Abstract
A disc brake device comprises a pair of friction pads provided on opposite sides of a disc and a support member fixed to a stationary portion of a vehicle, each of the friction pads being of a sectorial shape so as to form slant side surfaces extending in the radial direction of the disc and so as to form stepped engaging portions at the inner edge portions thereof, the support member having first anchor portions onto which the slant side surfaces abut respectively and second anchor portions for receiving the stepped engaging portions, characterized in that elastic pressing members are interposed between end portions of the support member at disc run-in and run-out sides thereof at the time of forward running of the vehicle and outer edges of each of the friction pads, and pressing force of the elastic pressing members against the friction pads is made larger on the disc run-in side than on the disc run-out side.
