Abstract: A floating caliper brake device for a railroad vehicle includes: a support pin that is supported by a cylindrical portion of a support frame in such a manner as to be slidable in a direction X; a caliper; a first and second brake shoe; a pressurizing device that moves the first brake shoe back and forth; an elastic member that is expandable and contractible in the direction X; a stopper member that is immovable relatively to the cylindrical portion in the direction X; and a moving member that is frictionally engaged with the support pin so as to be slidable in the direction X.

Abstract: A floating caliper brake device for a railroad vehicle 100 includes: a support frame 1 that has a cylindrical portion 1a; a support pin 2 that is supported by the cylindrical portion 1a in such a manner as to be slidable in a direction X; a caliper 3 that includes a first arm portion 3a and a second arm portion 3b; a first brake shoe 4; a second brake shoe 5 that is opposite to the first brake shoe 4; a pressurizing device 6 that moves the first brake shoe 4 back and forth; an elastic member 7 that is expandable and contractible in the direction X; a stopper member 8 that is immovable relatively to the cylindrical portion 1a in the direction X; and a moving member 9 that is frictionally engaged with the support pin 2 in such a manner as to be slidable in the direction X, wherein end portions on an L side of the elastic member 7 and the stopper member 8 are each supported by the cylindrical portion 1a, at least a portion of an end portion on an R side of the stopper member 8 overlaps the moving member 9 when v
