Disclosed herein a brake pad for a disk brake. The brake pad for a disk brake pressing a disc rotated together with a wheel includes a pad plate pressed by a piston moving forward and backward by a braking hydraulic pressure; a friction pad attached to one side surface of the pad plate and in contact with the disk; and a shim member integrally formed with the pad plate to protrude from the other side surface of the pad plate.

The disclosure illustrates and describes a guide element which extends from a first end via a guide portion to a second end. The guide element has a fixing portion arranged at the second end and extending along a first extent direction, which runs transversely with respect to the axial direction, to a free end. The guide element has a connecting portion between the guide portion and the fixing portion. The connecting portion extends along a second extent direction, which runs transversely with respect to the axial direction and transversely with respect to the second extent direction, and extends along the axial direction from a first plane, which runs perpendicular to the axial direction, to a second plane, which runs perpendicular to the axial direction. The fixing portion is spaced apart in an axial direction both from the first plane and from the second plane. The disclosure furthermore relates to a corresponding brake anchor and to a corresponding disk brake system.

The application relates to a brake pad assembly (2) for a disk brake system. Further, the application relates to a disk brake system. The proposed brake pad assembly (2) comprises a back plate (4) having a front side for facing a brake disk (1) of the disk brake system and a back side (6). The brake pad assembly (2) further comprises a friction layer (3) arranged at the front side of the back plate (4) for contacting a friction surface the brake disk (1). In addition, the brake pad assembly (2) comprises a shim (5, 8, 12). The shim (5, 8, 12) comprises a copper layer (7, 11, 13, 17) for reducing squeal noises. The shim (5, 8, 12) is arranged on the back side (6) of the back plate (4).

To provide a rear wheel braking device for a motorcycle that can reduce an unsprung mass and the number of pieces of components on the rear wheel side of a shaft drive type motorcycle. In a rear wheel braking device for a motorcycle transmitting a drive force of a power unit of a motorcycle to a rear wheel through a drive shaft that extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction, the drive shaft includes a propeller shaft that is connected to a rear end of an output shaft through a universal joint, the output shaft protruding to the vehicle body rear side from a case member of the power unit. A brake disk is attached to the output shaft, the brake disk being braked by a rear wheel brake caliper. The rear wheel brake caliper is fixed to a bracket that is arranged in the case member, and is disposed on the vehicle body upper side of the brake disk.

A brake system that includes a brake caliper comprising an inboard side and an outboard side, the inboard side of the brake caliper includes one or more brake pistons and the outboard side of the brake caliper comprises one or more brake pistons, and a brake pad comprising a first pad section and a second pad section. During a service brake apply, both of the first pad section and the second pad section are moved against a braking surface to create a clamping force. During a parking brake apply, only one of the first pad section and the second pad section is moved against the braking surface to create a clamping force. The first pad section comprises a friction material having a coefficient of friction that is different than a coefficient of friction of the second pad section.
