Title:
PEDAL DEVICE FOR MOTOR VEHICLES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005026861
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a pedal device (1) for motor vehicles, comprising a position indicator (28, 30) for the pedal (6), which generates an electric signal depending on the pedal position, and a spring device in the form of at least one laminated spring (18) which is elastically deformed when the pedal is actuated. A deformation or force sensor (28) for generating a deformation or force signal is disposed in the deformation area (20) and an evaluation electronics generates (30) the actuator signal in response thereto. According to the invention, the laminated spring (18) carries the evaluation electronics (30) whose connections (32) are connected to a section of the laminated spring (18) in an electrically conducting manner. At least one electrical contact (34) is formed onto said section and represents the interface for the connection of electrical components or conducting elements.
