A disc brake for a utility vehicle is provided. The brake caliper of the disk brake is configured to be mounted in an axially-displaceable manner on a stationary brake carrier by two fastening elements. The two fastening elements are plain bearings arranged in respective bores of the brake caliper, one as a locating bearing and the other as a floating bearing. The floating bearing includes a sliding bush made from a plastic, in particular an elastomer, and a guide rod configured to be connected to the brake carrier is mounted. The sliding bush is held on the guide rod secured against axial displacement between the guide rod and the inner wall of the respective brake caliper bore. The sliding bush is configured to carry a lubricant on its circumferentially outer surface and has sealing lips projects radially outward that bear against the inner wall of the respective bore.

A guide assembly for a disc brake and method of mounting. The guide assembly may have a guide pin that includes a mounting portion and a guiding portion. A retaining bore of a brake carrier may receive the guide pin and retain the mounting portion. The guiding portion may protrude from an inboard-side of the brake carrier and may slidably support a brake caliper.

A disc brake assembly includes an anchor bracket, a guide pin, a sliding mechanism, and a damping member. The anchor bracket may have at least one bore formed therein. The guide pin may be adapted to be disposed in the at least one bore and slidably support a brake caliper relative to the anchor bracket. The sliding mechanism may be adapted to be disposed in the at least one bore and to slidably support the guide pin in the at least one bore. The damping member may damp sliding motion of the guide pin relative to the anchor bracket.

A caliper guide assembly having a guide pin, a guide bore, a cap, and a sensor arrangement. The guide bore is arranged to receive the guide pin. The cap may be secured to an open end of the guide bore proximate a free end of the guide pin. The sensor arrangement may include a first sensor component that is configured to provide an output indicative of relative axial displacement between a first sensor component and a second sensor component.

A floating caliper may have a caliper body where the caliper body is movably supported in an axial direction on at least at one guide pin. The guide pin may have a pin sliding portion. The caliper body may have a pin seat, which slidingly accommodates a portion of the pin sliding portion. The floating caliper may also have a sealing arrangement between the pin seat and the guide pin. A sealing arrangement outer surface or a sealing arrangement inner surface may have an axial extension, which is smaller than a pin seat axial extension or the length of the pin sliding portion, respectively, creating, in at least one position of the floating caliper during the axial sliding thereof, at least one sealing arrangement channel between the sealing arrangement and the pin seat or the pin sliding portion.

Fastening element (1), in particular mounting bolt, comprising a fixing portion (10), an intermediate portion (20) and a fitting portion (30), wherein the fastening element (1) extends along a longitudinal axis (L), wherein the fixing portion (10) comprises fixing structures, in particular a thread, wherein the intermediate portion (20) is arranged in the direction of the longitudinal axis (L) between the fixing portion (10) and the fitting portion (30), wherein the fitting portion (30) is substantially rotationally symmetrical about the longitudinal axis (L), wherein the fitting portion (30) has an outer support surface (34), wherein the support surface (34) has a clearance fit, and wherein at least in the fitting portion (30) a lubrication groove (32) is provided.

A mounting for a guide pin of a disc brake and method of mounting. A mounting portion of a guide pin may have a first polygonal cross-sectional profile. A receiving portion of a brake carrier may receive the mounting portion and may have cross-sectional profile that is different than the first polygonal cross-sectional profile.

Disclosed herein a caliper brake includes a brake disc rotating with a wheel of a vehicle; an inner brake pad and an outer brake pad respectively disposed on opposite sides of the brake disc; a pressing member configured to press the inner brake pad against the brake disc; a caliper housing in which the pressing member is movable forward and backward; a caliper bridge connected to the caliper housing and configured to press the outer brake pad against the brake disc by a reaction force in response to operation of the pressing member; a carrier fixed to a body of the vehicle; and at least one guide rod fixed to the carrier and guiding sliding movement of the caliper housing and the caliper bridge with respect to the carrier.

A guide pin for a floating-type brake caliper of a disc brake where the brake caliper may have a caliper body and a bracket. The guide pin may be configured to be placed between the caliper body and the bracket. The guide pin is configured to connect to a guide sleeve and slide at least partially within the guide sleeve. The guide pin may have a first pin coupling portion. The guide pin may also have a pin sliding portion to guide the guide pin into a sliding housing formed in either the caliper body or the bracket. The guide pin may also have a second pin coupling portion. The first pin coupling portion is arranged between the second pin coupling portion and the pin sliding portion. The first pin coupling portion is threaded to form a threaded coupling between the guide pin and the guide sleeve.

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.
