ABSTRACT:
The invention is a brake shoe for application to the rim of a brake disc for retarding a rotary motion of the brake disc. The brake shoe has one or more brakepads having a pair of pad friction surfaces for contact with friction surfaces on the brake disc. The pair of pad friction surfaces are sloped in opposition to each other, and have an open space located between the pad friction surfaces. The brake shoe has a pad support structure to which the brakepad or brakepads are attached, the pad support structure serving to press the brake pad or brakepads against the friction surfaces on the brake disc. The pad support structure has a portion thereof for mounting on a device for positioning the brake shoe and for moving the brakepad or brakepads into engagement with the disc.
