Abstract

An electromechanically actuatable self-boosting disk brake in which a friction brake lining is guided displaceably with a guide whose angle to the brake disk is adjustable via an electric motor to attain brake reinforcement. The angle of the guide is adjusted independently of an actuating device with which the friction brake lining is pressed against the brake disk.
