Zusammenfassung:In a BIR type brake caliper according to the embodiment of the present invention, when a BIR (Ball in Ramp) type cartridge assembly, which generates an axial force while rotating, presses pads against a disk plate during parking braking, balls provided between input and output ramps of the cartridge assembly move along variable trajectories gradually decreased in a radial direction and increase a force. For this reason, even though an operation force of a parking lever is small, the cartridge assembly generates a force capable of maintaining a parking braking force. As a result, it is possible to obtain characteristic reducing an operation force, which should be applied to a parking handle by a driver.
