A disc brake for utility vehicles includes a brake disc, a first brake lining on a first side of the brake disc and a second brake lining on a second side of the brake disc opposite the first side. A spreading device is also provided which generates a force that moves the first and the second brake lining away from one another.

Disc brake, in particular for utility vehicles

A pneumatically or electromechanically actuated disk brake includes a brake disk having a preferred direction of rotation in forward travel, a brake carrier extending around the brake disk, a brake caliper extending around the brake disk, a fastening-side brake pad with a friction material, an application device having a pressure-exerting device on one side of the brake disk, and a rim-side brake pad with friction material. A fastening-side line of gravity, in the rest state of the brake, is arranged with a predetermined first offset with respect to a central axis in the direction of the entry side of the brake disk in the preferred direction of rotation. A rim-side line of gravity is arranged either with a predetermined second offset with respect to the central axis, the second offset being unequal to the first offset, or with a third offset with respect to the central axis.

Pneumatically or electromechanically actuated disk brake for utility vehicles

A disk brake includes a brake disk with a preferred rotational direction, with a first brake pad with a first center of gravity on a first side of the brake disk, a second brake pad with a second center of gravity on a second side of the brake disk, and a caliper for transmitting the braking forces produced by the second brake pad to the first side of the brake disk. The second center of gravity is offset from the first center of gravity by a predetermined distance in the direction toward the side of the brake disk that trails when the disk is rotating in its preferred direction.
