Abstract
The brake has a sliding yoke (14) in the form of a closed framed structure surrounding the stationary support of the brake and straddling the disc, the outer part (52) of the yoke being connected to the inner part (51) by at least one axially extending elongated reinforcing member (62) arranged radially beyond the periphery of the disc (12), the outer part (52) of the yoke biasing the outer pad (34) at two zones (54, 56) located radially on both sides of the pressure center of the brake hydraulic motor (24).
