A brake cable connector device used for a brake device, and serving for guiding a brake cable into engagement with a brake lever when an end portion of the brake cable is introduced through an opening formed through a backing plate into the interior of the brake device under assembling. The brake cable connector device includes a guide member which is formed separately from the brake lever and which is fixedly attachable to the brake lever. The guide member is configured such that an end of the brake cable is brought into contact with the guide member and guided into engagement with an engaging portion of the brake lever when the end portion of the brake cable is introduced into the interior of the brake device at a predetermined position of the brake device. The brake cable connector device includes a guide pipe which extends through the backing plate so that the brake cable is introduced through the guide pipe into the interior of the brake device. The guide pipe has a radial protrusion which is brought into engagement with an edge portion of the backing plate defining the opening, for limiting a distance over which the guide pipe is introduced into the interior of the brake device.
A brake cable connector device for a brake device including a brake lever having an engaging portion, and a brake cable which has a cable end fixed at one end thereof and which is connected at said cable end to said engaging portion of said brake lever, and wherein a braking force is generated upon a pivotal movement of said brake lever which takes place when said brake cable is pulled, said brake cable connector device operating to guide said cable end into engagement with said engaging portion of said brake lever when an end portion of said brake cable which has said cable end is introduced into an interior of said brake device upon assembling of said brake device, said brake cable connector device comprising:
A brake cable connector device for a brake device including a backing plate fixed to a body of a vehicle, a brake lever disposed on one of opposite sides of said backing plate, and a brake cable connected at an end portion thereof to said brake lever, and wherein a braking force is generated upon a pivotal movement of said brake lever which take places when said brake cable is pulled, said brake cable connector device comprising a guide pipe which extends through an opening formed through said backing plate, such that said brake cable is introduced from the other of the opposite sides of said backing plate to said one of the opposite sides of said backing plate through said guide pipe whereby said end portion of the brake cable is guided toward said brake lever upon assembling of said brake device, wherein an improvement comprises:
