Abstract
The invention relates to an electromechanical brake comprising a stack of disks and at least one electromechanical actuator having a pusher for applying pressure to the stack of disks in controlled manner, the brake being equipped with a parking device for maintaining pressure on the disks at least while the brake is not fed with electrical current. In the invention, the parking device comprises a resilient member and a selector which is mounted to move between a first position in which the resilient member is mechanically decoupled from the pusher and is maintained in an elastically deformed state to form a potential energy reserve, and a second position in which the resilient member is mechanically coupled to the pusher so that the pusher exerts pressure on the stack of disks under drive from the resilient member.
