DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] A medium-sized commercial vehicle combined pedal assembly includes a pedal bracket 1 and a support shaft 2. A support is provided on the inner side of the pedal bracket 1. The two ends of the support shaft 2 are fixed to the pedal bracket 1 by being mounted on the support. It also includes a rotating sleeve 6 sleeved on the support shaft 2. The clutch pedal assembly and the brake pedal assembly are fixedly mounted on the rotating sleeve 6. A limit bracket is fixedly provided on the rotating sleeve 6. A sensor switch is provided on the pedal bracket 1. The limit bracket is driven to move during the rotation of the pedal arm. When the limit bracket rotates and is located in different areas around the sensor, the sensor switch outputs a corresponding switch signal. In this solution, the pedal bracket 1 is a cast aluminum one-piece molding structure, in which the end of the support shaft 2 is fixed by a limit spring. The sensor switch has a sensing area. When the limit bracket moves to the sensing area, the sensor switch outputs a corresponding positive signal. When the limit bracket moves away from the sensing area, the sensor switch disconnects and outputs a disconnect signal.

[0021] Since the pedal assembly of the present solution is a combined pedal assembly, the number of the supports is three, including support 1 7 at the left end, support 2 8 at the right end, and support 3 9 in the middle. The support shaft 2 runs through support 1 7, support 2 8, and support 3 9. The rotating sleeve 6 includes sleeve 1 12 and sleeve 2 13. Sleeve 1 12 is sleeved on the support shaft 2 between support 1 7 and support 3 9. Sleeve 2 13 is sleeved on the support shaft 2 between support 2 8 and support 3 9. The limit bracket includes clutch limit bracket 14 and brake limit bracket 15. The clutch limit bracket 14 is installed on sleeve 1 12, and the brake limit bracket 15 is installed on sleeve 2 13. Sleeve 1 12 and sleeve 2 13 are independently arranged, and the two do not interfere with each other.

[0022] The sensor switch includes a clutch switch 16 and a brake switch 17 . The clutch switch 16 is located on the rotation path of the clutch limit bracket 14 , and the brake switch 17 is located on the path of the brake limit bracket 15 .

[0023] In this embodiment, one end of the clutch limit bracket 14 is used for inductive connection with the clutch switch 16, and the other end extends a limit head for limiting the initial position. A limit column is provided on the pedal bracket 1, and the limit head initially contacts the limit column. The structure of the limit bracket used to connect with the sensor switch is a baffle structure 24 formed by bending.

[0024] It also includes a switch bracket 18, which is fixedly mounted on the pedal bracket 1, and a sensor switch is mounted on the switch bracket 18. The position of the sensor switch can be adjusted as needed to meet the needs.

[0025] In order to realize linkage with the brake valve 22 and the clutch pump 23, the said also includes a clutch swing arm 19 and a brake swing arm 20. The clutch swing arm 19 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 12 and moves synchronously with the sleeve 12. The brake swing arm 20 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 2 13. One end of the brake swing arm 20 is connected to the brake valve 22, and the other end is connected to the return spring 21. When braking, the brake swing arm 20 rotates to press down the return spring 21. One end of the return spring 21 is supported on the assembly bracket, and the other end is supported on the brake swing arm 20. Compared with the traditional torsion spring structure set on the rotating sleeve 6, this kind of return spring 21 structure has the advantages of stable and reliable return, low failure rate, and long service life. The pedal bracket 1 is a cast aluminum one-piece structure.
