A disc brake for a commercial vehicle is provided. The disc brake includes a brake caliper, preferably in the form of a sliding caliper, straddling a brake disc, being arranged on a fixed backing plate, and having an application device for applying the brake. The disk brake also includes two brake pads, each having a pad carrier and an affixed friction pad, and each being inserted into a pad shaft of the backing plate. The brake caliper has a central caliper opening over the disc brake. A hold-down bar is provided, designed in such a way that, of the two brake pads, it radially secures only the reaction-side brake pad in its lining shaft in the backing plate. The hold-down bar is held on the brake caliper by its end facing away from the brake pad. Additionally, the application-side brake pad is radially interlockingly secured in its pad shaft in the backing plate. The application-side brake pad has a brake pad spring, which is held on the application-side brake pad and includes ends which rest resiliently on horns of the backing plate.

Disc brake for a commercial vehicle, brake pad, and brake pad set

A disc brake for a utility vehicle, with a brake caliper which overlaps a brake disc, is preferably designed as a sliding caliper, is fastened to a positionally fixed brake carrier and has a central caliper opening above the brake disc, with an application device for applying the brake, and with two brake pads which are insertable through the caliper opening and each have a pad carrier and a friction pad fastened thereto, of which brake pads the one brake pad, as an application-side brake pad, can be pressed against the brake disc on the one side of the brake disc by the application device, and the other, as a reaction-side brake pad, is arranged on the opposite side of the brake disc, is distinguished in that a holding-down clamp is provided which is designed in such a manner that it radially secures only one of the two brake pads in the pad slot.

Disc brake for a utility vehicle, brake pad and brake pad set

A disc brake for a vehicle, in particular for a commercial vehicle, is provided. The disc brake includes at least one application-side brake pad and a back-side brake pad held in a form-fitting manner in a brake carrier. At least the application-side brake pad is provided with at least one pad-retaining spring which is supported at least on one brake carrier horn of the brake carrier and exerts a radially outwardly acting tensile force on the brake pad.

Disc brake and set of brake pads

A disc brake for a vehicle, in particular for a commercial vehicle, includes a brake carrier which receives at least two brake pads in respective clamping side and rear side pad slots, with the at least one brake pad on the clamping side being held in its pad slot in a form-fitting manner. The at least one brake pad on the clamping side is provided with at least one pad retaining spring which is supported at least on a brake carrier horn of the pad slot of the brake carrier. The at least one clamping spring exerts a tensile force acting radially outward on the brake pad. A brake pad set for the disc brake is also provided.
