DISK BRAKE DEVICE

摘要

A disk brake device has a rotor, a carrier, a caliper, an inner pad, and a braking operation mechanism. The braking operation mechanism includes a base plate held by the caliper; a wedge plate which holds the inner pad; a first motion conversion mechanism which moves the wedge plate in a direction perpendicular to a braking surface while moving the wedge plate to slide in a rotating direction of the rotor; an electric motor which includes a motor output shaft which outputs a rotational driving force; and a second motion conversion mechanism which includes a cam drive shaft and moves the wedge plate to slide in the rotating direction of the rotor in parallel to the braking surface. The electric motor is attached to the caliper such that the motor output shaft is positioned on the outer circumferential side with respect to the cam drive shaft.

1. A disk brake device comprising:
a rotor having a disk-shaped braking surface and coupled to a rotating body to be braked to rotate; a carrier attached to a support member which rotatably supports the rotating body and disposed to face the braking surface of the rotor; a caliper attached to the carrier to be movable in a direction perpendicular to the braking surface; a friction pad disposed to face the braking surface of the rotor; and a braking operation mechanism attached to the caliper to be caused to perform an operation of pressing the friction pad against the braking surface, the braking operation mechanism comprising:
a base member held by the caliper;a slide member disposed to face the base member and holding the friction pad;a first motion conversion mechanism which moves the slide member in the direction perpendicular to the braking surface while moving the slide member to slide relative to the base member in a rotating direction of the rotor in parallel to the braking surface;an electric motor unit which includes an output shaft member which outputs a rotational driving force; anda second motion conversion mechanism which includes a drive shaft member driven by the output shaft member to rotate, the drive shaft member being driven to rotate to move the slide member to slide in the rotating direction of the rotor in parallel to the braking surface, the electric motor unit being attached to the caliper such that the output shaft member is positioned on an outer circumferential side with respect to the drive shaft member, and the disk brake device further comprising a driving force transmission mechanism which transmits the rotational driving force of the output shaft member to the drive shaft member.
