Dexter electric brakes with parking brake option are mechanically operated by a cable. Cable force applied to the parking lever creates a torque through the pivot pin And cam assembly. Torque transferred to the parking cam results in a spreading force between the primary And secondary shoes. The shoes in turn move towards the drum until contact is made. Friction generated between the drum And lining contact surface keeps the drum from rotating under normal loading conditions.
