Abstract: The present invention relates to a sleeve (9) for a disk brake fitted with a caliper slidably mounted in a carrier by means of pins fixed rigidly to the caliper, said sleeve (9) being designed to receive one of said pins in a bore of the carrier. According to the invention, such a sleeve is characterized in that it has ribs (10, 11) on a surface designed to come into contact with the carrier so that said ribs (10, 11) may be deformed in order to increase said contact surface when the sleeve (9) is compressed by an activation of the brake.

Abstract: A mounting system for a brake pad in the housings of a disk brake yoke in which the brake pad comprises at its ends two mounting ears (10), each ear being mounted in a housing of a disk brake yoke. The mounting system comprises for each pad ear, a spring (5) of linear or lamella shape, intended to bear, on the one hand, below a lower face (12) of the ear and, on the other hand, on the lower face of the housing of the yoke so as to separate the lower face (12) of the ear from the lower face of the housing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a blown film coextrusion process. The process involves extruding core contact layers through a die exit at a specified speed and cooling, orienting and crystallizing the multi-layer film formed at a specified deformation rate to form a the frost line is a specified distance from the die exit by withdrawing film at a take up speed. The core and core contact layers are of a film forming polymer composition comprising at least 90 wt % of ethylene based polymer. The ethylene based polymer of the core layer has an average density of ethylene based polymers equal to or higher than that of ethylene based polymer of the core contact layers. The invention specifically concerns the feature that the core layer composition contains a portion of and the composition of the core contact layers contains a portion of a linear polyethylene so as to make the core layer more resistant to deformation than the skin layers.

Abstract: A disc brake comprising a floating stirrup and a brake piston controlled via a motion conversion cartridge (200) comprising a rear part pressed against the bottom of the stirrup and a control shaft passing through the bottom. The front part of the cartridge is pressed against the brake piston. It comprises a piston (240) provided with a plate (242) cooperating with the plate (212) of the control shaft (210) with the interposition of balls cooperating with tracks in the form of ramps for transforming the relative rotational motion of the plate (212) relative to the other (242) into a translational motion of the piston (240). The cartridge (200) is held in place in its housing (113) by a cage (260) attached elastically to the wall of the housing. The plate of the piston (240) comprises longitudinal grooves (243) receiving the branches (233) of a lock (230) which is elsewhere blocked in rotation in the housing of the stirrup while leaving the conversion piston (240) free in translation.
