Abstract
A brake device of a railway vehicle, having at least one operating brake cylinder having at least one operating brake piston actuated by a pressurizing medium, the piston actuating an operating brake piston rod coaxial to the brake cylinder axis, and having a parking brake device having a pivotally supported actuating lever, the rotary motion thereof being transmitted to a shaft rotationally supported by at least one shaft bearing on a housing, wherein the rotary motion of the shaft induced by the actuating lever can be converted to a linear motion parallel to the brake cylinder axis of at least one support roller rotationally supported by a support roller bearing on a rotary axis disposed parallel to the shaft, in that at least one cam having an operating cam face and rotationally fixed to the shaft is provided, the cam interacting with a radially outer support roller surface of the support roller during a tightening or releasing stroke of the parking brake device, wherein the linear motion of the support roller is transferred to the operating brake piston rod.
