ABSTRACT:
In a spreading disc brake, actuating movement of an actuator assembly in a stationary housing can be effected hydraulically by a piston working in a cylinder and acting on a pull-rod through a rocking thrust coupling, and the pull-rod is adapted for connection to a hand-lever in order to apply the brake manually or mechanically. The thrust coupling is provided at an intermediate point in the length of a lever, a first pivotal connection is provided between the pull-rod and an intermediate point in the length of the lever, a second pivotal connection is provided between one end of the lever and the housing, and a third pivotal connection is provided between the opposite end of the lever and a transmission member for connection to the hand-lever.
