Disk brake of a motor vehicle and brake pad

A disc brake of a motor vehicle, comprising:

• a brake caliper configured to straddle a brake disc;
• a brake carrier configured to be fixed to the vehicle, and
• at least one brake lining configured to be guided on the brake carrier, the at least one brake lining having a lining carrier plate and a friction lining on the lining carrier plate,
• wherein
• the brake carrier has carrier lugs arranged to support the lining carrier plate of the brake lining at an entry side and an exit side of the brake carrier,
• the entry-side carrier lug of the brake carrier and a corresponding entry-side support surface of the lining carrier plate are configured to engage into one another,
• the exit-side carrier lug is lower than the entry-side carrier lug,
• the brake lining is supported on the exit-side carrier lug at a highest support point (A) with respect to a Y axis of the disc brake relative to a brake disc axis of rotation, the highest support point (A) being located a spacing distance below a force action line (FRxges) corresponding to a total friction force acting on the brake lining,
• the entry-side carrier lug is higher than a point of intersection of the force action line (FRxges) with the entry-side carrier lug,
• a support surface of the lining carrier plate adjacent to the entry-side carrier lug of the brake carrier has an offset configured to engage into an undercut on the entry-side carrier lug,
• the undercut extends as a projection in a main direction of rotation of the brake disc and is configured to be engaged under by the lining carrier plate at the entry side such that the brake lining cannot be removed without rotation radially outward along the Y axis from the brake carrier,
• the undercut is engaged under by the lining carrier plate only at the entry side, and
• the disc brake is configured such that installation of the brake lining in the brake carrier requires at least one of a pivoting movement and a combined pivoting and radial movement.
