Abstract

A disk brake is proposed for a vehicle, preferably a commercial vehicle, having a brake caliper, a brake application device, an adjusting device, a brake lever, and a mechanism which couples the brake lever to the drive element. The brake caliper engages over a brake disk and brake linings on both sides of the brake disk. The brake application device can be actuated by way of a force element, preferably a pneumatic force element. The adjusting device compensates for the brake lining and brake disk wear. The adjusting device is arranged on an adjusting axis which extends in the brake application direction, and is provided with a drive element which can be rotated about the adjusting axis.
