Abstract
The brake comprises a caliper (14) mounted for sliding on a fixed support by two axial columns (16 and 18) cooperating with bores (38, 40) formed in the caliper. The bores (38, 40) are provided with notches (42, 44) permitting the introduction of the columns (16, 18) transversely and without dismounting the latter. One of the columns (16) is equipped with a resilient sleeve (51) on which there is formed a projection (52) cooperating resiliently with the corresponding bore (38) of the caliper (14) to ensure functions of automatic recentring of the caliper and of anti-noise spring.
