Abstract: The present invention relates to a disk brake in which a connection is configured between a brake lining retainer and a pressure plate of a push rod in order to move the push rod by means of the brake lining retainer so that it slides axially in a brake caliper

Abstract: The invention relates to a brake gear for a disc brake serving to transfer a force to a brake pad that acts upon a brake disc. The brake gear is accommodated in a brake caliper of the disc brake and comprises both a pressing element, which interacts with the brake caliper, as well as a rod. The pressing element is mounted in the housing of the brake caliper with the aid of the rod in such a manner that it is parallel to the rotation axis of the brake disc.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a disc brake having a housing, a clamping device, a push rod, and a self-activating adjustment device, whereby the adjustment device includes a first subassembly and a second subassembly. According to the invention the adjustment device includes an assembling joint, which makes possible the transmission of a rotary motion from the first subassembly to the second subassembly, whereby the assembling joint allows an axial relative motion between the first subassembly and the second subassembly, whereby the assembling joint permits an axial relative motion between the first subassembly and the second subassembly of the adjustment device. According to a particular embodiment of the invention, a misalignment of the push rod inside a place, which lies parallel to the brake disc, can occur with respect to the housing, without resulting in jamming of the cylindrical element with respect to the push rod and housing.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a connection between at least one brake disc and a hub or the like of a disc brake. The brake disc(s) is received slidable and non-rotatable on the hub. Each brake disc is furnished with plates on an inner periphery, which plates have a length in the axial direction of the hub exceeding the thickness of the brake disc.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a brake mechanism of a disc brake received in a caliper and a method for controlling the force amplification for the brake mechanism. The brake mechanism comprises a lever actuated by a brake actuator. The lever is acting on a cross bar by means of an intermediate part. The lever and the intermediate part have a line of contact moving along a circular arc during an application stroke of the brake mechanism. The cross bar of the brake mechanism is closely guided and is only moveable in the thrust direction and in the tangential direction of the brake disc. The force amplification of the brake mechanism is adapted to the force characteristics of the brake actuator.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a connection between at least one brake disc (1) and a hub (2) or the like of a disc brake. The brake disc(s) (1) is received slidable and non-rotatable on the hub (2). Each brake disc (1) is furnished with plates (3) on an inner periphery, which plates (3) have a length in the axial direction of the hub (2) exceeding the thickness of the brake disc (1).

Abstract: The present invention concerns a disc brake having a brake mechanism. The disc brake comprises a caliper (16) reaching over a brake disc and having a cavity for receiving the brake mechanism. The brake mechanism comprises a bearing bracket (30) received from the inside in an opening (17) of the caliper (16) in the side wall furthest from the brake disc. The brake mechanism comprises an adjuster mechanism (23) an adjustment shaft (40) and a reset shaft (41). Means (24) are provided for transferring movement between the adjuster and reset shafts (40, 41). The adjuster mechanism is actuated by a lever pin (43) on a lever (31) of the brake mechanism and is received in the bearing bracket (30) at assembly.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a brake caliper and a brake mechanism for a disc brake received in the caliper. The brake mechanism comprises a brake lever, a cross bar, one or more thrust plates and a cover. The caliper is of an open design having an opening in the wall furthest from the brake disc.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a brake caliper and a method for assembly of a brake mechanism for a disc brake in said caliper. The caliper surrounds the brake disc on both sides and has a cavity for receiving the brake mechanism. The caliper is of an open design having an opening in the wall furthest from the brake disc. The inside of the caliper may be machined through the opening, before the brake mechanism is assembled in the caliper.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a brake mechanism for a brake disc. The brake mechanism comprises a brake lever, a cross bar, one or more thrust plates and a closing plate. The brake mechanism is of a modular form comprising two or more units.

Abstract: The present invention provides an absorbent article, selected from the group consisting of a sanitary napkin, a panty liner, and an interlabial menstruation protection device, wherein the article is suitable for administrating a pharmaceutical substance. In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical substance is suitable for treating, mitigating and/or preventing the premenstrual syndrome. The article comprises an absorbent body and has a generally elongated shape. The article has a first surface which is intended to face the wearer, and it has a second surface which is intended to face away from the wearer. The first surface, which is intended to face the wearer, is at least partially covered with a transdermal therapeutic system containing a compound suitable for treating and/or preventing the pre-menstrual syndrome, whereby said compound is transdermally administrated to the wearer when said article is worn.
