[0046] It should be noted that all features disclosed in the specification, or all steps of the methods or processes disclosed in the specification, can be combined in any manner, except for mutually exclusive features or steps.

[0047] Any feature disclosed in the specification, unless specifically stated otherwise, can be replaced by an alternative feature or a feature with similar functionality, and the part not specifically described is only one example of a series of alternative or similar features, and does not specifically refer to a particular component.

[0048] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort belong to the scope of the present application.

[0049] At present, the passenger cars or commercial vehicles with large ground clearance usually have vehicle side steps installed under the chassis of the vehicle to assist passengers to get on or off the vehicle. The vehicle side steps usually have two forms. One is a fixed side step. However, the fixed side step protrudes in the width direction of the vehicle body, thereby increasing the overall width of the vehicle body, which not only adversely affects the appearance of the vehicle, but also reduces the passability of the vehicle. Therefore, the other is a hinged electric side step. However, the hinged electric side step has slightly poor carrying capacity due to the use of only one driving hinge and one driven hinge, and has a large running range and a long time for the side step to be unfolded or retracted. Therefore, the vehicle cannot be started until the side step is unfolded and retracted, which affects the passenger's vehicle experience.

[0050] In order to shorten the time for the vehicle side step to be unfolded or retracted and improve the passenger's vehicle experience, the present application provides a vehicle brake pedal, and the specific technical solutions of the present application are as follows:

[0073] According to Figure 5 As shown in the structural schematic view of the second pedal of the vehicle side pedal, the first surface 311 is further provided with an anti-skid line 3111, and the anti-skid line 3111 is used for anti-skid design, so as to increase the friction between the passenger's sole and the vehicle side pedal, avoid accidents when the passenger uses the vehicle pedal to get on or off the vehicle, enhance the safety and stability of the vehicle side pedal, and improve the passenger's vehicle experience.

[0074] The above describes each component of the vehicle side pedal structure, and the connection relationship between each component of the vehicle side pedal, the working principle and the technical effect will be explained in detail.

[0075] According to Figure 1 As shown in the structural schematic view of the vehicle side pedal, the transmission mechanism 4 passes through the first pedal 2 through the through hole 24 on both sides of the first pedal 2, the length of the pipe sleeve 6 is greater than the length of the first pedal 2, when the pipe sleeve 6 is placed in the first accommodating space 22 of the first pedal 2, the two ends of the pipe sleeve 6 are located outside the first pedal 2, the second mounting portion 44 is located outside the first pedal 2, the first mounting portion 25 provided on the first pedal 2 and the second mounting portion 44 provided on the pipe sleeve 6 overlap, the first mounting hole 251 of the first mounting portion 25 is opposite to the second mounting hole 451 of the second mounting portion 44, further, the screw can pass through the first mounting hole 251 and the second mounting hole 451 at the same time, and the screw is fastened through the nut, so that the pipe sleeve 6 is fixed in the first accommodating space 22 of the first pedal 2.

[0076] Wherein, since the length of the pipe sleeve 6 is greater than the length of the first pedal 2, both ends of the pipe sleeve 6 are located outside the first pedal 2, and the two ends of the pipe sleeve 6 are assembled into the mounting groove 12 of the mounting seat 1 through the two mounting seats 1, and the mounting groove 12 is provided with a bearing 13, and the pipe sleeve 6 is connected with the bearing 13 in an interference fit.

[0077] The second pedal 3 is assembled inside the first containing space 22 of the first pedal 2, and when the second pedal 3 is inside the first containing space 22, the sliding groove 312 of the second pedal 3 is opposite to the position of the sliding rail 23 of the first pedal 2, the second pedal 3 is connected with the first pedal 2 in a sliding manner, and the rack 313 and the third gear 42 are connected in engagement, so that the second pedal 3 can move towards the inside of the first containing space 22 or towards the outside of the first containing space 22, and the sliding rail 23 is further provided with a buckle structure towards the inside of the first containing space 22, which can limit the movement of the second pedal 3 towards the outside of the first containing space 22, preventing the second pedal 3 from being separated from the first pedal 2.

[0078] The driving mechanism 5 is provided in engagement with the first gear 53, and the first gear 53 is connected in engagement with the second gear 54.

[0079] When the motor 51 of the driving mechanism 5 is driven, the worm 52 rotates to drive the first gear 53 to rotate, the first gear 53 drives the rotating shaft 41 and the third gear 42 to rotate, the third gear 42 is connected in engagement with the rack 313, which can drive the second pedal 3 to move towards the inside of the first containing space 22 or towards the outside of the first containing space 22; at the same time, when the first gear 53 rotates, the first gear 53 can drive the second gear 54 to rotate, since the second gear 54 is fixedly connected with the pipe sleeve 6 through the support 46, and the pipe sleeve 6 is fixedly connected with the first pedal 2 through the first mounting portion 25 and the second mounting portion 44, therefore, the first pedal 2 can rotate around the rotating shaft 41 towards or away from the vehicle chassis.

[0080] When the second gear 54 drives the first pedal 2 to rotate, the limiting block 45 provided on the transmission mechanism 4 abuts against the limiting plate 11 provided on the mounting seat 1 due to the rotation of the first pedal 2, the limiting plate 11 limits the rotation angle of the first pedal 2, so that the first pedal 2 is fixed and cannot continue to rotate unlimitedly, and the limiting plate 11 serves as a supporting structure of the first pedal 2, which can improve the supportability of the vehicle side pedal.

[0081] Figure 8 The application provides a side view schematic diagram of an unfolded state and a folded state of a vehicle side step, according to Figure 8 The side view schematic diagram of the unfolded state and the folded state of the vehicle side step shown in the figure can be known as follows:

[0082] When the vehicle side step is in an unfolding process (corresponding to Figure 8 the process of the vehicle side step from the folded state to the unfolded state), the first step 2 rotates away from the vehicle chassis with the rotating shaft 41 as the axis, and meanwhile, the second step 3 moves outwards to the first containing space 22; when the vehicle side step is in a folding process (corresponding to Figure 8 the process of the vehicle side step from the unfolded state to the folded state), the first step 2 rotates towards the vehicle chassis with the rotating shaft 41 as the axis, and meanwhile, the second step 3 moves inwards to the first containing space 22.

[0083] Through the technical scheme of the application, the first step 2 and the second step 3 are nested, and when the motor 51 is driven, the worm 52 rotates to drive the first gear 53 to rotate, the first gear 53 rotates to drive the rotating shaft 41 and the third gear 42 to rotate, and the third gear 42 is connected in mesh with the rack 313 to drive the second step 3 to move inwards to the first containing space 22 or outwards to the first containing space 22; meanwhile, when the first gear 53 rotates, the first gear 53 can also drive the second gear 54 to rotate, the second gear 54 further drives the first step 2 to rotate towards the vehicle chassis or away from the vehicle chassis with the rotating shaft 41 as the axis, so that the rotating process and the folding process of the vehicle side step are simultaneously performed, and the time for unfolding or folding the vehicle side step is shortened, and the use experience of passengers is improved.

[0084] The control method of the vehicle side step will be further described in detail below, Figure 8 which is a flowchart of the control method of the vehicle side step provided by the application.

[0085] According to Figure 8 the flowchart of the control method of the vehicle side step shown in the figure can be known as follows: the vehicle speed and the door handle opening value are integrated in the vehicle MCU (Micro Controller Unit, micro control unit) in advance, wherein the MCU is also called a single chip microcomputer, which refers to a chip-level computer formed by integrating the CPU, RAM, ROM, timing counter and various I / O interfaces of a computer on a chip, for different application scenarios to make different combinations of control.

[0086] When a user is riding the vehicle and the vehicle side step is in the retracted state, the MCU of the vehicle can acquire the vehicle speed and the current door handle opening value of the vehicle in real time, and determine the driving state of the vehicle according to the vehicle speed and the current door handle opening value of the vehicle, wherein the door handle opening value is the opening angle of the door handle of the vehicle, and the user can open the door handle away from the door when the user needs to open the door, and the opening angle is the angle formed between the door handle and the door.

[0087] According to the vehicle speed and the current door handle opening value, it is determined whether the vehicle speed is 0, and when it is determined that the vehicle speed is 0, it is determined that the vehicle is currently in a stopped state, and it is further determined whether the current door handle opening value is greater than a preset opening value, wherein the preset opening value is the door handle opening value required for unlocking the door, and when it is determined that the current door handle opening value is greater than the door handle opening value required for unlocking the door, it indicates that the user has the intention to open the door to get off or get on the vehicle, and therefore, when the door handle opening value of the vehicle is greater than the preset opening value and the user has not opened the door, the vehicle side step is controlled to rotate and expand, so that the user does not need to wait for the vehicle side step to expand after opening the door to get off or get on the vehicle, and the technical effect of shortening the expansion or retraction time of the vehicle side step and improving the vehicle experience of the passenger is further achieved.

[0088] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiments of the present application also provide a vehicle comprising the vehicle side step as described above.

[0089] The vehicle comprises the vehicle side step as described above, and the vehicle side step is assembled to the chassis of the vehicle below through the mounting seat 1, and when the passenger gets on or off the vehicle, the driving state of the current vehicle and whether the user has the intention to get on or off the vehicle are determined according to the vehicle speed and the current door handle opening value of the vehicle, so that the vehicle side step is controlled to complete the expansion process before the user opens the door, and the user does not need to wait for the vehicle side step to expand, so that the technical effect of shortening the expansion or retraction time of the vehicle side step and improving the vehicle experience of the passenger is achieved.

[0090] In other embodiments, the vehicle can also control the vehicle side step to expand when the vehicle speed of the vehicle is 0 and the current door handle opening value is greater than 0 and less than the preset opening value, that is, when the angle of the door handle of the door of the vehicle changes, it can be predicted whether the user has the intention to get on or off the vehicle, so that the vehicle side step is controlled to expand before the door of the vehicle is punched, and the technical effect of shortening the expansion or retraction time of the vehicle side step and improving the vehicle experience of the passenger is further achieved.

[0091] For the vehicle embodiment of the present application, since it is basically similar to a vehicle side step, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts are described in the above embodiment.

[0092] It should be noted that each of the embodiments in the present specification is described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments, and the same and similar parts between the embodiments can be referred to each other.

In addition, relationship terms such as "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between the entities or operations, nor can it be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. Moreover, the term "comprise" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that the process, method, article or terminal device including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, article or terminal device.
