A brake carrier for a disc brake of a commercial vehicle has an attachment region for fixing on a vehicle axis and at least one pad shaft for receiving and supporting at least one brake pad. The pad shaft is formed by way of an inlet-side carrier horn, an outlet-side carrier horn and a bridge which connects the inlet-side carrier horn and the outlet-side carrier horn. Regions of the bridge which adjoin the carrier horns form bearing surfaces for radially supporting the at least one brake pad. The respective guide contours for guiding the brake pad into a push-in position are arranged to the side of the pad shaft on a side surface of the carrier horns, in which push-in position the brake pad can be pushed axially with respect to the vehicle axle into the pad shaft between the carrier horns.

A disc brake and a brake lining for a commercial vehicle are provided. The disc brake includes a brake caliper on a stationary brake carrier and straddling a brake disc. The brake carrier has at least one brake lining space, in particular two brake lining spaces, each of which is delimited by lateral brake carrier lugs and accommodates a brake lining. At least one respective dimensionally stable blocking element is provided as a counter bearing against the insertion direction of the brake pads. The blocking elements are supported on the brake pads and/or or the brake carrier and are held on the brake carrier and/or on the brake pads.

A brake assembly having a retraction spring. The retraction spring may be mounted to a first brake pad module and a second brake pad module. The retraction spring may have an anti-rotation feature that inhibits rotation of the retraction spring. The anti-rotation feature may engage the first brake pad module.

The present invention relates to a pad spring for a vehicle brake. To this end, according to an aspect of the present invention, there are provided pad springs for a vehicle brake which are installed in a pad carrier to apply elastic forces in directions in which a pad plate including a brake pad is spaced apart from a disc when an operation of a vehicle brake is released, wherein the pad carrier includes a leading side support frame, a trailing side support frame, an inner side support beam, and an outer side support beam, wherein the support beams connect the support frames, and the pad spring is provided on each of the inner side support beam and the outer side support beam, wherein at least one among a width, a length, and a thickness of a retraction bar provided on one of the pad springs is different from that provided on each of the remaining pad springs so that an elastic force is applied to the pad plate.

A brake pad arrangement for a disc brake of a vehicle braking system includes at least one brake pad carrier plate and at least one friction lining is attached to the at least one brake pad carrier plate, wherein the brake pad carrier plate has at least one fastening section which is configured for fastening the brake pad restoring device, wherein the fastening section has at least one bearing surface for the brake pad restoring device, wherein the at least one bearing surface extends obliquely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the brake pad carrier plate.

A friction pad mounted on a disk brake includes a back plate, and a lining attached to the back plate and configured to frictionally contact a disk. A spring member, configured to bias the friction pad toward a disk rotationally exiting side, is provided to an ear portion of the back plate. The spring member includes an attachment portion attached to the back plate, an extension portion extending from an end portion of the attachment portion, and an abutment portion folded back from the extension portion and extending in a direction toward the disk. The abutment portion is configured to receive a reaction force from a torque reception surface by abutting against the torque reception surface at a position on an opposite side of the ear portion from the disk when the ear portion and the torque reception surface of a mount member abut against each other.

A disc brake (1) includes an electromechanical actuator (2), in particular an electromechanical parking brake actuator. The electromechanical actuator (2) includes a driveshaft (6), an electric motor (7) arranged on the driveshaft (6), a cam disc (5) arranged on an output shaft (49), and a transmission (8) arranged on the driveshaft (6) configured for transmitting the torque of the electric motor (7) to a force-transmission device (3). A magnetic brake (20) is disposed on the driveshaft (6) between the electric motor (7) and the cam disc (5) for arresting the driveshaft (6).

A retraction spring assembly having: a) pad clip having a lock channel and one or more assembly locks; b) a retraction spring affixed to the pad clip with two or more lock arms residing within the lock channel and a plurality of energy storage portions; and first and second retraction arms; wherein the one or more assembly locks are configured to receive the two or more lock arms and bias the retraction spring into an assembly position; during the brake apply, movement of the first and second retraction arm is toward each other and results in energy being stored in the body portion; and during the brake release, the energy stored in the body portion is released and transferred to both the first and second retraction arm to result in movement of the first retraction arm and the second retraction arm away from each other.

A floor, wall, or ceiling panel and to a method for producing same. The panel has a base made of a wood material and an upper veneer. The base and the veneer are hot-pressed together while incorporating a resin layer. During the pressing process, pores, cracks, and/or gaps in the veneer are filled with resin. In particular, the pressing process is carried out such that the veneer is saturated with resin, and the resin can be seen on the surface of the veneer after the pressing process. The adhesion of the veneer to the base and the smoothing of the veneer are thus carried out in one operation.

A disc brake for utility vehicles includes a brake disc, a first brake lining on a first side of the brake disc and a second brake lining on a second side of the brake disc opposite the first side. A spreading device is also provided which generates a force that moves the first and the second brake lining away from one another.
