Arrangement for a
disc brake (1), comprising one or more
brake pads (3a, 3b) and a
brake disc (2), wherein the at least one
brake pad (3a, 3b) has a pad carrier plate (4a, 4b) and a pad body (5a, 5b), wherein the at least one
brake pad (3a, 3b) is configured and connected to a
compressed air source such that
compressed air can be forced through it onto the brake disc (2) in order to release it from the brake disc (2) when the
disc brake is released during / after braking, wherein the at least one
brake pad (3a, 3b) has at least one first opening (7a, 7b) or several such openings through which
compressed air is directed onto the brake disc (2) when the
disc brake (1) is released, and wherein the at least one opening (7a, 7b) is designed as a channel (8a, 8b, 12a) which is defined by the pad carrier plate (4a, 4b) and the pad body (5a, 5b) extends through and is connected by a hose ora
pipe section is formed which is placed as a separate component on or in the
brake pad (3a, 3b), wherein the separate component which forms the channel (8a, 8b, 12a) is made of a material which wears down together with the pad body (5a, 5b) during braking, characterized in that the channel (12a) widens in the direction of application of the brake pad (3a, 3b) in the pad body (5a, 5b) to a cavity (13) which, in conjunction with the brake disc (2) and the pressurization of the channel (12a) or the cavity (13) with compressed air, becomes a chamber of an aerostatic
air bearing.
