ABSTRACT:
A single brake cylinder for directly loading an inner pad against a disc, and a yoke for indirectly loading an outer pad against the disc are both swingable, respectively, about a cylinder pivot axis and a yoke pivot axis which are both substantially parallel to the disc, and parallel or coincident with each other. When the brake is applied, the cylinder swings in one direction and the yoke swings in the opposite direction in such a manner that the trailing portion of each pad is loaded with a greater force to reduce brake noise.
