  • Patent number: 11773937
    Abstract: An anti-lock sensor ring may have a flattened exciting portion having a retention mechanism projecting from a ring radial edge. The retention mechanism may have cantilever spring retention clips elastically deformable to snap on a disc brake band retention seat. The mechanism may also have a cantilever support portion disposed side by side to and spaced apart from the cantilever spring retention clips. Each of the cantilever spring retention clips may have a retention surface and the cantilever support portion with a support surface. When the anti-lock sensor ring is dismounted from a disc brake band, the plane defined by the retention surface and the plane defined by the support surface are facing each other in order to create opposing gripping elements.

  • Patent number: 11624417
    Abstract: A braking band of a disk brake disk has a first plate and a second plate arranged joined to each other by connecting elements. The first and second plates have first and second plate outer surfaces, opposite portions of the first and second outer surfaces forming opposite braking surfaces. The braking band has a plurality of attachment portions for connecting the braking band to a vehicle hub or a bell. Each attachment portion has a connection seat. The attachment portions are spaced by recesses. Each attachment portion has an attachment portion wall having opposite side wall portions, two bottom wall portions and an inner end wall portion, and opposite first and second attachment portion surfaces. Each recess extends radially beyond the connection seat. Each side wall portion is joined to the adjoining bottom wall portion by a cylindrical bottom arch avoiding edges. Each side wall portion is joined to the adjoining inner end wall portion by a cylindrical end arch avoiding edges.
