Patent attributes
A disc brake (10) is described, comprising a brake disc (12) and two brake shoes (20), which are pressable against both sides of the brake disc (12) and which in relation to a peripheral force (C′) generated upon application of the brake shoes (20) against the brake disc (12) are supported against a vehicle-fixed carrier (14). The disc brake (10) moreover comprises at least one device (34) for measuring and/or converting the peripheral force (C′), which device is disposed in a force transmission chain between the brake shoe (20) and the carrier (14). A force transmission member in the form of e.g. a swivel element (30) is disposed between the brake shoe (20) and the device (34) for measuring and/or converting the peripheral force (C′) and is movable under guidance parallel to the brake disc (12).
