20100116600 | FIXEDLY CONNECTED PAD RETAINING SPRING FOR A BRAKE PAD - A system for retaining a back plate of a disc brake pad is described. The system includes an elongated resilient element for applying a force to the back plate, a base of the resilient element extending along an edge of the back plate, contacting the edge along a majority of its length, legs of the resilient element, extending from the base, generating the force applied to the back plate by the base when deformed by a compression element, and retaining elements for preventing axial displacement of ends of the resilient element, and lateral slipping of the resilient element. | 05-13-2010 |
