Abstract
In a motor brake for an internal combustion engine having an exhaust valve and an operating mechanism for opening and closing the exhaust valve, the operating mechanism includes a support structure which is firmly connected to, or part of, the internal combustion engine and a pressure element and a valve opening element are movably supported by the support structure so as to transfer a valve opening force to the exhaust valve and a stop structure is provided on the support structure for engaging and supporting the pressure element when the exhaust valve is in the normally closed position or opened for engine braking operation.
