Abstract

See full text

The invention refers to a disc brake with self-servo effect with a caliper overlapping a brake disc, comprising a pressure element provided with a brake pad for engagement with the brake disc, a support element, at least one bearing element, by means of which the pressure element is supported against the support element, and means for adjusting a control force acting on the pressure element substantially transverse to the brake disc, whereby means for determining the contact forces of the at least one bearing element in the support element and means for determining the friction force from said determined contact forces are provided. In addition, the present invention refers to a method for determining the friction force on the brake disc of such a disc brake in that the contact forces of the at least one bearing element in the support element, and the friction force at the brake disc from said determined contact forces are determined.
