ABSTRACT:
A brake actuator vibration isolation system wherein a spring is provided between and separates an actuator and a lever of a caliper for retarding vibration of the actuator relative to the lever when the brake assembly is not actuated. The spring is preloaded by the actuator pin and one or more washers. The spring characteristics are selected to retard the anticipated vibration of the actuator relative to the lever when the brake caliper assembly is not actuated. Selecting includes selecting the preloading of the spring by the actuator pin, selecting the thickness of a washer about the actuator pin to vary the preloading of the spring, and selecting the material of the spring, its cross-section as well as other characteristics.
