Abstract
A multi-disc brake, in particular for a road vehicle, includes parallel plates which are arranged at a distance from one another and which are rotationally stable and between which a rotatable brake disc is positioned. The radially extending plates and the brake discs can be pressed against one another during braking while overcoming a clearance and once the brake is released, the discs are separated from each other thus forming a clearance. The brake discs are pressed individually in the non-brake position by axially working restoring springs and/or in groups counter to an axially stationary stop, which stop can be rotated with the brake discs.
