Abstract: A brake wear sensor of a disc brake includes a sensor unit, a gearbox cooperating with the sensor unit, and a central drive element which is engaged with the gearbox for an input variable or characteristic variable associated with brake wear. The brake wear sensor also includes at least one additional input for a further input variable or characteristic variable.

Abstract: A disc brake, in particular, for a commercial vehicle, has a brake caliper which engages over a brake disc, brake linings which make contact with the brake disc in a functional position, and a brake application device with which one of the brake linings can be pressed, via at least one adjusting spindle, against the brake disc. An adjustment device is rotationally fixed to the adjusting spindle, by which wear-induced change in the running clearance between the brake lining and the brake disc can essentially be compensated. A closure lid covers the adjustment device and is attached to the brake caliper. A lining wear sensor communicates with a step-down gear mechanism connected to the adjusting spindle. The lining wear sensor is embodied as a contactless sensor which rotates on a concentric path has its change in angular position detected by the lining wear sensor and transmitted to an evaluation device.

Abstract: A disc brake, particularly for a utility vehicle, includes a caliper having a receiving space for an application device. The caliper straddles a brake disc and is movable into an operative connection with brake pads, and is fastened to a brake anchor plate. A holding clip is releasably fastened to the caliper, on which holding clip springs acting upon exterior edges of the brake pad are supported. The holding clip, by way of its end facing away from the receiving space rests in a receiving device of the caliper. For the fastening of the holding clip at its end facing the receiving space on the caliper, a bolt is provided onto which the holding clip is fitted and is held by way of a securing device.
