20110226566 | Disk Brake and Brake Pad Arrangement Therefor - The invention relates to a disk brake for a motor vehicle brake system having a frame-type housing, at least two brake pad arrangements, which are accommodated in the frame-type housing and between which a brake disk that is rotatable about an axis of rotation may be accommodated, and at least two guide bolts, which are mounted on the housing and on which at least one of the brake pad arrangements is guided with play in an axially displaceable manner. To avoid undesirable noises in this disk brake it is provided that on the brake pad arrangement guided on the guide bolts at least one spring means is mounted, which biases said brake pad arrangement relative to the guide bolts into a position corresponding to a tilting movement that results during braking of the brake disk from a braking torque acting on the brake pad arrangement. | 09-22-2011 |
20110253491 | Disk Brake Assembly - The invention relates to a disk brake assembly comprising a brake anchor plate for fastening to a vehicle as well as a brake pad assembly, wherein the brake anchor plate has at least one location opening for receiving a guide element that has a first portion for guiding and supporting the brake pad assembly and a second portion for connecting to the brake anchor plate. For simplified manufacture while retaining a permanently reliable mode of operation, it is provided that the second portion has a textured surface, by which the guide element may be press-fitted at least partially into the location opening. | 10-20-2011 |
20130180810 | Disc Brake for a Motor Vehicle and Brake Pad Assembly Therefor - A disc brake for a motor vehicle includes a spring arrangement mounted on at least one mounting tongue of a brake pad carrier. The spring arrangement provides a predetermined spring travel, which is dimensioned such that a movement of the brake pad carrier for actuating the brake is permitted without brake pad wear compensation and such that when using up the predetermined spring travel the brake pad arrangement contacts the spring arrangement for brake pad wear compensation and moves the latter within a brake pad arrangement guide in order to compensate brake pad wear. | 07-18-2013 |
20140110198 | Bolt Guide Device for a Floating Caliper Disc Brake and Corresponding Floating Caliper Disc Brake - A bolt guiding device for a floating caliper disc brake, having at least one guide bolt that is supported in a brake carrier and mounted on a brake caliper, wherein the brake caliper is movably guided over the guide bolt in the axial direction thereof. The bolt guiding device comprises a slide bush, wherein one surface of the inner circumferential surface and outer circumferential surface acts as a retaining surface on which the slide bush is retained, and wherein the other surface of the inner circumferential surface and outer circumferential surface acts as a sliding surface on which the slide bush slides. For this purpose, the slide bush has, facing the sliding surface, at least one guiding surface on each side of the centre of the slide bush and at least one intermediate surface extending in the circumferential direction on each side of the centre of the slide bush, wherein the diameter of the at least one guiding surface is dimensioned in such a way that said guiding surface is in close contact with the sliding surface, and wherein the diameter of the intermediate surface is dimensioned in such a way that said intermediate surface is provided in direct contact with or with a slight radial spacing from the sliding surface. | 04-24-2014 |
20140151165 | Method for Producing A Brake Carrier for a Disc Brake and Brake Carrier for a Disc Brake - In a method for producing a brake carrier for a disc brake of a vehicle braking system, wherein the brake carrier has at least one guiding shaft for guiding a brake lining in a guiding direction in relation to a receiving region for a brake disc, first a brake carrier blank is produced in a casting step and then the brake carrier blank is reworked. In the casting step, the brake carrier blank forms two converging tapers, facing the receiving region, in the region in which the guiding shaft is formed and, during the reworking, material is removed in the region of the tapers to produce the at least one guiding shaft, with the effect that the receiving region for the brake disc has a predetermined clear width transversely in relation to the guiding direction. | 06-05-2014 |
20140262637 | Guide Pin For Disc Brake Assembly and Disc Brake Assembly Including Such A Guide Pin - A disc brake assembly having a guide pin disposed in a bore of an anchor bracket such that a guide pin axis is offset relative to a bore axis whereby there is provided at least one defined point of contact between only a portion of the guide pin and a portion of an inner surface of the bore. The guide pin includes a groove formed therein, the groove defines a groove axis which is offset relative to the guide pin axis, and a resilient member is disposed in the groove which is operative to bias the guide pin in the bore such that the guide pin axis is offset relative to bore axis to provide the at least one defined point of contact between only a portion of the guide pin and a portion of the inner surface of the bore. | 09-18-2014 |
20160131209 | Brake Lining Assembly for a Disk Brake Comprising a Noise-Reducing Device - A brake lining arrangement for a vehicle brake with a friction lining and a lining backing plate, having a receiving portion arranged in its lateral edge region for receiving a separate damping element, which laterally grasps the lining backing plate, wherein the damping element has a contact portion for contacting a portion of a brake calliper corresponding with the contact portion, and the damping element is adapted to be deformable or/and displaceable at least in sections upon a contacting. | 05-12-2016 |
