FLOATING CALIPER SPOT TYPE DISC BRAKE

摘要

In a disc brake having a caliper axially movably guided at two parallel arms of a brake support and having a first brake shoe supported in the caliper and a second brake shoe supported and guided by the arms of the brake support, an arrangement provides a connection between the second brake shoe and one of the caliper and the brake support such that the caliper can follow the tangential movement of the first brake shoe when it is loaded during operation of the brake. By this arrangement uneven wear of the pads of the brake shoes is avoided.
