Disc brake

Abstract

Disclosed herein is a disc brake. The disc brake which has a carrier in which a pair of pad plates are installed retractably and a caliper housing having a cylinder that is slidably installed in the carrier and in which a piston is installed retractably by a braking hydraulic pressure includes an adjuster that is installed inside the piston to prevent the pad plate from being away from the disc and maintain a predetermined running clearance between the disc and the pad plate, a push rod whose front portion is screwed to the adjuster and whose rear portion extends toward an inner circumferential surface of the cylinder so that rotation is prevented, and that includes a flange portion installed inside the cylinder, a ramp that is disposed on a front side of the flange portion, and in which a first elastic member for providing an elastic force to the push rod is integrally provided, a spring case whose one end is fixed to the cylinder, and that forms a predetermined accommodating space between the inner circumferential surface of the cylinder and the push rod, and a second elastic member that is provided in the accommodating space of the spring case to provide an elastic force to the ramp and the push rod. Here, the first and second elastic members are arranged in series, and the first elastic member is bent so that a part of the ramp is elastically deformed.
