Abstract
In a braking apparatus, a buffering member that is formed using a flexible material is disposed between a fixed portion and a movable portion. An accommodating recess portion that accommodates and holds the buffering member is disposed on a buffering member holding portion that includes at least one of the fixed portion and the movable portion. An opening portion that communicates with an external portion of the buffering member holding portion is disposed on a portion of a side surface of the accommodating recess portion. The buffering member is removable from and insertable into the accommodating recess portion through the opening portion from a direction that is perpendicular to a direction of displacement of the movable portion.
