ABSTRACT:
An automatic shoe clearance adjusting device in a shoe drum brake includes a strut of adjustable length having an adjust nut with ratchet teeth on the outer periphery thereof, an adjust lever having a pawl at one end thereof for cooperating the ratchet teeth, and a coil spring acting on the adjust lever for moving the pawl of the lever circumferentially and radially relative to the adjust nut by torsional and compressive forces respectively. A point through which the torsional force is transmitted to the lever, a point through which the torsional force is received by another member normally, and a fulcrum point around which the layer pivots in the radial direction are arranged such that these three points are adjacent to each other.
