ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a brake pad retaining plate assembly which is a sub-assembly which can be simply bolted to the plate of a brake shoe assembly. This sub-assembly basically comprises a retaining plate which has a pair of bolts screwed into parallel bores in one end of the plate, the shafts of the bolts extending through aligned bores in first and second plate members. A spring engages over the shaft of each bolt and engages against the retaining plate, biassing the plate members towards the heads of the bolts; the plate member nearest to the retaining plate being adapted to be secured to the shoe plate. Thus the brake pad retaining assembly of the present invention can be mounted simply by bolting the plate member nearest the retaining plate, to the shoe plate. Further, the retaining plate can only be released by engaging a suitable tool between the plate members. Thus accidental release cannot occur.
