ABSTRACT:
A brake for vehicles comprises a brake drum rotating with a wheel, an inner pin fixed to a vehicle body within the brake drum, an inner shoe whose end is pivotally supported by the pin, an arm formed integrally with the inner shoe and extending outwardly beyond the brake drum, an outer pin extending from the end of the arm, an outer shoe pivotally supported by the outer pin and adapted to be in contact with the outer periphery of the brake drum, and actuating means for urging the inner and outer shoes toward and away from the brake drum, whereby a braking force acting upon on one shoe helps the braking action of the other shoe to provide a sufficient braking force by a slight brake operating force.
