ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a thrust plate spring for a disc brake with a caliper (10) sliding on a fixed support (12) comprising a first friction component (14) which is capable of being applied to one surface of a brake disc by means of a brake actuator through a thrust plate (34), and a second friction component which is capable of being applied to the other surface of the disc through the sliding caliper. According to the invention, the spring (64) comprises an elongated metal leaf which is fixed to the thrust plate (34) and which co-operates with an external peripheral portion (80) of the caliper (10) pushing the plate (34) radially outwards by bearing radially against the corresponding surfaces (50) associated with the fixed support (12).
