Disc brake, brake caliper of a disc brake, as well as hold-down piece and leaf spring for securing the brake linings of a disc brake

Abstract

The invention relates to a disc brake comprising a brake caliper (), which engages over a brake disc that can rotate on an axis (A) and brake linings () arranged on both sides thereof in a lining groove (), comprising a hold-down arrangement () formed by a rigid hold-down piece () and a leaf spring () and leading transversely over the brake linings (), wherein the hold-down piece () has a central section () forming the majority of its total length and leading over the lining groove (), and two end sections (), wherein the hold-down piece is supported against the brake linings () towards the disc brake axis (A), and wherein said hold-down piece extends at least partially into a slot () of the brake caliper () with the first end section () thereof, and wherein the leaf spring () extends in the longitudinal direction of the hold-down piece () and is spring-elastically supported against the outer side of the hold-down piece () facing away from the brake linings (). In order to more simply configure the fixing of the elements of the hold-down arrangement in terms of assembly and production, without thereby weakening the fixture, the first end section () of the hold-down piece () is angled in relation to the central section ().
