Abstract

A disc brake for a motor vehicle, wherein the disc brake comprises a housing, a brake disc which can be rotated relative to the housing, at least one friction lining, and at least one actuating device which is configured for bringing about a relative movement between the brake disc and the friction lining, with the result that the friction lining can be brought into contact with the brake disc, wherein the actuating device has at least one actuating piston which is guided displaceably in the housing in a hydraulically sealing manner, wherein the actuating piston can be displaced in the housing hydraulically and via a mechanical actuator. In the disc brake, it is provided that the actuating piston is coupled to the mechanical actuator via an elastically deformable driving arrangement, wherein, as a consequence of a relative displacement between the actuating piston and the actuator, the driving arrangement provides a restoring movement in accordance with its elastic deformation.
