ADJUSTMENT APPARATUS FOR A SELF-ENERGIZING BRAKING DEVICE, AND SELF-ENERGIZING BRAKING DEVICE

摘要

An adjustment apparatus (300) for a self-energizing braking device, and a self-energizing braking device comprising the adjustment apparatus. The adjustment apparatus (300) comprises a setting device (332) for adjusting a brake head (100) from the venting position thereof into the braking position thereof by means of a setting force. The adjustment apparatus also has a releasable holding device (400) with which the brake head (100) can be fixed in the braking position thereof. Furthermore, the adjustment apparatus comprises a tensioning device (331) which builds up a braking force on a braking member (112), which acts perpendicularly to an active surface of a braking element (119), when the brake head (100) takes up the braking position thereof, and an adjustment component (113) which is coupled to the braking member (112) acts on the tensioning device via the braking member (112) under the action of the braking element (119). In this case, the setting device (332), holding device (400) and tensioning device (331) act on a transmission element (330) acting on the brake head (100).
