Abstract
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).
