ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a disk-brake having a caliper (12) mounted slidably on a stationary support (10), comprising two friction elements (16, 18) received in an anchored and sliding member in the stationary support (10) and capable of coming into frictional engagement with the opposite faces of a rotating disk (14) during the actuation of a brake motor (14), an axial column (28 ) fixed to the stationary support (10) and received in a sliding manner in a corresponding bore formed in a caliper (12), and a mechanism (32) for locking the caliper (12) to the stationary support (10) in terms of rotation about the column (28). According to the invention, the mechanism (32) for locking the caliper (12) to the stationary support (10) comprises a self-locking mechanism (58, 78, 88).
