Abstract

A return spring is provided between a friction pad and a mount member. The return spring biases the friction pad in a return direction for separating the friction pad from the disk, and is made of a metallic plate. The return spring includes a fixation portion on a proximal end side thereof, and the fixation portion is fixed to an ear portion of a back plate of the friction pad. The return spring includes an abutment portion, and the abutment portion is in elastic abutment with an abutment plate portion of a pad spring, which corresponds to a mount member side, on an outer side in a disk radial direction relative to the fixation portion. The pad spring includes a guide portion extending in a disk axial direction and supporting a side surface of an intermediate portion of the return spring.
