Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle pedals, in particular to a vehicle-mounted pedal structure. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the automotive industry and the increasing diversification of consumer demands, vehicle design pays more and more attention to improving user experience and driving safety. As a key element connecting the interior and exterior spaces of a vehicle, the vehicle pedal is one of the important details in vehicle design. It not only provides a stable support point for users to get on and off the vehicle, ensuring safety and convenience during the boarding and alighting process, but also significantly affects the overall aesthetic appearance of the vehicle. Therefore, in order to enhance the overall aesthetic appearance and technological sense of the vehicle, the diversified design of vehicle pedals mainly includes using high-end materials (such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel) to manufacture vehicle pedals to highlight the overall luxury and texture of the vehicle; integrating the unique style of users (such as light carpet welcome lights) into the vehicle pedals through personalized customization to enhance the overall visual hierarchy of the vehicle; coordinating and matching the vehicle pedals according to the body color, and making detailed treatments, etc., to improve the overall coordination of the vehicle; connecting the vehicle pedals to the door for control, so that opening and closing the door can control the vehicle pedals to extend or retract completely, improving the overall technological sense of the vehicle.

[0003] However, on the basis of ensuring the aesthetic appearance and technological sense of the vehicle, the practicality of the vehicle pedal also needs to be considered. Therefore, traditional vehicle pedals adopt a solid structure to ensure the structural strength, rigidity and durability of the vehicle pedal, so as to extend the service life of the vehicle pedal. However, the solid structure will lead to waste of manufacturing materials for the vehicle pedal, large self-weight, large load at the connection between the vehicle body and the pedal, easy damage, resulting in the vehicle pedal being prone to falling off, posing a safety hazard and increasing the vehicle body weight, high energy consumption, complex manufacturing processes, high production costs, and when installing welcome lights, sensors or other electrical components and their connected wires on traditional vehicle pedals, the electrical components and wires on the solid-structured vehicle pedal are easily exposed, not only affecting the appearance, but also being easily invaded by external factors (such as wind, sun, rain, etc.) resulting in damage to the electrical components or wires. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a vehicle-mounted pedal structure to solve the problems of material waste, large weight, high energy consumption, affecting appearance and high production cost caused by the solid structure of vehicle pedals in the prior art.
