The invention discloses a hand brake for railway heavy-duty trucks, which comprises a base, a driving shaft, a chain wheel, a hand wheel, a handle, and a box shell. The driving shaft includes a driving shaft, a ratchet, The pinion, the pinion shaft and the key wheel, the hand wheel are connected to the driving shaft, the driving shaft is connected to the ratchet, the key wheel and the pinion in turn, and the handle is composed of a handle, a horizontal shifting frame directly connected to the handle and an action with the horizontal shifting frame With the matching vertical dial frame, when the handle is rotated counterclockwise, the key wheel is dialed to disengage from the pinion. The advantage of the present invention is that the drive shaft of the handbrake is driven by the composition of the rotary handle and the handwheel to complete three functions, including the braking function, the quick relief function and the gradual relief function, which effectively improves the handbraking ability, and at the same time Improved the quick release performance characteristic of the handbrake brake.
