[0034] In existing technology, a footrest is provided in front of the seat in the passenger compartment of a car for users to step on. The footrest is integrated with the car floor and its position is fixed, with a fixed footrest surface. Users of different body types or in different sitting postures have different angle requirements for the footrest surface, and the footrest integrated with the car floor cannot meet these requirements, which reduces the user's riding comfort.

[0035] Based on this, the present application provides a footrest pedal, which includes a pedal body, a rotating shaft, and a driving component. The pedal body has multiple working positions, and the angle between the pedal body and the vehicle floor is different in different working positions. The rotating shaft is connected to the pedal body at the upper limit in the circumferential direction of the rotating shaft. The output end of the driving component is connected to the rotating shaft for transmission, and the driving component is used to drive the rotating shaft to rotate so that the pedal body switches between multiple working positions.

[0036] This design, via a drive mechanism that rotates the shaft, allows the pedal body to switch between multiple working positions. This makes the pedal surface adjustable, enabling users of different body types and those adjusting their seating posture to find the correct position for their feet. Furthermore, this footrest can be installed on the vehicle floor without encroaching on other space in the passenger compartment, such as the glove box in front of the front passenger seat, thus preserving storage space.

[0037] To better understand the technical solutions and effects of this application, without loss of generality, the specific embodiments will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] The ordinal numbers used in this article, such as first and second, are used to distinguish different parts with the same name and do not indicate a specific order or primary / secondary relationship.

[0039] In this article, "multiple" refers to two or more; "several" can be one, two, or three or more.

[0040] The directional terms "front," "back," "left," and "right" used in this document are defined based on the user's perspective while seated in a car. Using the car as a reference, the front-back direction can be understood as the length of the vehicle, and the left-right direction as the width. It is understood that the use of directional terms is merely for clarity and convenience in describing the technical solution and does not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection.

[0041] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a usage scenario of a vehicle equipped with a footrest, as provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram showing the installation position of the footrest pedal in a vehicle according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram showing different working positions of the footrest pedal provided in the embodiments of this application. Figures 1 to 3 The center line indicates the front-back direction, while the left-right direction is the horizontal direction perpendicular to the front-back direction.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the footrest 20 is located in front of a seat 13 in the passenger compartment of the vehicle and is installed on the floor 12 in front of the seat 13. Specifically, the footrest 20 can be fixedly installed on the body structure 11 corresponding to the location of the floor 12.

[0043] For example, floor 12 may include interior trim panels or carpet.

[0044] The pedal body 21 of the footrest pedal 20 has multiple working positions, including at least one footrest position L1.

[0045] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 3 It is understandable that when the footrest pedal 20 is in the footrest position L1, after the user sits on the seat 13, the user's feet can step on the pedal body 21 of the footrest pedal 20, and the angle between the pedal body 21 in the footrest position L1 and the floor 12 between the seat 13 and the pivot 22 is an obtuse angle.

[0046] Figure 1 and Figure 3In the example shown, the footrest pedal 20 has three footrest positions L1, which are referred to as the first footrest position L11, the second footrest position L12, and the third footrest position L13 for ease of explanation. Taking the floor 12 between the seat 13 and the pivot 22 of the footrest pedal 20 as a reference, when the pedal body 21 is in the first footrest position L11, there is a first angle between the pedal body 21 and the floor 12; when the pedal body 21 is in the second footrest position L12, there is a second angle between the pedal body 21 and the floor 12; and when the pedal body 21 is in the third footrest position L13, there is a third angle between the pedal body 21 and the floor 12. The first angle is greater than the second angle, and the second angle is greater than the third angle. It can be understood that the pedal body 21 is further away from the seat 13 in the first footrest position L11 relative to the second footrest position L12, and the pedal body 21 is further away from the seat 13 in the second footrest position L12 relative to the third footrest position L13.

[0047] At different footrest positions L1, the footrest surface of the pedal body 21 facing the seat 13 has different angles, which can adapt to the needs of users of different body types and different sitting postures for foot support, thereby improving the comfort of the user.

[0048] In other embodiments, the footrest positions L1 of the pedal body 21 are not limited to the three shown in the figure, but can be two, four or five, etc.

[0049] The footrest pedal 20 is installed at the rear of the passenger compartment. The pivot 22 of the footrest pedal 20 extends along the width direction of the vehicle so that the pedal body 21 can rotate toward or away from the seat 13.

[0050] In some embodiments, the pedal body 21 further includes at least one leg rest position L2 among its multiple working positions. Figure 1 and Figure 3 It is understood that when the pedal body 21 is in the leg support position L2, the pedal body 21 is used to support the user's legs, which can meet the user's needs in a semi-reclining position.

[0051] It is understandable that, in order to support the user's legs, when the pedal body 21 is in the leg support position L2, the angle between the pedal body 21 and the floor 12 located between the pivot 22 and the seat 13 is an acute angle.

[0052] With the above settings, the footrest pedal 20 can function as a footrest and also as a leg rest to meet the user's comfort requirements. Furthermore, integrating the leg rest function into the footrest pedal 20 simplifies the structure and control of the seat 13, thus saving costs.

[0053] The pedal body 21 has two opposing faces, one facing the side where the seat 13 is located, and the other facing away from the side where the seat 13 is located. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The front side of the pedal body 21 (i.e. the side facing away from the seat 13) is used as a leg support surface, and the rear side of the pedal body 21 (i.e. the side facing the seat 13) is used as a foot support surface.

[0054] The figure exemplarily illustrates a configuration where the pedal body 21 has one leg rest position L2. In other embodiments, the pedal body 21 may have two or more leg rest positions L2 to meet the needs of users of different body types or users sitting in different postures.

[0055] In one application scenario, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The footrest pedal 20 is installed in front of the passenger seat 13. The center armrest 15 is located to the left of the passenger seat 13, and the dashboard 14 is positioned in front of it. The footrest pedal 20 is located below the dashboard 14. The pedal body 21 is located above the floor 12 in front of the seat 13, allowing for adjustment at different angles to accommodate the user's leg-resting needs. The pivot 22 and drive mechanism of the footrest pedal 20 can be concealed beneath the floor 12 to enhance the vehicle's aesthetics.

[0056] In other applications, the footrest 20 can also be installed on the front side of other seats 13, such as the front side of the rear seats, and used in conjunction with the rear seats.

[0057] Please refer to this as well. Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the assembly relationship between the footrest and the vehicle body provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 5 for Figure 4 The diagram shows the structure of the footrest pedal. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The pedal body 21 shown illustrates the structure of the pedal frame 211. In actual scenarios, the pedal frame 211 is not visible.

[0058] In this embodiment, the footrest pedal 20 includes a pedal body 21, a rotating shaft 22, and a driving component 23. The side of the pedal body 21 closest to the floor 12 is connected to the rotating shaft 22 at the upper limit of the circumference of the rotating shaft 22, so that when the rotating shaft 22 rotates, it can drive the pedal body 21 to rotate together towards the side closer to the seat 13 or away from the side of the seat 13, thereby switching different working positions of the pedal body 21.

[0059] There are several ways to achieve the circumferential limiting connection between the rotating shaft 22 and the pedal body 21. In one implementation, the rotating shaft 22 is fixedly connected to the pedal body 21. For example, the rotating shaft 22 can be fixedly inserted into the pedal body 21 by interference fit, or it can be fixed to the pedal body 21 by welding or other methods. In another implementation, the rotating shaft 22 is inserted into the through hole of the pedal body 21, and a protrusion and groove that cooperate with each other in the radial direction can be provided between the rotating shaft 22 and the wall of the through hole of the pedal body 21.

[0060] In one embodiment, the footrest treadle 20 further includes a first bracket 24 and a second bracket 25, both of which are used for assembly and fixation with a fixing component; the two ends of the rotating shaft 22 are rotatably mounted on the first bracket 24 and the second bracket 25, and the driving member 23 is mounted on the first bracket 24, with the output end of the driving member 23 being connected to the end of the rotating shaft 22 near the first bracket 24 for transmission.

[0061] In the application, the fixing component that assembles and cooperates with the first bracket 24 and the second bracket 25 can be the vehicle body 11. The first bracket 24 and the second bracket 25 are arranged along the width direction of the vehicle, and both the first bracket 24 and the second bracket 25 can be detachably connected to the vehicle body 11 by fasteners such as bolts.

[0062] As set above, the footrest pedal 20 can be a modular structure, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly with the vehicle body 11 and facilitates the maintenance of the footrest pedal 20.

[0063] Please refer to this as well. Figure 6 , Figure 6 for Figure 5 A partial cross-sectional view of the pedal body of the footrest pedal shown.

[0064] In one embodiment, the footrest pedal 20 includes a pedal body 21 comprising a frame 211, an inner plate 212, an outer plate 213, and a covering. The frame 211 is located between the inner plate 212 and the outer plate 213, which are fixedly connected. The covering covers the outer periphery of the inner plate 212 and the outer plate 213. This simplifies the structure of the pedal body 21 and helps reduce its weight.

[0065] The frame 211 can be made of metal parts to ensure that the pedal body 21 has a good shape.

[0066] The inner plate 212 and outer plate 213 clamp the frame 211 and have a relatively flat surface, which facilitates the covering of the covering parts and thus improves the foot support profile. The inner plate 212 and outer plate 213 can be connected by fasteners such as bolts or fixed by welding.

[0067] The covering is wrapped around the outer periphery of the inner plate 212 and the outer plate 213, which on the one hand gives the pedal body 21 a better appearance, and on the other hand provides stable support for the user's feet or legs.

[0068] In a specific implementation, the covering may include a foam component 215 and a skin 214. The foam component 215 wraps around the outer periphery of the inner panel 212 and the outer panel 213, and the skin 214 covers the outer periphery of the foam component 215. The foam component 215 is made of a soft material, which can improve comfort when supporting the user's feet or legs.

[0069] The drive unit 23 can be a motor, which has a simple structure and is easy to implement.

[0070] In some examples, the motor can be a motor with a locking function. After the motor drives the rotating shaft 22 to switch the pedal body 21 to a suitable working position, the pedal body 21 can be well maintained in that working position.

[0071] In some examples, the motor may also integrate a speed-changing mechanism to enable the shaft 22 and the pedal body 21 to rotate more smoothly.

[0072] In addition to locking the rotation position of the shaft 22 (or the working position of the pedal body 21) by means of a motor, a mechanical structure can also be set to help limit the position of the shaft 22.

[0073] The pedal body 21 of the footrest pedal 20 includes two extreme working positions, and the pedal body 21 can rotate between these two extreme working positions under the drive of the drive member 23.

[0074] by Figure 1 and Figure 3 In the illustrated application scenario, the two extreme working positions of the pedal body 21 are the first resting position L11 and the leg support position L2. In other application embodiments, the extreme working positions of the pedal body 21 vary accordingly depending on the multiple working positions set.

[0075] A limiting component can be installed on the second bracket 25. When the rotating shaft 22 drives the pedal body 21 to rotate to the limit working position, the limiting component can limit the relative position of the rotating shaft 22 and the second bracket 25.

[0076] In this way, by limiting the position of the pivot 22 by the limiting component, the position of the pedal body 21 can be limited, thus preventing the pedal body 21 from being damaged due to excessive rotation.

[0077] Please refer to this as well. Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 for Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the limiting component installed on the second bracket. Figure 8 for Figure 7 A partial cross-sectional schematic diagram of the limiting component shown.

[0078] In one implementation, the limiting assembly includes a first limiting member 261, a second limiting member 262, and a stop post 263. The first limiting member 261 is circumferentially connected to the rotating shaft 22 for upper limiting, and the second limiting member 262 is rotatably connected to the second bracket 25. The first limiting member 261 and the second limiting member 262 are drively connected to drive the second limiting member 262 to rotate. The second limiting member 262 has an arc-shaped hole 2622, and the stop post 263 is installed on the second bracket 25 and inserted into the arc-shaped hole 2622.

[0079] As configured above, when the rotating shaft 22 rotates, it drives the first limiting member 261 to rotate. Under the transmission connection between the first limiting member 261 and the second limiting member 262, the second limiting member 262 can rotate relative to the second bracket 25. Since the stop post 263 installed on the second bracket 25 is inserted into the arc-shaped hole 2622 of the second limiting member 262, when the stop post 263 abuts against the first hole wall 2622a of the arc-shaped hole 2622 in the arc-shaped extension direction, it can restrict the rotating shaft 22 from continuing to rotate, that is, restrict the relative position of the rotating shaft 22 and the second bracket 25, thereby limiting the pedal body 21 connected to the rotating shaft 22 to one extreme working position. When the stop post 263 abuts against the second hole wall 2622b of the arc-shaped hole 2622 in the arc-shaped extension direction, it can restrict the rotating shaft 22 from continuing to rotate, that is, restrict the relative position of the rotating shaft 22 and the second bracket 25, thereby limiting the pedal body 21 connected to the rotating shaft 22 to another extreme working position.

[0080] In some examples, the first limiting member 261 may be fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 22 or integrated into a single structure. In other examples, the first limiting member 261 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 22, and the two may have matching recesses and protrusions in the radial direction of the rotating shaft 22 so that they can rotate together.

[0081] In one implementation, the first limiting member 261 can be a gear or a spline, and the first limiting member 261 has a first toothed portion 2611. The second limiting member 262 can be a toothed plate, and has a second toothed portion 2621. The first limiting member 261 and the second limiting member 262 are connected by the meshing of the first toothed portion 2611 and the second toothed portion 2621. This structure is relatively simple and easy to implement.

[0082] In one implementation, the second bracket 25 may include a bracket base 251 and a bracket plate 252, and the second limiting member 262 may be located between the bracket base 251 and the bracket plate 252. The bracket base 251 and the bracket plate 252 are connected by a plurality of fasteners 253, and one of the plurality of fasteners 253 forms the aforementioned stop post 263.

[0083] This design helps to limit the position of the second limiting member 262 in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 22, ensuring the reliability of the second limiting member 262 in cooperating with the first limiting member 261. At the same time, by using a fastener 253 connecting the bracket base 251 and the bracket plate 252 as a stop post 263, it is possible to avoid setting an additional stop post 263, which helps to reduce the number of parts.

[0084] Fastener 253 can be a bolt or screw, etc.

[0085] Limiting components Figure 7 and Figure 8 Besides the specific implementation shown, the limiting component can also have other implementation forms. For example, a protrusion protruding radially can be fixed on the rotating shaft 22, and two stops can be provided on the second bracket 25. The two stops are on the path of the protrusion rotating with the rotating shaft 22. After the rotating shaft 22 rotates to an extreme working position, the protrusion fixed to the rotating shaft 22 can abut against one of the stops to limit the rotation of the rotating shaft 22 and limit the relative position of the rotating shaft 22 and the second bracket 25, thereby limiting the pedal body 22 connected to the rotating shaft 22 to an extreme working position. After the rotating shaft 22 rotates to another extreme working position, the protrusion fixed to the rotating shaft 22 can abut against another stop to limit the rotation of the rotating shaft 22 and limit the relative position of the rotating shaft 22 and the second bracket 25, thereby limiting the pedal body 22 connected to the rotating shaft 22 to another extreme working position.

[0086] In addition to the aforementioned footrest pedal, this application embodiment also provides a vehicle including a seat 13, on which the aforementioned footrest pedal 20 is mounted on the floor 12 in front of the seat 13. Specifically, the pedal body 21 of the footrest pedal 20 is located above the floor 12 and engages with the seat 13, while the remaining structures of the footrest pedal 20, such as the pivot 22, drive component 23, first bracket 24, and second bracket 25, can be located below the floor 12. The pedal body 21 of the footrest pedal 20 has multiple working positions to meet the comfort requirements of different users.

[0087] In one implementation, the vehicle includes a controller and a seat adjustment switch. The drive unit 23 of the footrest pedal 20 is communicatively connected to the controller, and the controller can control the action of the drive unit 23 according to the seat adjustment signal sent by the seat adjustment switch.

[0088] After the above settings are configured, the user can send an adjustment signal to the controller via the seat adjustment switch. The controller will then control the drive unit 23 to adjust the working position of the pedal body 21 to match the user's sitting posture and meet the user's comfort requirements.

[0089] In some examples, the adjustment signal sent by the seat adjustment switch to the controller can be a linkage signal for adjusting the posture of the seat 13 and controlling the action of the drive unit 23. That is, after receiving the adjustment signal, the controller can simultaneously adjust the posture of the seat 13 and the working position of the pedal body 21 according to the adjustment signal.

[0090] In other examples, the seat adjustment switch can send a first adjustment signal to the controller to adjust the posture of the seat 13, and a second adjustment signal to adjust the working position of the pedal body 21.

[0091] This document uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications to this application without departing from the principles of this application, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this application.
