ABSTRACT:
A brake application mechanism for a disc brake, particularly a sliding-caliper disc brake having an application shaft which extends parallel to the plane of the brake disc, wherein on the side of the shaft (8) which faces the brake disc (2) the shaft is supported against a thrust piece (9) which is movable against the brake disc (2), support being via a circularly arcuate first contour (17) which is rotatably mounted in a suitable bearing seat (18), and on the side of the shaft which faces away from the brake disc, the shaft is supported against an element with respect to which the thrust piece (9) is movable, support being via a second contour (21) which is eccentric with respect to the first contour. The second contour has at least two circular arcs (I, II) with their centers (P1, P2) and radii (R1, R2) chosen so that when the application shaft is rotated the magnitude of any movement of the thrust piece (9) relative to the application shaft (8) in a direction parallel to the plane of the brake disc is minimized.
