ABSTRACT:
A mechanically actuated, spot type disk brake, having a servo action regardless of the direction of rotation of the associated brake rotor. The brake includes a slidably supported caliper and a pair of brake shoes, at least one of which is mounted for limiting axial, radial and rotary movement. The mechanical actuator comprises a device that moves the brake pad in a radial direction to achieve actuation. A cam construction translates radial movement of the brake pad into axial movement for operating the brake. The same cam construction also translates rotary movement into axial movement for achieving self energization.
