Zusammenfassung:A device is for the automatic adjustment of the tension of a control cable of a vehicle parking brake. The device includes a swivelling lever mounted rotatably on the axis of an actuating lever of the vehicle parking brake, a locking disc which is provided with a circumferential toothing, is mounted rotatably on the swivelling lever and is fastened to the control cable, a spring element which is connected at one end to the locking disc and is fixed at the other end on the vehicle and is prestressed in the tensioning direction of the control cable, and a carry-along element which is held on the actuating lever and is arranged with a toothing which, after a swivelling backlash of the actuating lever, meshes with the circumferential toothing of the locking disc. In order, in a simple manner, to avoid as far as possible undesirable noises of the device when actuating the parking brake, the carry-along element may be held in an elastically moveable manner on the actuating lever.
