Abstract: A vehicle parking brake system pneumatically actuates an air cylinder (46) to mechanically
lock a wheel brake (12) in an applied position in response to a parking demand request. The air
cylinder (46) includes an extendable shaft (42) that supports a lock member (62). When a parking demand
request is initiated by moving a hand control (56), an air chamber is pressurized with air from a
parking reservoir via a valve assembly to apply the wheel brake. Air pressure is released
from the air cylinder and the lock member is moved into engagement with a brake component
to lock the wheel brake in the applied condition. The wheel brake remains locked even if
pressure is released from the air chamber (26). When a release command is initiated, the air
cylinder is pressurized and the lock member is moved out of engagement with the brake
component.

Abstract: A technique capable of improving the communication throughput while maintaining the interchangeability with a radio communication system or radio communication method employing carrier sense in a conventional multiple access system is disclosed and, on the basis of this technique, a radio communication terminal accommodating apparatus determines the allocation order of communication right permitting the occupation of a radio transmission medium with respect to each of a plurality of radio transmission terminals and transmits a multiple-polling signal 311 including information on this order to the plurality of radio communication terminals at an arbitrary transmission timing acquired through the carrier sense. Thus, each of communication right time periods (communication right time periods 312 to 314) for which the occupation of the radio transmission medium is permissible is allocated to each of the plurality of radio communication terminals. In addition, a time sufficiently shorter than a guard time (carrier sense time) in a conventional system is employed as a time interval between communication right time periods adjacent to each other.
