Claim 0:
1. A brake device for braking a traveling body of an elevator installation on a rail, the rail having a first braking profile and a second braking profile, the brake device comprising:
a forcing element having a first forcing working face adapted to act on the first braking profile and a second forcing working face adapted to act on the second braking profile;
a counter-support having a first counter-support working face adapted to act on the first braking profile and a second counter-support working face adapted to act on the second braking profile;
wherein the first forcing working face and the first counter-support working face are arranged opposite one another at the first braking profile and the second forcing working face and the second counter-support working face are arranged opposite one another at the second braking profile;
wherein the forcing element is adapted to be spread to bring the first forcing working face into contact with the first braking profile and the second forcing working face into contact with the second braking profile; and
wherein the first forcing working face and the second forcing working face are arranged in an intermediate region between the first braking profile and the second braking profile, and the first counter-support working face and the second counter-support working face are each arranged on a side of the first braking profile and the second braking profile respectively that faces away from the intermediate region.
