Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A brake disc, in particular for a motor vehicle, includes a base disc of a first material and a wear-reducing coating of a second material. The first material is a lightweight metal and the second material is an oxide layer.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A braking device for a motor vehicle, comprising: a brake disc configured to be connected to a wheel and including a brake caliper, the brake caliper assigned to the brake disc and carrying at least one actuable braking element, the brake disc further including a base disc including a first material that is a lightweight metal, and a wear-reducing coating including a second material that is an oxide layer; and at least one heat conducting element configured to contact the base disc at a location spaced apart from the wear-reducing coating. 2. The braking device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein: the at least one heat conducting element is configured to be brought into direct contact with the brake disc and arranged on the brake caliper. 3. The braking device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one heat conducting element is a contact brush. 4. The braking device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one heat conducting element is a rotatably mounted contact wheel. 5. The braking device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least one heat conducting element is thermally connected to a heat sink. 6. The braking device brake disc as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising: a support body on which the base disc is mounted. 7. The braking device as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the base disc and/or the support body includes a phase change material. 8. The braking device brake disc as claimed in claim 7 , wherein: the base disc and/or the support body includes at least one chamber; and the phase change material is arranged in the at least one chamber. 9. The braking disc as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lightweight metal is aluminum. 10. The braking device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lightweight metal is titanium or magnesium. 11. The braking device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising: a support body on which the first material is disposed, wherein the support body is plastic. 12. The brake device according to claim 1 , wherein the brake disc is connected to the wheel. 13. The brake device according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one heat conducting element is mounted in direct contact with the brake disc. 14. A method for producing a braking device, comprising: forming a base disc comprised of lightweight metal; producing an oxide layer on a base element by hard anodizing or by plasma electrolytic oxidation; and positioning at least one heat conducting element so as to contact the base disc at a location spaced apart from the wear-reducing coating. 15. The method as claimed in claim 14 , further comprising: manufacturing the base disc from titanium or aluminum. 16. The method as claimed in claim 14 , further comprising: mounting the base disc on a support body and/or producing the base disc as a sheet-metal part. 17. A braking device for a motor vehicle, comprising: a brake disc configured to be connected to a wheel and including a brake caliper, the brake caliper assigned to the brake disc and carrying at least one actuable braking element, the brake disc further including a base disc including a first material that is a lightweight metal, and a wear-reducing coating including a second material that is an oxide layer; and a rotatably mounted contact wheel configured to conduct heat away from the brake disc by direct contact with the brake disc, and arranged on the brake caliper. 18. The braking device as claimed in claim 17 , further comprising: a support body on which the first material is disposed, wherein the support body is plastic. 19. The braking device as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the base disc and/or the support body includes a phase change material. 20. The braking device as claimed in claim 19 , wherein: the base disc and/or the support body includes at least one chamber; and the phase change material is arranged in the at least one chamber.
