A regulator () automatically adjusts a drive cable () or Bowden cable () to drive a vehicle brake by means of a drive element such as a brake lever or a handbrake lever (), the regulator () comprising two pivotally supported resetting arms () prestressed by at least one spring element () and which can be connected each to the drive cable () resp. leading to the brakes, further comprising a blocking system () to block the pivoting motion about a common pivot axis () of the resetting arms () in case of actuation of the drive element coupled by a Bowden cable () to the resetting arms (). At least one guidance inset () is seated in irrotational manner in a clearance () of a resetting arm () as a pivot bearing for the other resetting arm (), the latter being supported at the guidance inset () so as to be pivotable about the pivot axis () and the blocking system () is supported at or in the guide inset () so as to be radially displaceable about the pivot axis ().

Regulator for automatically adjusting the length of an actuating link

A regulator (,) automatically adjusts a drive cable (,) or Bowden cable (,) to drive a vehicle brake by means of a drive element such as a brake lever or a handbrake lever (,), the regulator (,) comprising two pivotally supported resetting arms (,) prestressed by at least one spring element (,) and which can be connected each to the drive cable (,) resp. leading to the brakes, further comprising a blocking system (,) to block the pivoting motion about a common pivot axis (,) of the resetting arms (,) in case of actuation of the drive element coupled by a Bowden cable (,) to the resetting arms (,). At least one guidance inset (,) is seated in irrotational manner in a clearance (,) of a resetting arm (,) as a pivot bearing for the other resetting arm (,), the latter being supported at the guidance inset (,) so as to be pivotable about the pivot axis (,) and the blocking system (,) is supported at or in the guide inset (,) so as to be radially displaceable about the pivot axis (,).
