Embodiment Construction

[0035] figure 1 A brake caliper unit according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown. The brake caliper unit is suitable for a disc brake of a vehicle, in particular a rail vehicle. The disc brake comprises at least two opposing brake pad retainers 40 (only one of which is shown) between which a brake disc (not shown) of the disc brake can be inserted. The brake caliper unit includes a caliper lever arm structure 110 which is designed to transmit a contact force to the brake lining holding device 40 when the disc brake is actuated. figure 1 Only one side of the lever arm structure is shown. The pressing force acts inwardly in the plane of the drawing on the brake lining retaining device 40 . Furthermore, the brake caliper unit comprises a rotatable suspension 420 and at least one pretensioning unit 130 to which the brake lining retaining device 40 is fastened, the pretensioning unit being designed to make the rotatable suspension 420 Preload against the comp...

Abstract

The invention relates to a brake caliper unit for a disk brake of a vehicle. The vehicle can be a rail vehicle and comprises at least two brake pad holders (40) arranged opposite each other, between which a brake disk of the disk brake can be inserted. The brake caliper unit comprises a caliper lever arm structure (110, 120) designed to transmit a brake application force to the brake pad holders (40) when the disk brake is actuated; rotatable suspensions (420) to which the brake pad holders (40) are respectively attached; and at least one prestressing unit (130) designed to prestress at leastone of the rotatable suspensions (420) against the brake application force.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a brake caliper unit and in particular to an expanded pretensioned brake caliper unit for a rail vehicle. Background technique [0002] The brake caliper unit holds the brake linings (friction linings) on both sides of the brake disc via the brake lining retainer (lining carrier) and transmits the braking torque to the vehicle's frame or on the bogie. The force necessary for the braking effect is exerted by the brake cylinder and is transmitted, for example via a brake lever arm, to the brake lining holding device. For an optimum braking effect, the brake disc should be oriented parallel to the brake lining, so that the brake disc and the brake lining come into contact over the entire surface during the braking process. [0003] However, since the bogie (or frame) is typically not rigidly connected to the axle, but is held elastically up to a certain extent, relative torsion can occur between the brake lining and the brake di...
