Abstract
Abstract On a brake support (12) engaging over a brake disk (10) a piston (34) is supported and on the other side a floating caliper (14) is supported for axial displacement. In both cases slide guides (40) are provided for the supporting and each have a guide body (42) having a groove (46) parallel to the axis (A) of the brake disk (10) and a threaded pin (48) which extends transversely of the axial center plane (B) of the brake and engages into the associated groove (46). The slide guides (40) are surrounded in each case by a resilient sealing sleeve (54) which is protected by a heat shield (66) arranged between it and the brake disk (10). Associated with the threaded pins (48) are anti-rotation locks for securing the pins against turning and which comprise mounting members (56) secured to the brake support (12). The mounting members (56) carry at the same time the heat shields (66).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
284 words
Spot-type disk brake comprising a brake support (12) which engages over a brake disk (10), a floating caliper (14) which on a first side of the brake disk (10) comprises an actuator (36) with a piston (34), a first brake pad (16) which is arranged on the first side of the brake disk (10) and actuable by the piston (34), a second brake pad (18) which is arranged on the second side of the brake disk (10) and is actuable by displacement of the floating caliper (14), and slide guides (40) for supporting the piston (34) on the brake support (12) on the first side of the brake disk (10) and for supporting the floating caliper (14) on the brake support (12) on the second side of the brake disk (10), the slide guides (40) being formed in each case by a guide body (42) comprising a groove (46) at least approximately parallel to the axis (A) of the brake disk (10), a threaded pin (48) which extends transversely of the axial centre plane (B) of the brake and engages into the groove (46) and a sealing sleeve (54) which protects the parts of the guide body (42) and threaded pin (48) co-operating with each other from soiling and is protected by a heat shield (66) arranged between it and the brake disk (10), characterized in that there is associated with at least one of the threaded pins (48) an anti-rotation lock securing the pin against turning and which comprises a mounting member (56) secured to the brake support (12), and the heat shield (66) provided for protecting the sealing sleeve (54) of said threaded pin (48) is carried by the mounting member (56).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
284 words
Spot-type disk brake comprising a brake support (12) which engages over a brake disk (10), a floating caliper (14) which on a first side of the brake disk (10) comprises an actuator (36) with a piston (34), a first brake pad (16) which is arranged on the first side of the brake disk (10) and actuable by the piston (34), a second brake pad (18) which is arranged on the second side of the brake disk (10) and is actuable by displacement of the floating caliper (14), and slide guides (40) for supporting the piston (34) on the brake support (12) on the first side of the brake disk (10) and for supporting the floating caliper (14) on the brake support (12) on the second side of the brake disk (10), the slide guides (40) being formed in each case by a guide body (42) comprising a groove (46) at least approximately parallel to the axis (A) of the brake disk (10), a threaded pin (48) which extends transversely of the axial centre plane (B) of the brake and engages into the groove (46) and a sealing sleeve (54) which protects the parts of the guide body (42) and threaded pin (48) co-operating with each other from soiling and is protected by a heat shield (66) arranged between it and the brake disk (10), characterized in that there is associated with at least one of the threaded pins (48) an anti-rotation lock securing the pin against turning and which comprises a mounting member (56) secured to the brake support (12), and the heat shield (66) provided for protecting the sealing sleeve (54) of said threaded pin (48) is carried by the mounting member (56).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
42 words
Spot-type disk brake according to claim 1, characterized in that the mounting member (56) comprises a recess (60) which is fitted onto a polygonal head (50) of the associated threaded pin (48) and is thereby deformed complementarily to the polygonal head (50).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
42 words
Spot-type disk brake according to claim 2, characterized in that the recess (60) is formed in a pot-shaped depression (58) of the mounting member (56) which is pressed into a widening (62) of a threaded bore receiving the associated threaded pin (48).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
39 words
Spot-type disk brake according to claim 1, characterized in that the mounting member (56) is angled and bears on an end face (57) and on a side face (63) of the brake support (12) facing the brake disk (10).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
51 words
Spot-type disk brake according to any one of claims 1 to 4, characterized in that a common anti-rotation lock is associated with two threaded pins (48) on either side of the brake disk (10) and comprises a pair of mounting members (56) engaging over the brake disk (10) in bridge-like manner.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
77 words
Spot-type disk brake according to claim 5 in which on each side of the brake disk (10) two slide guides (40) are arranged for the piston (34) and the floating caliper (14) respectively, characterized in that all the slide guides (40) each have a threaded pin (48) and that two pairs of mounting members (56) are provided, of which each pair connects a pair of threaded pins (48) together and carries a pair of heat shields (66).
