Abstract
A force transmission device for a disc brake is operable to move a friction element of the brake into engagement with a rotary brake disc along a first axis in response to a loading from a thrust member. The device is restrained from movement transverse to the first axis near a first end engageable with the thrust member, but is unguided near a second end engageable with the friction element.
