Structure for arranging parking-brake lever

Abstract

A parking brake mounted selectively to a first position on a floor of an automobile body and a second position in front of the first position on the floor. Fitting hole is formed on the floor at the back of the first position. A pipe member is fitted into the fitting hole and has opening area formed like a substantial flare shape to be expanded forward at their front end. The opening area is opened over the floor of the automobile body. A cable is connected to the parking brake and then extended backward into the inside of the floor via the opening area. Accordingly, even when the parking brake is mounted to either of the first position and the second position, the cable is extended from the upper surface side of the floor to the back surface side thereof through the opening area of the pipe member. Since the opening area of the pipe member has a substantial flare shape, the cable is introduced smoothly into the inside of the floor even though the cables are strung obliquely to the pipe member. As the parking brake is mounted to either of the first position and the second position, the number of parts and the tare is reduced because a large size through bracket is not needed.
