ABSTRACT:
A sliding saddle disk brake used as a parking or emergency brake has two opposed and spaced legs (4,6) on opposite sides of a brake disk (10), a cross member (8) connecting the legs and an activator (12) arranged in one brake saddle leg (4). First and second brake shoes (22) having linings (24) thereon are positioned between brake saddle legs (4,6). The brake saddle has projections (14,16) on opposite sides in which are supported respective bolts (18) extending parallel to the axis of the brake disk. The brake shoes have forked ends (26) supported for axial movement along the bolts. Two independent bracket members (28, 28') mounted on the vehicle have guide bores (34, 34') which receive corresponding bolts (18) with radial clearance to allow axial and radial movement of the saddle relative to the mounting bracket member (28, 28').
