A system and method are provided for retaining brake pads in disc brakes, such as air-operated disc brakes utilized on commercial vehicles, and for installing and removing brake pads, without the need to employ brake pad retaining devices which radially over-top the brake pads. A preferred embodiment includes a retaining element, preferably a spring steel clip, having protrusions which face in opposite directions to engage corresponding slots in a brake pad lateral edge and in a brake pad carrier brake pad-facing surface. When installed in a radially-inward direction, the brake pad carrier side protrusion engages the brake pad carrier slot, and cooperates with the brake pad lateral side protrusion to resist brake pad movement in the radially-outward direction. The brake pad carrier side protrusion may be manually pressed toward the brake pad to disengage the protrusion from the carrier slot to permit withdrawal of the brake paid from the carrier.

One embodiment discloses a vehicle disc brake including: a disc rotor; a pair of friction pads disposed on both side portions of a disc rotor; and a pads returning spring suspended over radially outer sides of the friction pads and over an outer circumferential side of the disc rotor and configured to pull the friction pads away from the disc rotor when brakes are released and hydraulic pressure is removed. The pads returning spring has a base portion extending in an axial direction of the disc rotor, first spring portions extending from both end portions of the base portion, and engagement portions provided individually at distal ends of the first spring portions so as to engage with the friction pads. Further, a middle portion of the base portion is depressed in a direction in which the first spring portions extend as a second spring portion.

A partially lined disk brake includes a brake anchor plate, mountable on which are two brake linings, which are arranged at a distance from one another and which between them are capable of receiving a brake disk capable of rotating about an axis of rotation, wherein an application movement serves to bring the two brake linings into engagement with a friction surface of the brake disk, including a brake caliper, which is arranged on the brake anchor plate and which engages at least partially over the brake linings and the brake disk, and which in the direction of movement of the brake linings can be displaced by an actuating device in relation to the brake anchor plate, wherein the actuating device produces the application movement of the brake linings, and having at least one spring element, which moves the brake linings away from one another again after an application movement.

The invention relates to a disc brake, particularly for a goods vehicle, comprising a brake caliper, which has a brake disc that can be brought into active contact with brake shoes and which can be fixed to a brake support in a manner that enables it to be axially displaced relative to the brake disc. The inventive disc brake also comprises a closure plate, which closes the brake caliper on the side facing the brake disc, and comprises a removable retainer, which is fixed relative to the brake caliper and on which springs acting upon the outer edges of the brake shoes are supported. The disc brake is designed in such a manner that a fixing device is provided in the closure plate, and the facing end of the retainer lies inside the fixing device while being held in a direction of loading.

The present invention relates to a spot-type disc brake with a brake housing straddling a brake disc, with at least one brake pad that is arranged in the brake housing so as to be slidable in the actuating direction and cooperates tribologically with the brake disc upon brake application, with at least one actuating device arranged in the brake housing to apply an actuating force to the brake pad, and with a spring assembly for the active adjustment of a clearance between the brake pad and the brake disc after brake application. To simplify the configuration of the spring assembly, the spring assembly comprises exactly one spring which is secured detachably in the spot-type disc brake and is supported on the brake pad and on the brake housing. A spring of this type is arranged advantageously symmetrically within the brake housing to prevent an undesirable inclined positioning of the brake pads.

This invention relates to an improved pad retraction spring (30) adapted for use in a disc brake assembly. The disc brake assembly includes an anchor bracket (12) adapted to be secured to a vehicle component, a brake caliper (108) adapted to be secured to the anchor bracket, a pair of brake shoes (18, 20) carried by the disc brake assembly and adapted to be disposed on opposite axial sides of an associated brake rotor (106), and an actuation device for selectively moving the brake shoes into frictional engagement with the rotor. The anchor bracket includes a pair of outwardly extending arms (14, 16) and at least one of the arms has an opening (60) formed therethrough. The pad retraction spring is carried by the disc brake assembly and is operative to move the brake shoes from engagement with the rotor when the brake shoes are in a non-braking position. The pad retraction spring includes a central mounting portion (32) and a pair of outermost spring arms (38, 38′). The central mounting portion extends through the opening of the arm and engages a portion of the anchor bracket to thereby secure and locate the pad retraction spring on the anchor bracket in a predetermined position. The outermost spring arms of the pad retraction spring engage a portion of the pair of brake shoes.

A clamp device having a body made of a pair of half bodies connected and unified with a fixation member. One of friction plate units is elastically pushed by a first spring in a direction parting from a disc and in a rotating direction of the disc simultaneously, and the other of the friction plate units is elastically pushed by a second spring in a direction parting from the disc and in a reverse direction of the rotating direction simultaneously.

The invention relates to a spot-type disc brake for automotive vehicle with a floating caliper (2) displaceably borne on a vehicle-fixed brake support (1) and bridging a brake disc as well as brake pads (7,8) arranged on both sides of the brake disc, where the brake pads (7,8) are axially displaceably guided in the brake support (1). To achieve a particularly radially rattle-free fixation of the brake pads (7,8) as well as the floating caliper (2) on the brake support (1), it is provided to support the floating caliper (2) on its, with respect to the vehicle, outside on the brake support (1) through the outer brake pad (7). To this end, the outer brake pad (7) is radially locked on the brake support (1), and the outer brake pad (7) itself on the corresponding housing leg (13).
