Abstract

The invention relates to a brake device for vehicles, in particular for utility vehicles, with a mounting device attachable to a stationary part of the vehicle, whereby the mounting device, when viewed along the brake axis, consists of two end sections and a first connection section in-between. According to the invention it is provided that the first connection section has an opening for at least partial acceptance of a radial lug of the stationary part.

Claims (35)

1. A brake device for utility vehicles, with a mounting device attachable to a stationary part of the vehicle, comprising:

the mounting device, when viewed along the brake axis (A), includes a first end section, a second end section, and a first connection section in-between the first end section and the second end section,

wherein the first connection section includes an opening at least partially receiving a radial lug of the stationary part when mounted.

2. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the mounting device is attached to the stationary part via an adapter.

3. The brake device of claim 2 , wherein the adapter includes a rest and support area for the second end section.

4. The brake device of claim 2 , wherein the adapter includes a rest and support area for the first end section.

5. The brake device of claim 2 , wherein the adapter includes a rest and support area for the first and second end section.

6. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the first end section includes a first guiding device for a brake lining.

7. The brake device of claim 6 , wherein the first guiding device includes a guide pin.

8. The brake device of claim 6 , wherein the second guiding device includes a guide pin.

9. The brake device of claim 6 , wherein the first and the second guiding device include a guide pin.

10. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the opening is a passage.

11. The brake device of claim 10 , wherein the radial lug, when assembled, does not extend beyond a radial outer boundary of the opening.

12. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the first connection section is on a first side of the brake disc, when assembled.

13. The brake device of claim 12 , wherein the first side is a force application side of the brake device.

14. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the mounting devices includes a second connection section between the two end sections.

15. The brake device of claim 14 , wherein the second connection section is on a rim side of the brake device.

16. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the second end section includes a first guiding device and a second guiding device for a brake lining, and wherein the first guiding device and the second guiding device together with the first connection section embrace an embrasure.

17. The brake device of claim 16 , wherein the embrasure is U-shaped.

18. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the stationary part includes a rest and support area for the first and second end sections.

19. The brake device of claim 18 , further comprising rest and support area(s) that are shifted in axial direction with respect to the radial lug.

20. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the opening in top view is elongated.

21. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the opening in top view is rectangular.

22. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the first connection section is arch-shaped when viewed along the brake axis.

23. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the second end section includes a second guiding device for a brake lining.

24. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the mounting device is a brake carrier.

25. A brake carrier for a brake device of claim 1 .

26. A brake caliper for a brake device of claim 1 .

27. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the first end section includes a first guiding device for a pressure plate.

28. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the first end section includes a first guiding device for a brake lining and a pressure plate.

29. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the second end section includes a second guiding device for a pressure plate.

30. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the second end section includes a second guiding device for a brake lining and a pressure plate.

31. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the stationary part includes a rest and support area for the first end section.

32. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the stationary part includes a rest and support area for the second end section.

33. The brake device of claim 1 , wherein the mounting device is a brake calliper.
