A brake caliper comprising: a set of brake pads positioned on each side of a brake disc; a first actuator including a first drive gearwheel driving a first mobile piston pressing against a first portion of brake pad in order to move same; a second actuator including a second drive gearwheel driving a second mobile piston pressing against a second portion of the pad in order to move same, with a mode of operation that is the opposite of that of the first actuator; a first and a second worm screws which are secured to one another and of opposite hand to one another, rotationally driven and capable of translational movement in their longitudinal direction and in mesh with the first and second gearwheels respectively in order to turn these in opposite directions.

A motor gear unit for a disc brake apparatus is provided. A speed reduction mechanism is connected to a first connection portion of a motor shaft of an electric motor. A non-excited operation type brake is connected to a second connection portion of the motor shaft.

In a state where the disc brake apparatus is attached to a vehicle body, the motor shaft is disposed so as to be orientated in an upper-lower direction, and the non-excited operation type brake is disposed above the electric motor.

Provided is an electric braking device wherein a friction member is pressed, via a piston driven by an electric motor, against a rotary member that rotates integrally with a vehicle wheel, thus generating a braking force on the vehicle wheel. The electric braking device is provided with: a controller for controlling the electric motor; a rotation angle sensor for detecting a rotation angle of the electric motor; and a return mechanism for applying a return force to a piston in a direction away from the rotary member. Furthermore, the controller executes a proper/improper determination to determine whether the return mechanism is operating properly on the basis of a change in the rotation angle after conduction of electricity to the electric motor is stopped.
