[0008] Based on the above technical features, further, the mounting plate is connected to the vehicle floor using a fixed bracket, and the fixed bracket is designed with a shock-absorbing element to reduce the impact of vibration on the pedal body.

[0009] Based on the above technical features, preferably, the electric motor is a servo motor, which can provide precise control force and position feedback.

[0010] Based on the above technical features, preferably, the control unit adopts a microprocessor, has a self-diagnosis function, and can monitor the system status in real time.

[0011] Based on the above technical features, preferably, the pedal body is made of aluminum alloy material, the outer layer of the pedal body is provided with an anti-corrosion coating, a plurality of anti-slip rubber strips are provided on the pedal body, and a plurality of water-permeable holes are provided between the anti-slip rubber strips.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0013] The present application adopts a motor to rotate the pedal body to fold or unfold horizontally. The curvature of the upper surface of the pedal body is adapted to the curvature of the door. When the pedal body is folded, the height of the chassis of the vehicle body will not be reduced, and the lower frame of the door can be protected.

[0014] The curvature of the upper surface of the pedal body matches the curvature of the lower edge of the door, which provides better matching and aesthetics, while likely helping to reduce aerodynamic drag;

[0015] The mounting plate is connected to the vehicle floor with a fixed bracket and is designed with shock-absorbing elements, which effectively reduce the impact of vibrations caused by uneven roads or driving on the pedal body, and also reduce the impact force on the connection of the mounting plate caused by getting on and off the vehicle.

[0016] 4. There are several anti-slip rubber strips on the pedal body, which provide good grip and increase the safety of passengers when getting on and off the vehicle. At the same time, the water-permeable holes between the anti-slip rubber strips help to drain rainwater and other liquids, preventing water accumulation and slipping.
