ABSTRACT:
An improved drum brake adjuster includes an adjustable strut with threadably engaged parts disposed between a pair of brake shoes to maintain a controlled spacing between the brake shoes. The adjuster includes an extendible member engaging one of the brake shoes and extending to lengthen the strut in response to the force of an adjusting spring. A pivot member engages the extendible member and the other brake shoe. The adjuster also includes a resilient member and a clutch device disposed between the extendible member and the pivot member. The resilient member and the clutch device cooperate to prevent change in the length of the strut unless brake lining wear occurs.
