METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MOUNTING CALLIPERS AND VEHICLE

摘要

A method for fitting and fastening a brake yoke (1) for a brake disc on a shaft of a vehicle wheel, which brake yoke comprises two supporting arms (1 ') on opposite sides of a centreline (4) running substantially radially in relation to the disc brake's brake disc (3), each of which supporting arms has a fastening portion (5) serving as an interface (6) against the shaft and comprising holes (7) for fastening bolts. The method is particularly distinguished by the steps of - positively locking the brake yoke (1) to the shaft by a heel element (8) of the respective supporting arm (1 ') by fitting the heel elements in ramp configurations formed on the shaft for positioning the brake yoke substantially in a fastening position in which the brake yoke is held in both circumferential and radial directions in relation to said brake disc (3), and - preferably transferring braking torque from the brake yoke to the shaft via inter alia the heel elements. The invention also relates to a device for mounting a brake yoke and further relates to a vehicle.
