Abstract
Links are provided for linking a brake caliper pivotally supported through a pin to a vehicle body. A master cylinder is fixed to the vehicle body and is constructed of a first link having one end pivotally supported through a pin to the brake caliper and the other end pivotally supported through a pin to an input member of the master cylinder. A second link is provided having one end pivotally supported through a pin to the vehicle body and the other end pivotally supported through a pin to the first link at an intermediate portion thereof. When the brake caliper is swung in a first direction by a brake reaction force received from a brake disc, the input member is upwardly driven through the first link and the second link, and the master cylinder is operated to generate a secondary brake hydraulic pressure.
