ABSTRACT:
The disc brake caliper housing is fully mounted on, supported and retained by the brake shoes of the brake pad assemblies. All brake torque forces are transmitted from the shoes to the fixed mounting bracket. The caliper housing is subjected only to axially clamping forces. In one embodiment no bolts or pins are required to support the caliper assembly, including the brake pad assemblies, on the mounting bracket. In another embodiment an uncomplicated roll pin arrangement supports and retains the shoes and the caliper housing on the mounting bracket.
