Abstract: The present invention relates to a coupling apparatus for the pivoted coupling of a vehicle having two vehicle sections, with coupling elements which are arranged to pivot towards each other, and which can be permanently coupled to a vehicle section. A brake arrangement operates between the coupling elements and forms an adjustable frictional grip between the coupling elements, which blocks the ability of the vehicle sections to pivot toward each other. In addition, the brake apparatus includes a hydraulic cylinder unit which operates on multiple radially acting brake elements.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a wear compensating device for a shoe brake having a brake lever, which brake lever supports a brake lining which acts on a brake body, and which brake lever is adjustable by an actuating arrangement about a main axis between a braking position and a releasing position. The wear compensating device has a first adjusting device which is arranged on the brake lever and which acts on a stop in such a way that the latter, as an actuating travel delimitation, acts on the first adjusting device and therefore at the same time on the brake lever and defines a corresponding releasing position.

Abstract: A brake with an automatically adjustable stop (15) which interacts with a counterstop on base frame (2) and which is coupled to brake disk (3) for readjustment of brake jaw (5) in its venting position according to the wear which has occurred on brake linings (12).

Abstract: A partially lined disc brake of a compact and simple design with a brake capacity variable over a wide range and characterized by braking reliability of a high order is suitable for use both with a single brake caliper and with a double brake caliper. The partially lined disc brake is characterized by virtue of the use of a single release unit only, offset outwards in the brake disc plane, by a simple, trouble free drive for closing and opening the brake calipers, and a reliable brake-lining wear-compensation device.
