Abstract: A parking brake structure having a simple configuration that is reduced in the number of parts and weight, is provided. The parking brake structure is for use in a vehicle that has a rear wheel brake including a rear wheel brake disc and a rear wheel brake caliper. The rear wheel brake disc has an outer circumferential end face that is provided with a plurality of recesses. The parking brake structure includes a locking member that is axially supported in a swingable manner to a bracket for supporting the rear wheel brake caliper. The locking member is formed with a protrusion engageable with the recess. The protrusion has a tapered shape that becomes thinner as it goes to a top, whereas the recess has a reverse tapered shape conforming to the shape of the protrusion. The bracket is attached with a vehicle speed sensor that measures vehicle speed based on a passing state of the recesses.

Abstract: A parking brake structure having a simple configuration that is reduced in the number of parts and weight, is provided. The parking brake structure is for use in a vehicle including a driving force transmission member and a rotation member. The driving force transmission member is configured to transmit a driving force of a power unit to a rear wheel. The rotation member is wound with the driving force transmission member while being fixed to the rear wheel. The parking brake structure includes a locking member configured to engage with the rotation member to prevent the rotation member from rotating. The rotation member has an outer circumferential end face that is formed with a plurality of protrusions and recesses between the protrusions adjacent to each other. The protrusions are used to engage with the driving force transmission member. The locking member is formed with a protrusion engageable with the recess.
