Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle parts technology, specifically to a sealing structure for electric pedals. Background Technology

[0002] A running board is a step installed on the side of a vehicle to facilitate passenger entry and exit. Commonly found in SUVs and MPVs, it is also called a side step. There are two types of running boards: fixed and electric. Electric running boards are increasingly becoming a popular choice for car owners. They automatically extend to a set limit position when the door is opened and automatically retract under the vehicle when the door is closed, saving space and keeping the vehicle neater.

[0003] CN219838491U discloses a swing-type electric side pedal device. The bottom of the active swing arm is movably connected to a rear fixed shaft, and the bottom of the driven swing arm is movably connected to a front fixed shaft, so as to swing the movable frame back and forth to the fixed frame and drive the movable frame to a drive motor. The pedal is fixedly installed on the top front end of the movable frame. Since car pedals are installed under the vehicle, in poor road conditions, mud and water can easily enter or adhere to the relevant components, increasing the resistance of moving parts such as the front and rear fixed shafts, and even causing water to enter electrical components, resulting in damage to the relevant components or the vehicle.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0029] Example 1 provides a sealing structure for an electric pedal 1, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the device includes a base 21 and a connecting shaft 24. A first cavity 261 is provided within the base 21. A first opening 221 communicating with the first cavity 261 is provided on the upper side of the base 21. A mounting gasket 251 is provided on the first opening 221. The connecting shaft 24 is mounted on a mounting plate 22 on the lower side of the first cavity 261. One end of the connecting rod of the electric pedal 1 is mounted on the connecting shaft 24. A second opening 262 cooperating with the connecting rod is provided on one side of the first cavity 261. A flexible baffle 27 is provided on the second opening 262. The connecting rod includes a first connecting rod 41 and a second connecting rod 42.

[0030] After the base 21 is installed under the vehicle, the first opening 221 is sealed by the mounting gasket 251; Figure 1 and Figure 2 The flexible baffle 27 blocks the second opening 262, reducing the amount of debris entering through the second opening 262, and does not excessively increase the displacement resistance of the connecting rod, thus reducing the possibility of debris and water entering the base 21 under poor road conditions.

[0031] The flexible baffle 27 can be fixed to the edge of the second opening 262 by adhesive or bolts.

[0032] like Figure 4 A limit cover 242 is provided on the upper side of the connecting shaft 24, and the upper end surface of the limit cover 242 is lower than the upper end surface of the base 21. A bearing 241 is provided on the mounting plate 22, and the connecting shaft 24 is installed in the inner ring of the bearing 241.

[0033] More specifically, a first base 26 is provided on one side of the base 21, and a second opening 262 is provided on one side of the first base 26. The second opening 262 limits the movement position and width of the connecting rod. At the same time, the first base 26 provides partial support for the connecting rod, improving its stability. The first base 26 can be welded to the base 21, or it can be designed as an integral part with the base 21.

[0034] The upper end of the base 21 is provided with a mounting part 25 for mounting to the bottom of the vehicle, and the mounting shim 251 covers the mounting part 25.

[0035] Example 2, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sealing structure is deployed on the driven seat 3 of the electric pedal 1.

[0036] In Example 3, the sealing structure is deployed on the active seat 2 of the electric pedal 1. Unlike the driven seat 3, the active seat 2 has a drive motor 23 on one side of the base 21. The output end of the drive motor 23 is connected to the connecting shaft 24. The drive motor 23 drives the connecting rod to rotate through the connecting shaft 24, thereby causing the side pedal 5 to extend or retract.

[0037] like Figure 5 A socket 231 is provided on one side of the drive motor 23 for connecting to an external control model, power module or host computer.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 The electric pedal 1 specifically includes a side pedal 5. One end of the first connecting rod 41 is mounted on the connecting shaft 24 of the driving seat 2, and the other end is hinged to one side of the side pedal 5. One end of the second connecting rod 42 is mounted on the connecting shaft of the driven seat 3, and the other end is hinged to the other side of the side pedal 5, forming a quadrilateral or near-quadrilateral structure.

[0039] Among them, the upper side of the side pedal 5 is provided with photoresistors 52, anti-slip textures 53 and decorative light strips 59 at intervals.

[0040] This invention, through a sealing structure, ensures the airtightness of the base 21 of the driving seat 2 and the driven seat 3, preventing or reducing the entry of debris into the base 21 and improving the safety and reliability of the electric pedal 1. The first opening 221 facilitates the installation and assembly of the electric pedal 1, and after installation under the vehicle, the sealing of the first opening 221 is ensured by the mounting gasket 251. The displacement of the connecting rod is limited by the first base 26 and its second opening 262; the second opening 262 is protected by a flexible baffle 27 without excessively increasing the displacement resistance of the connecting rod.

[0041] Additionally, lubricating oil can be applied to the lower end of the flexible baffle 27 to further reduce displacement resistance. The flexible baffle 27 can be made of rubber, silicone rubber, plastic, or other materials.

[0042] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
