A spreader unit for a drum brake is provided with a readjustment device which ensures that the clearance remains substantially constant even in the case of wear on the brake linings. The readjustment device is arranged between actuating pistons and changes the spacing of the actuating pistons in at least one readjustment step when an actuating travel of the first and second brake shoe holders has exceeded a travel setpoint value. A thermally actuable blocking device mechanically prevents the execution of the readjustment step by the readjustment device at a temperature above a temperature setpoint value

A multi-disk brake (1) for a motor vehicle has two multi-disk mechanisms (7, 8) and an actuation device (9) for brake actuation and/or brake release of the multi-disk mechanisms (7, 8), and an electric drive (16) for translational actuation (spreading) of the actuation device, such as, in particular, the ramp unit (9). During a spreading operation, the multi-disk mechanisms (7, 8) are pretensioned in a metered manner by the actuation device and produce a desired frictional engagement, and a correspondingly reversed activation of the actuating mechanism enables a correspondingly metered brake release. By means of the electric drive (16), the action of the multi-disk brake (1) can be metered overall in a particularly precise, sensitive and compensated manner in modern vehicle topology, including all peripheral brake components and systems, including recuperation.
