Brake assembly with boot assembly

Abstract

A boot assembly for a vehicle brake comprises: a flexible boot having an end portion coupled to a housing accommodating at least some components of the vehicle brake including a rotatable body configured to be rotatable by an actuator to move a brake pad and a bearing configured to rotatably support the rotatable body and comprising a non-rotatable bearing race, wherein the boot supports the non-rotatable bearing race; and a boot retainer configured to hold the boot in a fixed position with respect to the housing. Another end portion of the boot is coupled to a linearly movable body configured to be translatable according to rotation of the rotatable body of the vehicle brake to seal an inner bore of the housing. The boot is coupled with one side of the non-rotatable bearing race to limit an axial movement of the non-rotatable bearing race away from the housing.
