Embodiment Construction

[0056] The present invention relates to a pedal 1 of the control pedal type for actuating any mechanism, and more particularly to a brake pedal designed for application in a vehicle so as to be able to actuate a braking device, preferably an auxiliary braking device.

[0057] For this, and as figure 2 As shown, the pedals are preferably mounted on a base 2, which is itself preferably attached to the vehicle's floor or engine fender 3, said pedals being pivotally hinged to the base 2 about a pivot axis (XX') , so that when pivoting under the stress of a control force F exerted by the user's foot, the pedal can drive an actuator 4, such as a brake lever or a cable, which is preferably in a compressed state.

[0058] Of course, the invention relates to a control pedal assembly 5 comprising at least one pedal 1 , preferably a brake pedal according to the invention, or even a plurality of pedals with one or more pedals 1 according to the invention.

[0059] The invention also rel...

Abstract

The invention relates to a brake pedal (1) for a vehicle, comprising a lever (6) provided with a hollow reinforcement segment (12) which comprises a longitudinal groove (13) with a pi cross-section on the one hand which opens onto the lower portion of the lever (6), said groove (13) being delimited by an upper wall (14) and two side walls (16), and at least two successive oblique reinforcement ribs (20, 120) oriented from the upper wall (14) towards the lower aperture (15) on the other hand, which each connect the left side wall (16) to the right side wall by subdividing the groove into several opening cavities (21, 121), such that in each cross-section (S1, S2, Si, . . . Sn) of the reinforced segment (12), the lever (6) has at least one closed contour for torsional reinforcement, formed by the contiguous succession of corresponding sections of the upper wall (14) forming a first crosspiece, the left side wall (16) forming a first upright member, ribs (20, 120, 220, 320) forming a second crosspiece, and the right side wall forming a second upright member.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the general field of control pedals, such as control pedal assemblies for equipping motor vehicles, to allow the user and more particularly the driver to control any function, such as acceleration, clutch disengagement or further braking. Background technique [0002] Many types of brake pedals are known, which generally include a base plate mounted on a pivot lever to allow the conversion of the thrust exerted by the user's foot on the base plate into actuation of a brake lever attached to the lever compression or tension. [0003] Due to the intensity and repetitive nature of the stresses to which the stem of the brake pedal will be subjected, the flexures and longitudinal tensions exerted by the thrust force are generally offset with respect to its mid-plane, said brake pedal should exhibit a particularly great strength and stiffness. [0004] This is why known pedals generally have a sheet metal structure of great ...
