Floating saddle disk brake, with a floating saddle in a sliding mounting, has an inductive coil to register the saddle movement for evaluation as a continuous measurement of the brake pad wear

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The floating saddle disk brake (1) has a floating saddle (3) in a sliding mounting (5,8) at a fixed component (2) of the brake assembly. A brake pad (7) grips around both sides of the brake disk (6). An inductive unit (10) with a coil (12) and a magnetic core (5) establishes the sliding movement of the saddle to be evaluated remotely as a measure of the brake pad wear. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# The assembly is a floating saddle disk brake. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The system gives a reliable and continuous assessment of the brake pad wear under all conditions. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of the disk brake assembly. 1 : floating saddle disk brake 2 : fixed component 3 : floating saddle 5 : coil core 6 : brake disk 7 : brake pad 8 : saddle mounting 10 : inductive unit 12 : coil.
