Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
113 words
A disc for a disc brake comprising a central plate adapted to be mounted on a rotatable part, two identical braking portions located one on each side of the central plate and each comprising an annulus and providing a radial braking surface on its outer side having at its inner sideangularly spaced axially extending radial vanes of which the free ends abut and are held against the central plate, clamping means having a certain amount of resilience for holding the braking portions in engagement with the central plate, and coupling means for transmitting torque from the braking portions to the central plate and for maintaining the braking portions concentric with the central plate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
