  • Patent number: 10378602
    Abstract: A disc brake for a commercial vehicle has a brake caliper spanning a brake disc on the vehicle side, in which brake caliper a clamping device is arranged which has a pivotable brake lever engaging in at least one bridge carrying a brake plunger, which at the same time is directly or indirectly supported at the inner side of a wall of the brake caliper. The contact area of the bridge at the brake lever or of the brake lever at the brake caliper is configured as a pivot bearing having a bearing shell cross-sectionally configured as an arc forming a part of the pivot bearing. The bearing shell is placed in a seating. The disc brake is configured such that the bearing shell is located in the pivoting direction of the brake lever with its opposite longitudinal borders at stop edges, which longitudinally limit the trough-shaped seating.
