ABSTRACT:
In a spot-type disc brake the pads are insertable in a substantially peripheral direction through openings in an end of the brake. In service the openings are blocked by a closure member which has to block the two openings two limbs each extending through the openings to engage the pads. The member is pivotal about an axis parallel to the rotational axis of the brake's disc and disposed outside the disc's periphery. The brake's caliper is made in two halves bolted together and has blind journals receiving trunnions integral with the member. The drag force tends to act along the limbs so that the drag force is taken substantially entirely by the trunnions.
