PNEUMATICALLY ACTUABLE DISC BRAKE

摘要

A pneumatically actuable disc brake is provided, with a brake caliper, at least one brake pad on the application side and at least one brake pad on the reaction side, and a brake disc, at least one brake pad which is on the application side and is moveable both in a direction parallel to an axis of rotation of the brake disc and parallel to the friction surface of the brake disc, an actuating device with a brake cylinder, which is acted upon at least with compressed air, as a braking force generator which acts upon an applicator for applying the brake pad, and at least one self-reinforcing device with ramps, wherein the ramps each have a degressive ramp curve (22) which is produced according to the formula h = G -1 (u). In this case, h=the curve profile of the ramp and u=the peripheral travel.
