Abstract

The pads (4) of a disc brake assembly are held symmetrically relative to guide surfaces (14) of a carrier by springs (9) which clip over the backing plate (5) of each pad (4). The springs (9) each comprise two arms (10) which depend from a bridge portion (11) and resiliently grip the backing plate The edges (13) of the arms are bent out of the plane of the arms (10) and frictionally engage the surfaces (14). During limited forward movement of the pad (4) towards the disc the frictional engagement holds the edge of the springs (9) in position and the springs resiliently deform. When the brakes are released the springs (9) relax, thus retracting the pads (4) clear of the disc. Forward movement beyond a predetermined amount causes the springs (9) to slip on the carrier so that the amount of retraction remains substantially constant. The springs (9) include a portion (12) which biases the pads (4) into contact with the carrier guide surfaces (3).
