DISC BRAKE AND SHAKINESS PREVENTION SPRING CLIP

摘要

The clip 80 is comprised of a length of spring wire formed to provide two spaced clip leg segments joined by an intermediate segment. Each leg segment is formed adjacent the intermediate segment to abut spaced areas of the radially outer edge of a friction pad backing plate tab 67 and the ends of the clip leg segments are formed to abut spaced areas of the radially outer edge of the other friction pad backing plate tab 64. Stabilizing means 91, 92 of the clip are formed to extend radially inward and under the circumferentially spaced converging edges 50, 51 of an aperture 46 provided in the disc brake caliper bridge 42. A piston 43 formed integrally with a load applying plate 47 of similar contour to backing plate 35 of friction pad 34 moves that pad by action of suitable hydraulic or mechanical actuating means.
