Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile accessories, in particular to an electric side pedal. Background Art
[0002] Electric side steps, also known as electric foot steps and electric retractable steppings, are different from the commonly used fixed steppings. The electric side steps currently in use can be extended or retracted according to the opening or closing of the door by the driver and passengers. When extended, the stepping distance can be reduced to facilitate the driver and passengers (similar to the stepping stone used in ancient times when mounting a horse). When retracted, they are stored under the vehicle chassis or at the skirt without affecting the vehicle's minimum ground clearance and vehicle appearance.
[0003] However, from the actual use effect, the reciprocating contraction effect of the electric side pedal greatly improves the comfort of car use. However, during long-term use, dust accumulates on the surface of the electric side pedal due to trampling. If it is not cleaned in time, the friction of the surface will be reduced. Secondly, in heavy snow weather, some snowflakes are still easy to accumulate on the electric side pedal platform through the gap between the electric side pedal and the car body. If it is not cleaned in time, the snow may melt and freeze, which will lead to installation hazards in subsequent use. Utility Model Content
