Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a brake apparatus comprising: a single monolithic brake shoe having a circular shape, wherein the shoe has a spacing defined therein at a predetermined location thereof; an actuator disposed in the spacing, wherein the actuator includes a hollow cylinder an a piston slidably contained in the cylinder, wherein when the actuator is activated, the spacing increases; and a brake lining lined on an outer face of the brake shoe, wherein when the spacing increases, the lining selectively contacts a brake drum, wherein the piston is step-shaped such that a braking force of the brake apparatus having the single monolithic brake shoe is substantially equal to a braking force of a brake apparatus having two individual brake shoes.

Claim (Index 12):
The apparatus of claim ii, wherein the parking lever includes a first actuation link and a second actuation link,\n wherein the first actuation link has a predetermined length along a horizontal direction and has one end inserted into the accommodation groove, wherein the second actuation link has a predetermined length along a vertical direction, wherein the second link extends perpendicular to the first actuation link, wherein one end of the second link is operably engaged with the other end of the first link, wherein said one end of the second link is received in the reaction-force generation groove, wherein in an operation of the apparatus as a parking brake, the second link pivots around the other end thereof, thereby pressing the first actuation link, thereby increasing the spacing between the first piston and the second piston.
