A brake system for a vehicle is disclosed. The brake system includes a wheel hub, a brake disk, and a brake caliper. The wheel hub includes a hub and attachment posts. The hub defines a bore adapted to receive an axle of the vehicle. The attachment posts extend away from the hub adjacent to the bore. The attachment posts are singularly and integrally formed with the hub. The brake disk is disposed adjacent the wheel hub. The brake caliper includes a piston housing and a body. The piston housing is adapted to hold a piston. The piston housing defines mounting holes used to movably mount the brake caliper directly to the wheel hub at the attachment posts. The body is positioned radially outward of the brake disk. The piston housing and the body are integrally formed as a singular component.

A rear brake conversion assembly for all-terrain vehicles is provided. The rear brake conversion assembly may include a leg-and-foot shaped assembly bracket for operatively associating a dual piston caliber braking component with the rear wheel plate by way of a wheel bracket. The leg-and-foot shaped assembly bracket provides a first attachment hole at the hip portion, a second attachment hole at the knee portion, a third attachment hole at the heel portion, and a fourth attachment hole at a toe portion, wherein the leg portion and the foot portion of the leg-and-foot shaped assembly bracket is at an obtuse angle relative to each other.

The brake piston pushing tool is a mechanical device. The brake piston pushing tool comprises a worm drive and a brake mechanism. The brake mechanism is a mechanical device used to slow and stop the motion of a vehicle. The brake mechanism is a well-known and documented device. The brake mechanism further comprises a caliper housing, a piston, and an anvil. The anvil attaches to the caliper housing such that a space is formed between the caliper housing and the anvil. The piston installs in the caliper housing such that the piston slides into and out of the space formed between the caliper housing and the anvil. The worm drive is a mechanical device that pushes the piston into the caliper during maintenance activities on the brake mechanism.

A brake caliper for a vehicle disc brake including a pair of brake pads, and brake a disc positioned in between the brake pads is provided. The brake caliper includes a thrust piece that is configured to move at least one of the brake pads relative to the brake disc, an adjuster unit in threaded engagement with the thrust piece, and a spring unit operatively coupled to the adjuster unit and the thrust piece. The spring unit has a latching element and the adjuster unit has a corresponding latching interface, wherein the latching element is arranged to engage the latching interface when the adjuster unit is in threaded engagement with the thrust piece, and the spring unit further has a mounting element in engagement with the thrust piece to provide a resistance against a rotational movement the adjuster unit relative to the thrust piece.

An electric brake apparatus of a vehicle includes a caliper body formed with a cylinder section and a boost force support section disposed to face the cylinder section with a brake disc interposed therebetween; an internal motor installed in the cylinder section, and generating a rotational displacement by application of current; a push rod disposed coaxially with the internal motor; a ball-in-ramp disposed between the internal motor and the push rod, converting the rotation displacement of the internal motor into a linear displacement, and transferring the linear displacement to the push rod; a piston disposed in an open part of the cylinder section, pushed and moved by the push rod; a first friction pad coupled to the piston, and disposed on one side of the brake disc; and a second friction pad coupled to the boost force support section, and disposed on the other side of the brake disc.

The present disclosure relates to a brake calliper for a disc brake. The brake calliper comprises a supporting structure, a cover with a pin, and a fixing disc. The supporting structure has a bridge and at least one bridge finger which has a brake lining side, an outer side and a bore which is incorporated into the outer side and which runs from the outer side in the direction of the brake lining side. The cover has a pin protruding into the bore. The fixing disc has a disc edge which has an outer diameter D and which is positively held in the bore and with a disc center which has a through-opening, through which the pin protrudes. The disc center has a clamping region which is bulged relative to the disc edge in the direction of the brake lining side and which fixedly clamps the pin in the through-opening by a clamping edge. The disclosure also relates to such a fixing disc itself.

A piston boot has an annular fixing part that is formed on one end side of a stretchable part and abuts against an inner peripheral side of the cylinder. An outer peripheral surface of the annular fixing part is provided with a first region that abuts against an inner peripheral surface of the cylinder and a second region that is disposed closer to a bottom side of the cylinder than the first region in a piston axial direction. The outer diameter of the first region is larger than the inner diameter of the region of the inner peripheral surface of the cylinder that faces the second region.

A brake caliper device for a disc brake assembly with a brake disc has a brake caliper support to be arranged stationarily relative to a vehicle. A brake caliper for holding at least one brake pad is provided, wherein the brake caliper can slide relative to the brake caliper support in an axial direction. A seal device is provided that seals a gap formed between the brake caliper and the brake caliper support. The seal device extends in the axial direction. The seal device has a brush, a sealing lip, and/or a loose sealing material projecting away from the brake caliper support in a direction toward the oppositely positioned brake caliper and/or projecting away from the brake caliper in a direction toward the oppositely positioned brake caliper support.

There is provided a caliper for an opposed piston type disc brake including: an inner body including a pair of attachment boss portions; an outer body; and a pair of side bridges connecting, in the axial direction, end portions of the inner body on both outer sides in the circumferential direction and end portions of the outer body on both outer sides in the circumferential direction. At least one of the pair of side bridges includes a concave portion extending in the axial direction and opening to an outer surface of the side bridge, and a first beam portion and a second beam portion disposed so as to sandwich the concave portion from both sides, end portions of the respective first beam portion and the second beam portion on the inner side in the axial direction being connected to the attachment boss portions.

A brake caliper, in particular a sliding caliper, of a disc brake of a commercial vehicle includes a brake application portion, which extends around a holding space for holding at least one brake application device; a caliper back; two tension struts, which run substantially parallel and at a distance to one another and connect the brake application portion to the caliper back; a closure cover, which closes the holding space; and an interface for mounting a pivotable brake lever on the side of the brake application portion facing away from the closure cover. A mounting opening for inserting and removing brake pads is formed between the brake application portion, the caliper back and the tension struts. The ratio of the length of the brake application portion to the sum of the length of the brake application portion and the length of a tension strut is between 0.4 and 0.3.
