Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003087617
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a braking device for a motor vehicle. Said device comprises a first friction element (4) which can come into contact, on its first side (9), with a first side (11) of a second element (1) which is fixed to a wheel of the motor vehicle in order to decelerate the same, and a third element (12) for applying a braking effort. Said third element is in contact, on its first end (18), with a second side of the first friction element - the second side facing the first side (9) of the first friction element and can bring the first friction element (4) into contact with the second element (2). The invention is characterised in that the device also comprises an amplifying means (22) for modifying the incline of an inclinable plane (8) containing the contact between the first friction element (4) and the third element (12) for applying the braking effort, in relation to a plane (Q) containing the first side (11) of the second element (2).
