ABSTRACT:
A bracket of simplified, generally rectilinear form carries a pair of slide pins, on which the brake caliper is slidably mounted, at locations substantially aligned with each other radially of the brake disc and on that side of the brake caliper on which the rotating disc leaves the caliper behind. Use of such bracket enables substantial reduction in size and weight of the whole brake assembly. One of the slide pins located relatively close to the axis of the brake disc is removable and an ample working space is obtainable for exchange of the brake pads by swinging the caliper radially outwardly of the disc about the axis of the other slide pin. The brake pads are slidably mounted on a pair of hanger pins removably fitted to the caliper and normally held in place thereon by simple retainer means.
