<p>An abutment-plate portion of a main body portion of a biasing member, which faces a disc rotor in an axial direction, includes a pad-return portion for biasing a friction pad in a direction separating apart from the disc rotor, and upper and lower claw portions which are located separately on the upper and lower sides of the pad-return portion. The upper and lower claw portions of the biasing member are brought into abutment against upper and lower groove portions respectively with a frictional resistance When a lining of the friction pad is worn away and the friction pad is pressed in a direction approaching to the disc rotor in accordance with the wear of the lining, the movement of the entire biasing member in the direction approaching to the disc rotor inside a pad guide is allowed by the upper and lower claw portions serving as wear-following portions.</p> |
