Abstract
The present invention provides a brake device for a children's vehicle which overcomes the drawbacks of a conventional brake device that causes different braking force when the wheel rotating in different directions. The brake device of the present invention is constituted by a brake disc rotating along with the wheel; and a pair of brake shoes pivotally secured by one end at a fixed portion relatively to the brake disc and capable of counterly fastening the circumference of the brake disc. When braking, the brake shoes rotate pivotally by the fixed portion to fasten the brake disc and stop the wheel. Since the pair of brake shoes always provide together a major and a minor braking force whenever the wheel rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, they always provide the same braking performance.

A brake device for a children's vehicle, comprising:
- a brake drum rotating along with a wheel;
- a pair of brake shoes, each pivotally secured at one end to a pivot located at a fixed portion relatively to said brake drum and capable of counterly fastening the circumference of said brake drum;
- a cam pivotally provided in said brake device, said cam having a pair of curvy slots for respectively and movably receiving a pin provided on another end of each of said brake shoes;
- wherein said curvy slots are structured so that when said cam is moved pivotally during braking, said brake shoes will rotate pivotally about said fixed portion to fasten said brake drum and stop said wheel.
