Abstract

See full text

A slack adjuster for vehicle brakes is adapted to be mounted between the vehicle brake chamber and the vehicle brake operating shaft and includes a body which positions a drive member movable relative thereto on the brake operating shaft. A lever arm is pivoted to the body and there is an adjustable connection between the lever arm and the drive member for adjusting the relationship between the drive member and the body in response to body movement required for a brake application. The improvement herein is specifically directed to a device for connecting a brake rod to the lever arm and more specifically to a bushing threaded upon the brake rod and rotatably positioned within the lever.
