ABSTRACT:
Abraded dust arising during operation of a disc brake and having the effect of contaminating the environment may be collected and stored in a container of the disc brake according to the invention. This container should be large enough to enable it to accumulate as much abraded dust as is generated in the course of the lifetime of a pair of brake shoes. The container preferably includes a housing embracing one part of the brake disc, and a filter disposed between the housing and the brake disc. The filter is constructed of several layers of the same type or of different types and includes an arrangement adapted to guidedly introduce into the filter the air stream carrying the dust abraded off the brake components during the operation of the brake. In a filter made of two layers, these layers may be held to advantage fastened in their place by a flow guide grating or lattice adapted to guide the air stream with abraded dust in its flow into the filter.
