ABSTRACT:
A disc brake comprising a piston mounted in a cylinder associated with a carrying member movable towards a rotary disc from an idle position to urge directly a friction pad towards the corresponding face of the disc is disclosed. The friction pad slidably cooperates with appropriate surfaces defined on two circumferentially spaced edges of an aperture provided in the carrying member, at least one of the edges comprising a slot offset towards the piston relative to the appropriate surfaces to permit radial extraction of the pad when the latter is brought opposite the slot. The piston is adapted to be pushed back away from the disc towards its idle position in opposition to an automatic adjuster associated with the piston to permit radial extraction of the pad by introduction of a tool between the pad and the piston after removal of a wedge forming element normally inserted therebetween.
