[0057] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0058] A pedal support for mounting a pedal, a pedal mounting assembly, a retractable pedal device, and a vehicle equipment according to embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0059] The vehicle device according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a vehicle 2000 and a retractable step device 1000. The retractable step device 1000 is mounted on the vehicle 2000 and is movable between an extended position and a retracted position for assisting people to get on and off the vehicle.

[0060] The retractable step device 1000 may be mounted to at least one of the left and right sides of the vehicle 2000, and may also be mounted to the rear side of the vehicle 2000. In the following description of the embodiment, the retractable step device 1000 is mounted to the left side of the vehicle 2000.

[0061] like Fig.13 and Fig.14As shown, in some embodiments, the vehicle device further includes a side bar 500, which is mounted on the vehicle 2000, for example, mounted on the lower edge of the left and right sides of the vehicle 2000, for protecting the side of the vehicle, and optionally, the side bar 500 can be used as a fixed pedal. The retractable pedal device 1000 is mounted on the bottom 20001 of the vehicle 2000, wherein in the retracted position, the pedal 200 is located below and inside the side bar 500, and in the extended position, the pedal 200 is located below the side bar 500 and at least partially outside the side bar 500. Thus, not only can the side bar 500 play a role in protecting the vehicle and the retractable pedal device, but it can also be used as a fixed pedal, and the side bar and the retractable pedal device form two steps, which are particularly suitable for vehicles with a higher chassis.

[0062] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the retractable pedal device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention comprises a pedal mounting assembly 100 and a pedal 200, wherein the pedal 200 is mounted on the pedal mounting assembly 100 to move between an extended position and a retracted position. The pedal mounting assembly 100 has a pedal support 2 connected to the pedal 200, such as Figure 4 As shown, the lateral direction of the pedal support 2 is parallel to the length direction of the pedal 200. For example, the lateral direction of the pedal support 2 is Figure 4 The left and right direction in .

[0063] When the retractable step device 1000 is mounted on the left or right side of the vehicle 2000, the lateral direction of the step support 2 is consistent with the front-rear direction of the vehicle 2000, and the left-right direction of the step 200 is consistent with the front-rear direction of the vehicle 2000. The outer side (outer end) of the step support 2 refers to the side of the step support 2 away from the vehicle 2000 along the left-right direction of the vehicle; the inner side (inner end) of the step support 2 refers to the side of the step support 2 adjacent to the vehicle 2000 along the left-right direction of the vehicle.

[0064] When the retractable step device 1000 is installed on the rear side of the vehicle, the lateral direction of the step support 2 is consistent with the left-right direction of the vehicle 2000, and the length direction of the step 200 is consistent with the left-right direction of the vehicle 2000. The outer side (outer end) of the step support 2 refers to the side of the step support 2 away from the vehicle 2000, and the inner side (inner end) of the step support 2 refers to the side of the step support 2 adjacent to the vehicle 2000.

[0065] In the extended position, the pedal 200 and the pedal support 2 extend outwardly from the outer edge 20002 of the vehicle body so that the user can step on the pedal 200. In the retracted position, the pedal 200 and the pedal support 2 are retracted to the inner side of the outer edge 20002 of the vehicle body.

[0066] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, the pedal mounting assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present invention comprises a first support arm 3, a second support arm 4 and a pedal support 2. The pedal support 2 has a first side 201 and a second side 202 which are separated from each other in the lateral direction thereof. Figure 4 As shown, the first side 201 is the right side of the pedal support 2 , and the second side 202 is the left side of the pedal support 2 .

[0067] At least one of the first side 201 and the second side 202 is connectable to the pedal 200, the first support arm 3 is pivotally connected to the pedal support 2, and the second support arm 4 is pivotally connected to the pedal support 2 to move the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 between an extended position and a retracted position.

[0068] The first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 are respectively connected to the bottom body 20001 of the vehicle 2000 so as to be pivotable.

[0069] For example, the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 may be directly pivotally connected to the underbody 20001 of the vehicle 2000. In some embodiments, the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 are indirectly pivotally connected to the underbody 20001 of the vehicle 2000.

[0070] In the example of the present invention, the first support arm 3, the second support arm 4 and the pedal support 2 constitute a link mechanism, which can be connected to the driving device 400 to drive the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 to move between the extended position and the retracted position. In other words, the driving device 400 can be connected to the first support arm 3 or the second support arm 4. In the illustrated embodiment, the driving device 400 is connected to the first support arm 3.

[0071] According to the pedal mounting assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, since at least one of the first side 201 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 can be connected to the pedal 200, the overall thickness of the pedal support 2 in the vertical direction after being assembled with the pedal 200 is small in the extended position, especially in the retracted position, and the pedal mounting assembly 100 requires a small installation space, and is particularly suitable for use in vehicles 2000 with a low chassis. Therefore, the pedal mounting assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present invention requires a small space, has strong applicability, and improves the vehicle's passability.

[0072] In the related art, the pedal 200 is usually installed on the pedal support 2 along its thickness direction (i.e., the up-down direction of the vehicle 2000), that is, the pedal support and the pedal are stacked in the up-down direction, so that the pedal 200 and the pedal support 2 occupy a large space. For vehicles with a low chassis, the pedal 200 and the pedal support 2 are easy to collide with ground obstacles, and the service life is short.

[0073] The pedal mounting assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present invention is connected to at least one of the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 through the pedal 200, so that the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 are substantially located at the same level. In other words, the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 are arranged side by side in the length direction of the pedal 200, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 after assembly, and the upper surface of the pedal support 2 can be used for stepping, thereby making the pedal mounting assembly 100 compact in structure, which is conducive to improving space utilization and having a better use effect.

[0074] Compared with the "support arm directly connected to the pedal" in the related art, in the embodiment of the present invention, the pedal mounting assembly 100 is pivotally connected to the pedal support 2 through the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4, and the pedal 200 is connected to the pedal support 2. On the one hand, the bearing capacity of the pedal mounting assembly 100 and the pedal 200 after assembly can be improved, and the user can step on the pedal 200 more smoothly and not easily damaged. On the other hand, the pedal support 2, as an adapter, can be pre-assembled into an integral unit with the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 before leaving the factory. The pedal mounting assembly 100 and the pedal 200 can be packaged and transported separately, thereby reducing transportation costs, facilitating later assembly, and simplifying operation.

[0075] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the pedal support 2 of the embodiment of the present invention includes a first side wall 22, a second side wall 23 and a connecting portion 24. The first side wall 22 and the second side wall 23 are flat and arranged parallel to each other. The connecting portion 24 is connected between the outer end of the first side wall 22 and the outer end of the second side wall 23 so as to enclose a pedal support groove 21 that opens inward. The pedal support 2 has a first side 201 and a second side 202 that are separated from each other in the width direction of the pedal support groove 21, and at least one of the first side 201 and the second side 202 is provided with a support matching portion 25 that can be connected to the pedal 200.

[0076] It should be noted that the inner end of the pedal support groove 21 refers to the end of the pedal support groove 21 adjacent to the vehicle 2000. The outer end of the pedal support groove 21 refers to the end of the pedal support groove 21 away from the vehicle 2000.

[0077] According to the pedal support 2 for mounting a pedal according to the embodiment of the present invention, since at least one of the first side 201 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 is provided with a support matching portion 25 that can be connected to the pedal 200, when the pedal 200 is connected to the pedal support 2, the two are arranged side by side in the length direction of the pedal 200, so that the overall thickness of the pedal support 2 in the vertical direction after being assembled with the pedal 200 can be reduced, thereby reducing the space required for installation, and the pedal support 2 is particularly suitable for use in vehicles with a lower chassis. Therefore, the pedal support 2 for mounting a pedal according to the embodiment of the present invention occupies a small space, has strong applicability, and improves the vehicle's passability.

[0078] Since the pedal support 2 is generally U-shaped, the opening of the pedal support groove 21 faces the inner side of the pedal support 2. Thus, an escape space can be provided for the first support arm and the second support arm of the pedal mounting assembly 100. In the retracted position, the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 can be closer to the bottom of the vehicle body, which can reduce the probability of collision with obstacles and improve the vehicle's passability.

[0079] Alternatively, if Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the outer surface 203 of the connecting portion 24 (also referred to as the outer surface of the pedal support) is an inclined surface that is inclined inward from top to bottom, that is, the cross section of the connecting portion 24 is generally triangular, which can reduce the possibility of the connecting portion 24 colliding with external obstacles. Fig. 9 and Fig.15 As shown, the inner surface 204 of the pedal support 2 is substantially a vertical surface, which can facilitate the processing and manufacturing of the pedal support 2.

[0080] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the inner surface 28 of the connecting portion 24 is an inclined surface that is inclined inward from top to bottom. The inner surface 28 of the connecting portion 24 is the surface of the connecting portion 24 that defines the pedal support groove 21. Since the inner surface 28 of the connecting portion 24 is an inclined surface, it can provide an escape space for the first support arm and the second support arm of the pedal mounting assembly 100. In the retracted position, the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 can be closer to the bottom of the vehicle body, reducing the probability of the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 colliding with obstacles protruding from the ground, thereby improving the vehicle's passability. On the other hand, the inner surface 28 is an inclined surface, which can reduce the impact on the structural strength of the pedal support 2.

[0081] In some embodiments, Figure 8 and Fig. 9As shown, a first boss 26 is provided on the first side wall surface 211 of the pedal support groove 21, and a second boss 27 is provided on the second side wall surface 212 of the pedal support groove 21. The first boss 26 and the second boss 27 are opposite to each other in the lateral direction of the pedal support 2 (i.e., the length direction of the pedal 200), and the outer end of the first boss 26 and the outer end of the second boss 27 are connected to the connecting portion 24. The first boss 26 can be formed integrally with the first side wall 22 and the connecting portion 24, and the second boss 27 can be formed integrally with the second side wall 23 and the connecting portion 24. In other words, the pedal support 2 is one-piece, thereby improving the overall structural strength and bearing capacity of the pedal support 2. Compared with the related art in which "the pedal support 2 is thickened in the up and down directions and the length is increased", the pedal support 2 in the embodiment of the present invention is thinner in thickness and is farther from the ground in the retracted position.

[0082] In some embodiments, Figures 19 to 21 As shown, only one side (first side 201 or second side 202) of the pedal support 2 is used to connect with the pedal 200. Specifically, there are two pedal mounting assemblies 100, one pedal 200, and the pedal 200 is arranged between the two pedal mounting assemblies 100. At this time, one end of the pedal 200 along the length direction is connected to the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 of one pedal mounting assembly 100. The other end of the pedal 200 along the length direction is connected to the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of the other pedal mounting assembly 100.

[0083] In other embodiments, Figure 7 , Fig.17 and Fig.18 As shown, the first side 201 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 are respectively connected to different pedals 200. Specifically, there are three pedal mounting assemblies 100 and two pedals 200, and the three pedal mounting assemblies 100 and the two pedals 200 are alternately arranged along the length direction of the pedal 200. The first side 201 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of the pedal mounting assembly 100 located in the middle position are respectively connected to the two pedals 200, so that the retractable pedal device 1000 can adapt to vehicles 2000 with different wheelbases, and has a wider range of applications.

[0084] Optionally, at least one of the first side 201 and the second side 202 is provided with a support fitting portion 25 connectable to the pedal 200. It is understandable that the support fitting portion 25 can be used to connect to the pedal fitting portion 2003 of the pedal 200, and the pedal fitting portion 2003 and the support fitting portion 25 are engaged with each other to fix the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200. Exemplarily, the engagement mode of the pedal fitting portion 2003 and the support fitting portion 25 can be plug-in.

[0085] For example, Fig.21 and Fig. 22As shown, the support fitting portion 25 is provided on one side of the pedal support 2 along its lateral direction. Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, both lateral sides of the pedal support 2 are provided with support matching parts 25, that is, both the first side 201 and the second side 202 are provided with support matching parts 25. The support matching parts 25 facilitate the connection between the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200, and the structure is more stable.

[0086] Specifically, Figure 8 As shown, the support fitting portion 25 may include a plurality of prisms, and the plurality of prisms are arranged at intervals in the longitudinal direction of the pedal support 2. It is understood that the longitudinal direction of the pedal support 2 is consistent with the width direction of the pedal 200, that is, Figure 4 The plurality of prisms are respectively inserted into the plurality of pedal matching parts 2003 of the pedal 200, thereby further improving the structural stability.

[0087] In the illustrated embodiment, the pedal matching portion 2003 of the pedal 200 is a matching hole, which is provided on the end surface of the pedal 200 in the length direction. The number of the matching holes is the same as the number of the prisms and they are plugged together in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0088] For example, the pedal 200 may be a hollow aluminum alloy profile or a profile made of other materials. The pedal matching portion 2003 may be directly formed in the pedal 200 during the production of the pedal 200. The cross-sectional profile of the prism matches the pedal matching portion 2003 (matching hole).

[0089] Exemplarily, the cross section of at least one prism is non-circular. For example, the prism may be a rectangular prism or a triangular prism. This can prevent the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 from rotating relative to each other. For example, there may be three prisms, which are arranged at intervals along the longitudinal direction (i.e., the inner and outer directions) of the pedal support 2.

[0090] Specifically, Figure 8 As shown, the plurality of prisms include a first prism 251, a second prism 252 and a third prism 253 arranged in an inner and outer direction at intervals, the third prism 253 is located between the first prism 251 and the second prism 252, and the second prism 252 corresponds to the connecting portion 24 in the width direction of the pedal support groove 21. It can be understood that the second prism 252 is located outside the first prism 251 and connected to the connecting portion 24, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the pedal support 2.

[0091] In the example of the present invention, the cross-sections of the first prism 251 and the third prism 253 are rectangular, and the cross-section of the second prism 252 is triangular, thereby further improving the structural strength.

[0092] In one example, if Figure 4As shown, the pedal mounting assembly 100 further includes an end cap 300, the end cap 300 is provided with an end cap matching portion 3001, the first side 201 and the second side 202 are both provided with a support matching portion 25, and the end cap matching portion 3001 is engaged with the support matching portion 25 on one side of the first side 201 and the second side 202 to connect the end cap 300 to the pedal support 2. It can be understood that the support matching portion 25 on one side of the first side 201 and the second side 202 is suitable for connecting with the pedal 200, and the support matching portion 25 on the other side of the first side 201 and the second side 202 is suitable for connecting with the end cap 300.

[0093] By setting the end cover, the first side 201 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 are both provided with a support matching portion 25, and the support matching portion 25 of the pedal support located on the side of the pedal connection can be connected to the end cover, thereby improving the versatility of the pedal mounting assembly 100, reducing the number of production molds, and reducing manufacturing costs.

[0094] In other words, when the support fitting portion 25 of the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 is connected, the end cover 300 can be provided on the support fitting portion 25 of the second side 202 of the pedal support 2. Similarly, when the support fitting portion 25 of the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 is connected, the end cover 300 can be provided on the support fitting portion 25 of the first side 201 of the pedal support 2. Thus, the pedal supports 2 of the pedal mounting assemblies 100 at different positions are common to each other and can share a set of molds to reduce production and assembly costs.

[0095] like Figure 4 As shown, the outer contour of the end surface of the end cover 300 (i.e., the surface of the end cover 300 facing the pedal support 2) is substantially flush with the outer contour of the side surface of the pedal support 2, so that there is no step structure between the assembled end cover 300 and the pedal support 2. On the one hand, the appearance of the pedal mounting assembly 100 is beautiful and the integrity is good. On the other hand, a part of the end cover 300 can also be stepped on by the user, thereby improving the space utilization of the pedal mounting assembly 100 and making the structure design compact.

[0096] Furthermore, the outer peripheral contour of the cross section of the pedal 200 is substantially aligned with the outer peripheral contour of the side surface of the pedal support 2, thereby making it possible to improve the integrity of the pedal 200 after being connected to the pedal support 2.

[0097] In another example, if Figures 19 to 21As shown, the pedal mounting assembly 100 includes an end cap 300, one of the first side 201 and the second side 202 is provided with a support fitting portion 25, and the end cap 300 is connected to the other of the first side 201 and the second side 202 or is made integrally with the pedal support 2. It can be understood that the support fitting portion 25 is only provided on one side of the pedal support 2 in the lateral direction, and is used to be connected to the pedal 200. The end cap 300 is provided on the other side of the pedal support 2 in the lateral direction. The end cap 300 and the pedal support 2 can be connected in a detachable manner, or can be made integrally with the pedal support 2.

[0098] In some embodiments, Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the pedal support 2 is generally U-shaped with a pedal support groove 21, and the pedal support 2 includes a first side wall 22 of the pedal support, a second side wall 23 of the pedal support, and a connecting portion 24, and the pedal support groove 21 is open inward. In other words, the pedal support 2 is a U-shaped plate and has a pedal support groove 21 that is open inward, and the pedal support 2 has a flat structure, which further reduces the occupied space.

[0099] The first support arm 3 has a first end ( Fig.13 The upper end) 301 and the second end ( Fig.13 The second support arm 4 has a first end ( Fig.13 The upper middle end) 41 and the second end ( Fig.13 The lower end) 42 in the middle, the second end 302 of the first support arm 3 and the second end 42 of the second support arm are respectively pivotally connected to the pedal support 2 in the pedal support groove 21, and the pedal support groove 21 can provide an avoidance space for the rotation of the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4.

[0100] Compared to "the pivot point between the support arm and the pedal support is arranged on the upper side, lower side or front side of the pedal support 2", in the embodiment of the present invention, the pedal mounting assembly 100 can reduce the occupied space in both the extended position and the retracted position, thereby improving the compactness of the structure.

[0101] like Fig.13 As shown, the third pivot axis X3 of the second end 302 of the first support arm is located inside the fourth pivot axis X4 of the second end 42 of the second support arm, that is, the first support arm 3 is closer to the inside than the second support arm 4.

[0102] In some embodiments, Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the third pivot axis X3 of the second end 302 of the first support arm 3 is located inside the first boss 26 and the second boss 27 and passes through the first side wall 22 and the first side wall 23 of the pedal support. In other words, the third pivot axis X3 does not pass through the first boss 26 and the second boss 27.

[0103] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the fourth pivot axis X4 of the second end 42 of the second support arm 2 passes through the first side wall 22, the first boss 26, the second boss 27 and the second side wall 23 of the pedal support. It can be understood that the third pivot axis X3 and the fourth pivot axis X4 are substantially located in the same horizontal plane, and the second end 42 of the second support arm is disposed between the first boss 26 and the second boss 27.

[0104] Alternatively, if Figure 8 As shown, the pedal support 2 has a third hole 205 and a fourth hole 206, and the third hole 205 passes through the first side wall 22 of the pedal support and the second side wall 23 of the pedal support. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the third hole 205 is used to pass the third shaft 8, the central axis of the third shaft 8 is the same axis as the third pivot axis X3, and the second end 302 of the first support arm 3 is connected to the third shaft 8. The second end 302 of the first support arm 3 is provided with a sixth hole 3020, and the third shaft 8 is passed through the sixth hole 3020 and the third hole 205 on the pedal support 2, so that the second end 302 of the first support arm can rotate relative to the pedal support 2.

[0105] like Figure 8 As shown, the fourth hole 206 passes through the first side wall 22, the first boss 26, the second boss 27 and the second side wall 23, and the third hole 205 is located inside the fourth hole 206. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the fourth hole 206 is used to pass the fourth shaft 9, the central axis of the fourth shaft 9 is the same axis as the fourth pivot axis X4, the second end 42 of the second support arm is provided with an eighth hole 421, the fourth shaft 9 passes through the eighth hole 421 on the second support arm 4 and the fourth hole 206 on the pedal support 2, so that the second end 42 of the second support arm can rotate relative to the pedal support 2.

[0106] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the inner surface 28 of the connecting portion 24 is an inclined surface to avoid the second support arm 4 in the retracted position. Thus, the dimensions of the pedal support 2 and the second support arm 4 in the up-down direction in the retracted position are smaller.

[0107] In some embodiments, Fig.13 As shown, in the extended position, the length of the first support arm 3 in the pedal support groove 21 is L3a. Fig.14 As shown, in the retracted position, the length of the first support arm 3 located in the pedal support groove 21 is L3b, wherein L3a is smaller than L3b. In other words, the dimension of the first support arm 3 located in the pedal support groove 21 in the retracted position is greater than the dimension of the first support arm 3 located in the pedal support groove 21 in the extended position.

[0108] In the extended position, Fig.13 As shown, the length of the second support arm 4 in the pedal support groove 21 is L4a. Fig.14 As shown, in the retracted position, the length of the second support arm 4 located in the pedal support groove 21 is L4b, wherein L4a is smaller than L4b. In other words, the dimension of the second support arm 4 located in the pedal support groove 21 in the retracted position is greater than the dimension of the second support arm 4 located in the pedal support groove 21 in the extended position.

[0109] Therefore, in the retracted position, the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 can make fuller use of the space of the pedal support groove 21, and the pedal support 2 and the pedal can be higher, that is, closer to the bottom of the vehicle body, thereby improving the vehicle's passability.

[0110] In some embodiments, Figures 10 to 13 As shown, the first end 301 of the first support arm 3 is provided with a receiving groove 3011, and the first end 41 of the second support arm 4 is received in the receiving groove 3011. Since the first end 41 of the second support arm 4 is received in the receiving groove 3011, the first pivot axis X1 of the first end 301 and the second pivot axis X2 of the second end 42 can be closer, so that the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 can be more compact.

[0111] like Figure 5 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the first end 41 of the second support arm 4 is provided with a cylindrical portion 411, and the cylindrical portion 411 is accommodated in the accommodation groove 3011. It can be understood that the cylindrical portion 411 can be rotatably accommodated in the accommodation groove 3011, and when the first end 41 of the second support arm rotates, the cylindrical portion 411 can synchronously rotate in the accommodation groove 3011, thereby constraining the movement trajectory of the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4, and the movement of the connecting rod mechanism composed of the first support arm 3, the second support arm 4 and the pedal support 2 is smoother.

[0112] like Figure 5 and Fig.10 As shown, a seventh hole 420 is provided in the cylindrical portion 411 and penetrates along the axial direction thereof, and a second shaft 7 is passed through the seventh hole 420, and the second shaft 7 can be connected to the vehicle 2000 or the mounting support 1. Exemplarily, the pedal mounting assembly 100 includes a mounting support 1, and a second hole 17 is provided on the mounting support 1, and the second shaft 7 is rotatably supported in the second hole 17, so that the second support arm 4 and the mounting support 1 can be rotatably connected.

[0113] like Figure 5 , Fig.13 and Fig.14As shown, the pedal mounting assembly 100 further includes a baffle 5, which is mounted on the first end 301 of the first support arm and is used to prevent the first end 41 of the second support arm from escaping from the receiving groove 3011. The baffle 5 can rotate with the rotation of the first support arm 3. The baffle 5 can limit the first end 41 of the second support arm from escaping from the receiving groove 3011, and can shield and hide the matching structure between the first end 41 of the second support arm and the first support arm 3, thereby ensuring the aesthetic appearance of the pedal mounting assembly 100, reducing the entry of impurities such as mud and sand into the receiving groove 3011, and helping to improve the reliability and stability of the cylindrical portion 411 when rotating in the receiving groove 3011.

[0114] In one example, if Fig.16 As shown, when in the retracted position, the baffle 5 stops on the outside of the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4, thereby ensuring the aesthetic appearance and integrity of the pedal mounting assembly 100, reducing the probability of impurities such as mud and sand entering the receiving groove 3011, and helping to improve the reliability and stability of the cylindrical portion 411 when rotating in the receiving groove 3011.

[0115] like Fig.11 As shown, a baffle mounting hole 36 is provided on the first support arm 3 , and the baffle mounting hole 36 is used to penetrate rivets or screws to install the baffle 5 .

[0116] In some embodiments, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the first end 301 of the first support arm is provided with a block mounting hole 3012 extending along the thickness direction of the first support arm 3 and a fifth hole 3010 extending along the width direction of the first support arm 3, the fifth hole 3010 passes through the block mounting hole 3012, the fifth hole 3010 is equipped with a first shaft 6 for driving the first support arm 3 to rotate, the block mounting hole 3012 is equipped with a block 62, the first shaft 6 has a slot 61, a part of the block 62 is engaged in the slot 61 to prevent the first shaft 6 from rotating in the fifth hole 3010.

[0117] The block 62 is used to limit the first shaft 6 from rotating relative to the fifth hole 3010. In other words, the first shaft 6 rotates together with the first support arm 3.

[0118] like Figure 5 As shown, the first shaft 6 is used to be connected to the driving device 400, so that the driving device 400 drives the first support arm 3 to rotate through the first shaft 6. The driving device 400 can be a motor, or an integrated module of a motor and a reducer. The driving device 400 can drive the first shaft 6 to rotate, and the first shaft 6, under the restraining effect of the block 62, drives the first support arm 3 to rotate synchronously around the axis of the first shaft 6 (i.e., the first pivot axis X1).

[0119] like Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the slot 61 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the first shaft 6, the block 62 is engaged in the block mounting hole 3012, and a part of the block 62 is embedded in the slot 61, thereby limiting the rotation of the first shaft 6 relative to the fifth hole 3010, that is, limiting the rotation of the first shaft 6 relative to the first support arm 3.

[0120] For example, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the block 62 is connected to the first support arm 3 through a fastener 63 to prevent the block 62 from coming out of the block mounting hole 3012. For example, the fastener 63 may be a screw.

[0121] In some embodiments, Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, the pedal mounting assembly 100 further includes a first buffer block 35 and a second buffer block 43, wherein the first buffer block 35 is disposed at the first end 301 of the first support arm, and the second buffer block 43 is disposed on the second support arm 4. In the extended position, the first buffer block 35 faces the second support arm 4. In the retracted position, the second buffer block 43 faces the first support arm 3.

[0122] like Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, in the extended position, the first buffer block 35 can abut against the second support arm 4. In the retracted position, the second buffer block 43 abuts against the first support arm 3. Thus, when the pedal mounting assembly 100 moves between the extended position and the retracted position, the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 can be prevented from directly colliding, the noise of the pedal mounting assembly 100 during operation can be reduced, and the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 can be prevented from being scratched and damaged.

[0123] The first buffer block 35 and the second buffer block 43 can be made of elastic or other soft materials, such as rubber.

[0124] like Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the first support arm 3 has an arm slot 31 extending along its length direction, and the depth of the arm slot 31 can gradually change along its length direction. A portion of the second support arm 4 is accommodated in the arm slot 31. In a cross section orthogonal to the length direction of the first support arm 3, the cross-sectional profile of the first support arm 3 is generally U-shaped.

[0125] like Fig.11 As shown, the arm slot 31 includes a first side wall 32 of the arm slot, a second side wall 33 of the arm slot and a bottom surface 34 of the arm slot. The first side wall 32 and the second side wall 33 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom surface 34 of the arm slot along the width direction of the first support arm 3 to enclose a generally U-shaped space.

[0126] Since a portion of the second support arm 4 is accommodated in the arm slot 31, the pedal mounting assembly 100 is more compact in structure in the retracted position, and the first support arm 3 can restrain and protect the second support arm 4, which is beneficial to improving the smoothness of the movement of the installed pedal assembly.

[0127] In some embodiments, Figures 13 to 16 As shown, the pedal mounting assembly 100 further includes a mounting support 1, which is used to be connected to the vehicle 2000. The first end 301 of the first support arm 3 is connected to the mounting support 1 and is pivotable around the first pivot axis X1, the second end 302 of the first support arm is connected to the pedal support 2 and is pivotable around the third pivot axis X3, the first end 41 of the second support arm is connected to the mounting support 1 and is pivotable around the second pivot axis X2, and the second end 42 of the second support arm is connected to the pedal support 2 and is pivotable around the fourth pivot axis X4.

[0128] like Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, the mounting support 1, the first support arm 3, the second support arm 4 and the pedal support 2 constitute a connecting rod mechanism. When the driving device 400 drives the first support arm 3 to rotate around the first pivot axis X1, the second support arm 4 rotates synchronously as a driven rod, thereby driving the pedal support 2 and the pedal connected thereto to extend or retract.

[0129] like Fig.14 As shown, the mounting bracket 1 can protrude from the outer edge 20002 of the vehicle body in the horizontal direction, so that the side bar 500 can be installed on the mounting bracket 1, which improves the convenience of installing the side bar 500. Fig.15 As shown, the mounting bracket 1 can be located on the inner side of the outer edge 20002 of the vehicle body in the horizontal direction.

[0130] In some examples, such as Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, the first pivot axis X1 is located inside the second pivot axis X2, and the third pivot axis X3 is located inside the fourth pivot axis X4.

[0131] like Figure 5 As shown, the first shaft 6 is passed through the first hole 16 on the mounting support 1, and the first shaft 6 is connected to the first end 301 of the first support arm. The first pivot axis X1 is colinear with the central axis of the first shaft 6.

[0132] like Figure 5 As shown, the mounting support 1 has a mounting support groove 11 extending along its length direction, the first end 301 of the first support arm is pivotally connected to the mounting support 1 in the mounting support groove 11, and the first end 41 of the second support arm is pivotally connected to the mounting support 1 in the mounting support groove 11.

[0133] In the extended position, the length of the first support arm 3 in the mounting support groove 11 is L1a, and in the retracted position, the length of the first support arm 3 in the mounting support groove 11 is L1b, wherein L1a is smaller than L1b.

[0134] like Figures 13 to 16 As shown, in the extended position, the length of the second support arm 4 in the mounting support groove 11 is L2a, and in the retracted position, the length of the second support arm 4 in the mounting support groove 11 is L2b, wherein L2a is smaller than L2b.

[0135] Thus, in the retracted position, the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 can fully utilize the space of the mounting support groove 11, and the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 can be closer to the bottom of the vehicle body, that is, the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 can be higher.

[0136] Alternatively, if Fig.16 As shown, in the retracted position, the upper surface 29 of the pedal support is adjacent to the bottom surface 101 of the mounting support. Thus, the size of the pedal mounting assembly 100 in the retracted position can be further reduced, and the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 are closer to the bottom of the vehicle body, which is conducive to expanding the application range of the pedal mounting assembly 100.

[0137] For example, Fig.16 As shown, the distance G between the upper surface 29 of the pedal support and the bottom surface 101 of the mounting support is less than 20 mm. Preferably, the distance G between the upper surface 29 of the pedal support and the bottom surface 101 of the mounting support is greater than 1 mm and less than 8 mm. For example, G can be 1 mm, 2 mm, 4 mm, 6 mm, or 8 mm.

[0138] like Figure 5 As shown, the mounting bracket 1 includes an extension portion 15, and the extension portion 15 extends horizontally inward. The extension portion 15 can be connected to the bottom of the vehicle body 20001 to improve the reliability of the connection between the pedal mounting assembly 100 and the vehicle 2000.

[0139] like Figure 5 As shown, the mounting support 1 includes a first side wall 12, a second side wall 13 and a top wall 14. The first side wall 12 and the second side wall 13 are arranged at intervals along the lateral direction of the mounting support 1 (the length direction of the pedal 200). The top wall 14 is connected to the first side wall 12 and the second side wall 13 to enclose the mounting support groove 11.

[0140] In some embodiments, Figures 13 to 16As shown, in the retracted position, in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, that is, viewed along the length direction of the pedal 200, the outer edge 240 of the pedal support 2 is located inside the second pivot axis X2. That is, when the pedal support 2 is in the retracted position, the outer edge 240 is located more inward than the second pivot axis X2, closer to the vehicle 2000, and the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 are closer to the bottom of the vehicle body in the retracted position, reducing the possibility of scratching against obstacles.

[0141] For example, Fig.14 As shown, in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, the outer edge 240 of the pedal support is located inside the first pivot axis X1. Thus, in the retracted position, the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 are closer to the inside and the top, reducing the probability of scratching against obstacles.

[0142] Alternatively, if Fig.14 As shown, in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, the outer edge 240 of the pedal support 2 is aligned with the first pivot axis X1 in the up-down direction. Further optionally, in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, the outer edge 240 of the pedal support is located outside the first pivot axis X1 and adjacent to the first pivot axis X1, and preferably, the distance between the outer edge 240 of the pedal support and the first pivot axis X1 is less than 5 mm.

[0143] like Fig.14 As shown, in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, in the retracted position, the angle θ between the first connecting line S1 between the first pivot axis X1 and the third pivot axis X3 and the horizontal direction is greater than or equal to 25 degrees and less than or equal to 35 degrees. The inventors have found through experimental research that when the angle θ between the first connecting line S1 and the horizontal plane is within the above range, the height of the pedal mounting assembly 100 in the vertical direction after retraction can be reduced, and the problem of interference between the first support arm 3 and the vehicle 2000 can be avoided, thereby improving the space utilization of the pedal mounting assembly 100 on the vehicle 2000 and making the structure of the pedal mounting assembly 100 more compact.

[0144] For example, the angle θ between the first connecting line S1 and the horizontal plane may be 25 degrees, 28 degrees, 30 degrees, 32 degrees, or 35 degrees.

[0145] Similarly, Fig.14As shown, in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, in the retracted position, the angle θ between the second connecting line S2 between the second pivot axis X2 and the fourth pivot axis X4 and the horizontal direction is greater than or equal to 25 degrees and less than or equal to 35 degrees. It can be understood that the angle θ between the second connecting line S2 and the horizontal plane is selected between 25 degrees and 35 degrees. The inventor of the present application has found through experimental research and experimental verification that when the angle θ between the second connecting line S2 and the horizontal plane is selected within the above range, it can not only reduce the height dimension of the pedal mounting assembly 100 after retraction, but also avoid the problem of interference between the retracted second support arm 4 and the vehicle 2000, thereby improving the space utilization of the pedal mounting assembly 100 on the vehicle 2000, making the structure of the pedal mounting assembly 100 more compact.

[0146] It should be noted that the angle between the first connecting line S1 and the horizontal plane may be equal to or different from the angle between the second connecting line S2 and the horizontal plane. For example, the angle between the second connecting line S2 and the horizontal plane may be 25 degrees, 28 degrees, 30 degrees, 32 degrees, or 35 degrees.

[0147] Preferably, in the retracted position, a second line S2 between the second pivot axis X2 and the fourth pivot axis X4 is substantially parallel to the first line S1.

[0148] like Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, when the pedal mounting assembly 100 is in the retracted position, in the direction from the first end 301 of the first support arm to the second end 302 of the first support arm, the first support arm 3 generally extends downwardly and obliquely toward the inside of the vehicle 2000. In the direction from the first end 41 of the second support arm to the second end 42 of the second support arm, the second support arm 4 generally extends downwardly and obliquely toward the inside of the vehicle 2000. In the retracted position, the first support arm 3 is located above the second support arm 4.

[0149] like Fig.13 and Fig.15 As shown, when the pedal mounting assembly 100 is in the extended position, in the direction from the first end 301 of the first support arm to the second end 302 of the first support arm, the first support arm 3 generally extends downwardly and obliquely toward the outside of the vehicle 2000. Similarly, in the direction from the first end 41 of the second support arm to the second end 42 of the second support arm, the second support arm 4 generally extends downwardly and obliquely toward the outside of the vehicle 2000. In the extended position, the first support arm 3 is located below the second support arm 4.

[0150] When the pedal mounting assembly 100 moves between the retracted position and the extended position, the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 have a certain swing angle. In some examples, from the retracted position to the extended position, the swing angle of the first connecting line S1 is greater than or equal to 105 degrees and less than or equal to 120 degrees. Since the first connecting line S1 can be substantially parallel to the second connecting line S2, the swing angle of the second connecting line S2 is also greater than or equal to 105 degrees and less than or equal to 120 degrees.

[0151] The inventors have found through experimental research that when the swing angle of the first connecting line S1 from the retracted position to the extended position is within the above range, the action process of the pedal mounting assembly 100 is more reasonable and the mechanical performance is better.

[0152] For example, the swing angle of the first connecting line S1 (the second connecting line S2) can be 105 degrees, 1110 degrees, 115 degrees, or 120 degrees.

[0153] like Figures 17 to 20 As shown, the retractable pedal device 1000 of other embodiments of the present invention comprises at least one pedal 200 and a plurality of pedal mounting assemblies 100. The pedal 200 has a treading surface 2006, and in the pedal supports 2 of adjacent pedal mounting assemblies 100, the first side 201 of one pedal support 2 is opposite to the second side 202 of another pedal support 2, and the pedal 200 is connected between the first side 201 of one pedal support 2 and the second side 202 of another pedal support 2, so that the pedal mounting assembly 100 moves the pedal 200 between the extended position and the retracted position.

[0154] According to the retractable pedal device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention, since the pedal 200 is connected between the first side 201 of one pedal support 2 and the second side 202 of the other pedal support 2, the overall thickness of the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 in the up and down directions after assembly is small in the extended position, especially in the retracted position, and the required installation space is small. The pedal mounting assembly 100 is particularly suitable for vehicles 2000 with a lower chassis.

[0155] In one example, if Fig.19 As shown, the pedal mounting assembly 100 includes a first pedal mounting assembly 110 and a second pedal mounting assembly 120, a first end 2001 of the pedal 200 is connected to a first side 201 of the pedal support 2 of the first pedal mounting assembly 110, and a second end 2002 of the pedal 200 is connected to a second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of the second pedal mounting assembly 120. In this example, the retractable pedal device 1000 includes only two sets of pedal mounting assemblies 100 (i.e., the first pedal mounting assembly 110 and the second pedal mounting assembly 120), and the two sets of pedal mounting assemblies 100 are respectively arranged on both sides of the pedal 200 along the length direction of the pedal.

[0156] In another example, if Fig.17 and Fig.18 As shown, the pedal mounting assembly 100 includes a first pedal mounting assembly 110, a second pedal mounting assembly 120, and at least one intermediate pedal mounting assembly 130 located between the first pedal mounting assembly 110 and the second pedal mounting assembly 120. The pedal 200 includes at least a first pedal 210 and a second pedal 220, wherein a first end 2001 of the first pedal is connected to a first side 201 of a pedal support 2 of the first pedal mounting assembly 110, a second end 2002 of the first pedal is connected to a second side 202 of a pedal support 2 of one intermediate pedal mounting assembly 130, a first end 2001 of the second pedal is connected to a first side 201 of a pedal support 2 of one intermediate pedal mounting assembly 130 or another intermediate pedal mounting assembly 130, and a second end 2002 of the second pedal is connected to a second side 202 of a pedal support 2 of the second pedal mounting assembly 120.

[0157] like Fig.17 and Fig.18 As shown, a plurality of pedal mounting assemblies 100 (a first pedal mounting assembly 110, a second pedal mounting assembly 120, and an intermediate pedal mounting assembly 130) and a plurality of pedals 200 (a first pedal 210 and a second pedal 220) are alternately arranged along the length direction of the pedal 200. The intermediate pedal mounting assembly 130 is located between the first pedal mounting assembly 110 and the second pedal mounting assembly 120. The first side 201 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of the intermediate pedal mounting assembly 100 are respectively connected to the two pedals 200 (the first pedal 210 and the second pedal 220), thereby extending the length of the retractable pedal device 1000 and having a wider range of applications.

[0158] like Fig.24 and Fig.25 As shown, each of the first pedal mounting assembly 110 and the second pedal mounting assembly 120 includes an end cap 300, and the end cap 300 of the first pedal mounting assembly 110 is connected to the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of the first pedal mounting assembly 110, and the end cap 300 of the second pedal mounting assembly 120 is connected to the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 of the second pedal mounting assembly 120. That is, when the support fitting portion 25 of the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 is connected to the pedal 200, the end cap 300 can be arranged on the support fitting portion 25 of the second side 202 of the pedal support 2. Similarly, when the support fitting portion 25 of the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 is connected to the pedal 200, the end cap 300 can be arranged on the support fitting portion 25 of the first side 201 of the pedal support 2. As a result, the pedal supports 2 of the pedal mounting assemblies 100 at different positions are mutually compatible, which reduces the production and assembly costs.

[0159] The second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of the first pedal mounting assembly 110 and the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 of the second pedal mounting assembly 120 are respectively provided with a support matching portion 25. The end cover 300 is provided with an end cover matching portion 3001 engaged with the support matching portion 25.

[0160] Furthermore, if Figures 17 to 19 As shown, the upper surface 3003 of the end cover, the tread surface 2006 of the pedal 200 and the upper surface 29 of the pedal support are substantially flush, and the outer surface 3004 of the end cover, the outer surface 2007 of the pedal and the outer surface 203 of the pedal support are substantially flush. On the one hand, the integrity of the pedal 200, the pedal support 2 and the end cover 300 after connection can be improved. On the other hand, the user can also step on the end cover 300, thereby improving the space utilization of the retractable pedal device 1000, and the structural design is compact.

[0161] Other specific embodiments of the retractable step device 1000 are described below.

[0162] like Figures 1 to 27 As shown, the retractable pedal device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention comprises a pedal 200 and a plurality of pedal mounting assemblies 100. The pedal 200 has a first end and a second end in its length direction, the pedal 200 has a treading surface 2006, and the pedal 200 is connected between adjacent pedal mounting assemblies 100.

[0163] The pedal mounting assembly 100 includes a mounting support 1, a pedal support 2, and at least one pair of support arms (e.g., a first support arm 3 and a second support arm 4). The pedal support 2 has a pedal support slot 21 that is open inward, and the pedal support 2 has a first side 201 and a second side 202 that are away from each other in the length direction of the pedal 200. The at least one pair of support arms are pivotally connected to the mounting support 1 and the pedal support 2, respectively, to move the pedal 200 between an extended position and a retracted position.

[0164] In two adjacent pedal mounting assemblies 100, the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 of one pedal mounting assembly 100 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of the other pedal mounting assembly 100 face each other in the length direction of the pedal 200, the first end 2001 of the pedal is connected to the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 of one pedal mounting assembly 100, and the second end 2002 of the pedal is connected to the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of the other pedal mounting assembly 100.

[0165] In other words, two adjacent pedal mounting assemblies 100 are respectively arranged on both sides of the pedal 200 along the length direction of the pedal. Thus, the assembly of the retractable pedal device 1000 is simple, and in the extended position, especially in the retracted position, the overall thickness of the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 after assembly is small, so that the required installation space is small, so that the pedal mounting assembly 100 can be better applied to the vehicle 2000 with a lower chassis.

[0166] like Figures 13 to 16 As shown, in the extended position, the length of the first support arm 3 in the pedal support groove 21 is L3a, and the length of the second support arm 4 in the pedal support groove 21 is L4a. In the retracted position, the length of the first support arm 3 in the pedal support groove 21 is L3b, and the length of the second support arm 4 in the pedal support groove 21 is L4b, wherein L3a is smaller than L3b, and L4a is smaller than L4b. In the retracted position, the tread surface 2006 of the pedal 200 is substantially horizontal and adjacent to the bottom surface 101 of the mounting bracket.

[0167] like Fig.14 As shown, in the retracted position, the length of the second support arm 4 located in the pedal support groove 21 is L4b, wherein L4a is smaller than L4b.

[0168] Alternatively, if Fig.19 and Fig. 20 As shown, the first end 2001 of the pedal 200 and the second end 2002 of the pedal are respectively provided with a pedal matching portion 2003, and the first side 201 of the pedal support 2 of one pedal mounting assembly 100 and the second side 202 of the pedal support 2 of another pedal mounting assembly 100 are respectively provided with a support matching portion 25, and the pedal matching portion 2003 and the support matching portion 25 are engaged with each other.

[0169] Optionally, one of the pedal matching portion 2003 and the support matching portion 25 includes at least one matching hole, and the other of the pedal matching portion 2003 and the support matching portion 25 includes at least one prism, the cross-section of the matching hole and the cross-section of the prism are non-circular and fit each other, and the prism is inserted and matched in the matching hole. In this way, the overall structural strength of the pedal support 2 can be improved, so that the connection between the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 is more reliable, and the assembly and disassembly is convenient.

[0170] In some embodiments, Fig.16As shown, the first end 301 of the first support arm is pivotable about the first pivot axis X1 relative to the mounting support 1, the second end 302 of the first support arm is pivotable about the third pivot axis X3 relative to the pedal support 2, the first end 41 of the second support arm is pivotable about the second pivot axis X2 relative to the mounting support 1, and the second end 42 of the second support arm is pivotable about the fourth pivot axis X4 relative to the pedal support 2, wherein in a plane orthogonal to the length direction of the pedal 200, in the retracted position, the third pivot axis X3 and the fourth pivot axis X4 are located in the area defined by the outer peripheral contour of the pedal 200, and the outer edge 2004 of the pedal is located on the inner side of the second pivot axis X2.

[0171] like Fig.14 and Fig.16 As shown, when the pedal 200 is in the retracted position, the outer edge 2004 of the pedal is located further inward than the second pivot axis X2. Since the third pivot axis X3 and the fourth pivot axis X4 are located within the area defined by the outer periphery of the pedal 200, the retractable pedal device 1000 can be made more compact and occupy less space overall.

[0172] Alternatively, if Fig.14 and Fig.16 As shown, in a plane orthogonal to the length direction of the pedal 200 (i.e., in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1), in the retracted position, the outer edge 2004 of the pedal is located inside the first pivot axis X1. Alternatively, in a plane orthogonal to the length direction of the pedal 200, in the retracted position, the outer edge 2004 of the pedal is located outside the first pivot axis X1 and adjacent to the first pivot axis X1. In other words, when the pedal 200 is in the retracted position, the outer edge 2004 of the pedal is substantially located between the first pivot axis X1 and the second pivot axis X2. Preferably, the distance between the outer edge 2004 of the pedal and the first pivot axis X1 is less than 5 mm.

[0173] Some further specific embodiments of the retractable step device 1000 are described below.

[0174] like Figures 1 to 27As shown, the retractable pedal device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention comprises a pedal 200, a first support arm 3 and a second support arm 4. The pedal 200 has a treading surface 2006 and is movable between an extended position and a retracted position, the first support arm 3 can be connected to the bottom body 20001 of the vehicle 2000 and can pivot around a first pivot axis X1, the first support arm 3 is connected to the pedal 200 and can pivot around a third pivot axis X3, the second support arm 4 can be connected to the bottom body 20001 of the vehicle 2000 and can pivot around a second pivot axis X2, the second support arm 4 is connected to the pedal 200 and can pivot around a fourth pivot axis X4, wherein in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, in the retracted position, the third pivot axis X3 and the fourth pivot axis X4 are located within the area defined by the outer peripheral contour of the pedal 200.

[0175] According to the retractable pedal device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention, when in the retracted position, the third pivot axis X3 and the fourth pivot axis X4 are located in the area defined by the outer peripheral contour of the pedal 200, and the retractable pedal device 1000 is farther from the ground. Therefore, the installation space required for the retractable pedal device 1000 is smaller, thereby improving the vehicle's passability.

[0176] Alternatively, if Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, the third pivot axis X3 is adjacent to the inner edge 2005 of the pedal. Thus, the retractable device is more compact and has a smaller height dimension in the retracted position.

[0177] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the first end 301 of the first support arm 3 is pivotable around the first pivot axis X1, the second end 302 of the first support arm is pivotable around the third pivot axis X3, the first end 41 of the second support arm 4 is pivotable around the second pivot axis X2, and the second end 42 of the second support arm is pivotable around the fourth pivot axis X4.

[0178] The first end 301 of the first support arm is provided with a receiving groove 3011, and the first end 41 of the second support arm is received in the receiving groove 3011, so that the first pivot axis X1 of the first end 301 of the first support arm and the second pivot axis X2 of the second end 42 of the second support arm can be closer, thereby making the structure of the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 more compact.

[0179] In a direction parallel to the first pivot axis X1, the pedal 200 is arranged side by side with the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4, so that the projection of the pedal 200 in the horizontal plane does not overlap with the projection of the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 in the horizontal plane. In this way, the overall thickness of the retractable pedal device 1000 after retraction can be reduced.

[0180] The retractable pedal device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention makes the projection of the pedal 200 in the horizontal plane non-overlapping with the projection of the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 in the horizontal plane, so that the pivot structure of the first support arm 3 (second support arm 4) and the pedal 200 is roughly at the same horizontal height as the pedal 200, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the retractable pedal device 1000 after retracting.

[0181] Some further specific embodiments of the retractable step device 1000 are described below.

[0182] like Figures 1 to 27 As shown, the retractable pedal device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention comprises a pedal 200, a first support arm 3 and a second support arm 4. The pedal 200 has a treading surface 2006, and the pedal 200 is movable between an extended position and a retracted position, the first support arm 3 is connectable to the bottom body 20001 of the vehicle 2000 and is pivotable around a first pivot axis X1, the first support arm 3 is connectable to the pedal 200 and is pivotable around a third pivot axis X3, the second support arm 4 is connectable to the bottom body 20001 of the vehicle 2000 and is pivotable around a second pivot axis X2, and the second support arm 4 is connectable to the pedal 200 and is pivotable around a fourth pivot axis X4.

[0183] The second pivot axis X2 is located outside the first pivot axis X1, the fourth pivot axis X4 is located outside the third pivot axis X3, and in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, in the retracted position, the outer edge 2004 of the pedal is located inside the second pivot axis X2.

[0184] According to the retractable pedal device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention, since the outer edge 2004 of the pedal in the retracted position is located on the inner side of the second pivot axis X2 in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, in the retracted position, the first support arm 3 and the second support arm 4 are stacked more compactly, which not only reduces the size of the retractable pedal device 1000 along the inner and outer directions, but also the pedal 200 can be moved higher in the retracted position to be away from the ground.

[0185] Optionally, in a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, in the retracted position, the outer edge 2004 of the pedal is located on the inner side of the first pivot axis X1.

[0186] In a plane orthogonal to the first pivot axis X1, in the retracted position, the outer edge 2004 of the pedal is located outside and adjacent to the first pivot axis X1. Preferably, the distance between the outer edge 240 of the pedal support and the first pivot axis X1 is less than 5 mm.

[0187] Further, if Fig.19As shown, the retractable pedal device 1000 also includes a pedal support 2, the second end 302 of the first support arm is pivotally connected to the pedal support 2, the second end 42 of the second support arm is pivotally connected to the pedal support 2, and the pedal 200 and the pedal support 2 are arranged side by side in the length direction of the pedal 200 so that the projection of the pedal 200 in the horizontal plane and the projection of the pedal support 2 in the horizontal plane do not overlap each other.

[0188] The pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 are substantially at the same level, so that the overall thickness of the pedal support 2 and the pedal 200 after assembly can be reduced, and a portion of the pedal support 2 can be stepped on by the user, so that the structure of the retractable pedal device 1000 can be compact, which is conducive to improving space utilization and having a better use effect.
