Abstract
A handbrake structure includes a fixing base, a linking member and a brake handle. The fixing base is located on a handle of a moving apparatus. The linking member is located on the fixing base, wherein a first portion of the linking member is connected to a first brake wire, and a second portion of the linking member has a first limit part. The brake handle is located on the linking member, wherein a first portion of the brake handle is connected to a second brake wire. When the brake handle is rotated in a first direction, the brake handle pushes the first limit part to rotate the linking member, and the linking member pulls the first brake wire. When the brake handle is rotated in a second direction different from the first direction, the brake handle pulls the second brake wire.
Claims19
A handbrake structure, comprising:
- a fixing base, located on a handle of a moving apparatus;
- a linking member, located on the fixing base, wherein a first portion of the linking member is connected to a first brake wire, and a second portion of the linking member has a first limit part;
- and
- a brake handle, located on the linking member, wherein a first portion of the brake handle is connected to a second brake wire;
- wherein when the brake handle is rotated in a first direction, the brake handle contacts the first limit part to push the linking member to rotate, and the linking member pulls the first brake wire;
- when the brake handle is rotated in a second direction, the brake handle pulls the second brake wire, wherein the first direction is different from the second direction.
A moving apparatus, comprising:
- a handle;
- and
- a handbrake structure, comprising:
- a fixing base, located on the handle;
- a linking member, located on the fixing base, wherein a first portion of the linking member is connected to a first brake wire, and a second portion of the linking member has a first limit part;
- and
- a brake handle, located on the linking member, wherein a first portion of the brake handle is connected to a second brake wire;
- wherein when the brake handle is rotated in a first direction, the brake handle contacts the first limit part to push the linking member to rotate, and the linking member pulls the first brake wire;
- when the brake handle is rotated in a second direction, the brake handle pulls the second brake wire, wherein the first direction is different from the second direction.
The moving apparatus according to claim 14, wherein the linking member comprises an upper part and a lower part, the lower part has the pivot, and the upper part has the first limit part at a second portion thereof and a second pivot hole corresponding to the pivot, wherein the pivot is sleeved with the first and second pivot holes.
A method for parking and braking a moving apparatus by using two brake wires, comprising:
- providing a handbrake structure located on a handle of the moving apparatus, wherein the handbrake structure comprises a fixing base, a brake handle and a linking member, wherein the linking member is located on the fixing base, the brake handle is located on the linking member, a first portion of the linking member is connected to a first brake wire, a first portion of the brake handle is connected to a second brake wire, and a second portion of the linking member has a first limit part;
- rotating the brake handle in a first direction and the brake handle to contact the first limit part of the linking member to push the linking member to rotate in the first direction, and thus the first brake wire is pulled;
- and
- rotating the brake handle in a second direction and pull the second brake wire, wherein the first and second directions are different from each other.
The method for parking and braking a moving apparatus according to claim 18, wherein the first brake wire is used to brake the moving apparatus, and the second brake wire is used to part the moving apparatus.
