Pedal mechanism for vehicle

Abstract

The invention provides a pedal mechanism for a vehicle, comprising a supporting frame assembly and a pedal plate. The pedal plate comprises a first pedal arm and a second pedal arm; the first pedal arm and the second pedal arm are arranged at an interval; and one end of the first pedal arm, which is far away from the second pedal arm, is rotatably connected with the supporting frame assembly. One end of the second pedal arm, which is close to the first pedal arm, is provided with a guide limiting hole; the guide limiting hole is provided with a first end part and a second end part which is opposite to the first end part; and the second end part is located between the first end part and the first pedal arm. The pedal mechanism for the vehicle further comprises at least one connecting plate and a power-absorbing element; and two ends of each connecting plate are respectively and fixedly connected with the first pedal arm and the second pedal arm. One end of the power-absorbing element is fixedly connected with the first pedal arm and the other end of the power-absorbing element is convexly provided with a clip; and the clip is in interference fit with the guide limiting hole and is abutted against the inner side wall of the first end part. The pedal mechanism for the vehicle disclosed by the invention can effectively protect legs and feet of a driver.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vehicle safety device, in particular to a vehicle pedal mechanism. Background technique [0002] Existing pedal mechanisms for vehicles generally include a support frame and a pedal, the pedal and the support frame are rotatably connected, and the pedal includes a pedal arm and a pedal portion arranged at the end of the pedal arm. During the normal running of the vehicle, if an accidental frontal collision occurs, the driver will usually apply a relatively large braking force to the pedal portion of the vehicle pedal mechanism in the case of emergency braking. Under the impact of the impact force, the vehicle body moves backward and invades the cockpit, and at the same time pushes the vehicle pedal mechanism to move backward, causing the vehicle pedal mechanism to cause damage to the driver's legs and feet. [0003] However, generally the existing vehicle pedal mechanism is not equipped with an energy-absorbing structure, an...

Problems solved by technology

Under the impact of the impact force, the vehicle body moves backward and invades the cockpit, and at the same time pushes the vehicle pedal mechanism to move backward, causing the vehicle pedal mechanism to cause damage to the driver's legs and feet

[0003] However, generally existing vehicle pedal mechanisms are not equipped with energy-absorbing structures, and it is difficult to protect the driver's legs and feet when a collision occurs.
