Abstract
The brake mechanism for a disc brake is received in a caliper by means of pivots. The brake mechanism comprises a lever, a cross bar, a thrust yoke and an adjuster mechanism. The thrust yoke is provided with braces going diagonally from the center of the thrust yoke down to the backside of the thrust plate. The structure of the thrust yoke ensures that the force is applied in distinct, separated areas of the brake pads. The brake mechanism is held together as one unit which facilitates handling and assembly.
