自動車運転装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014513334
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Disclosed is a vehicle driving apparatus in which brake and acceleration functions are combined with a single stick. The vehicle driving apparatus includes: a lever that moves to an acceleration position, an idle position, or a brake position as rotating forward and rearward about a shaft fixed to a vehicle body at a predetermined angle; a hand acceleration means that opens an engine throttle to cause a vehicle to be accelerated, when the lever moves to the acceleration position; a hand brake means that pushes a booster rod of a brake booster so that a brake operates to cause the vehicle to be stopped, when the lever moves to the brake position; a guide means that is installed on the left and right sides of the lever to prevent the lever from being shaken leftward and rightward; a hand brake locking means that allows the hand brake to be continuously applied; and a cruise control means that allows the lever to stay in the acceleration position even if the driver takes his hand off the lever when the lever is in the acceleration position. Accordingly, the lever manipulated by the hand operates independently of the existing brake or acceleration pedals so that the driver can freely select either to drive using their hand or foot according to a situation or his preference, making it possible to remarkably enhance driver convenience.
