A disc brake comprising a floating stirrup and a brake piston controlled via a motion conversion cartridge (200) comprising a rear part pressed against the bottom of the stirrup and a control shaft passing through the bottom. The front part of the cartridge is pressed against the brake piston. It comprises a piston (240) provided with a plate (242) cooperating with the plate (212) of the control shaft (210) with the interposition of balls cooperating with tracks in the form of ramps for transforming the relative rotational motion of the plate (212) relative to the other (242) into a translational motion of the piston (240). The cartridge (200) is held in place in its housing (113) by a cage (260) attached elastically to the wall of the housing. The plate of the piston (240) comprises longitudinal grooves (243) receiving the branches (233) of a lock (230) which is elsewhere blocked in rotation in the housing of the stirrup while leaving the conversion piston (240) free in translation.
A disc brake comprising a floating stirrup (100) straddling the brake disc (2) bearing a fixed shoe (3) and forming a cylinder (110) housing a piston (5) bearing a mobile shoe (4) for clamping the brake disc,
