Abstract
The aim of the invention is to ensure a reliable lift of both brake pads of a floating-caliper brake (1) after releasing the brake. This is achieved in that a lifting part (20) is hinged to the brake caliper (2) at a hinge point (21), and the lifting part (20) is supported on the support structure (7) at a contact point (23) at least partly at releasing the floating-caliper brake (1), wherein a lift drive (22) is provided which rotates the lifting part (20) about the hinge point (21) such that a support for the lifting part (20) is produced on the contact point (23), whereby the hinge point (21) and the brake caliper (2) are moved.
