Abstract

See full text

A brake actuating device is furnished with a device for slack readjustment of a brake, in particular of a vehicle brake. Defects in the area of the readjustment device can result in an erroneous and defective brake behavior. The invention device furnishes a continuous control of the brake release gap and the brake lining wear. The motion of the slack readjustment device (5, 7) is used for generating a measurement distance (n) which is scanned by a signal generator (27, 31) for feeding a signal to an evaluation device and for indicating the readjustment situation. The evaluation device serves for a continuous surveillance and monitoring of the brake release gap and of the brake lining wear in a vehicle or in a diagnostic center, where the evaluation device can be connected to the vehicle.
