ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a disc brake (10) having two brake shoes (12, 14), which for generating a clamping force (A, A′) are pressable against both sides of a brake disc (16), and having an actuator device (26) for actuating at least one of the brake shoes (12, 14). The disc brake (10) has a detection device, which detects the coming-into-abutment of at least one of the brake shoes (12, 14) against the brake disc (16) and during the coming-into-abutment adopts a characteristic state. This discrete state may be a switching state electrically evaluable for open- or closed-loop control purposes and may be used for open- or closed-loop control of a brake system comprising the disc brake (10).
