FIXED-CALIPER DISC BRAKE

摘要

The invention relates to a pneumatically and/or electromechanically actuated disc brake for utility vehicles, comprising a brake caliper (1), which extends over a brake disc (3), an application device (13) located in the brake caliper for applying brake pads (5, 7) on both sides of the brake disc (3) in the direction of the latter, in addition to at least one adjusting system located in the brake caliper for compensating wear and tear on the brake pad and/or disc by adjusting the distance between the brake pad (7) and the brake disc (3). Said disc brake is characterised in that one respective application device (13, 15) for applying the brake pads (5, 7) is positioned on each side of the brake disc (3), said application devices (13, 15) on both sides of the brake disc (3) being interconnected by a coupling device, in such a way that they can be displaced exclusively in a synchronous manner.
