Guide device for the brake caliper of a floating caliper disc brake

A disc brake arrangement for a motor vehicle braking system comprising a brake carrier, which has at least one bore defining a first longitudinal axis, and a guide pin, which is arranged in the bore and is configured to support the brake caliper slidably relative to the brake carrier, wherein the guide pin defines a second longitudinal axis,

• wherein the disc brake arrangement further comprises a protective bellows, which at least partially surrounds regions of the guide pin protruding from the bore,
• wherein the protective bellows has a guide portion, which is configured to guide the guide pin displaceably in such a way that the second longitudinal axis of the guide pin is offset relative to the first longitudinal axis of the bore;
• wherein the guide portion extends substantially about a third longitudinal axis;
• wherein the guide portion has a guide region that interacts with the guide pin and is formed at least in some sections with an asymmetrical cross section;
• wherein the third longitudinal axis of the guide portion substantially coincides with the first longitudinal axis of the bore.
