First Claim
1. A brake mounting (1) for determining a measurement variable for an acting brake force (FB) or frictional force on a disk brake (311, 312) of a motor vehicle of the type having a caliper acting on friction linings which frictionally engage a brake disc and which can be attached (A-B) to the motor vehicle (10), the brake mounting (1) comprising at least two lining guide rails (11a, 11b) disposed across the brake disk (8) and on which the friction linings (7, 9) on both sides of the brake disk (8) are guided so as to be movable to a limited extent in the axial z axis direction (z) of the brake disk (8), a sensor device (38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44), by means of which an x axis displacement (Δ
- x) of at least one of the lining guide rails, caused by a brake force effect in a direction (x) perpendicular to the axial z axis direction (z) of the brake disk (8) is measured, the sensor device having a first sensor element (35, 135, 135′
) and a second (36, 136, 136′
) sensor element, whose relative movement is measured, the first sensor element (35, 135, 135′
) and the second sensor element (36, 136, 136′
) are disposed on the brake mounting (1).

Abstract
A location-determining device in a motor vehicle having at least one receiver device for receiving position signals and time signals for a multiplicity of satellites assigned to a global navigation system and a location-calculating module for calculating location information based on received position data and time data. The location-determining device has at least one receiver device structurally integrated into the housing of an optical sensor unit, wherein the housing is arranged in a passenger compartment in a region of an upper edge of a windscreen, and wherein the housing does not have more than a single connection to a vehicle data bus and not more than a single connection to a vehicle power supply.
