A disc brake has a driven adjusting mechanism with a thrust shaft. A drive element of the adjusting mechanism is coupled to the thrust shaft in a manner such that the drive element and thrust shaft are mutually irrotational but are axially movable with respect to each other. A coupling is provided between the drive element and thrust shaft so that they can mutually move translationally in each of two directions, which directions are perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the thrust shaft. In this way, the adjustment of the brake is rendered insensitive to vibrations and oscillations, and to fluctuations due to manufacturing tolerances and assembly deviations. The process of assembly of the brake is also made simpler and easier.
