DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0026] Example: Refer to Figure 1A combined foot pedal is shown, comprising a door side guard plate 7 (also called side skirt) and a foot pedal 3 installed through a vehicle body frame 1. The foot pedal 3 is arranged at the bottom of the door side guard plate 7 and can be extended to provide a stepping area. A guard pedal 8 is installed at the lower part of the door side guard plate 7. The guard pedal 8 is located above the foot pedal 3 and can be connected with the side of the foot pedal 3 after the foot pedal 3 is extended to jointly form a stepping area.

[0027] By setting the guard pedal, the guard pedal 8 can be connected with the side of the foot pedal 3 after the foot pedal 3 is extended to form a stepping area. The stepping area is formed by splicing the width of the foot pedal 3 and the width of the guard pedal 8, so it has a larger width than the width of the foot pedal 3 itself, thereby providing a stepping area larger than the width of the foot pedal 3 itself, so that passengers can step more stably and comfortably when getting on and off the vehicle.

[0028] The footrest 3 should be a telescopic footrest, and its telescopic mode can be vertical swing arm type or horizontal side sliding type; the driving mode can be motor driven or unpowered follow-up. The footrest 3 provided in this embodiment is a horizontal side sliding telescopic footrest, which is located directly below the guard plate pedal 8 and covered by the guard plate pedal 8 when in the retracted state; it is driven by the electric side sliding door to achieve telescopic movement, and it can slide out along the side and rear to the side. Figure 2 In the state shown, the front side of the bottom surface of the guard plate 8 is connected to the rear side of the surface of the footrest 3. The footrest 3 itself can be any existing plate structure, and its surface has a plurality of anti-slip strips 39 formed by integral molding or extrusion molding, and is provided with drainage holes 37.

[0029] In particular, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the surface of the guard pedal 8 provided in this embodiment has a plurality of integrally formed or extruded guard pedal anti-slip strips 86. The guard pedal 8 is installed at the bottom of the door edge guard plate 7 through a torsion spring hinge structure so that the outer edge of the bottom surface of the guard pedal 8 always abuts against the surface of the foot pedal 3.

[0030] The torsion spring type hinge structure comprises a first hinge shaft mounting portion 11 arranged at the bottom of the door edge guard plate 7, a second hinge shaft mounting portion 12 arranged at the side of the guard plate pedal 8, a hinge shaft 13 passing through the first hinge shaft mounting portion 11 and the second hinge shaft mounting portion 12, and a torsion spring 14 sleeved on the hinge shaft 13; one end of the torsion spring 14 is fixed to the first hinge shaft mounting portion 11, and the other end is fixed to the second hinge shaft mounting portion 12. Thus, by the restoring force of the torsion spring 14, the bottom surface of the guard plate pedal 8 always abuts against the surface of the foot pedal 3.

[0031] Reference Figure 5As shown, during the extension and retraction of the footboard 3, the bottom surface of the guard plate 8 frequently rubs against the footboard. In order to improve the service life of the guard plate 8, it is preferred that a plug-in slot 81 is provided near the outer edge of the bottom surface of the guard plate 8, and a wear-resistant gasket 82 is installed in the plug-in slot 81. Generally, the wear-resistant gasket 82 is plug-inly installed in the plug-in slot 81. For example, the plug-in slot 81 has a plug-in shaft 83, and the wear-resistant gasket 82 has a plug-in hole 84 that matches the plug-in shaft 83.

[0032] In order to further reduce the wear of the contact caused by sliding friction, preferably, the outer edge of the bottom surface of the wear-resistant pad 82 is provided with a wear-resistant convex ridge 85 arranged along the outer edge of the wear-resistant pad 82, and at the same time, the setting direction of the anti-slip strip 39 is parallel to the projection of the line connecting the starting point and the end point of the telescopic movement of the foot pedal 3 on the surface of the foot pedal 3. Thereby, the wear of the contact caused by sliding friction can be alleviated by the wear of the contact caused by sliding friction.

[0033] Specifically in this embodiment, refer to Figure 6 As shown, the foot pedal 3 swings along the trajectory defined by the parallelogram four-bar mechanism as the side sliding door moves, forming a partial arc motion trajectory of 30-35°, and the projection of the line connecting the starting point and the end point of the trajectory on the foot pedal 3 is the direction of the arrow. At this time, the axis a of the anti-slip strip 39 is parallel to the direction of the arrow.

[0034] On the other hand, using a mounting bracket 9 to mount the footboard 3 and the door edge guard plate 7 can improve the mounting strength of the combined footboard of this embodiment, increase the supporting force it can provide, and make the passengers step more stably and comfortably when getting on and off the vehicle. The mounting bracket 9 includes a bracket vertical plate 91, a bracket horizontal plate 92 formed by bending and extending along the bottom surface of the bracket vertical plate 91 toward one side of the vehicle body frame 1, the door edge guard plate 7 is bolted and grounded on the bracket vertical plate 91, and the footboard 3 is mounted on the bracket horizontal plate 92 through a driving mechanism that drives or guides its movement.

[0035] The above description is intended to be illustrative and not limiting. Upon reading the above description, many embodiments and many applications beyond the examples provided will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the scope of the present teachings should not be determined with reference to the above description, but should be determined with reference to the appended claims and the full scope of equivalents to which such claims are entitled. For the purpose of comprehensiveness, all articles and references, including disclosures of patent applications and publications, are incorporated herein by reference. The omission of any aspect of the subject matter disclosed herein in the preceding claims is not intended to be a waiver of the subject matter, nor should it be considered that the applicant has not considered the subject matter to be part of the disclosed application subject matter.
