A disc brake including pads which are supported in sockets having an opening facing towards the disc. The pads each comprise blocks of friction material which are plugged into the sockets.

Disc brake

Brake linings for a disk brake with a brake disk, a brake caliper, and brake linings. The brake caliper features a lining well for the brake linings. The brake linings feature at least one friction lining and further feature on the side of the brake caliper at least one lip, which is disposed on the brake lining such that it extends beyond the friction face of the friction lining at the face of the brake disk, so that when installed it covers a gap formed between the brake disk and the friction face to protect it from infiltration of dirt from outside.

Disk brake lining with protective lip

A brake pad, preferably used disc bakes, comprises a profiled metal back plate, to which at least one friction lining is attached, characterized in that a material with lower heat conductivity, relative to the friction lining, is provided in at least some profile sections.

Brake pad

A wear monitoring apparatus for a disc brake, particularly a sliding caliper disc brake, is described. The disc brake has a sliding thrust piece which receives an application force exerted by an application mechanism, and a longitudinally adjustable transmission mechanism for transmitting the application force from the sliding thrust piece to a brake pad. Longitudinal adjustment of the transmission mechanism is a function of the extent of frictional wear of the brake pad. The wear monitoring apparatus includes a sensor for monitoring the mutual relative excursion of two elements which excursion is attributable to frictional wear of the brake pad. The sensor is mounted on the sliding thrust piece and/or the transmission mechanism and determines relative excursion between the sliding thrust piece and the transmission mechanism.

Wear monitoring apparatus for a disc brake

A brake application mechanism for a disc brake, particularly a sliding-caliper disc brake having an application shaft which extends parallel to the plane of the brake disc, wherein on the side of the shaft (8) which faces the brake disc (2) the shaft is supported against a thrust piece (9) which is movable against the brake disc (2), support being via a circularly arcuate first contour (17) which is rotatably mounted in a suitable bearing seat (18), and on the side of the shaft which faces away from the brake disc, the shaft is supported against an element with respect to which the thrust piece (9) is movable, support being via a second contour (21) which is eccentric with respect to the first contour. The second contour has at least two circular arcs (I, II) with their centers (P1, P2) and radii (R1, R2) chosen so that when the application shaft is rotated the magnitude of any movement of the thrust piece (9) relative to the application shaft (8) in a direction parallel to the plane of the brake disc is minimized.

Brake application mechanism for a disc brake

Leaf spring (18) for holding down the brake-lining carrier (25, 26), of a disc brake wherein the brake-lining carrier (25, 26) has a friction-lining free section (39) onto which is fixed a central holding section (27) of the leaf spring. The leaf spring has two uneven shanks (32, 33) which are each transversely angled from the central neck section (27) towards the brake-lining carrier. The shank (33) faces in a preferred direction of travel (D) towards the entrance side of the brake disc (2) and is bent away (35, 36, 37) from the brake-lining carrier radially outward (37) and abuts with its end (38) against the edge (22, 24) of an opening (17) of the caliper unit, which opening (17) accommodates friction-lining-free-section (39) of the brake-lining carrier (25, 26).
