ABSTRACT:
In a disc brake having, a thrust piece which extends parallel to the plane of the brake rotor and which presses a brake pad against the rotor in the direction of the axis of the rotor, an adjusting mechanism is provided which includes a torque-dependent one-way coupling for obtaining automatic, wear-compensating adjustment of the gap between the brake pad and the brake rotor. The torque-dependent one-way coupling is coupled to the thrust piece in such a way that it moves along with the thrust piece in the direction of the axis of the rotor.
