The handbrake (parking brake) is a crucial safety system in automobiles, which helps to lock the vehicle's motion and facilitate parking. Traditionally the operation of hand brake is done manually by a lever, and during the releasing of hand brake it can be mistakenly remains in applied condition (engaged position) by the driver. This accidental engagement can cause significant damage due to heat generation on the brake drum and shoes, potentially leading to further accidents when the brake is applied, potential locking up of wheels while driving. To address this concern, we propose the design and fabrication of handbrake release system by accelerator. This system will eliminate the risk of human error associated with manual operation and ensure the safe and reliable engagement and disengagement of the parking brake.
