Abstract

Multiple disc brake comprising a first rotary disc fixed to a hub connected to a rotating member to be braked and at least one second rotary disc capable of sliding axially relative to the hub and to the first disc, while at the same time being made integral in terms of rotation with the first disc. The connection between the second disc (2) and the hub (3) is made by way of at least two axially sliding shoes (22) which are uniformly distributed over a circle and which are each accommodated in an axial receptacle (23) of a cross-section matching that of the shoe (22). The invention is used on a multiple disc brake for motor vehicles.
