ABSTRACT:
A brake for roller skates comprising a simple, lightweight mechanism which multiplies the force exerted by the skater into a substantial braking force. The force is exerted by the skater by pushing downward with the heel, which rotates the boot with respect to the frame of the skate. That force is transmitted with leverage to braking shoes or pads that impinge on brake drums adjacent to the wheels. Adjustment for brake wear is provided by a screw that compensates for the shortening of the brake shoe as normal wear occurs. A detent mechanism locks the boot and frame together during normal skating.
