Abstract
A brake includes a caliper overlapping a disk. The brake also includes a first pad and a second pad which are carried by the caliper on either side of the disk. The brake further includes a first actuator including a first primary toothed wheel driving a first mobile piston pressing against the first pad in order to move same. The brake further includes a second actuator including a second primary toothed wheel driving a second mobile piston pressing against the second pad. The brake further includes a rotating shaft including a first and a second endless screw having opposite winding directions, the shaft being movable in translation. The brake further includes an electric motor for driving the rotating shaft. The first and second endless screws are engaged in the first and second primary toothed wheels respectively.
