[0027] The utility model provides a hidden side pedal for a new energy vehicle, which has a compact structure and is easy to operate, and can effectively improve the overall aesthetics of the vehicle and the convenience of passengers getting on and off the vehicle.

[0028] The specific structure is as follows:

[0029] Pedal assembly 1

[0030] Pedal 11: Made of high-strength, lightweight alloy, it ensures load-bearing capacity while reducing vehicle weight. Its surface is anti-slip treated to enhance stability when pedaling.

[0031] The plastic arc-shaped sleeve 12 is fixed at both ends of the pedal piece 11 and is designed with a rounded arc, which is not only beautiful but also can effectively prevent passengers from accidentally kicking sharp corners and causing injuries when getting on and off the vehicle.

[0032] Anti-slip rubber strip 13: embedded in the surface of the pedal piece 11, it is made of wear-resistant and highly elastic rubber material to increase the friction between the sole and the pedal, ensuring stable pedaling support in all weather conditions.

[0033] Telescopic fixed bracket 2

[0034] Swing arm 21: As the core component of support and transmission, one end of the swing arm 21 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the pedal plate 11 by a high-strength bolt to ensure its stability.

[0035] Rocker arms 22: The two rocker arms 22 are hinged on both sides of the swing arm 21, and realize synchronous movement with the swing arm 21 through precise mechanical structure design.

[0036] Fixed arm 23 : The other end of the rocker arm 22 is hingedly connected to the fixed arm 23 . A fixing plate 31 is fixedly provided on the upper side of the fixed arm 23 for mounting the baffle assembly 3 .

[0037] Electric motor 24: Mounted on one side of fixed arm 23 and connected to rocker arm 22 via gear transmission or direct drive, it automatically expands and contracts telescopic fixed bracket 2. Electric motor 24 incorporates an intelligent control system and can be activated by door switch signals or manual operation.

[0038] Connecting rod 25: The two sets of telescopic fixed brackets 2 are fixedly connected by connecting rod 25, ensuring synchronous movement of the brackets on both sides and improving the stability and coordination of the overall structure. One set of telescopic fixed brackets 2 does not include an electric motor 24 and acts as a driven bracket, achieving synchronous movement with the active bracket through connecting rod 25.

[0039] Baffle assembly 3

[0040] The fixing plate 31 serves as the basis of the baffle assembly 3 and is fixedly arranged on the upper side of the fixing arm 23 for supporting and connecting other components.

[0041] Fixed baffle 32: Made of high-strength lightweight material, fixedly arranged on the outside of the fixed plate 31, with a flat and smooth surface.

[0042] Rubber baffle 33: Attached closely to the outside of fixed baffle 32, it is made of a highly elastic, wear-resistant rubber material, offering excellent sealing and cushioning properties. The curved end of rubber baffle 33 not only creates an aesthetically pleasing appearance, but also serves to shield pedal assembly 1 from leakage when retracted. When the vehicle is traveling on muddy or wet roads, rubber baffle 33 prevents muddy water from splashing onto the upper and outer sides of pedal assembly 1, thereby ensuring that the upper and outer sides of pedal assembly 1 remain clean. When pedal assembly 1 is extended, it prevents trouser legs and cuffs from getting dirty when a person enters the vehicle.

[0043] Raised strip 34: fixedly arranged on the inner lower part of the fixed baffle 32. When the telescopic fixed bracket 2 is retracted, the raised strip 34 fits tightly against the inner upper part of the pedal assembly 1, and together with the fixed baffle 32, the rubber baffle 33 and the pedal assembly 1, forms a cleaning groove 35, which is convenient for cleaning the pedal assembly 1 and the baffle assembly 3. By flushing the cleaning groove 35, the upper surface of the pedal assembly 1 and the inner side of the rubber baffle 33 can be rinsed and cleaned, thereby keeping the pedal assembly 1 and the baffle assembly 3 clean.

[0044] Working process

[0045] Expanded state: When the door is opened, the electric motor 24 receives a signal to start, driving the swing arm 21 and the rocker arm 22 to expand through the transmission mechanism, causing the entire baffle assembly 3 to extend outward until it reaches the preset position. At this point, the step assembly 1 is fully exposed, making it easier for passengers to get on and off the vehicle.

[0046] Retracted state: When the door is closed or the vehicle is started, the electric motor 24 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the swing arm 21 and the rocker arm 22 to retract, and driving the baffle assembly 3 to retract inward until the fixed baffle 32 is located above the pedal assembly 1, and the rubber baffle 33 is close to the outside of the pedal assembly 1, forming a hidden appearance, reducing wind resistance and improving the aesthetics of the vehicle.

[0047] Cleaning and maintenance: In the retracted state, due to the design of the cleaning groove 35 surrounded by the convex strip 34, the fixed baffle 32, the rubber baffle 33 and the pedal assembly 1, the upper surface of the pedal assembly 1 and the inner side of the rubber baffle 33 can be rinsed and cleaned by flushing the cleaning groove 35, thereby keeping the pedal assembly 1 and the baffle assembly 3 clean.

[0048] In summary, the hidden side pedal for new energy vehicles of the present invention realizes the automatic expansion and contraction of the pedal through ingenious mechanical design and intelligent control system, which not only improves the practicality and aesthetics of the vehicle, but also takes into account the convenience of cleaning and maintenance.

[0049] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
