Abstract
Ce frein à disque est pourvu d'une paire de plaquettes et d'un corps d'étrier. Dans la direction axiale du rotor, la longueur combinée d'un espace d'assemblage de plaquette et d'une partie coulissante de plaquette sur le côté extérieur ou le côté intérieur est plus courte que l'épaisseur de deux plaquettes. La partie d'extrémité côté rotor de disque de l'une des deux parties coulissantes de plaquette est positionnée de telle sorte que, lorsque l'une des plaquettes est agencée selon une position correspondant à la partie d'extrémité de l'autre de la paire de parties coulissantes de plaquette dans une direction s'éloignant du rotor de disque, l'espace entre cette plaquette et la partie d'extrémité côté rotor de disque est plus long que l'épaisseur d'une seule des plaquettes.
