Exoskeleton Bridge of Dual-Pivot Brake Allowing Braking Forces to Transmit Through Center Plane of Dual-Pivot Brake

摘要

A dual-pivot brake includes first and second caliper arms linked together and disposed symmetrically with respect to each other. The dual-pivot brake further includes an exoskeleton bridge including two-piece bridge members consisting of first and second bridge members. The first and second bridge members are interconnected together by first and second axles, respectively. The first and second caliper arms are pivotally mounted on the first and second axles respectively and selectively move towards or away from each other in the operation of the dual-pivot brake.
