A new integral disc brake with an automatically adjusted parking mechanism has been developed which is based on the principle of a collar locking onto a shaft under an eccentric load. This mechanism is inherently self-adjusting and load insensitive. The resultant caliper offers good bleedability, serviceability, reliability, efficiency and flexibility to chassis designers.
