ABSTRACT:
A disc brake has a torque-carrying plate having a thickness substantially smaller than conventional plates, and yet is capable of carrying brake torque stably from the time the inner pad is brand-new until it is completely worn out. The torque-carrying plate has a plurality of protrusions extending in the axial direction of the disc so that its torque-carrying surface has a larger width than the thickness of the plate. The zigzag-shaped torque-carrying surface is symmetrical with respect to its longitudinal centerline so that the point at which the torque acts will be kept on the longitudinal center. Such a torque-carrying plate is easy to manufacture, light in weight, inexpensive, and can stabilize the braking effect of the disc brake.
