Abstract: An adjustment device is provided for adjusting the wear of brake pads and a brake disk of a disc brake, in particular of a pneumatically actuated disc brake. The disc brake includes a brake application device actuated by a rotary lever, which brake application device has an adjusting spindle into which the adjustment device is insertable. The adjustment device is attached to a brake caliper of the disc brake by way of a bearing disk. The adjustment device is provided with a spindle and at least one friction pairing, each friction pairing having two contact surfaces. The friction pairing has a curved cross-section of at least one of its two contact surfaces.

Abstract: A braking system and method provided for a utility vehicle pneumatically coupled to a trailer. The system has an electronic control unit, a valve device that can be electrically connected by the at least one electronic control unit, the valve device building up pressure for the trailer braking system when connected, causing the trailer to brake, and a pressure sensor which detects the pressure for the trailer braking system and transmits a corresponding signal to the electronic control unit. The electronic control unit can influence the pressure generated for the trailer braking system by pulsed connection of the valve device, taking into account the pressure detected by the pressure sensor for the trailer braking system.

Abstract: Control electronics integrated in a brake, preferably a disc brake, are provided in particular for utility vehicles. The disc brake includes a brake caliper covering a brake disc and a brake application device with pneumatic or electromotive actuation, located in the brake caliper and used for applying the brake. The control electronics monitors specific parameters of the brake and regulates braking components and is connected to a power supply. The control electronics is characterized in that it includes at least one transmitter/receiver unit which is in active connection with a sensor external to the brake, pertaining to the wheel or proximate the wheel.
