Improvements in self-energising disc brakes.

摘要

In a disc brake of the spreading type an actuator (15) acts to separate actuator lugs (16, 17) on the pressure plates (5, 6). Each lug (16, 17) is integral with an adjacent pilot (41) on the plate (5, 6) to form a common ear (45) which projects from the outer edge of the plate in both radial and circumferential directions.
