ABSTRACT:
An automatic tensioning device for hand brake levers, with an enclosed casing (9) and rectangularly hollow in its interior, which is situated on the lever or on its support base. The interior of the casing is hollow, with one of its ends being tapered at the sides (24), and receives a square-shaped slide (1) with toothed sides (2) inside this hollow. This slide combines with two other attached parts (13, 14) that are toothed on the corresponding sides and that have wedge-shaped ends (23). These attached parts (13, 14) are forced by a spring against the narrowing taper of the casing, and the front end (4) of the slide is secured to the brake cables.
