Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automotive parts, and in particular to a pedal device and vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Pedal systems are popular because they automatically extend when the door opens to assist passengers in entering and exiting the vehicle, and automatically retract when the door closes to ensure vehicle maneuverability and aesthetics. Existing pedal systems typically incorporate anti-slip blocks / strips on their surface to enhance slip resistance. These blocks / strips are mostly embedded within the pedal itself, but their connection to the pedal body is often weak. Repeated use and exposure to high-pressure water during car washes can cause them to loosen and detach from the panel, reducing slip resistance and compromising stability. Some pedal systems use a slot and hook structure to secure the pedal to the anti-slip blocks / strips, improving stability, but this method is cumbersome and difficult to assemble. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present application provides a pedal device and vehicle that can solve the problems of unstable anti-slip performance and high assembly difficulty of existing pedal devices.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, one technical solution adopted in this application is: to provide a pedal device, the pedal device comprising: a mounting base; a telescopic rod located below the mounting base; a pedal body fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod, including a foot pedal surface; and an anti-slip panel fixedly connected to the foot pedal surface of the pedal body by an adhesive, wherein the anti-slip panel is provided with a plurality of anti-slip blocks.

[0005] In some embodiments, the anti-slip panel is bent around the periphery toward the foot pedal surface to form a first fixing part and a second fixing part; the first fixing part extends along a first direction, and the second fixing part extends along a second direction; the foot pedal surface is provided with a first groove on both the side near the telescopic rod and the side away from the telescopic rod, and the first groove extends along the first direction; wherein, a portion of the first fixing part is engaged with the first groove; the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0006] In some embodiments, the pedal device further includes an end cap for covering both ends of the pedal body; a second groove is provided on the side of the end cap near the pedal body; wherein the second fixing part and a portion of the first fixing part are engaged in the second groove.

[0007] In some embodiments, along the first direction, the distance between two adjacent anti-slip blocks is greater than or equal to 3.5 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm; along the second direction, the distance between two adjacent anti-slip blocks is greater than or equal to 3.5 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm; along the first direction, the length of the anti-slip block is greater than or equal to 8 mm and less than or equal to 12 mm; along the second direction, the length of the anti-slip block is greater than or equal to 8 mm and less than or equal to 12 mm.

[0008] In some embodiments, the anti-slip block is integrally stamped onto the anti-slip panel.

[0009] In some embodiments, the pedal device further includes: a first swing arm, one end of which is hinged to the mounting base at a first hinge point, and the other end of which is hinged to the telescopic rod at a second hinge point; a second swing arm, one end of which is hinged to the mounting base at a third hinge point, and the other end of which is hinged to the telescopic rod at a fourth hinge point; wherein, when the pedal device is in the retracted state, along a third direction, the distance between the two hinge points that are furthest apart—the first, second, third, and fourth hinge points—is greater than 50 mm and less than or equal to 70 mm; along a second direction, the distance between the two hinge points that are furthest apart—the first, second, third, and fourth hinge points—is greater than 98 mm and less than or equal to 120 mm; wherein, the third direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0010] In some embodiments, the pedal device further includes a buffer member disposed between the first swing arm and the second swing arm, and fixed to the first swing arm or the second swing arm.

[0011] In some embodiments, the pedal device further includes a drive mechanism for driving the first swing arm and / or the second swing arm.

[0012] In some embodiments, the pedal device further includes an indicator light located at one end of the bottom of the pedal body.

[0013] Another technical solution adopted in this application is: to provide a vehicle, the vehicle including the pedal device described in any of the above claims, wherein the mounting seat in the pedal device is fixed to the chassis of the vehicle.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows: Unlike existing technologies, the pedal device provided in this application includes a mounting base; a telescopic rod located below the mounting base; a pedal body fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod, including a foot surface; and an anti-slip panel fixedly connected to the foot surface of the pedal body by adhesive, wherein the anti-slip panel is provided with several anti-slip blocks.

Fixing the anti-slip panel to the foot surface with adhesive simplifies the installation process and reduces assembly difficulty. In this way, the pedal device has low assembly difficulty and relatively stable anti-slip performance. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The pedal device provided in this application includes a mounting base; a telescopic rod located below the mounting base; a pedal body fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod, including a footrest surface; and an anti-slip panel fixedly connected to the footrest surface of the pedal body by adhesive, wherein the anti-slip panel is provided with a plurality of anti-slip blocks. In this technical solution, by providing anti-slip blocks on the anti-slip panel, the problems of insufficient connection strength and unstable anti-slip performance that occurred when anti-slip blocks were individually embedded into the footrest surface are avoided.

In this way, the pedal device has low assembly difficulty and relatively stable anti-slip performance.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the vehicle structure provided in some embodiments of this application. The vehicle 1000 provided in this application may include, but is not limited to, the pedal device 100. When the pedal device 100 is in the deployed state, the pedal body 130 can form a stepped structure with the side skirt of the vehicle 1000 to facilitate the user getting on and off the vehicle. When the pedal device 100 is in the retracted state, the pedal body 130 in the pedal device 100 fits against the side skirt of the vehicle 1000 to maintain the neat and smooth appearance of the vehicle 1000 without affecting the vehicle 1000's passability.

[0028] Please refer to the following: Figure 1-4 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the pedal device provided in some embodiments of this application when it is in the retracted state. Figure 3 This is an exploded view of the pedal device provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 4 yes Figure 3A partially enlarged schematic diagram at point A. The pedal device 100 provided in this application includes, but is not limited to, a mounting base 110, a telescopic rod 120, and a pedal body 130. Specifically, the telescopic rod 120 is located below the mounting base 110 and is used to support the pedal body 130 and adjust the spatial position of the pedal body 130. Specifically, the telescopic rod 120 allows the pedal body 130 to extend or retract relative to the mounting base 110. The pedal body 130 is fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod 120, providing a platform for drivers and passengers to step on, facilitating their entry and exit from the vehicle 1000. The pedal body 130 includes a footrest surface M. An anti-slip panel 140 is fixedly connected to the footrest surface M of the pedal body 130 by adhesive. In this embodiment, double-sided adhesive is applied to the footrest surface M, and the anti-slip panel 140 is bonded to the footrest surface M by double-sided adhesive. In other embodiments, a layer of adhesive is uniformly coated on the footrest surface M, and the anti-slip panel 140 is bonded to the footrest surface M by adhesive. The anti-slip panel 140 is provided with several anti-slip blocks 141 to increase friction when the user steps on it and prevent slipping. In this embodiment, the anti-slip blocks 141 are manufactured on the anti-slip panel 140 using an integral stamping process to ensure the integrity and firmness between the anti-slip blocks 141 and the anti-slip panel 140, avoiding the problem of detachment due to weak connection. The anti-slip blocks 141 are raised structures of a certain height formed on the anti-slip panel 140 in the direction away from the foot surface M, so that they can effectively engage with the sole of the shoe when the rider steps on them, achieving an anti-slip effect. It should be noted that the shape, size, and distribution of the anti-slip blocks 141 can be optimized according to actual usage requirements, such as using circular, square, strip, or diamond shapes to meet different anti-slip requirements.

[0029] Furthermore, the anti-slip panel 140 is bent around its perimeter toward the foot pedal surface M, forming a first fixing part 142 and a second fixing part 143. The first fixing part 142 extends along a first direction, and the second fixing part 143 extends along a second direction. A first groove 131 is provided on both the side of the foot pedal surface M near the telescopic rod 120 and the side away from the telescopic rod 120, and the first groove 131 extends along the first direction. A portion of the first fixing part 142 engages with the first groove 131. It is understood that the shape and size of the first groove 131 are adapted to the first fixing part 142. Specifically, during installation, a portion of the first fixing part 142 can be accurately embedded and fixed within the first groove 131 to achieve a fixed connection between the anti-slip panel 140 and the pedal body 130 in the first direction. This not only improves the installation efficiency of the pedal device 100 but also enhances the stability of the connection between the anti-slip panel 140 and the pedal body 130, ensuring that the anti-slip panel 140 will not shift along the second direction due to external forces during long-term use.

[0030] Furthermore, the pedal device 100 provided in this application also includes an end cap 132. The end cap 132 covers both ends of the pedal body 130 to prevent dust, mud, and other debris from entering the pedal body 130 and causing abnormal noise. A second groove 1321 is provided on the side of the end cap 132 closest to the pedal body 130, and a second fixing part 143 and a portion of the first fixing part 142 are engaged in the second groove 1321. It is understood that the shape and size of the second groove 1321 are adapted to the second fixing part 143 of the anti-slip panel 140 and the portion of the first fixing part 142 that is not engaged with the first groove 131. Specifically, during installation, a portion of the first fixing part 142 and the second fixing part 143 can be accurately embedded and fixed within the second groove 1321 to achieve a fixed connection between the anti-slip panel 140 and the pedal body 130 in the second direction. In this way, the connection stability between the anti-slip panel 140 and the pedal body 130 is further enhanced, and the anti-slip surface and the pedal body 130 are fully fixed. This ensures that the anti-slip panel 140 will not be displaced in the first direction due to external force during long-term use, and further improves the anti-slip stability of the pedal device 100.

[0031] In this embodiment, the anti-slip block 141 adopts a square structure. Further, along the first direction, the distance between two adjacent anti-slip blocks 141 is greater than or equal to 3.5mm and less than or equal to 5mm. Specifically, along the first direction, the distance between two adjacent anti-slip blocks 141 can be 3.5mm, 3.7mm, 3.98mm, 4.15mm, 4.32mm, 4.44mm, 4.63mm, 4.8mm, and 5mm, etc. In this embodiment, along the first direction, the distance between two adjacent anti-slip blocks 141 is 4.08mm. Along the second direction, the distance between two adjacent anti-slip blocks 141 is greater than or equal to 3.5mm and less than or equal to 5mm. Specifically, along the second direction, the distance between two adjacent anti-slip blocks 141 can be 3.5mm, 3.7mm, 3.98mm, 4.15mm, 4.32mm, 4.44mm, 4.63mm, 4.8mm, and 5mm, etc. In this embodiment, the distance between two adjacent anti-slip blocks 141 along the second direction is 4.71 mm. This ensures that there is sufficient contact area between the anti-slip block 141 and the sole of the shoe when the driver or passenger steps on it, avoiding a feeling of being pinched by the sole due to too small a gap or insufficient anti-slip effect due to too large a gap.

[0032] Along the first direction, the length of the anti-slip block 141 is greater than or equal to 8 mm and less than or equal to 12 mm. Specifically, along the first direction, the length of the anti-slip block 141 can be 8 mm, 8.3 mm, 8.42 mm, 8.66 mm, 8.87 mm, 8.9 mm, 9.1 mm, 9.35 mm, 9.8 mm, 10.6 mm, 11.2 mm, 11.6 mm, and 12 mm, etc. In this embodiment, along the first direction, the length of the anti-slip block 141 is 10.07 mm. Along the second direction, the length of the anti-slip block 141 is greater than or equal to 8 mm and less than or equal to 12 mm. Specifically, along the second direction, the length of the anti-slip block 141 can be 8 mm, 8.3 mm, 8.42 mm, 8.66 mm, 8.87 mm, 8.9 mm, 9.1 mm, 9.35 mm, 9.8 mm, 10.6 mm, 11.2 mm, 11.6 mm, and 12 mm, etc. In this embodiment, the length of the anti-slip block 141 along the second direction is 10.07 mm. In this way, the anti-slip block 141 provides sufficient friction when the rider steps on it, without being too long and affecting the overall flatness and comfort of the foot pedal surface M.

[0033] Furthermore, the pedal device 100 also includes a first swing arm 150 and a second swing arm 160. One end of the first swing arm 150 is hinged to the mounting base 110 at a first hinge point D1, and the other end of the first swing arm 150 is hinged to the telescopic rod 120 at a second hinge point D2. One end of the second swing arm 160 is hinged to the mounting base 110 at a third hinge point D3, and the other end of the second swing arm 160 is hinged to the telescopic rod 120 at a fourth hinge point D4. When the pedal device 100 is in the retracted state, the distance between the two hinge points furthest apart along the third direction (first hinge point D1, second hinge point D2, third hinge point D3, and fourth hinge point D4) is greater than 50mm and less than or equal to 70mm. This, to a certain extent, increases the distance between the pedal device 100 in the retracted state and the ground, preventing the pedal device 100 from scraping against the ground when the vehicle 1000 is in motion. Specifically, when the pedal device 100 is in the retracted state, the distances between the two hinge points furthest apart along the third direction—first hinge point D1, second hinge point D2, third hinge point D3, and fourth hinge point D4—can be 51mm, 53mm, 55mm, 58mm, 60mm, 63mm, 66mm, 69mm, and 70mm, respectively. In this embodiment, when the pedal device 100 is in the retracted state, the two hinge points furthest apart along the third direction—first hinge point D1, second hinge point D2, third hinge point D3, and fourth hinge point D4—are third hinge point D3 and fourth hinge point D4, and the distance between them along the third direction is 50.31mm. When the pedal device 100 is in the retracted state, the distance between the two furthest hinge points (first hinge point D1, second hinge point D2, third hinge point D3, and fourth hinge point D4) in the second direction is greater than 98mm and less than or equal to 120mm. This ensures that the overall width of the pedal body 130 in the second direction is controlled within 120mm when it is in the retracted state, reducing the space occupied by the pedal device 100 in the second direction of the vehicle 1000. Specifically, when the pedal device 100 is in the retracted state, the distance between the two furthest hinge points (first hinge point D1, second hinge point D2, third hinge point D3, and fourth hinge point D4) in the second direction can be 99mm, 100mm, 105mm, 108mm, 110mm, 113mm, 115mm, 117mm, 118mm, and 120mm, etc. In this embodiment, when the pedal device 100 is in the retracted state, the two hinge points that are furthest apart along the second direction are the third hinge point D3 and the fourth hinge point D4, and the distance between them in the second direction is 111.58 mm.

[0034] Furthermore, the pedal device 100 also includes a buffer 170. The buffer 170 is disposed between the first swing arm 150 and the second swing arm 160, and is fixed to either the first swing arm 150 or the second swing arm 160, to absorb a portion of the load between the first swing arm 150 and the second swing arm 160 when the pedal device 100 is fully retracted or fully extended, thereby extending the service life of the pedal device 100. In this embodiment, the buffer 170 is fixed to the second swing arm 160.

[0035] Furthermore, the pedal device 100 also includes a drive device 180, which is used to drive the first swing arm 150 and / or the second swing arm 160. In this embodiment, the drive device 180 is a motor, which is connected to the second swing arm 160 to drive the second swing arm 160, and then move in coordination with the first swing arm 150 to drive the telescopic rod 120 to extend or retract relative to the mounting base 110.

[0036] Furthermore, the pedal device 100 also includes an indicator light 190, which is located at one end of the bottom of the pedal body 130. This indicator light provides a light source for drivers and passengers at night or in low-light conditions, facilitating their entry and exit from the vehicle and improving the safety performance of the pedal device 100. In this embodiment, a lampshade 191 is also fitted over the indicator light 190 to protect it.

[0037] The pedal device provided in this application includes a mounting base 110; a telescopic rod 120 located below the mounting base 110; a pedal body 130 fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod 120, including a foot surface M; and an anti-slip panel 140 fixedly connected to the foot surface M of the pedal body 130 by adhesive, wherein the anti-slip panel 140 is provided with a plurality of anti-slip blocks 141. In this technical solution, by providing anti-slip blocks 141 on the anti-slip panel 140, the problems of insufficient connection strength and unstable anti-slip performance that occurred when the anti-slip blocks 141 were individually embedded into the foot surface M are avoided. By fixing the anti-slip panel 140 to the foot surface M with adhesive, the installation process is simplified and the assembly difficulty is reduced. In this way, the pedal device 100 has low assembly difficulty and relatively stable anti-slip performance.

[0038] The above description is only a part of the embodiments of this application and does not limit the scope of protection of this application.
