ABSTRACT:
A parking brake apparatus for an automatic transmission vehicle in one embodiment includes a parking shaft connected to a shift lever, a cam plate secured to the parking shaft, a parking rod assembly operated when the cam plate secured to the parking shaft rotates through manipulation of the shift lever, and a parking gear meshed with a sprag which is actuated by the parking rod assembly. The apparatus comprises a driving section having a driving motor assembly for driving the parking shaft such that the sprag can be engaged with or disengaged from the parking gear when the shift lever is manipulated between P and R, and operating to ensure that a rotational force of a driving motor is added to a disengaging force of the parking rod assembly for disengaging the sprag engaged with the parking gear when the disengaging force is insufficient.
