Disc brake
A pad spring has a guide part which is attached to come into contact with an inner side surface and a bottom surface on an outer side in a disc radial direction of a pad guide, and guides the friction pad in a disc axial direction, and an extension part which extends from the guide part in a direction away from the friction pad and comes into contact with a side surface of a torque receiving part of the attachment member by a projecting piece part on a distal end side to press the side surface of a torque receiving part. The extension part is provided with a pressing operation part which is pressed to move the projecting piece part in a direction away from the side surface of the torque receiving part.
1. A disc brake comprising:
an attachment member which is configured to be attached to a non-rotating part of a vehicle and has a recessed pad guide;
a caliper slidably provided on the attachment member;
a pair of friction pads which have projecting parts configured to be inserted into the pad guide, and are pressed against both sides of the disc by the caliper; and
a pad spring which is attached to the attachment member to elastically support the friction pads,
wherein the pad spring comprises:
a guide part which is attached to come into contact with an inner side surface and a bottom surface on an outer side in a disc radial direction of the pad guide, and guides the friction pad in a disc axial direction,
an extension part which extends from the guide part away from the friction pad,
an intermediate curved plate part provided on the extension part, the intermediate curved plate part being curved to be folded back to the friction pad in a thickness direction of the guide part,
a projecting piece part extending from the intermediate curved plate part, the projecting piece part coming into contact with a side surface of a torque receiving part of the attachment member to press the side surface of the torque receiving part, and
a pressing operation part which is pressed to move the projecting piece part away from the side surface of the torque receiving part.
2. The disc brake according to claim 1 , wherein the pressing operation part is provided between the projecting piece part of the extension part and the guide part.
3. The disc brake according to claim 2 , wherein the pressing operation part is formed to protrude partially from the extension part.
4. The disc brake according to claim 1 , wherein the pressing operation part is provided on a side opposite to the guide part compared to the projecting piece part of the extension part.
5. The disc brake according to claim 4 , wherein the pressing operation part is formed to protrude partially from the extension part.
6. The disc brake according to claim 1 , wherein the pressing operation part is formed to protrude partially from the extension part.
