Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce weight of each torque receiving member and cylinder by constituting a pair of calipers by combination of a plurality of parts. CONSTITUTION:A disc passing groove 1b is provided in the center of the disc axial direction of symmetrical torque receiving face 1a, and a mounting unit 1c to a fixing member is formed on one end face of a disc. The adjacent torque receiving members 1 are connected through a cylinder in which the two members are opposed on one end face side and the other end face side of the disc. Therefore, even if the number of use of torque receiving members is 2 or more, they can be connected integrally to become a pair of calipers, and weight can be reduced.

Disc brakes with a large braking capacity employ a method in which a plurality of actuators for pressing a friction material, such as pistons, are arranged in the circumferential direction of the disc, and these are assembled into a single caliper. This type of disc brake is generally called a multi-pot type, but in a so-called actuator-opposed type disc brake, in which a pair of friction materials that sandwich the disc rotor are pressed separately by opposing actuators, the number of actuators in the rotor circumferential direction is Increasing the caliper greatly increases the size and weight of the caliper, making its casting, machining, assembly, etc. difficult.

In addition, conventional disc brakes have the disadvantage that the number of actuators housed in the caliper is fixed, so the brake capacity cannot be increased or decreased, and the types of vehicles equipped with them are limited to a narrow range.

Although there is already a technique in which an inner caliper and an outer caliper are molded separately and then bolted together to form a single caliper, it is impossible to change the caliper amount due to the large weight.
