Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile parts, in particular to an automobile pedal. Background Art
[0002] Steps are essential for getting on and off high-floor vehicles. Located on either side of the vehicle, they function like steps. Conventional step designs are fixed, non-adjustable, and aesthetically pleasing. This led to the development of electric step designs. As the name suggests, these steps are driven by a motor, allowing them to automatically extend and retract. When the driver or passenger requires the electric step, the control system issues a command, driving the motor to activate the retractable mechanism, extending the step for easier entry and exit. When not in use, the step retracts and stores under the vehicle chassis or on the side skirts, maintaining the vehicle's minimum ground clearance and aesthetics.
[0003] When the electric running board is retracted, it blocks the lifting point under the vehicle. Consequently, when the vehicle is lifted using a lift or jack, the lifting point is blocked by the running board, making it difficult for the lifting equipment to accurately and securely engage the lifting point. This significantly increases the risk of damage to the running board assembly. The uneven distribution of lifting force could cause the running board to deform, crack, or even fall off, severely damaging it. This could not only damage the electric running board itself but also affect the functioning of its associated connections and other underbody components, potentially threatening the overall structural stability of the vehicle.
[0004] When the electric step is extended, the lifting point is indeed unobstructed, making it theoretically easier to perform the lifting operation. However, maintenance at this time presents many risks: First, the extended step takes up a certain amount of space, significantly limiting the space available for maintenance personnel working under the vehicle. This can easily lead to collisions and injuries due to inconvenient operation. Second, if the maintenance process involves inspecting the vehicle's powertrain, electrical wiring, and other components, and the electric step is energized and extended, it could cause sudden movement, such as retraction or abnormal shaking, due to accidental contact, a short circuit, or other electrical faults. This would undoubtedly pose a serious threat to the maintenance personnel's personal safety, increase the risk factor for maintenance operations, and make maintenance work in this state difficult to carry out safely and efficiently.
[0005] Therefore, under normal circumstances, when repairing the underbody of a car equipped with an electric running board, it is often necessary to remove the electric running board before carrying out the subsequent repair work. This will make the repair process more complicated for the maintenance personnel and accordingly increase the time spent on the repair. Utility Model Content
[0006] The utility model provides a car pedal, which solves the problem that after an electric pedal is installed on a car, a lifting point is blocked, making it inconvenient to repair and maintain the bottom of the car.
[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is as follows:
[0008] A vehicle pedal, comprising:
[0009] A pedal and a connecting mechanism, the pedal can be telescopically mounted on the bottom of the vehicle through the connecting mechanism; the connecting mechanism includes a main bracket and a pedal bracket, the main bracket is used to be mounted on the bottom of the vehicle, one end of the pedal bracket is rotatably mounted on the main bracket, and the other end of the pedal bracket is connected to the pedal, and the pedal bracket can drive the pedal to extend or retract from the bottom of the vehicle during rotation; the main bracket is formed with a first abutting portion, and the pedal bracket is formed with a second abutting portion and a third abutting portion, when the pedal is retracted to the bottom of the vehicle, the first abutting portion abuts against the second abutting portion, and the third abutting portion is used to abut on the lifting frame, and the first abutting portion, the second abutting portion and the third abutting portion are located on the same vertical line.
[0010] According to the above technical means, one end of the pedal bracket is rotatably mounted on the main bracket. This rotatable connection method enables the pedal to be flexibly extended or retracted under the vehicle through the rotation of the pedal bracket; when the pedal is retracted under the vehicle, the first abutting portion of the main bracket abuts against the second abutting portion of the pedal bracket, so that the pedal can obtain reliable support in the retracted state, avoiding the pedal shaking, shifting or making abnormal noises due to vibrations and other reasons during vehicle driving, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the overall structure of the vehicle; during maintenance, the third abutting portion is used to abut against the lifting frame. At this time, the first abutting portion, the second abutting portion and the third abutting portion are on the same vertical line, which can effectively decompose and transmit the vertical force of the lifting frame to the pedal and the pedal bracket, so that the lifting frame can directly lift the pedal and the entire vehicle at the same time, without the need for maintenance personnel to perform tedious disassembly or processing of the pedal, and can directly carry out vehicle bottom maintenance work, which greatly simplifies the maintenance process and effectively reduces the time spent on processing the pedal, thereby significantly improving the efficiency and quality of the entire vehicle bottom maintenance work.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a motor, which is configured to be drivingly connected to the pedal bracket so that the motor can drive the pedal bracket to rotate, thereby enabling the pedal bracket to drive the pedal to extend or retract from the bottom of the vehicle.
[0012] According to the above technical means, the motor is driven and connected to the pedal bracket, so that the motor can accurately drive the pedal bracket to rotate, and then drive the pedal to smoothly extend or retract under the vehicle, which greatly improves the convenience of operation and makes it easier for passengers to use the pedal to get on and off the vehicle, significantly improving the user experience; secondly, the motor drive system reduces the space occupied by additional mechanical components, which is conducive to optimizing the layout of the vehicle's bottom space, and also makes the vehicle's appearance more beautiful and neat.
[0013] Furthermore, the connecting mechanism also includes a swing arm assembly, one end of the swing arm assembly is rotatably connected to the main bracket, and the other end of the swing arm assembly is rotatably connected to the pedal bracket, and the motor is configured to be driven and connected to the pedal bracket through the swing arm assembly.
[0014] According to the above-mentioned technical means, the driving force generated by the motor is transmitted to the pedal bracket through the swing arm assembly, so that the pedal bracket can rotate as expected, thereby driving the pedal to extend or retract under the vehicle. This transmission method can more stably and effectively transmit power from the motor to the pedal-related components, ensuring the smooth extension and retraction of the entire pedal.
[0015] Furthermore, the swing arm assembly includes a main swing arm and a secondary swing arm, one end of the main swing arm and one end of the secondary swing arm are both rotatably connected to the main bracket, the other end of the main swing arm and the other end of the secondary swing arm are both rotatably connected to the pedal bracket, and the motor is connected to one end of the main swing arm. When the main swing arm rotates, it drives the secondary swing arm to rotate, thereby driving the pedal bracket to extend or retract under the vehicle.
[0016] According to the above technical means, when the main swing arm rotates, it drives the auxiliary swing arm to rotate. The coordinated movement of the main swing arm and the auxiliary swing arm can automatically adjust the distribution and transmission of force according to different force conditions, so that the pedal can always be extended and retracted according to the predetermined trajectory, avoiding abnormal conditions such as jamming and skewing, and ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the pedal movement.
[0017] Furthermore, the swing arm assembly also includes a first driving shaft and a second driving shaft, one end of the main swing arm and the main bracket are rotatably connected through the first driving shaft, and the other end of the main swing arm and the pedal bracket are rotatably connected through the second driving shaft; the motor is connected to the first driving shaft to drive the main swing arm to rotate.
[0018] According to the above technical means, the power transmitted by the motor through the first driving shaft can be accurately converted into the rotation angle and speed of the main swing arm, and then transmitted to the pedal bracket through the second driving shaft, so that the pedal can reach the expected position during the extension and retraction process, avoiding incomplete extension or retraction, too fast or too slow, etc., thereby improving the accuracy and predictability of pedal operation.
[0019] Furthermore, the swing arm assembly also includes a first driven shaft and a second driven shaft, one end of the auxiliary swing arm and the main bracket are rotatably connected via the first driven shaft, and the other end of the auxiliary swing arm and the pedal bracket are rotatably connected via the second driven shaft, so that when the first driving shaft rotates, the first driven shaft is driven to rotate, thereby causing the pedal bracket to extend or retract from the bottom of the vehicle.
[0020] According to the above technical means, by setting the first driven shaft and the second driven shaft, the auxiliary swing arm forms a specific rotational connection relationship with the main bracket and the pedal bracket, and cooperates with the main swing arm and its corresponding first driving shaft and second driving shaft. When the first driving shaft rotates, it can drive the first driven shaft to rotate, thereby prompting the entire swing arm assembly to work together, ensuring that the pedal bracket can be smoothly and orderly extended or retracted from the bottom of the vehicle, effectively avoiding problems such as jamming and incoordination that may occur during the extension and retraction of the pedal.
[0021] Furthermore, the connecting mechanism further includes a first cover body, which is connected to an end of the main bracket away from the motor to seal a connection between the first driving shaft and the first driven shaft.
[0022] According to the above technical means, the first cover body is connected to the main bracket and seals the connection between the first driving shaft and the first driven shaft, which can effectively prevent external impurities such as dust, mud, and moisture from entering the connection; and the sealing of the first cover body helps to retain the lubricating grease inside the connection, preventing the grease from being lost due to external factors, causing the first driving shaft and the first driven shaft to become stuck during rotation, thereby reducing friction loss, improving rotation efficiency, and further ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the pedal extension and retraction action.
[0023] Furthermore, the connecting mechanism further includes a second cover body, and the second cover body is connected to the pedal bracket to seal the connection between the second driving shaft and the second driven shaft and the pedal bracket.
[0024] According to the above technical means, the second cover body is connected to the pedal bracket and seals the connection between the second driving shaft and the second driven shaft, which can effectively prevent external impurities such as dust, mud, and moisture from entering the connection; and the sealing of the second cover body helps to retain the lubricating grease inside the connection, preventing the grease from being lost due to external factors, causing the second driving shaft and the second driven shaft to become stuck during rotation, thereby reducing friction loss, improving rotation efficiency, and further ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the pedal extension and retraction action.
[0025] Furthermore, a clamping block is formed on the pedal bracket, and a clamping slot is formed on the pedal, and the clamping block is clamped with the clamping slot to clamp the pedal bracket with the pedal.
[0026] According to the above technical means, the pedal bracket and the pedal can be tightly and firmly connected through the clamping method of the clamping block and the clamping slot, which can effectively prevent the pedal from being displaced or detached from the pedal bracket during use; secondly, during the vehicle production process or in the scenario of pedal maintenance or replacement, the clamping structure of the clamping block and the clamping slot makes the installation between the pedal and the pedal bracket simple and quick, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing assembly costs.
[0027] Furthermore, a plurality of ribs are formed in the pedal, and the plurality of ribs are arranged parallel to each other to improve the load-bearing capacity of the pedal.
[0028] Based on the above-mentioned technical means, the design of the ribs can increase the load-bearing capacity of the pedal, ensuring the safety and reliability of the pedal during normal use and even under heavy loads. Moreover, while ensuring sufficient strength of the pedal, the ribs make rational use of materials, conforming to the concepts of lightweight and cost control in modern industrial design, and helping to improve the overall performance and economy of the vehicle.
[0029] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: one end of the pedal bracket is rotatably mounted on the main bracket, and this rotatable connection method enables the pedal to be flexibly extended or retracted under the vehicle through the rotation of the pedal bracket; when the pedal is retracted under the vehicle, the first abutting portion of the main bracket abuts against the second abutting portion of the pedal bracket, so that the pedal can obtain reliable support in the retracted state, avoiding the pedal shaking, displacement or abnormal noise caused by vibration and other reasons during vehicle driving, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the overall structure of the vehicle; during maintenance, the third abutting portion is used to abut on the lifting frame. At this time, the first abutting portion, the second abutting portion and the third abutting portion are on the same vertical line, which can effectively decompose and transmit the vertical force applied by the lifting frame to the pedal and the pedal bracket, so that the lifting frame can directly lift the pedal and the entire vehicle at the same time, without the need for maintenance personnel to perform tedious disassembly or processing of the pedal, and can directly carry out vehicle bottom maintenance work, which greatly simplifies the maintenance process and effectively reduces the time spent on processing the pedal, thereby significantly improving the efficiency and quality of the entire vehicle bottom maintenance work.

[0042] Example 1
[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a car pedal comprises: a pedal 1 and a connecting mechanism 2, the pedal 1 can be telescopically mounted on the bottom of the vehicle through the connecting mechanism 2; the connecting mechanism 2 comprises a main bracket 21 and a pedal bracket 22, the main bracket 21 is used to be mounted on the bottom of the vehicle, one end of the pedal bracket 22 is rotatably mounted on the main bracket 21, and the other end of the pedal bracket 22 is connected to the pedal 1, and the pedal bracket 22 can drive the pedal 1 to extend or retract under the vehicle during rotation; the main bracket 21 is formed with a first abutting portion 211, and the pedal bracket 22 is formed with a second abutting portion 221 and a third abutting portion 222. When the pedal 1 is retracted under the vehicle, the first abutting portion 211 abuts against the second abutting portion 221, and the third abutting portion 222 is used to abut on the lifting frame 3, and the first abutting portion 211, the second abutting portion 221 and the third abutting portion 222 are located on the same vertical line.
[0044] When the bottom of the car needs maintenance, the electric step is in a retracted state. At this time, the first abutting portion 211 abuts against the second abutting portion 221. When the vehicle is lifted, the third abutting portion 222 is used to abut on the lifting frame 1, so that the lifting frame 3 can lift the electric step and the entire vehicle at the same time, which is convenient for maintenance personnel to operate; and when passengers need to drive the vehicle or get on and off the vehicle, they can use the vehicle's control panel or open and close the door to extend the step 1 from the bottom of the vehicle for passengers to use, thereby improving the user experience.
[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, one end of the pedal bracket 22 is rotatably mounted on the main bracket 21. This rotatable connection method allows the pedal 1 to be flexibly extended or retracted under the vehicle by rotating the pedal bracket 22. When the pedal 1 is retracted under the vehicle, the first abutting portion 211 of the main bracket 21 abuts against the second abutting portion 221 of the pedal bracket 22, so that the pedal 1 can obtain reliable support in the retracted state, avoiding the pedal 1 from shaking, shifting or making abnormal noises due to vibrations during vehicle driving, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the overall structure of the vehicle. During maintenance, the third abutting portion 22 2 is used to abut against the lifting frame 3. At this time, the first abutting portion 211, the second abutting portion 221 and the third abutting portion 222 are on the same vertical line, which can effectively decompose and transmit the vertical force applied by the lifting frame 3 to the pedal 1 and the pedal bracket 22, so that the lifting frame 3 can directly lift the pedal 1 and the entire vehicle at the same time. There is no need for maintenance personnel to perform tedious disassembly or processing of the pedal 1. The vehicle bottom maintenance work can be carried out directly, which greatly simplifies the maintenance process and effectively reduces the time spent on processing the pedal 1, thereby significantly improving the efficiency and quality of the entire vehicle bottom maintenance work.
[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also includes a motor (not shown in the figure), which is configured to be driven and connected to the pedal bracket 22 so that the motor can drive the pedal bracket 22 to rotate, thereby enabling the pedal bracket 22 to drive the pedal 1 to extend or retract under the vehicle.
[0047] The motor is driven and connected to the pedal bracket 22, so that the motor can accurately drive the pedal bracket 22 to rotate, thereby driving the pedal 1 to smoothly extend or retract under the vehicle, which greatly improves the convenience of operation and makes it easier for passengers to get on and off the vehicle using the pedal 1, significantly improving the user experience; secondly, the motor drive system reduces the space occupied by additional mechanical components, which is conducive to optimizing the layout of the vehicle's bottom space, and also makes the vehicle's appearance more beautiful and neat.
[0048] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting mechanism 2 also includes a swing arm assembly 23, one end of the swing arm assembly 23 is rotatably connected to the main bracket 21, and the other end of the swing arm assembly 23 is rotatably connected to the pedal bracket 22, and the motor is configured to be driven and connected to the pedal bracket 22 through the swing arm assembly 23.
[0049] The driving force generated by the motor is transmitted to the pedal bracket 22 through the swing arm assembly 23, so that the pedal bracket 22 can rotate as expected, thereby driving the pedal 1 to extend or retract under the vehicle. This transmission method can more stably and effectively transmit power from the motor to the relevant components of the pedal 1, ensuring the smooth extension and retraction of the entire pedal 1.
[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the swing arm assembly 23 includes a main swing arm 231 and an auxiliary swing arm 232. One end of the main swing arm 231 and one end of the auxiliary swing arm 232 are both rotatably connected to the main bracket 21, and the other end of the main swing arm 231 and the other end of the auxiliary swing arm 232 are both rotatably connected to the pedal bracket 22, and the motor is connected to one end of the main swing arm 231. When the main swing arm 231 rotates, it drives the auxiliary swing arm 232 to rotate, thereby driving the pedal bracket 22 to extend or retract under the vehicle.
[0051] When the main swing arm 231 rotates, it drives the auxiliary swing arm 232 to rotate. The coordinated movement of the main swing arm 231 and the auxiliary swing arm 232 can automatically adjust the distribution and transmission of force according to different force conditions, so that the pedal 1 can always be extended and retracted according to the predetermined trajectory, avoiding abnormal conditions such as jamming and skewing, thereby ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the movement of the pedal 1.
[0052] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the swing arm assembly 23 also includes a first driving shaft 233 and a second driving shaft 234. One end of the main swing arm 231 is rotatably connected to the main bracket 21 through the first driving shaft 233, and the other end of the main swing arm 231 is rotatably connected to the pedal bracket 22 through the second driving shaft 234; the motor is connected to the first driving shaft 233 to drive the main swing arm 231 to rotate.
[0053] The power transmitted by the motor through the first driving shaft 233 can be accurately converted into the rotation angle and speed of the main swing arm 231, and then transmitted to the pedal bracket 22 through the second driving shaft 234, so that the pedal 1 can reach the expected position during the extension and retraction process, avoiding incomplete extension or retraction, too fast or too slow, etc., thereby improving the accuracy and predictability of the operation of the pedal 1.
[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the swing arm assembly 23 also includes a first driven shaft 235 and a second driven shaft 236. One end of the auxiliary swing arm 232 is rotatably connected to the main bracket 21 through the first driven shaft 235, and the other end of the auxiliary swing arm 232 is rotatably connected to the pedal bracket 22 through the second driven shaft 236, so that when the first driving shaft 233 rotates, the first driven shaft 235 is driven to rotate, thereby causing the pedal bracket 22 to extend or retract from the bottom of the vehicle.
[0055] Preferably, the first driven shaft 235 and the second driven shaft 236 further improve the force transmission path within the swing arm assembly 23. Starting with the motor driving the first driving shaft 233, force is transmitted sequentially through the main swing arm 231, the auxiliary swing arm 232, and the first and second driven shafts 235 and 236 to the pedal bracket 22. This complete and well-defined force transmission chain ensures that power can be stably and continuously applied to the pedal bracket 22, ensuring the reliability of the pedal 1's extension and retraction movement. Even when the vehicle is subject to various external forces (such as bumps and vibrations) during driving, the pedal 1 can still be extended and retracted as expected.
[0056] By setting the first driven shaft 233 and the second driven shaft 234, the auxiliary swing arm 232 forms a specific rotational connection relationship with the main bracket 21 and the pedal bracket 22, and cooperates with the main swing arm 231 and its corresponding first driving shaft 233 and second driving shaft 234. When the first driving shaft 233 rotates, it can drive the first driven shaft 235 to rotate, thereby prompting the entire swing arm assembly 23 to work together, ensuring that the pedal bracket 22 can be smoothly and orderly extended or retracted from the bottom of the vehicle, effectively avoiding problems such as jamming and incoordination that may occur during the extension and retraction of the pedal 1.
[0057] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting mechanism 2 further includes a first cover 24 , which is connected to an end of the main bracket 21 away from the motor to seal the connection between the first driving shaft 233 and the first driven shaft 235 .
[0058] Preferably, the first cover body 24 and the main bracket 21 are connected by bolts to facilitate subsequent maintenance of the first driving shaft 233 and the first driven shaft 235. The bolt connection exhibits good disassembly and operability, effectively reduces the difficulty of maintenance, greatly reduces the investment in maintenance time and labor costs, and effectively ensures the maintainability and reliability of the entire mechanism during long-term use, providing a solid guarantee for the continuous and stable operation of the equipment.
[0059] The first cover body 24 is connected to the main bracket 21 and seals the connection between the first driving shaft 233 and the first driven shaft 235, which can effectively prevent external impurities such as dust, mud, and moisture from entering the connection; and the sealing of the first cover body 24 helps to retain the lubricating grease inside the connection, preventing the grease from being lost due to external factors, causing the first driving shaft 233 and the first driven shaft 235 to become stuck when rotating, thereby reducing friction loss, improving rotation efficiency, and further ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the telescopic action of the pedal 1.
[0060] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting mechanism 2 further includes a second cover 25 , which is connected to the pedal bracket 22 to seal the connection between the second driving shaft 234 and the second driven shaft 236 and the pedal bracket 22 .
[0061] Preferably, the second cover body 25 and the pedal bracket 22 are connected by bolts to facilitate subsequent maintenance of the second driving shaft 234 and the second driven shaft 236. The bolt connection exhibits good disassembly and operability, effectively reduces the difficulty of maintenance, greatly reduces the investment in maintenance time and labor costs, and effectively ensures the maintainability and reliability of the entire mechanism during long-term use, providing a solid guarantee for the continuous and stable operation of the equipment.
[0062] The second cover 25 is connected to the pedal bracket 22 and seals the connection between the second driving shaft 234 and the second driven shaft 236, which can effectively prevent external impurities such as dust, mud, and moisture from entering the connection; and the sealing of the second cover 25 helps to retain the lubricating grease inside the connection, preventing the grease from being lost due to external factors, causing the second driving shaft 234 and the second driven shaft 236 to become stuck during rotation, thereby reducing friction loss, improving rotation efficiency, and further ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the telescopic movement of the pedal 1.
[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a clamping block 223 is formed on the pedal bracket 22 , and a clamping slot 11 is formed on the pedal 1 . The clamping block 223 is clamped with the clamping slot 11 , so that the pedal bracket 22 is clamped with the pedal 1 .
[0064] Through the clamping connection between the clamping block 223 and the clamping slot 22, the pedal bracket 22 and the pedal 1 can be tightly and firmly connected, which can effectively prevent the pedal 1 from being displaced or separated from the pedal bracket 22 during use; secondly, during the vehicle production process or in the maintenance or replacement scenario of the pedal 1, the clamping structure between the clamping block 223 and the clamping slot 11 makes the installation between the pedal 1 and the pedal bracket 22 simple and quick, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing assembly costs.
