A brake assembly having a brake carrier, a caliper, first and second brake pads, a pad retraction spring, and a first stop surface. The pad retraction spring urges the first and second brake pads in a direction away from a rotor plane. A first supporting portion of the pad retraction spring is configured to abut the first stop surface to inhibit the pad retraction spring from entering a partially enclosed volume.

A disk brake includes a caliper, and a driving unit disposed in a housing attached to the caliper. An attachment portion used to attach the housing to the caliper and a connector used to supply power to the electric motor are protrudingly provided at the housing. The attachment portion is formed in such a manner that a distance between a center of the disk rotor and a portion of the attachment portion located farthest away from the center of the disk rotor in a radial direction is longer than a distance between the center of the disk rotor and a portion of the connector located farthest away from the center of the disk rotor in the radial direction, and a width of the connector in an axial direction of the disk rotor falls within a range of a width of the attachment portion in the axial direction.

A hoist is provided with a braking mechanism comprising: a motor cover that is provided with an outer wall which is provided such that the inner diameter of an inner peripheral portion thereof increases with proximity to one side in the axial direction from the other side; a drum member that is provided with an outer peripheral portion which is located radially inward of the inner peripheral portion of the outer wall and which faces the inner peripheral portion; and a brake shoe that is mounted on the outer peripheral portion. The inner peripheral portion is provided with a blast-treated portion which is blast-treated upon impact by media which contains large amounts of sharp edges among media which contains large amounts of sharp edges and media which contains large amounts of non-sharp edges.

A brake pad of a vehicle brake, in particular of a disc brake of a commercial vehicle, includes a brake pad carrier having a support surface, a friction lining attached to the support surface, a recess extending into the support surface in an axial direction, and a wear indication device arranged at least partially inside the recess. The brake pad carrier includes a clamping member coupled to the wear indication device that rests against an inner wall of the recess. The clamping member is configured to apply a clamping force on the wear indication device in a radial direction. The wear indication device and the clamping member are inserted axially into the recess.

In this disc brake, a pair of brake pads has recesses in the outer peripheral surfaces thereof. A pad spring has a first pressing section extending axially and provided to a base, the first pressing section pressing, toward the trailing side, a first section to be pressed which is provided on the trailing-side side surface of side surfaces which form the recess of a brake padand which are raised outward in the radial direction of a rotor. Also, the pad spring has a second pressing section extending axially and provided to the base, the second pressing sectionpressing radially inward on the bottom surface of the recess of each of the pair of brake pads, the bottom surface being a second section to be pressed which is provided on an outer peripheral section.

A disc brake for a motor vehicle brake system and a restoring spring arranged therein, the disc brake comprising the following: a brake support which has at least one receiving region; a brake lining arrangement which has a brake lining support and a brake lining which is attached to the brake lining support and which can be brought into interaction with a brake disc in order to achieve a braking effect, wherein the brake lining arrangement is received in the at least one receiving region in a guided manner via a guiding portion formed on the brake lining support; and at least one restoring spring which engages the brake lining arrangement and biases the brake lining arrangement under elastic deformation into a starting position that does not produce a braking effect. The at least one restoring spring can be plastically deformed in order to compensate for brake lining wear. To improve the wear compensation by means of the restoring spring, rests against the brake support via a base portion and has at least one limb which is connected to the base portion via a connecting region and which is arranged at an angle relative to the base portion, the angle changing under the effect of plastic deformation as the brake lining wear increases.
