Retaining spring device for a partial lining disk brake housing

Abstract

A holding spring arrangement for a spot-type disc brake, in particular an integrated disc brake for automotive vehicles, wherein a brake carrier of the disc brake is integrated into the steering knuckle of the vehicle, and the holding spring includes at least one spring arm which extends generally in a circumferential direction and clamps the housing of the disc brake and the brake carrier to one another in a radial direction. To largely prevent tilting of the outward brake pad, according to the present invention, a holding element is provided for mounting the housing holding spring on the brake pad, which holding element is particularly made of sheet metal and supported on a part of the brake housing.
