ABSTRACT:
A hydraulically actuated fully lined disc brake assembly for braking a wheel of a motor vehicle has a brake housing which is provided with a gap which is open on its radially exterior side. Brake discs which fully line the brake housing are disposed in the gap and are supported on a removable bracket which is fixed against rotation. The brake discs are fixed against rotation with the wheel but are free to move axially. A hydraulic actuating mechanism is disposed in the gap between the brake discs and is designed to apply pressure against the discs at their radial center point to actuate the brake discs at their most efficient radii. The brake housing is supported on the wheel and can be removed for replacement of the brake discs after the wheel has been removed without disassembly of the brake actuating mechanism.
