Title:
【発明の名称】調整可能な自動車ペダルシステム
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3035831
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A method of adjusting a control panel having an axis of pedal arm rotation which is capable of pivotably adjusting the control pedal relative to a reaction member, such as the eyelet of a cylinder pushrod for a brake pedal or a flexible cable in case of an accelerator pedal. The adjustment device allows the control pedal to be positioned to suit the needs of a particular driver. The control pedal can be pivotably attached to a frame in any conventional manner, such as with a pivot pin. The adjustment device is mounted alongside the control pedal and to the pushrod eyelet without the need of additional support hardware other than a device for acting on the control pedal. The adjustment device includes a rotatable member for causing pivotable movement of the pedal arm relative to the reaction member. The adjustment device is maintained a predetermined distance from the pivot of the control pedal arm by a spacing device, such as a link. The adjustment device also includes a rotatable driving device for rotating about its axis of rotation to produce a corresponding displacement of the control pedal arm. To comply with the requirements, the new Abstract of the Disclosure is presented as a separate sheet attached hereto.
