Abstract
A brake comprising a frame, a braking member mounted on the frame movably between braking position and released position, and a rotatable lever mounted on the frame, the lever being functionally connected to the braking member such that movement of the lever axially away from frame moves the braking member towards released position. At least one cylindrical roller is mounted on one of the brake frame and lever, to be positioned between the brake frame and the lever, and the other of the brake frame and lever comprises a recess for receiving said cylindrical roller, and in that rotation of the lever is configured to cause said cylindrical roller to roll outwards from the recess along an edge portion of the recess forcing the lever to move axially away from the frame, thereby causing the braking member to move towards released position.
