ABSTRACT:
An actuating device for a disk brake operates two brake shoes to move axially against the opposite sides of the brake disk. Each brake shoe is connected by a pin to a brake caliper half. Each brake caliper half is comprised of two levers spaced one above the other, with one end of the lever attached to the respective brake shoe for the brake caliper half, the other end of the lever attached to the respective side of the actuator for the caliper halves and all of the levers being pivotable about a common mounting pin disposed between the brake shoes and the actuator. The levers of the pairs alternate so that each brake caliper half is slightly offset along the mounting pin from the central plane of the brake. All levers are identically shaped. Each pair of levers is connected by a respective pin at the actuator and a respective pin at the brake shoe.
