Patent ID: 8869950

Claim:
A floating disc brake comprising: a support, fixed to a vehicle body in a vicinity of a rotor rotating together with wheels; a pair of pads, arranged at both axial sides of the rotor, moveably guided in an axial direction of the rotor by the support, and having a lining provided on a surface of a pressure plate, respectively; a caliper, configured to be axially displaced in the axial direction of the rotor in a state where the caliper is supported by the support; a pad clip, provided between the respective pads and the support, and configured to prevent the respective pads from moving with respect to the support; and a return spring, pressing the pads in a direction away from the rotor, wherein at a state before the pad is mounted, a part of the pad clip includes a constraining section receiving an elastic urging force of the return spring to support the return spring with the return spring mounted to the pad clip, wherein the pad clip is arranged between the support and the pressure plate and has a leg section having the constraining section provided at a part thereof, wherein the return spring is a bent wire rod and includes an abutting section abutted to the constraining section by an elastic restoring force thereof, a returning section provided at a rotor-side end portion so as to extend toward a side of the rotor, an engaging section engaged to a part of the pad clip and receiving a reactive force due to pressing of the returning section to the pad, and a coil section provided between the returning section and the engaging section and having a central axis substantially oriented in a rotational direction of the rotor, and wherein the returning section contacts a surface of a part of a circumferential end portion of the pressure plate, the surface facing a side surface of the rotor.
