Abstract
An arrangement for operating a brake of a vehicle has at least one controllable electric motor and at least one conversion device for converting the rotational movement of the electric motor into a translational movement of one or several brake element(s) operatively connected with the conversion device. The conversion device has two sloped disks which are arranged coaxially with respect to the electric motor, and whose first sloped disk can be caused to carry out a rotating movement by way of a step-down gear driven by the electric motor and whose second sloped disk, by way of roller bodies arranged between the two sloped disks, is axially displaceable by a rotating movement of the first sloped disk.
