Types of Parking Brakes:: Self-Locking: at Certain Critical Value of FC, The Term (B-FC) Becomes Zero, I.e., No Actuation

There are four main types of parking brakes: stick lever, centre lever, pedal, and electric or push button. Parking brakes can be either self-energizing, requiring force to engage but not to maintain, or self-locking, engaging at a critical point without any continued force needed. Self-locking brakes automatically engage at a specific point without further input.
