Abstract

In a disc brake of the kind in which friction pads for engagement with opposite faces of a brake disc rotatable with the wheel are mounted in a non-rotatable caliper which straddles a portion of the periphery of the disc, the caliper being mounted to swing about an axis substantially at right angles to the axis of the brake disc, the friction pad on one side of the disc is located radially inwards from the pad on the other side and one pad is applied to an adjacent face of the disc by actuating means associated with the caliper, the other friction pad being applied to the other face of the disc by the reaction on the caliper. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, the brake disc is constructed as a ring 41 extending radially inwards from an axially extending flange which is secured by bolts 42 to a pressing 43 mounted on the hub of a wheel and this assembly is housed within the rim 44 of the wheel which is carried by a dished disc 45. The inner periphery of the ring 41 is straddled by a floating caliper 46 which is mounted-to swing about a stationary pivot 55. A friction pad 47 is adapted to engage the inboard face of the ring and is carried by a rigid backing plate 48 guided on pins 49 and urged into engagement with the disc by a piston rod 51 of a piston working in an hydraulic cylinder in the inboard limb of the caliper. A second friction pad 52 is mounted on a backing plate 53 and guided on members 55 to be located in the caliper on the outboard side of the ring and is urged into engagement with the outboard face of the ring by the reaction on the caliper when the hydraulic cylinder is pressurized. The friction pads 47, 52 are both tapered in a radial direction and the inner edge of the ring 41 is chamfered at 54 at such an angle that the clearance between this edge and the caliper does not vary appreciably as the friction pads wear and the angular position of the caliper changes.
