  • Patent number: 11835098
    Abstract: A disc brake device includes a pair of pads, a pad support member supporting at least one of the pair of pads in a movable manner in an axial direction, and a plurality of pistons configured to press the one of the pads toward the rotor in the axial direction. Slide engagement portions engaged with the pad support member so as to be movable in the axial direction are respectively provided at both side portions of the one of the pads in a circumferential direction. The one of the pads is fixed to a tip end portion of at least one piston including a piston arranged at an end portion on a rotation-in side or a rotation-out side among the plurality of pistons, and is not fixed to a tip end portion of a remaining piston.

  • Patent number: 11320011
    Abstract: A caliper for an opposed-piston disc brake, includes a pair of bodies provided at two sides of a rotor that rotates with a wheel, each of the bodies including five cylinders. A central cylinder among the five cylinders provided on each of the bodies, which is surrounded by four of the cylinders, has a center which is located in a region on a radially inner side relative to an outer reference circle and on a radially outer side relative to an inner reference line. The outer reference circle passes through a center of a cylinder provided on a radially outermost side among the four of the cylinders and has a center thereof on a center of the rotor. The inner reference line passes through centers of two of the cylinders provided on a radially inner side among the four of the cylinders.

  • Publication number: 20210215212
    Abstract: A pad pin receiver includes a body plate is attached to an inner side of a pin insertion portion provided in a back plate of a disc brake pad. The pin insertion portion engages with a pin inserted into the pin insertion portion during braking. The body plate covers a portion of an inner peripheral surface of the pin insertion portion. A bent plate is bent at at least one end portion of the body plate in a length direction of the body plate. When the body plate is attached to the pin insertion portion, the body plate extends in a thickness direction of the back plate, and the bent plate overlaps with the back plate in the thickness direction of the back plate.
