<p>Disc brake (1) for land vehicles, comprising: a brake disc (2) rotating with a wheel axle (3); a brake caliper (4) which is mounted in a movable manner in a nonrotating wheel-axle housing arranged about said wheel axle (3); and two brake linings (5), one on each side of the brake disc (2), said brake linings (5) being designed in such a way that, when acted upon by an activating mechanism (8), they are caused to bear against the sides (9) of the brake disc (2) for transmitting a braking torque to the wheel axle (3). The invention is characterized in particular by the fact that: said brake caliper (4) comprises two brake-lining holders (10, 11) which are axially displaceable relative to one another and relative to the wheel-axle housing (3); and the brake-lining holders (10, 11) each have at least one actuation surface (12, 13, 14, 15) for engagement with said activating mechanism (8), as a result of which the brake-lining holders (10, 11) are displaced toward each other upon activation.</p> |
