ABSTRACT:
A self-energizing disc brake of the spreading type is applied by a pair of oppositely acting hydraulic pistons which work in a common bore in the housing of the brake. One piston acts directly on an adjacent lug on a pressure plate and the other piston acts on a lug on a pressure plate through a transmission member which extends through the piston and may be coupled at its outer end to a hand-brake or similar lever.
