Abstract
The invention relates to a method for testing the functional reliability of parts subject to wear and/or functional parts, whose position can change, or components thereof in a pneumatic or electromechanically actuated disc brake, in particular for a commercial vehicle. According to said method, reflectable signals are emitted by a transmitter to the functional part that is to be tested, the reflected signals are received by the receiver and the actual and desired values are compared and evaluated.

16. A method for testing functional reliability of pneumatically or electromechanically operable disc brake parts, which parts are at least one of subject to wear and functional, and whose position is changeable, the method comprising the acts of:
-
transmitting reflectable signals from a transmitter to the disc brake part to be tested;
receiving reflected signals from the part to be tested by a receiver;
comparing determined actual values based on the received reflected signals with predefined values; and
analyzing results of the comparison as part of the testing. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A system for testing functional reliability of pneumatically or electromechanically operable disc brake parts, which parts are at least one of subject to wear and functional, and whose position is changeable, the system comprising:
-
a transmitter that emits the reflectable signals;
a receiver that receives the reflected signals; and
wherein the transmitter and receiver are arranged on one of a disc brake and a component adjacent to the disc brake, said transmitter and receiver being operatively coupled with an electronic analyzing system. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
