Patent number: 10670091Abstract: A disc brake includes a brake caliper that engages over a brake disc, the caliper having a central opening over the brake disc. The disc brake has two brake pads which are located in the brake caliper, can be moved in opposite directions and each of which has a pad backing plate with a friction lining secured thereon. An action-side or application-side brake pad of the two brake pads can be pressed against the brake disc by a brake application device with the aid of at least one brake plunger. The brake also has at least one restoring device, by which the brake caliper can be returned. The restoring device has a spreading device which engages on the brake pads lying opposite one another and which acts with an identical force in opposition to the respective application direction. The spreading device has spring-loaded spreading elements, each engaging on its respective pad backing plate.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2017Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: KNORR-BREMSE Systeme fuer Nutzfahrzeuge GmbHInventors: Jens Fricke, Abdelaziz Rguichi, Thomas Eichler, Oliver Krause, Matthias Klinger, Michael Peschel, Tobias Schoefberger, Philipp Adamczyk, Markus Molnar, Maximilian Hauser, Igor Nesmjanowitsch, Martin Heindl, Christian Brandl, Martin Pleintinger, Natalie Roth, Kerstin Sakel, Franz Gasslbauer, Martin Tropp, Alexander Asen

Publication number: 20180003249Abstract: A disc brake for a utility vehicle is provided. The brake caliper of the disk brake is configured to be mounted in an axially-displaceable manner on a stationary brake carrier by two fastening elements. The two fastening elements are plain bearings arranged in respective bores of the brake caliper, one as a locating bearing and the other as a floating bearing. The floating bearing includes a sliding bush made from a plastic, in particular an elastomer, and a guide rod configured to be connected to the brake carrier is mounted. The sliding bush is held on the guide rod secured against axial displacement between the guide rod and the inner wall of the respective brake caliper bore. The sliding bush is configured to carry a lubricant on its circumferentially outer surface and has sealing lips projects radially outward that bear against the inner wall of the respective bore.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2017Publication date: January 4, 2018Inventor: Alexander ASEN
