[0058] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 As shown, the pedal bracket 100 of this embodiment includes a mounting base 1, a connecting arm 2, a dustproof part 3, and a pedal connecting rod 4. The mounting base 1 is suitable for mounting and fixing to a vehicle body, such as a body sheet metal structure, and is not limited thereto. The pedal connecting rod 4 is suitable for mounting and fixing a pedal (not shown in the figures), and the pedal can be any type of existing technology, and is not limited thereto. The mounting base 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4 are respectively hinged to both ends of the connecting arm 2, and the mounting base 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4 can rotate relative to the connecting arm 2 about the hinge point as the rotation center. The pedal bracket 100 of this embodiment also includes a dustproof part 3. In some embodiments, such as... Figure 1 The dustproof part 3 shown is connected to the mounting base 1 and covers at least a portion of the outer side of the connecting arm 2 to prevent foreign objects from entering the hinge gap between the connecting arm 2 and the mounting base 1 and / or the pedal link 4. In other embodiments, the dustproof part 3 may be connected to the pedal link 4 and cover at least a portion of the outer side of the connecting arm 2 to prevent foreign objects from entering the pedal bracket, particularly the gap between the connecting arm 2 and the mounting base 1 and / or the pedal link 4. In other embodiments, the pedal bracket 100 may include two dustproof parts 3, each connected to the mounting base 1 and the pedal link 4 respectively.
[0059] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the pedal bracket 100, by providing a dustproof part covering the outer side of the connecting arm 2 and connected to at least one of the mounting base 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4, can isolate foreign objects such as mud and gravel, prevent abnormal noise and jamming of the pedal bracket, and increase the service life of the pedal bracket. In some embodiments, the mounting base 1 of the pedal bracket 100 further includes an integrally formed dustproof baffle 104, which is disposed above the hinge part between the connecting arm 2 and the mounting base 1, to prevent sand and gravel from entering the middle of the connecting arm 2 from the top.
[0060] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, one end of the dustproof part 3 of the pedal bracket 100 is connected with at least one of the mounting seat 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4, and the other end is a free end extending along the length direction of the connecting arm 2. Referring to Figure 1 As shown in the figure, one end of the dustproof part 3 of the pedal bracket 100 is fixedly connected with the mounting seat 1, and the other end is a free end; the free end provides additional flexibility, allowing the component to move freely within a certain range and avoiding interference with other components of the pedal bracket 100. The free end of the dustproof part 3 extends along the length direction of the connecting arm 2 to cover the outer side of the connecting arm 2 to a greater extent.
[0061] The connection of the dustproof part 3 with the mounting seat 1 and / or the pedal connecting rod 4 can be fixed or adjustable to adapt to different installation requirements. Specifically, this connection can be achieved through bolts, buckles, magnetic attraction, or welding, etc. One end of the dustproof part 3 is designed as a free end for easy disassembly and replacement, so that maintenance can be quickly performed when it is worn or damaged, reducing maintenance time and cost.
[0062] Specifically, the dustproof part 3 can be designed with flexible materials such as rubber or silicone to facilitate installation and adapt to different connecting arm 2 shapes. The mounting seat 1, the connecting arm 2, the dustproof part 3, and the pedal connecting rod 4 can be made of high-strength metal materials such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel to ensure the strength and durability of the structure. These materials also help to reduce the overall weight and improve the fuel efficiency of the vehicle. The hinge points of the connecting arm 2 and the pedal connecting rod 4 can be made of wear-resistant materials such as bearing steel to reduce wear and prolong service life. The connecting arm 2 can be designed with a double-layer structure, with the outer layer being a protective layer and the inner layer being a load-bearing layer to improve load-bearing capacity and impact resistance. The mounting seat 1 can be designed with multiple mounting holes to adapt to the installation requirements of different vehicle models.
[0063] Alternatively, when the pedal bracket is in the first state, one end of the dustproof part is connected with one of the mounting seat 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4, and the free end of the dustproof part abuts against the other one of the mounting seat 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4. Specifically, the present utility model can be divided into a fully expanded state and a fully folded state, i.e., the first state and the second state. Specifically, referring to Figure 10 As shown in the figure, one end of the dustproof part 3 of the pedal bracket 100 is fixedly connected with the pedal connecting rod 4, and the other end is a free end; when the pedal bracket is in the fully expanded state (the first state), the free end of the dustproof part 3 abuts against the mounting seat 1. At this time, the length of the dustproof part 3 reaches a maximum value, covering the outer side of the connecting arm 2 to the maximum extent to avoid foreign matter from entering the pedal bracket.
[0064] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, the fixed end of the dustproof part 3 of the pedal bracket 100 connected with the mounting seat 1 and / or the pedal connecting rod 4 has a width greater than that of the free end of the dustproof part 3. Specifically, referring toFigure 10 As shown, the width d1 of the fixed end of the dustproof part 3 of the pedal bracket 100 connected with the mounting seat 1 and / or the pedal connecting rod 4 is greater than the width d2 of the free end of the dustproof part 3. By reducing the width of the free end, the size of the dustproof part can be reduced to avoid interference with other structures of the pedal bracket during movement.
[0065] Optionally, the free end edge of the dustproof part 3 of the pedal bracket 100 includes at least an arc segment. Specifically, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the free end edge of the dustproof part 3 is a smooth arc angle to provide maximum protection.
[0066] According to some embodiments of the present application, the dustproof part includes a first dustproof sheet 301 and a second dustproof sheet 302; one end of the first dustproof sheet 301 is connected with the mounting seat 1, and one end of the second dustproof sheet 302 is connected with the pedal connecting rod 4. Specifically, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the dustproof part 3 of the pedal bracket 100 of the embodiment of the present application is composed of two independent dustproof sheets 301 and 302, which improves the flexibility and coverage of the dustproof part. The first dustproof sheet 301 and the second dustproof sheet 302 can be independently connected with the mounting seat 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4, respectively, which allows the dustproof part 3 to be adjusted under different use conditions to adapt to different installation angles and positions. The design of the dustproof sheets 301 and 302 can ensure that they can cover the entire outer side of the connecting arm 2, thereby providing comprehensive protection against the entry of dirt, gravel and other foreign matter into the hinged gap.
[0067] Specifically, the connection of the first dustproof sheet 301 with the mounting seat 1 can be fixed or adjustable to adapt to different installation requirements. This connection can be achieved by means of bolts, buckles, magnetic attraction or welding, etc. The connection of the second dustproof sheet 302 with the pedal connecting rod 4 can also be fixed or adjustable to ensure that the dustproof sheet 302 can move with the movement of the pedal connecting rod 4 while maintaining coverage of the connecting arm 2.
[0068] Optionally, the dustproof sheets 301 and 302 can be designed to have a certain elasticity or flexibility, such as using rubber or plastic materials, so that they can better adapt to the changes in the movement state of the connecting arm 2, while maintaining their shape when subjected to external forces.
[0069] Optionally, when the pedal bracket 100 is in the second state (fully folded state), the free ends of the first dustproof sheet 301 and the second dustproof sheet 302 abut; and / or the free ends of the first dustproof sheet 301 and the second dustproof sheet 302 at least partially overlap. Specifically, refer to Figure 3As shown, the first dustproof sheet 301 and the second dustproof sheet 302 are designed to have a specific interaction to ensure that the outer side of the connecting arm 2 is still effectively protected from foreign matter such as mud, gravel, and the like even when the pedal bracket is folded up, preventing foreign matter from entering the hinged gap.
[0070] Optionally, the first dustproof sheet 301 is integrally formed with the mounting seat 1; and / or, the second dustproof sheet 302 is integrally formed with the pedal link 4. Specifically, through the integral molding technology, the first dustproof sheet 301 and the second dustproof sheet 302 can be formed in the same production process as the mounting seat 1 and the pedal link 4, which can reduce additional assembly steps and improve production efficiency.
[0071] According to some embodiments of the present application, the connecting arm 2 comprises at least a first connecting arm 21 and a second connecting arm 22; the dustproof part 3 is connected to at least one of the mounting seat 1 and the pedal link 4 and covers at least part of the outer side of the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22 to prevent foreign matter from entering the gap between the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22.
[0072] Specifically, to make the pedal bracket 100 have greater expansion degree, the pedal bracket 100 can include two connecting arms 2. Among them, the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22 can have different lengths and / or shapes to adapt to different installation angles and space requirements. Referring to Figures 4-5 As shown, the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22 are different in shape and length, and they are connected to the mounting seat 1 and the pedal link 4 through the hinge points, allowing rotation within a certain range to adapt to different use scenarios. The design of the dustproof part 3 cleverly covers and protects the outer side of the two connecting arms, thereby providing a comprehensive protection solution to prevent foreign matter from entering the gap between the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22.
[0073] According to some embodiments of the present application, one of the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22 is provided with a first limiting structure 801, and the other is provided with a first counterpart 802, and when the pedal is in the first state, the first limiting structure 801 and the first counterpart 802 cooperate to realize mechanical limiting; and / or, one of the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22 is provided with a second limiting structure 901, and the other is provided with a second counterpart 902, and when the pedal is in the second state, the second limiting structure and the second counterpart 902 cooperate to realize mechanical limiting.
[0074] Specifically, the pedal support 100 of the present application realizes accurate control of the pedal expansion and folding state through the carefully designed limiting structure and the matching part, and improves the operation stability and safety of the pedal support. The cooperation of the first limiting structure 801 and the first matching part 802, and the cooperation of the second limiting structure 901 and the second matching part 902, ensure the stability and positioning accuracy of the pedal support in the first state (fully expanded position) and the second state (fully folded position). The first limiting structure 801 and the second limiting structure 901 can be protrusions, grooves or other mechanical structures, which are designed to accurately cooperate with the corresponding matching parts (802, 902) to ensure the stability of the pedal support 100 in the fully expanded and fully folded positions.
[0075] Referring to FIG. 1, Figure 6 As shown, the first connecting arm 21 is provided with a groove, i.e. the first limiting structure 801; the second connecting arm 22 is provided with a protrusion matched with the groove 801, i.e. the first matching part 802; the first limiting structure 801 accurately cooperates with the first matching part 802 to ensure that the pedal support 100 is limited in the fully expanded state.
[0076] Referring to FIG. 2, Figures 4-5 As shown, the first connecting arm 21 is provided with a protrusion 901, i.e. the second limiting structure 901; the second connecting arm 22 is provided with a protrusion 902 matched with the protrusion 901, i.e. the second matching part 902; when the pedal support 100 is in the second state (fully folded state), the protrusion 901 on the first connecting arm 21 abuts against the protrusion 902 on the second connecting arm 22. The second limiting structure 901 accurately cooperates with the second matching part 902 to ensure that the pedal support 100 is limited in the fully expanded state.
[0077] When the pedal support 100 is converted from the first state to the second state, or vice versa, the cooperation of the limiting structure and the matching part provides smooth transition, reducing friction and wear during operation. Specifically, referring to FIG. 3, Figures 4-6 As shown, the limiting structure and the matching part on the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22 are smoothly transitioned, reducing friction and wear during the state conversion of the pedal support 100.
[0078] According to some embodiments of the present application, the pedal support 100 further comprises a connecting shaft 5; the two ends of the connecting arm 2 are respectively hinged with the mounting seat 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4 through the connecting shaft 5. Specifically, referring to FIG. 4, Figure 1As shown, the connecting shaft 5 includes at least a first connecting shaft 51 and a second connecting shaft 52, and the connecting arm 2, the mounting base 1 and the pedal link 4 are all provided with shaft holes 103 for the connecting shaft 5 to pass through; one end of the connecting arm 2 is hinged to the mounting base 1 through the first connecting shaft 51, and the other end of the connecting arm 2 is hinged to the pedal link 4 through the second connecting shaft 52. In the design of the pedal bracket 100 of the utility model, the connecting shaft 5 plays a key role, which allows the connecting arm 2 (the first connecting arm 21 and the second connecting arm 22) to be flexibly and stably hinged between the mounting base 1 and the pedal link 4. The hinge of the connecting shaft 5 with the mounting base 1 and the pedal link 4 can adopt bearings, needle bearings or spherical joints, etc. to provide smooth rotation and reduce friction. The design of the connecting shaft 5 takes into account the convenience of maintenance and replacement, which can be easily disassembled and reassembled if necessary.
[0079] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the pedal further comprises a shaft sleeve 6, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting shaft 5; the shaft sleeve 6 can be arranged at the shaft holes 103 at both ends of the connecting arm 2, the hinged end of the mounting base 1 and the hinged end of the pedal link 4, that is, the shaft sleeve 6 can be arranged at the end of the shaft hole 103; the shaft sleeve 6 is interference fitted with the shaft hole 103. Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 The design of the shaft sleeve 6 in the pedal bracket 100 of the utility model aims to enhance the stability and durability of the connecting shaft 5, while providing smoother hinge movement. The main role of the shaft sleeve 6 is to reduce the direct friction between the connecting shaft 5 and the shaft hole 103, by providing a smooth contact surface, reducing wear and tear, and prolonging the service life of the connecting shaft and related components. The interference fit between the shaft sleeve 6 and the shaft hole 103 means that the shaft sleeve is designed to be slightly larger than the diameter of the shaft hole, which can ensure that the shaft sleeve is fixed in the shaft hole and reduce the axial clearance, thereby improving the rigidity and stability of the overall structure. The shaft sleeve 6 can be made of wear-resistant materials such as bronze, nylon or other engineering plastics, which have good self-lubricating properties and wear resistance, and are suitable for applications that require reduced friction and wear.
[0080] Further, the shaft sleeve 6 is provided with a flange surface 601. It can also prevent mud and sand from entering the connecting aperture 602 of the shaft sleeve 6 from the inside, and also plays a limiting role in installation. Specifically, as shown in Figure 7As shown, the design of the flange face 601 can effectively prevent foreign matter such as sand from entering the connecting gap 602 between the shaft sleeve 6 and the shaft hole 103, protecting the connecting shaft 5 from erosion and wear by sand. The flange face 601 also serves as a limiting function during installation, ensuring the precise positioning of the shaft sleeve 6 during installation, preventing the shaft sleeve 6 from moving axially or circumferentially in the shaft hole 103, and thus ensuring the tight fit and correct alignment between the connecting shaft 5 and the shaft hole 103. The flange face 601 increases the contact area of the shaft sleeve 6, thereby improving the stability and structural strength of the connection with the connecting arm 2, the mounting seat 1, or the pedal link 4.
[0081] According to some embodiments of the present application, the pedal further comprises a dust cover 7; the shaft hole 103 of the mounting seat 1 and / or the pedal link 4 is provided with a mounting hole 102 on the side away from the connecting arm 2, and the mounting hole 102 is used to mount the dust cover 7. The dust cover 7 can effectively prevent dust and other foreign matter from entering the connecting gap 501 between the shaft sleeve 6 and the connecting shaft 5, so that the connecting shaft will not accelerate wear and produce abnormal noise when rotating.
[0082] Specifically, the dust cover 7 introduced in the pedal bracket 100 of the present application aims to provide additional protection for the connecting part of the shaft sleeve 6 and the connecting shaft 5, to ensure its reliable operation in various environments. The dust cover 7 is designed to tightly cover the side of the shaft hole 103 of the mounting seat 1 and / or the pedal link 4 away from the connecting arm 2, to form a sealed space and effectively prevent dust and other foreign matter from entering. The dust cover 7 is fixed to the mounting seat 1 and / or the pedal link 4 through the mounting hole 102. The mounting hole 102 is specially designed to receive the dust cover 7, ensuring its correct positioning and fixation. The edge of the dust cover 7 can be designed with a rubber ring or similar sealing element to improve its sealing performance and prevent dust and moisture from entering the connecting gap 501 between the shaft sleeve 6 and the connecting shaft 5. The design of the dust cover 7 takes into account the convenience of maintenance and replacement. If the dust cover 7 is damaged or needs to be cleaned, it can be easily removed and replaced without the need for complex tools or procedures. The material selection of the dust cover 7 (such as plastic, metal, or rubber) aims to ensure its durability in long-term use, capable of withstanding environmental factors such as temperature changes and humidity.
[0083] Further, the dust cover 7 comprises a main body part 701 and at least one protruding part 702 arranged on the outer periphery of the main body part 701. The protruding part 702 allows the dust cover 7 to be easily removed and replaced without the need for complex tools or procedures. Specifically, the protruding part 702 is designed in a shape that is easy to grasp with fingers, such as a circular protrusion, a ring-shaped protrusion, a rectangular protrusion, or a wrench-shaped protrusion, allowing users to manually remove and install the dust cover 7 without tools. For example, Figures 1-2As shown, the dust cover 7 includes a main body portion 701 and a plurality of protruding portions 702 arranged on the outer periphery of the main body portion 701. The protruding portions 702 allow the user to pry the dust cover 7 directly with hands or common tools (such as coins, screwdrivers, etc.), thereby achieving quick disassembly. This design reduces the dependence on professional tools, making maintenance more convenient and efficient. The material and surface treatment of the protruding portions 702 are selected to provide a good coefficient of friction, ensuring that the user can firmly grasp the protruding portions 702 for disassembly and installation even in dusty or oily conditions.
[0084] Further, the main body portion 701 includes a boss structure that is interference fit with the mounting hole 102. Specifically, referring to Figure 8 As shown, the boss structure is a part of the main body portion 701 that protrudes from the surface of the main body portion and is interference fit with the mounting hole 102. This design increases the contact area between the dust cover 7 and the mounting seat 1 or the pedal link 4, thereby improving the stability and fastening force of the connection.
[0085] Further, the main body portion 701 includes a threaded structure that is threadedly connected with the mounting hole 102. Specifically, referring to Figure 9 As shown, the threaded structure is a part of the main body portion 701 that is threadedly connected with the threaded structure on the mounting hole 102, thereby improving the stability and fastening force of the connection.
[0086] According to some embodiments of the present application, the pedal link 4 is further provided with an avoidance slot 401, and the maximum distance L1 and the minimum distance L2 between the side wall of the avoidance slot 401 and the connecting arm 2 satisfy: 0mm≤L1-L2≤5mm, L2≥13mm. Referring to Figure 4 As shown, the pedal link 4 is further provided with an avoidance slot 401, and the connecting arm 2 includes a first connecting arm 21 and a second connecting arm 22, wherein the maximum distance L1 and the minimum distance L2 between the side wall of the avoidance slot 401 and the second connecting arm 22 satisfy: 0mm≤L1-L2≤5mm, L2≥13mm. The maximum and minimum distances between the side wall of the avoidance slot 401 and the second connecting arm 22 within 5mm can avoid the funnel-shaped structure of the upper chamber being wide and the lower chamber being narrow between the links, and avoid foreign matter being stuck in the gap. The minimum distance L2 being greater than 13mm can keep the movement gap between the links. During the movement of the pedal, if foreign matter enters the gap between the pedal link 4 and the connecting arm 2, it will cause extrusion damage to the electric pedal bracket when it is retracted, and will also produce an abnormal noise, and even the electric side pedal will not work.
[0087] Specifically, the avoiding groove 401 designed on the pedal connecting rod 4 not only ensures the clearance requirement of the connecting arm 2 in motion, but also avoids the problems that the funnel-shaped structure may bring. The design of the avoiding groove 401 ensures the clearance required when the connecting arm 2 moves on the pedal connecting rod 4, and this clearance allows the connecting arm 2 to move freely without friction or interference, thereby ensuring the smooth movement of the pedal support 100. The design of the avoiding groove 401 avoids the funnel-shaped structure with a wide upper cavity and a narrow lower cavity, which may capture foreign matters such as stones during the pedal movement, resulting in extrusion damage to the electric pedal support when the pedal is retracted. By precisely controlling the size of the avoiding groove 401, it is ensured that the range of L1-L2 is between 0mm and 5mm, which can prevent foreign matters such as stones from being stuck in the gap and avoid damage to the electric pedal support when retracted, while also reducing the occurrence of abnormal noise.
[0088] Further, at least part of the avoiding groove 401 is arc-shaped, and the distance between the arc-shaped part of the avoiding groove 401 and the connecting arm 2 is equal and uniform. The arc-shaped avoiding groove achieves the movement clearance between the connecting rods while avoiding the funnel-shaped structure with a wide upper cavity and a narrow lower cavity to prevent foreign matters from entering. Specifically, referring to the arc-shaped design part of the avoiding groove 401 as shown in Figure 5 The arc-shaped design part of the avoiding groove 401 is designed to maintain a constant distance from the connecting arm 2 (the second connecting arm 22), and this uniform distance helps to ensure that foreign matters will not be stuck in the avoiding groove, ensuring the stability and consistency during movement, and avoiding damage to the electric pedal support during pedal movement or retraction.
[0089] According to the second aspect of the utility model, a pedal device 200 is provided, the pedal support 100 comprises the pedal support 100 according to the first aspect of the utility model, and the drive device is used to drive the pedal support 100 to move, so that the pedal support 100 is switched between the first state and the second state.
[0090] According to the pedal device of the utility model, by using the pedal support 100 according to the first aspect of the utility model, the pedal support 100 is moved by the drive device, the automatic unfolding or automatic retraction of the pedal can be realized, and the user is facilitated to get on or off the vehicle. By arranging the dustproof part 3 covering the outer side of the connecting arm 2 and connected with at least one of the mounting seat 1 and the pedal connecting rod 4, foreign matters such as mud and stones can be isolated, abnormal noise and jamming of the pedal support can be avoided, the failure rate of the pedal device can be reduced, and the use experience of the user can be improved.
