A brake mechanism for a wheel assembly comprises a first lever rotatable about a first pivot axis; a pressure element moveable between a first position in which the pressure element does not apply a force to a surface and a second position in which the pressure element applies a force to said surface; a linkage mechanism arranged to transmit a force from the first lever to the pressure element; and a second lever rotatable about a second pivot axis. The first lever is arranged to move from a deactivated position to an activated position to apply a force to the linkage mechanism to move the pressure element into the second position, and the second lever is arranged to move from an engaged position to a disengaged position to apply a force to the first lever to move the first lever to the deactivated position and thereby cause the pressure element to move to the first position.
