Appeal 2006-2793
Application 10/829,536
Appellant invented a disc brake provided with two brake shoes, an
actuator device for actuating at least one of the brake shoes, a force
transducer disposed in a force transmission path between the actuator device
and the at least one of the brake shoes, and a force limiting arrangement for
limiting the maximum force acting upon the force transducer. The three
independent claims involved in this appeal read as follows:
1. A disc brake comprising:
a brake disc having two opposite sides;
two brake shoes, which for generating
a clamping force are pressable against
both sides of the brake disc;
an actuator device for actuating at least one
of the brake shoes; and
at least one force transducer disposed in a
first force transmission path between the
actuator device and at least one of the brake
shoes, wherein a maximum component of
force acting upon the force transducer upon
generating of the clamping force is limited.
26. A disc brake comprising:
a brake disc;
two brake shoes pressable against the brake
disc for generating a clamping force;
an actuator for actuating at least one of the
brake shoes;
