Abstract: A force generating system including a lever mechanism fixed with respect to and interacting with a varying elastic deformation force take-up system and at a force application point of a given lever arm length; an energy-storing force generating device which acts upon the lever mechanism at a changeable position of its lever arm for supplying a portion of the energy stored in it when the lever arm length is increased and for at least partially taking up again the energy taken up by the force take-up system, when the lever arm length is decreased; and an adjusting arrangement for the controllable changing of the position in which the force generating device acts upon the lever arm of the lever mechanism. The force generating system is used in a disk brake system.
