Method for producing a carrier body with a damper mass for modifying the vibration for a brake lining of a disk brake

Abstract

In order to improve a method for producing a carrier body for a friction lining of a disk brake in such a way that the rigid connection between a friction lining carrier plate of the carrier body and a first damper mass of the carrier body is more robust, it is proposed to exert a force which is directed perpendicularly onto the first pin-shaped projection, by way of pressing, until the first pin-shaped projection is upset to such an extent that it forms a positively locking connection with an inner wall of the first hole in regions inside the first hole.
