    Abstract: A brake device (102), in particular a utility vehicle disc brake, has a brake disc (106), at least one brake pad (104, 104′), a transmission member (114) coupled to the brake pad (104, 104′) for pressing the brake pad (104, 104′) against the brake disc (106), a drive for generating a drive variable, a non-linear mechanism (110) operatively connected to the drive and the transmission member (114) for transmission of the drive variable to the transmission member (114), and an adjusting unit (120) for adjusting a clearance (108) between the transmission member (114) and the brake disc (106). The device includes a brake pad wear sensor for detecting the degree of wear of the brake pad (104, 104′) and a control unit, with a signal-carrying connection to the sensor to vary the clearance (108) as a function of the wear of the brake pad (104, 104′) determined by the sensor.

    Abstract: A caliper assembly (100) of a disc brake caliper, of the type with a modified braking action, comprising a caliper body (1) suitable to arrange astride of a brake disc, at least one first pad (8) being slidably received in at least one first seat (101) and so as to position itself between a first vehicle side elongated portion (5) and a first braking surface of the brake disk to abut, with a first pad plane (128) thereof, against said first braking surface (3) and to exert a braking action on the brake disc when pressed by the thrust means upon demand for a first friction action exerted by the first pad friction material against said first braking surface (3) causing a braking action, said assembly (100) further comprising a first insert (106) in a separate body from said caliper body (1) and in a separate body to said first pad (8) and particular in a separate body to said first pad plate (102), said first insert (106) comprises a balance wheel body (119) hinged to the caliper body (1) and oscillating in relation to the caliper body (1) so as to change, in an adjustable manner avoiding replacement of the insert, the angle between the plate support surface (107) of said insert (106) and said plane (104) defined by the braking surface (3) or said pad plane (128).

    Abstract: A multi-disk brake assembly includes a stator disk that is non-rotatable, a rotatable rotor disk arranged adjacently and coaxially with the stator disk, and an axial retention device. The rotor disk and the stator disk are axially moveable between an engaged position during braking operation and a disengaged position during a released mode of operation. The axial retention device is axially moveable and supports at least one of the disks. The axial retention device includes a set of axially translatable pins or bolts that are pushed by the disks during the braking operation and maintain a predetermined space between the disks during the released mode of operation. The predetermined space and position of the disks is maintained when the brake assembly is subject to forces due to vehicle acceleration or cornering.

    Abstract: A caliper brake apparatus includes a caliper main body that is supported on a vehicle body, a brake lining that advances/retreats relative to the caliper main body and can apply a frictional force by slidingly contacting a disc, a guide plate that supports the brake lining, an anchor pin that supports the guide plate on the caliper main body such that it can freely advance/retreat, a piston that advances/retreats relative to the caliper main body and can press against the brake lining via the guide plate, a diaphragm that abuts a rear surface of the piston and defines a pressure chamber within the caliper main body and elastically deforms due to pressure of compressed air within the pressure chamber so as to move the piston, and a piston plate that supports the piston on the anchor pin such that the piston can freely slide.

    Abstract: A one-nut slack adjuster with a nut axially disposed having clutch surfaces and on non-self-locking engagement on a spindle coaxially positioned within a tube moving axially to apply brakes has a spring biased thrust bearing held forwardly on the nut in the brake application direction disposed to engage a fixed position control member and when the nut is moved axially forwardly a predetermined desired slack distance thereby to bias the nut backwardly. A second trust bearing on this nut is placed forward of the control member to engage it at a distance from rest less than the clutch separation distance.In a double acting embodiment a further trust bearing spring biased between the nut and tube in a position forward of the control member holds the nut in a forward direction in clutch engagement.A further feature is a barrel spring arrangement foreshortening the assembly by a sleeve converting two coaxially disposed spring sections in series.

    Abstract: A brake device for a work vehicle includes a brake unit including a brake disc plate and a piston having a slide portion slidably supported by an axle housing and a pressure portion for pressing the brake disc plate. A slack adjuster mechanism is disposed on the axially opposite side of the brake disc plate with respect to the piston while being disposed further on an inner peripheral side than the slide portion of the piston. The slack adjuster mechanism maintains a clearance between the piston and the brake disc plate at a predetermined clearance by mechanically adjusting a non-actuated position of the piston.
