Abstract:
A heat shield element for a brake caliper of a disc brake, capable of providing complete radial and axial protection for the brake caliper, which is arranged straddling a disc brake disc and having a vehicle-side elongated portion and an opposite wheel-side elongated portion connected to each other by at least one caliper bridge. The element has a heat shield element body having at least two opposite snap engagement tongues adapted to snap-engage a portion of the brake caliper to interpose the heat shield element body between the brake caliper and the disc brake disc and support the heat shield element engaged with the brake caliper.

Claim (Index 12):
The heat shield element according to  claim 11 , wherein brake caliper resting elements as spacers, or spacers are comprised, suitable for resting on the brake caliper to create an air space between said heat shield element and said brake caliper; and/or wherein\n said spacers have a hemispherical shape in order to obtain an abutment between the heat shield element and the brake caliper having a limited contact area, preferably point-like and limit heat transfer between the heat shield element and the brake caliper; and/or wherein said spacers are limited in number to two or four for the arched back, and/or one or two for the at least one or the set of the side shield portions, so as to limit the contact areas between the heat shield element and the brake caliper; and/or wherein said spacers are obtained by molding of the sheet heat shield element body forming bulges suitable for projecting towards the brake caliper.
