Abstract
A floating caliper type disc brake including a caliper being slidably supported on a stationary member, a resilient member interposed between a sliding portion of the caliper and the stationary member, the caliper having a bridge portion extending over a portion of the circumference of a disc and a pawl portion rigidly connected to the bridge portion for acting on one of friction pads, and a pad spring interposed between the bridge portion of the caliper and friction pads. The improvement comprises in that a projection is formed on backing plate of the one friction pad, and a retaining portion is formed in the pawl portion of the caliper for engaging with the projection of the friction pad thereby receiving the biassing force of the pad spring.
