ABSTRACT:
A multi-plate type brake for a vehicle is provided in which a high braking force is realized during a forward motion of the vehicle and the braking force can be automatically reduced during a backward motion of the vehicle. A first rotary brake plate is connected to the rotary shaft. A second rotary brake plate is arranged around the rotary shaft in such a way that they may be rotated in a relative manner. A one-way clutch is installed between the rotary brake plate and the rotary shaft. A first fixed brake plate is overlapped on the first rotary brake plate, a second fixed brake plate is overlapped on the second rotary brake plate. A brake case is provided for unrotatably supporting the first and second fixed brake plates. A pressing member forcedly presses all the brake plates from each other, so that when the rotary shaft is rotated in a reverse direction, the second rotary brake plate is not applied to a braking action under a shut-off state of the one-way clutch.
