ABSTRACT:
A crown-type caliper brake is disclosed comprising a cylindrical braking member and a C-shaped caliper member. The caliper member is mounted for sliding movement on the leg member of a fixed support of the brake. To this end a lobe on the caliper member has an opening which is received on the leg member extending parallel to the gripping axis of the brake along the direction of which the brake pads are applied by the caliper member against the braking member. The leg member is preferably of rectangular contour with its sides parallel to the axial gripping plane of the brake in sliding contact with corresponding surfaces in the lobe. Play between the other sides of the leg member and corresponding surfaces in the lobe is taken up by a leaf spring. Pins or studs extending between the limbs of the caliper member, or the intermediate portion of the caliper member itself, block the brake pads against circumferential displacement.
