AI Technical Summary
Traditional electric car pedals have an abrupt visual appearance and a high risk of scratches. Furthermore, when hidden and stored, the small flip angle means that the pedal surface cannot fully conform to the car body.
The pedal is designed with a combination of a half gear, a moving toothed plate, a reversing gear, and a reversing toothed plate, and is driven by a motor. This allows for the pedal to be retracted and rotated at a large angle. The engagement of the half gear and the moving toothed plate causes the pedal surface to unfold or retract, while the linkage between the reversing gear and the reversing toothed plate enables the pedal to rotate at a large angle.
The pedals can be hidden and stored away, are easy to operate, have a large flip angle, and can fit perfectly with the vehicle body, avoiding visual obtrusion and the risk of scratches.

[0028] Example 1
[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a folding bracket assembly for a retractable electric pedal, comprising:
[0030] A loading chassis 1 is provided with a motor drive shaft 2 at the left end of the inner cavity of the loading chassis 1. Half gears 103 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the outer surface of the motor drive shaft 2. L-shaped guide plates 102 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the inner cavity of the loading chassis 1. A mountain-shaped moving seat 106 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the L-shaped guide plate 102. Connecting blocks 109 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the left side of the mountain-shaped moving seat 106. A moving frame plate 104 is fixedly connected to the left side of the connecting block 109. Moving toothed plates 105 that mesh with half gears 103 are fixedly installed on the top and bottom of the inner side of the moving frame plate 104.
[0031] An L-shaped movable plate 107 slides on the inner surface of the middle of the mountain-shaped movable seat 106. A spring 108 is fixedly connected between one side of the L-shaped movable plate 107 and the middle of the right side of the mountain-shaped movable seat 106. A support frame 5 is fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the bottom of the mountain-shaped movable seat 106. A rotating shaft 302 is movably connected to the right end of the inner side of the support frame 5.
[0032] A connecting plate 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom left end of the L-shaped movable plate 107. A flipping toothed plate 301 is fixedly connected to the right side of the connecting plate 3. A flipping gear 303 that meshes with the flipping toothed plate 301 is fixedly connected to the middle end of the outer surface of the rotating shaft 302.
[0033] The two L-shaped guide plates 102 are symmetrically arranged, and the inner surface of the L-shaped guide plate 102 is provided with a movable groove. The top of the movable frame plate 104 is attached to the top of the loading base 1. Both the front and rear ends of the outer surface of the rotating shaft 302 are fixedly connected with connectors 401, and a pedal surface 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the connector 401.
[0034] This technical solution: By setting up the mounting base 1, the bracket assembly can be installed in the usage position. Then, the external drive motor, along with the reducer and coupling, is fixedly connected to the motor drive shaft 2. When it is necessary to unfold the pedal surface 4, after receiving a signal, the external drive motor will drive the motor drive shaft 2 to rotate via the reducer and coupling. Figure 2-5 As shown, when the motor drive shaft 2 drives the half gear 103 to mesh and rotate with the moving toothed plate 105 on the top inner side of the moving frame plate 104, it can drive the mountain-shaped moving seat 106 to slide to the right on the outer surface of the L-shaped guide plate 102 via the moving frame plate 104 and the connecting block 109. When the mountain-shaped moving seat 106 moves, it will drive the rotating shaft 302 and the pedal surface 4 to move to the right via the bearing frame 5. When the mountain-shaped moving seat 106 moves, it will drive the L-shaped movable plate 107 to contact the inner wall of the right end of the loading base 1. And due to the restriction of the inner wall of the right end of the loading base 1, it will... As the L-shaped movable plate 107 slides on the inner surface of the mountain-shaped movable seat 106, it compresses the spring 108. With the L-shaped movable plate 107 remaining in place and the support frame 5 moving to the right, and due to the connecting plate 3 being fixedly connected to the bottom of the L-shaped movable plate 107, the flipping gear 303 can travel on top of the flipping toothed plate 301. The rotating flipping gear 303 can drive the connecting head 401 and the pedal surface 4 to flip outwards via the rotating shaft 302. After the pedal surface 4 is horizontally unfolded, the external drive motor stops working. After the use of plate 4 is completed, the external drive motor continues to work after receiving the signal. At this time, the motor drive shaft 2 will drive the half gear 103 to continue meshing and rotating with the moving toothed plate 105 at the bottom of the inner side of the moving frame plate 104. The moving frame plate 104 and the connecting block 109 drive the mountain-shaped moving seat 106 to slide to the left on the outer surface of the L-shaped guide plate 102. The mountain-shaped moving seat 106 will drive the support frame 5, the rotating shaft 302 and the pedal surface 4 to move to the right. When the mountain-shaped moving seat 106 moves, it is affected by the compressed spring 108, and the L-shaped moving plate 1 07 will slide on the inner surface of the mountain-shaped moving seat 106 to reset. At this time, the position of the L-shaped movable plate 107 remains unchanged while the support frame 5 moves to the left, so that the flip gear 303 can travel on the top of the flip gear plate 301. The rotating flip gear 303 can drive the connector 401 and the pedal surface 4 to flip inward and store through the rotating shaft 302. After the pedal surface 4 is in a vertical state, the L-shaped movable plate 107 moves synchronously with the mountain-shaped moving seat 106, and then the vertical pedal surface 4 can move to the left and enter the right end of the loading base frame 1 for concealment.
[0035] It should be noted that, due to the cooperation of the half gear 103 and the movable toothed plate 105, as well as the flip gear 303 and the flip toothed plate 301, a sealed protective shell is provided on the outside of each of them to prevent the entry and interference of external mud, sand, dust and water. This is prior art known to those skilled in the art, and therefore is not shown in the figure.
[0036] Example 2
[0037] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-5 As shown, the lower end of the loading chassis 1 is provided with stabilizing guide grooves 101 on both the front and rear sides. A stabilizing slide plate 503 that slides in the stabilizing guide groove 101 is fixedly connected to one side of the upper end of the support frame 5. An L-shaped reinforcement member 501 is fixedly connected between the bottom right end of the stabilizing slide plate 503 and the support frame 5. A limiting block 502 is fixedly connected between the right side of the L-shaped reinforcement member 501 and the support frame 5, and the upper end of the limiting block 502 has an arc-shaped structure.
[0038] This technical solution: By setting the stabilizing guide groove 101, the stability of the support frame 5 during movement is ensured when the stabilizing slide plate 503 slides inside it. With the assistance of the L-shaped reinforcement 501 and the limiting block 502, the support strength of the support frame 5 itself can be improved. In addition, the setting of the limiting block 502 can limit the position of the flipped-out pedal surface 4 and enhance its support capacity.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
