Abstract

The parking brake system that restricts or releases a parking gear by using an operational force by hydraulic pressure that is generated or removed according to whether the engine works and an operational force by an electromagnetic force, includes a position valve that outputs operational pressure supplied from a hydraulic pressure supplier, to a pressure control valve corresponding to a shift range including a parking range, a parking releasing valve that outputs operational pressure supplied from position valve at the other shift ranges than a parking range, a main actuator that releases a parking gear when an operational force is transmitted from parking releasing valve and restricts the parking gear when the operational force is removed, and/or a sub-actuator that releases the parking gear by providing an operational force to main actuator only when an engine works.
