Abstract

A brake apparatus includes a first coupling member coupled to one end part of one of a pair of link arms, a second coupling member coupled to the one end part of the other of the pair of link arms to freely advance and retract with respect to the first coupling member, an actuator configured to advance and retract an output member, a lever rotatably coupled to the output member and configured to be rotated by advancing and retracting movements of the output member and a booster unit configured to advance and retract the second coupling member with respect to the first coupling member by boosting a force transmitted by the rotation of the lever.
