where to get brakeshoe pad?

I do not know where to check the safety trip like the pictures. Can you please make a large background of picture so I will know where to check it.

Thanks.
I put break handle down to the level. I think I need to remove the ties and take a deep look and clean inside. The problem is that I do not have experience to do this. I might be two a few miles to a shop.
