a first handle coupled to the frame and configured to be grasped by the user. The first handle includes a first rotatable grip and a first rotational torque generator coupled to the plurality of brakes. Systems also include a second handle coupled to the frame and configured to be grasped by the user. The second handle includes a second rotatable grip a second rotational torque generator coupled to the plurality of brakes.

A handbrake structure includes a fixing base, a linking member and a brake handle. The fixing base is located on a handle of a moving apparatus. The linking member is located on the fixing base, wherein a first portion of the linking member is connected to a first brake wire, and a second portion of the linking member has a first limit part. The brake handle is located on the linking member, wherein a first portion of the brake handle is connected to a second brake wire. When the brake handle is rotated in a first direction, the brake handle pushes the first limit part to rotate the linking member, and the linking member pulls the first brake wire. When the brake handle is rotated in a second direction different from the first direction, the brake handle pulls the second brake wire.

A riding lawn mower includes a chassis having longitudinal support beam, a drive wheel, an electric motor coupled to the drive wheel, a suspended subframe having a longitudinal subframe beam pivotally coupled to the longitudinal support beam about a pivot axis, and a suspension device coupled between the longitudinal subframe beam and the longitudinal support beam. The longitudinal subframe beam at least partially supports the electric motor. The drive wheel and the electric motor are configured to translate relative to the chassis via the pivotal coupling between the longitudinal support beam and the longitudinal subframe beam.

A drive unit for actuating a brake device by a driver's operation, when a vehicle is parked or stopped, is disposed independently in a trailing arm for each of right and left rear wheels. Thus, the drive unit for actuating the brake device via a wire when the vehicle is stopped or parked can be loaded, even if the space of the vehicle is tight. That is, the drive unit for actuating the brake device via the wire when the vehicle is stopped or parked can be loaded, regardless of the space of the vehicle.

A brake disc release device, a turning device, and an elevator rescue package and method. The brake disc release device comprises: an actuating mechanism; a gear connected to a first end of the actuating mechanism; a first slider capable of sliding along a first guide piece and comprising a rack portion for engagement with the gear and a first wedge portion; a second slider capable of sliding along a second guide piece and comprising a second wedge portion for engagement with the first wedge portion of the first slider; and a pulling cable having a first end connected to the second slider and a second end connected to the brake disc.

Provided is an electric parking brake device in which a drum brake includes braking gap automatic adjustment means and a parking brake lever, and the operation of an electric actuator that drives the parking brake lever is controlled by a control unit. When an application operation time of the electric actuator (38) by the time when a parking brake state is obtained has exceeded a predetermined application operation end determination time (T2), the control unit (C) determines that the braking gap automatic adjustment means (18) is abnormal. With this configuration, at the time of obtaining the parking brake state, the presence or absence of abnormality in the braking gap automatic adjustment means can be determined.

A park brake system for adjusting a tension in a brake cable that is coupled to a park brake. The park brake system can include a driver that is communicatively coupled to a microcontroller, and an actuator that is rotatably displaceable by operation of the driver. An equalizer assembly can be linearly displaced along the rotating actuator to adjust a tension in the brake cable. The microcontroller can monitor a current being drawn by the driver as the driver is operated, and generate instructions to cease operation of the driver upon the current reaching a predetermined current threshold that corresponds a maximum force that is to be applied by the park brake. The microcontroller can also, when the park brake is being released from a set position, count pulses outputted by an encoder in connection with determining whether the park brake has reached a running clearance position.

A drum brake module for motor vehicles, the drum brake module being driven by an electric motor and having at least one parking brake function, includes an electromechanical cable pull actuator which is fastened on the anchor plate with the aid of an adapter. The adapter is designed as a one-piece, thin walled frame having at least one fastening flange for receiving the cable pull actuator and is held in place on the anchor plate.

A cable mounting assembly that may include a ball fitting having a hole that receives a cable assembly. The ball fitting may be disposed in an abutment and may be received in a bracket that may be disposed on the abutment.

A mower spindle brake disengagement mechanism includes belt driven pulleys on spindles supported by a rotary mower deck, brakes adjacent the pulleys, each of the brakes on a pivot arm biased to a brake engaged position, and a plurality of Bowden cables, each Bowden cable connected between one of the pivot arms and a single lever that may be pivoted to retract the Bowden cables to move the brakes on the pivot arms to a brake disengaged position.
