Brake Dust Particle Filter and Disc Brake Assembly Comprising a Brake Dust Particle Filter

A brake dust particle filter for a disc brake assembly with a brake disc and a brake caliper, wherein the brake dust particle filter is configured for catching particles produced when braking, the brake dust particle filter comprising:

• a ring segment-shaped housing comprising a housing interior and configured to accommodate, in a mounted state thereof, at least partially the brake disc in the housing interior;
• wherein the ring segment-shaped housing comprises housing walls, including a first housing sidewall and a second housing sidewall axially spaced apart from each other, wherein the housing walls further include a housing peripheral wall extending radially outwardly in a circumferential direction of the ring segment-shaped housing and arranged between the first and second housing sidewalls in the mounted state;
• wherein the ring segment-shaped housing comprises a first housing part comprising the first housing sidewall and/or the second housing sidewall and configured such that the first housing sidewall and/or the second housing sidewall are positionable axially displaced relative to the brake disc;
• wherein the ring segment-shaped housing comprises a second housing part comprising at least the housing peripheral wall;
• wherein the first housing part and the second housing part are connected to each other by a pivot mechanism comprising a pivot axis extending parallel to an axis of rotation of the brake disc in the mounted state and configured such that the housing peripheral wall is pivotable relative to the first housing part with the first housing sidewall and/or the second housing sidewall remaining stationary.
