An assembly has two pads having a support plate and a friction material coating, each pad being accommodated in a pocket of a caliper and positionable on a side of a brake disc. At least one spring applies an elastic bias on the pads so as to elastically bias the pads away from the brake disc. The support plate has a plate coupling portion having an inner lower edge, facing the brake disc in a radially inward direction or towards the rotation axis, an inner upper edge, facing the brake disc in a radially outward direction or opposite to the rotation axis, the inner upper edge continuing on a direct upper surface according to the axial direction (A-A), forming an upper spring-coupling plate portion edge. The spring is always in contact exclusively with the inner lower edge and the upper spring-coupling plate portion edge.

A disk brake includes a brake disk, a brake caliper, which fits over the brake disk, a brake support, a brake pad and an application device, which presses the brake pad against the brake disk when braking, wherein the brake pad rests in a U-shaped well and the two legs of the “U” serve to support the brake pad in the circumferential direction of the brake disk and the “base” of the “U” serves to support the brake pad radially toward the inside. The distance between the two legs of the “U” is shorter at the radially outer ends thereof than the distance at the radially inner ends thereof.

A disc brake includes a pair of end-side connector parts that connect a pair of cylinder parts across over a disc rotor, and an intermediate connector part that is installed between the end-side connector parts and that connects the pair of cylinder parts across over the disc rotor and brake pads. The brake pads are provided with protrusion segments that are formed at positions that are outer end sides in a rotor radial direction and that protrude in directions separated from middle portions of the brake pads in a rotor rotational direction, and the end-side connector parts are provided with pad engaging faces on which inner regions in the rotor radial direction of the protrusion segments are oppositely disposed and which are formed of the same member as a caliper main body.

A bicycle disc brake caliper is provided that may include a caliper body with a brake disc slot configured to at least partially accommodate a disc brake rotor removably arranged therein, first and second brake pads movably arranged in the brake disc slot relative to one another to contact the disc brake rotor arranged at least partially in a space between the first and second brake pads, and a spacer movably attached to the caliper body. The spacer may be configured to be positioned in a first position outside the space when the disc brake rotor is arranged in the brake disc slot, and the spacer may be configured to move from the first position to a second position in which the spacer is positioned in the space when the disc brake rotor is removed from the brake disc slot.

The present invention discloses a concealed dual moving disc brake, comprising left and light calipers, static discs, moving discs, and a drawing arm and brake cable. The calipers are fixed together via a caliper-fastening screw. The static discs are riveted within the calipers. In rolling paths of the static discs, a left and a right steel ball are provided. The drawing arm is mounted inside the static discs. The brake pads are moved toward each other during braking, such that the disc is located centrally without deformation to prolong service life. Simple and easy mounting adjustment is performed, only if the brake lever is held to lock the disc brake. The drawing arm is concealed within the head cover to form a succinct and aesthetic appearance. This product is the connection between the high-end mechanical disc brake and the low-end oil pressure disc brake with significant market prospect and potential.

A pad for a brake caliper for a disc brake of a vehicle having a caliper body and a brake disc adapted to abut against a braking band of the brake disc. The pad has at least one plate and one friction material supported by the plate. The plate has a first side and a second side arranged at opposite tangential ends of the plate. The plate also has at least a first side ear and at least a second side ear. The two ears are each provided with slots. The two slots are adapted to accommodate corresponding associable pins mounted to the caliper body with clearance.

A brake caliper, in particular a sliding caliper, of a disc brake of a commercial vehicle includes a brake application portion, which extends around a holding space for holding at least one brake application device; a caliper back; two tension struts, which run substantially parallel and at a distance to one another and connect the brake application portion to the caliper back; a closure cover, which closes the holding space; and an interface for mounting a pivotable brake lever on the side of the brake application portion facing away from the closure cover. A mounting opening for inserting and removing brake pads is formed between the brake application portion, the caliper back and the tension struts. The ratio of the length of the brake application portion to the sum of the length of the brake application portion and the length of a tension strut is between 0.4 and 0.3.

A disc brake assembly having an anchor bracket, a disc type of service brake assembly having a first brake caliper configured to be secured to the anchor bracket; and an electric disc type of parking and emergency brake assembly having a second brake caliper configured to be secured to the anchor bracket.

In an opposed-piston disc brake caliper, a pair of reinforcement bridge portions, which are inclined relative to an axial direction, are provided on outside of a rotor in a radial direction of the rotor so as to define corner opening portions in an opening portion which is defined by an inner body portion, an outer body portion, and an entry-side connection portion and an exit-side connection portion connecting the inner body portion and the outer body portion. A torque receiving portion of one of the entry-side torque receiving portion and the exit-side torque receiving portion is exposed toward an outside in the radial direction via the corner opening portions.

A brake caliper for a disc brake has a caliper body straddling a brake disc. The caliper body has a thrust device housing accommodating a thrust device configured to apply a bias on at least one brake pad to abut the at least one brake pad against braking surfaces of the brake disc. The thrust device is operatively connected to a translating screw nut. The translating screw nut is operatively connected to a worm. The worm is operatively connected to a gearbox and rotatably supported by a screw thrust bearing configured to apply for the worm an axial reaction. At least one part of the gearbox is rotatably supported by at least one gearbox thrust bearing configured to apply for the at least one part of the gearbox a radial reaction. The screw thrust bearing and the gearbox thrust bearing are a same thrust bearing.
