Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, if the upper surface of the heel rest area on which the heel of the pedal operating foot rests is inclined at a certain angle as described above, the driver's heel rests on the above-mentioned heel rest area. When the operation pedal is stepped on in the state, and the driving state is changed from the driving state in which the amount of depression is finely adjusted to the emergency pedal operation state in which the amount of depression of the operation pedal is increased, etc., the heel of the pedal operation foot will move forward and cause the above inclination The upper surface of the heel rest area composed of the surface is strongly pressed, etc., so that the driver is likely to feel uncomfortable, so there is room for improvement in the pedal operability

no. 1 approach

[0055] Figure 1 to Figure 7 The floor structure of the vehicle concerning the 1st Embodiment of this invention is shown. In the compartment of the vehicle, a driver's seat 1 is provided above a bottom plate 9 forming the bottom thereof, and a front-rear position adjustment mechanism 2 for adjusting the front-rear position of the seat cushion 1a by sliding displacement and adjusting the above-mentioned seat cushion is provided. The inclination angle adjustment mechanism 3 for the inclination angle of 1a. An accelerator pedal 4 , a brake pedal 5 , and a clutch pedal 6 which are stepped on by a driver seated on the driver's seat 1 are provided at the front portion of the vehicle compartment.

[0056] The vehicle body of the above-mentioned vehicle is provided with: a dash panel 7 separating the engine room and the vehicle compartment; an upper curved plate 8 extending from the lower end of the dash panel 7 to the rear side of the vehicle body in a tilted state with the front hi...

no. 2 approach

[0130] In the above-mentioned first embodiment, the heel rest area on the bottom plate 9 resting on the heel portion of the pedal operating foot of the accelerator pedal 4 and the heel of the pedal operating foot of the brake pedal 5 are respectively placed. The heel resting area on the base plate 9 on which the foot rests is provided with an example of an inclined floor portion 15 inclined at the same angle α1, α2 to be high and low, but it can also be used as Figure 20 and Figure 21 As in the second embodiment shown, the first part 82 of the inclined floor part 82 located in the area on the accelerator pedal side and the second part 83 of the inclined floor part located in the area on the brake pedal side made of the heel pad material 13a are connected to each other. The tilt angle is set to different values.

[0131] That is, in the above-mentioned second embodiment, the first portion 82 of the inclined floor portion located in the accelerator pedal side region is divide...

no. 3 approach

[0140] In addition, it is also possible to use Figure 25 As in the third embodiment shown, the above-mentioned inclined floor portion is provided in the heel rest area on the bottom plate 9 where the heel portion of the pedal operation foot rests when the driver steps on the operation pedal composed of the brake pedal 5 and the like. In front of the second part 83 etc., the structure in which the interference avoidance part 85 is provided with the upper surface formed as the inclined surface which slopes low at the front and high at the rear. In the case where the interference avoidance portion 85 whose upper surface is formed as an inclined surface with a low front and a high rear is provided in this way, when the driver switches from a normal driving state in which the accelerator pedal 4 is operated to an emergency braking state in which the brake pedal 5 is strongly depressed, etc. When the driver's heel is strongly pressed against the floor surface, it can more effective...

Abstract

The invention relates to a floor panel structure of vehicle. In a vehicle in which a driver's seat (1) is provided on a floor panel and an operational pedal, such as a brake pedal (5), is provided in front of the driver's seat, a slant floor portion (15) is provided in an area of the floor panel (9) where a heel of a driver pressing the operational pedal is placed. This slant floor portion slants with a specified slant degree in such a manner that its front portion is positioned at a higher level than its rear portion. An interference avoidance portion which is comprised of a horizontal face portion (16) is provided in front of the slant floor portion. This interference avoidance portion has a slant degree which is smaller than the specified slant degree of the slant floor portion so as to avoid interference with the heel of the driver's foot. The floor panel structure can effectively improve the operability of the pedal with a simple structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a floor structure of a vehicle in which a driver's seat is provided above a floor forming a bottom of a vehicle cabin, and an operation pedal is provided in front of the driver's seat. Background technique [0002] In the past, for example, Japanese Patent Laying-Open Publication No. 2005-145405 (Patent Document 1) discloses a driving posture adjusting device for a vehicle having the following structure: a seat position adjusting device for adjusting the position of the seat seating surface, and an adjusting device for adjusting the seat surface. The floor position adjustment device for the up and down position of the floor (movable floor) on which the occupant's feet are rested by the pedal operation, and the driving posture adjustment operation device for operating the above two devices are also provided, so that the difference in the physique of the occupant can be eliminated. In addition, even if the adjustment amou...
