[0028] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0029] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 4 A foot pedal assembly 2 for a vehicle 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 According to the first embodiment of the utility model, the pedal assembly 2 for the vehicle 100 includes a pedal 21, a first drive motor 22 and a second drive motor 23. The first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 are both suitable for being installed at the bottom of the vehicle body 1. The first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 are both connected to the pedal 21 to drive the pedal 21 to move. The first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 are used to provide driving force to the pedal 21 to realize the electric control of the pedal 21. Since the pedal 21 is located at the bottom of the vehicle body 1 for passengers to step on, the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 are both installed at the bottom of the vehicle body 1, which can shorten the distance between the pedal 21 and the pedal 21, so as to improve the efficiency of power transmission to the pedal 21 and facilitate the control of the pedal 21; and the space at the bottom of the vehicle body 1 is fully utilized to make the overall structure of the first drive motor 22, the second drive motor 23 and the pedal 21 compact.

[0031] Among them, the foot pedal 21 has a foot position and an aerodynamic position. In the foot position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction, the foot pedal 21 is lower than the threshold of the vehicle body 1 and the foot pedal 21 is located on the outside of the vehicle body 1. When the foot pedal 21 is in the foot position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction, the foot pedal 21 is located on the outside of the vehicle body 1 and lower than the threshold of the vehicle body 1. At this time, the foot pedal 21 is mainly used for passengers to step on, providing support when passengers enter and exit the vehicle 100, so as to facilitate passengers to get on and off the vehicle.

[0032] In the aerodynamic position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the up-down direction and defines an airflow channel extending in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 1 between the foot pedal 21 and the vehicle body 1. In the aerodynamic position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the up-down direction and defines an airflow channel extending in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 1 between the foot pedal 21 and the vehicle body 1. At this time, the foot pedal 21 is used to improve the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle 100 and reduce the influence of the side wind on the stability of the vehicle 100 during driving.

[0033] For example, the foot pedal 21 is located in an aerodynamic position, and an air flow channel extending longitudinally of the vehicle body 1 is defined between the foot pedal 21 and the vehicle body 1. The foot pedal 21 can block the lateral wind from flowing into the lower area of ​​the vehicle body 1, reduce the impact of the lateral wind on the air flow of the vehicle body 1 during the movement of the vehicle 100, and improve the stability of the vehicle 100 during driving.

[0034] When the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 drive the foot pedal 21 to move between the foot pedal position and the aerodynamic position, the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 rotate in different directions. The first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 rotate in different directions to drive the foot pedal 21 to move between the foot pedal position and the aerodynamic position, and the foot pedal 21 can be electrically controlled according to different situations, thereby providing foot support for passengers entering and exiting the vehicle 100 or adjusting the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle 100, thereby improving the stability of the vehicle 100 when driving.

[0035] For example, when the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 rotate in the same direction, the foot pedal 21 can be translated outward. When the foot pedal 21 moves to the outside of the vehicle body 1 and is lower than the threshold of the vehicle body 1, the foot pedal 21 is located in the foot pedal position, providing foot pedal support for passengers entering and exiting the door. When the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 rotate in different directions, the foot pedal 21 can be flipped. When the foot pedal 21 is flipped from a horizontal position to a position in which the foot pedal 21 is placed in the up and down direction and an airflow channel extending longitudinally is defined between the foot pedal 21 and the vehicle body 1, the foot pedal 21 is located in an aerodynamic position, which can reduce the impact of side wind on the stability of the vehicle 100 during driving.

[0036] According to the pedal assembly 2 for the vehicle 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, when the pedal 21 is in the pedal position, it can provide pedal support for the vehicle 100, and when the pedal 21 is in the aerodynamic position, it can reduce the impact of the side wind on the vehicle 100, thereby improving the stability of the vehicle 100 during driving. By rotating the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 in different directions, the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 can drive the pedal 21 to move between the pedal position and the aerodynamic position, thereby realizing the rapid conversion of the pedal 21 between the pedal position and the aerodynamic position to meet the different functional requirements of the vehicle 100.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 According to some embodiments of the utility model, the foot pedal 21 also has a storage position, in which the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction and is stored on the bottom surface of the vehicle body 1. When the foot pedal 21 is in the storage position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction and is stored on the bottom surface of the vehicle body 1. The foot pedal 21 can be stored when it is not needed, which can protect the foot pedal 21 to a certain extent. For example, when the foot pedal 21 is not needed, the foot pedal 21 can be stored on the bottom surface of the vehicle body 1 to prevent the foot pedal 21 from being always in the footrest position and rubbing against external components.

[0038] When the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 drive the foot pedal 21 to move between the foot pedal position and the storage position, the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 both rotate in the same direction. Since the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction when the foot pedal 21 is in the foot pedal position, and the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction when the foot pedal 21 is in the storage position, the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 both rotate in the same direction, so that the foot pedal 21 can be translated, thereby realizing the movement of the foot pedal 21 between the foot pedal position and the storage position.

[0039] For example, when the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 both rotate in the clockwise direction, the foot pedal 21 can be translated toward the outside of the vehicle body 1. When the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction, the foot pedal 21 is lower than the threshold of the vehicle body 1 and the foot pedal 21 is located on the outside of the vehicle body 1, the foot pedal 21 is located in the foot pedal position; when the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 both rotate in the counterclockwise direction, the foot pedal 21 can be translated toward the inside of the vehicle body 1. When the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction and the foot pedal 21 is stored on the bottom surface of the vehicle body 1, the foot pedal 21 is located in the storage position.

[0040] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4According to some embodiments of the utility model, the first drive motor 22 is connected to the foot pedal 21 through the first connecting rod 24, and the second drive motor 23 is connected to the foot pedal 21 through the second connecting rod 25. The first connecting rod 24 can transmit the driving force of the first drive motor 22 to the foot pedal 21; the second connecting rod 25 can transmit the driving force of the second drive motor 23 to the foot pedal 21. By connecting the first connecting rod 24 and the second connecting rod 25 to the foot pedal 21, under the joint action of the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23, the foot pedal 21 can achieve movement in different directions, so that the foot pedal 21 can be switched between different positions.

[0041] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4 According to some embodiments of the utility model, the first drive motor 22 has a rotatable first output shaft 221, one end of the first connecting rod 24 is hinged to the foot pedal 21, the other end of the first connecting rod 24 is connected to the first output shaft 221, and the other end of the first connecting rod 24 is arranged at an angle to the first output shaft 221. The first output shaft 221 can transmit the driving force of the first drive motor 22 to the first connecting rod 24, and the first connecting rod 24 transmits the driving force of the first drive motor 22 to the foot pedal 21, so that the first drive motor 22 drives the foot pedal 21. The first drive motor 22 controls the rotation angle and direction of the first output shaft 221, thereby controlling the movement direction of the first connecting rod 24, and further controlling the movement direction of the foot pedal 21.

[0042] The second drive motor 23 has a rotatable second output shaft 231, one end of the second connecting rod 25 is hinged to the foot pedal 21, and the other end of the second connecting rod 25 is connected to the second output shaft 231 and is arranged at an angle to the second output shaft 231. The second output shaft 231 can transmit the driving force of the second drive motor 23 to the second connecting rod 25, and the second connecting rod 25 transmits the driving force of the second drive motor 23 to the foot pedal 21, so that the second drive motor 23 drives the foot pedal 21. The second drive motor 23 controls the rotation angle and direction of the second output shaft 231, thereby controlling the movement direction of the second connecting rod 25, and further controlling the movement direction of the foot pedal 21.

[0043] The first output shaft 221 and the first connecting rod 24 form a first connecting rod mechanism, and the second connecting rod 25 and the second output shaft 231 form a second connecting rod mechanism. By changing the angle of the first connecting rod mechanism and the angle of the second connecting rod mechanism, the movement of the foot pedal 21 can be controlled, thereby realizing a transmittable connection between the first drive motor 22, the second drive motor 23 and the foot pedal 21.

[0044] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4According to some embodiments of the utility model, the first connecting rod 24 is vertically arranged with the first output shaft 221, and the second connecting rod 25 is vertically arranged with the second output shaft 231, so that the relative movement between the first connecting rod 24 and the first output shaft 221 and between the second connecting rod 25 and the second output shaft 231 can be more flexible, thereby realizing the control of various different movement paths of the pedal 21.

[0045] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the connection position between the first connecting rod 24 and the foot pedal 21 is the first connecting position 241, and the connection position between the second connecting rod 25 and the foot pedal 21 is the second connecting position 251. The first connecting position 241 and the second connecting position 251 are located on opposite sides of the foot pedal 21, so that the foot pedal 21 can be supported and driven evenly to achieve balanced movement of the foot pedal 21, thereby improving the stability of the foot pedal 21. For example, when the foot pedal 21 is in the footrest position, the first connecting position 241 and the second connecting position 251 are located on opposite sides of the foot pedal 21, so that the opposite sides of the foot pedal 21 can be balanced in support force, thereby improving the stable support force provided by the foot pedal 21 when the passenger enters and exits the vehicle 100.

[0046] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4 According to some embodiments of the utility model, in the pedal position, the first connection position 241 is located on the side of the second connection position 251 adjacent to the vehicle body 1. When the footrest 21 is in the pedal position, the footrest 21 is placed in the horizontal direction and the footrest 21 is located on the outside of the vehicle body 1. At this time, the first connection position 241 and the second connection position 251 are located on opposite sides of the footrest 21 in the horizontal direction, the first connection position 241 is located on the side of the footrest 21 adjacent to the vehicle body 1, and the second connection position 251 is located on the side away from the first connection position 241 on the footrest 21.

[0047] In the aerodynamic position, the first connection position 241 is located above the second connection position 251. When the foot pedal 21 is in the aerodynamic position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the up-down direction and an airflow channel extending in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 1 is defined between the foot pedal 21 and the vehicle body 1. At this time, the first connection position 241 is located above the second connection position 251.

[0048] For example, the process of the foot pedal 21 moving from the foot pedal position to the aerodynamic position may be as follows: the first drive motor 22 drives the first output shaft 221 to move in the clockwise direction, the first connecting rod 24 moves around the first output shaft 221, the linkage between the first output shaft 221 and the first connecting rod 24 may enable the first connecting rod 24 to move in the clockwise direction, the linkage between the first connecting rod 24 and the foot pedal 21 may enable one end of the foot pedal 21 to move in the clockwise direction, and the first connecting position 241 moves in the clockwise direction;

[0049] The second drive motor 23 drives the second output shaft 231 to move in the counterclockwise direction, and the second connecting rod 25 moves around the second output shaft 231. The linkage between the second output shaft 231 and the second connecting rod 25 can make the second connecting rod 25 move in the counterclockwise direction. The linkage between the second connecting rod 25 and the foot pedal 21 can make the other end of the foot pedal 21 move in the counterclockwise direction, and the second connecting position 251 moves in the counterclockwise direction.

[0050] Thus, the foot pedal 21 is flipped from being placed in the horizontal direction to being placed in the up and down direction. When the foot pedal 21 is located in the aerodynamic position, the first connection position 241 is located above the second connection position 251, so that the foot pedal 21 is placed in the up and down direction and an air flow channel extending along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 1 is defined between the foot pedal 21 and the vehicle body 1, thereby reducing the influence of side wind on the stability of the vehicle 100 during driving.

[0051] For another example, the process of the foot pedal 21 moving from the aerodynamic position to the foot pedal position may be: the first drive motor 22 drives the first output shaft 221 to move in the counterclockwise direction, the first connecting rod 24 moves around the first output shaft 221, the linkage between the first output shaft 221 and the first connecting rod 24 can make the first connecting rod 24 move in the counterclockwise direction, the linkage between the first connecting rod 24 and the foot pedal 21 can make one end of the foot pedal 21 move in the counterclockwise direction, and the first connecting position 241 moves in the counterclockwise direction;

[0052] The second drive motor 23 drives the second output shaft 231 to move in the clockwise direction. The linkage between the second output shaft 231 and the second connecting rod 25 can make the second connecting rod 25 move in the clockwise direction. The linkage between the second connecting rod 25 and the foot pedal 21 can make the other end of the foot pedal 21 move in the clockwise direction. The second connecting position 251 moves in the clockwise direction.

[0053] Thus, the foot pedal 21 is flipped from being placed in the up and down direction to being placed in the horizontal direction. When the foot pedal 21 is in the foot pedal position, the first connection position 241 and the second connection position 251 are located on opposite sides of the foot pedal 21 in the horizontal direction. The first connection position 241 is located on the side of the second connection position 251 adjacent to the vehicle body 1 to provide foot support for passengers when entering and exiting the vehicle 100.

[0054] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4According to some embodiments of the present invention, the foot pedal 21 also has a storage position. In the storage position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction and is stored on the bottom surface of the vehicle body 1. When the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 drive the foot pedal 21 to move between the foot pedal position and the storage position, the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 both rotate in the same direction; in the storage position, the second connection position 251 is located on the side of the first connection position 241 adjacent to the vehicle body 1. Since the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction when it is in the footrest position, the first connection position 241 is located on the side of the second connection position 251 adjacent to the vehicle body 1; and when the foot pedal 21 is in the storage position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction, and the second connection position 251 is located on the side of the first connection position 241 adjacent to the vehicle body 1. By rotating the first drive motor 22 and the second drive motor 23 in the same direction, the foot pedal 21 can be translated toward the inside of the vehicle body 1 or toward the outside of the vehicle body 1, thereby realizing the movement of the foot pedal 21 between the footrest position and the storage position.

[0055] For example, the process of the pedal 21 moving from the pedal position to the storage position may be as follows: the first drive motor 22 drives the first output shaft 221 to move in the counterclockwise direction, the first connecting rod 24 moves around the first output shaft 221, the linkage between the first output shaft 221 and the first connecting rod 24 may enable the first connecting rod 24 to move in the counterclockwise direction, the linkage between the first connecting rod 24 and the pedal 21 may enable one end of the pedal 21 to move toward the inner side of the vehicle body 1, and the first connecting position 241 moves toward the inner side of the vehicle body 1;

[0056] The second drive motor 23 drives the second output shaft 231 to move in the counterclockwise direction, and the second connecting rod 25 moves around the second output shaft 231. The linkage between the second output shaft 231 and the second connecting rod 25 can make the second connecting rod 25 move in the counterclockwise direction. The linkage between the second connecting rod 25 and the foot pedal 21 can make the other end of the foot pedal 21 move toward the inside of the vehicle body 1, and the second connecting position 251 moves toward the inside of the vehicle body 1.

[0057] Therefore, when the foot pedal 21 is located at the storage position, the foot pedal 21 is placed in the horizontal direction, the second connection position 251 is located on the side of the first connection position 241 adjacent to the vehicle body 1, and the foot pedal 21 is stored at the bottom of the vehicle body 1, and the vehicle body 1 can protect the foot pedal 21.

[0058] For another example, the process of the foot pedal 21 moving from the storage position to the foot pedal position may be: the first drive motor 22 drives the first output shaft 221 to move in the clockwise direction, the first connecting rod 24 moves around the first output shaft 221, the linkage between the first output shaft 221 and the first connecting rod 24 can make the first connecting rod 24 move in the clockwise direction, the linkage between the first connecting rod 24 and the foot pedal 21 can make one end of the foot pedal 21 move toward the outside of the vehicle body 1, and the first connecting position 241 moves toward the outside of the vehicle body 1;

[0059] The second drive motor 23 drives the second output shaft 231 to move in the clockwise direction, and the second connecting rod 25 moves around the second output shaft 231. The linkage between the second output shaft 231 and the second connecting rod 25 can make the second connecting rod 25 move in the clockwise direction. The linkage between the second connecting rod 25 and the pedal 21 can make the other end of the pedal 21 move toward the outside of the vehicle body 1, and the second connecting position 251 moves toward the outside of the vehicle body 1.

[0060] Thus, when the footrest 21 is located at the footrest position, the footrest 21 is placed in the horizontal direction, and the first connection position 241 is located on a side of the second connection position 251 adjacent to the vehicle body 1 to provide footrest support when passengers enter or exit the vehicle 100 .

[0061] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4 According to some embodiments of the utility model, the projection of the first output shaft 221 on the horizontal plane is the first projection, the projection of the second output shaft 231 on the horizontal plane is the second projection, and the projection of the pedal 21 on the horizontal plane is the third projection. In the lateral direction of the vehicle body 1, the third projection is located between the first projection and the second projection. The first output shaft 221 and the pedal 21 are connected in a drivable manner by the first connecting rod 24, and the second output shaft 231 and the pedal 21 are connected in a drivable manner by the second connecting rod 25. The third projection of the pedal 21 on the horizontal plane is located in the middle of the first projection of the first output shaft 221 and the second projection of the second output shaft 231 on the horizontal plane. By jointly controlling the movement of the pedal 21 with the first output shaft 221 and the second output shaft 231, the balance and stability of the pedal 21 can be improved.
