    • A device 1 for detecting a braking force, applied by a brake caliper 10 on a hub holder 20, upon a braking event, and due to the braking event, is described. The device is adapted to be mounted at a fastening interface (i, ii) between the brake caliper 10 and the hub holder or brake caliper support 20, by tightening means 60 which apply a tightening force. The device 1 comprises a low-friction body 2, a caliper- hub-holder element 3, a sensor element 4, and an electrical interface 5. The low-friction body 2, in the form of a washer or discoidal plate, is adapted to be put into close contact the brake caliper 10 and the hub holder 20, at the fixing interface (i, ii). The caliper- hub-holder connection element 3 is connected and integral with the low-friction body, and is adapted to be mechanically connected, when the detection device 1 is mounted, to both the brake caliper 10 and the hub holder 20, to determine a mechanical connection through which the braking force is at least partially discharged. The caliper- hub-holder connection element 3 is susceptible of deformation so that the strains and/or stresses present in the caliper- hub-holder connection element 3 depend on the overall force acting on the caliper- hub-holder connection element 3. The low-friction body 2 is configured to decouple the tightening forces from the braking forces to minimize the effect of the tightening forces on the detection device 1 so that the deformations and/or strains of the caliper- hub-holder connection element 3 are representative of the aforesaid force derived from the braking event. The sensor element 4 is connected to the caliper- hub-holder connection element 3 and is configured to detect a strain present in the caliper- hub-holder connection element 3 and to generate at least one electrical signal S indicative of the detected strain and representative of the braking force. The electrical interface 5 is connected to the aforesaid sensor element 4 for conducting and making available said at least one generated electrical signal S. A corresponding method and system for determining a braking torque are also described.
