ABSTRACT:
A brake cable connecting apparatus that prevents a connecting pin from falling out, and whereby it is unnecessary to adjust the insertion depth of the connecting pin. The brake cable connecting apparatus comprises a regulating projection in the strut to prevent over-insertion of a connecting pin. A cable connecting groove is formed in the plate-like brake lever and is supported on the strut by the two facing surface walls. Two resilient members are deformed to allow the connecting pin to move into a cable connecting groove if an inner cable is pulled to insert the connecting pin laterally bridged between two facing plates of the clevis of the brake cable. Further, a cable disengagement restriction portion prevents passage of the connecting pin if the connecting pin may potentially fall out from the cable connecting groove.
