Patent ID: 7866447

Claim:
An electromechanically or pneumatically operated disk brake, comprising: a brake caliper, a brake disk engageable over by the brake caliper at least in sections at an outer brake disk circumference, the brake disk and the brake caliper being moveable relative to one another, with the brake disk axially displaceable and rotationally fixed on an axle-mounted component that slidably mounts the brake disk, an application device at least partially inserted into the brake caliper to provide an application movement between brake shoes and the brake disk, at least one adjusting device for setting air play between the brake shoes and the brake disk, first pressure elements disposed between the axle-mounted component and the brake disk to force the brake disk and the axle-mounted component axially apart under an elastic preload when the disk brake is not applied, a stop, against which the brake disk bears under said elastic preload provided by the first pressure elements when the disk brake is not applied, and at least one second pressure element providing a spring force biasing the stop against the axle-mounted component, wherein the stop is disposed on the axle-mounted component, wherein at least one of the pressure elements includes a contact piece, which bears against the brake disk, and a flexible spring force producing element interposed between the contact piece and the axle-mounted component, wherein the stop is flexibly arranged on the axle-mounted component in a displacement direction of the brake disk, and wherein an effective direction of said spring force biasing the stop against the axle-mounted component counteracts an effective direction of the flexible pressure element.
