Abstract:
A device forming a plate for supporting at least one brake pad for a vehicle disc brake comprising, on the back of the supporting plate opposite to the pad, a noise-preventing plate fastened to the supporting plate by an adhesive, wherein the noise-preventing plate is assembled to the supporting plate by at least one assembling means made fast to the supporting plate in order to prevent any displacement of the noise-preventing plate in relation to the supporting plate in a plane substantially parallel to the plane of the supporting plate when the adhesive for securing the noise-preventing plate becomes softened due to heating which results from friction of the pad upon the a brake disc, wherein said assembling means comprises a boss having an overall transverse size which, in parallel relation to the supporting plate, is greater than its height projecting with respect to the supporting plate, said boss engaging a complementary mating shaped opening of the noise-preventing plate, wherein the supporting plate is curved and the boss is a central, single, solid formation having a rectangular shape and is positioned parallel or normal to a tangential direction of the curved supporting plate.
