Abstract

The invention relates to a brake with at least one stationary disc (10) and one axially movable disc (33). The movable disc (33) is mounted on hangers (17), themselves each fixed to a cylindrical column (16) parallel to the axis of the wheel. This column can move axially on bearings (15) carried by an extension (8) of the hub. This extension is in the form of a fork, with two teeth set apart axially and located on either side of the plate (2) forming the body of the hub. Seals (22) make it possible to maintain a reserve of grease in the region of the bearings (15).
