1 TARIFF DEVELOPMENT OF AN INTERNAL SPRING MECHANISM FOOTRESTS FOR VEHICLES Technical Area 5 The invention relates to public transportation vehicles used in passenger transport, such as buses, minibuses, subways, trains, airplanes, ships, etc. in transportation vehicles, located under the seats, which adjusts the passenger's seating position. the footrest, which simplifies and increases comfort, is made easy to use and economical. It relates to an improvement regarding its introduction. State of the Art Today, passenger transportation is carried out using buses, minibuses, subways, trains, airplanes, ships, etc. passengers should adjust their leg position to suit the journey on public transportation. fixed to the base of the seats to ensure passenger comfort and enhance travel comfort. Footrest pedals are used. In the known state of the technique, the footrest is 15. The pedals are integrated with the footrest, or in some models, the center body and chassis are separate. They are produced in two or three parts, including the connecting piece. Their general working principle is: Considered as a whole, the footrest's main structure connects to the chassis in the under-seat section. Once connected, the downward-extending body and footrest are ready for use. The use begins when the passenger places their foot on the footrest. With the current technology, 20 The footrest can be raised or lowered to suit the passenger's height or foot reach. It can be adjusted according to the distance. This purpose is achieved through the footrest's internal mechanism. A multi-stage locking system is used. The footrest reaches its furthest distance at the lowest stage. It provides support and is suitable for tall passengers. The footrest can be adjusted upwards. by being moved, thanks to the stepped locking system mechanism in its internal structure, the next 25 It locks in place at a higher level, securing itself there; shorter for shorter passengers. It provides the distance. Generally, three-stage mechanisms are preferred: lower, middle, and upper. However, depending on consumer demand, intermediate levels can be added, allowing for different price ranges. It is possible to achieve locking. In this regard, locking can be achieved at each stage (the technique) In its current state, preferably with 3 or more stages of locking mechanisms, 30 Many internal components are used within the mechanism, such as connecting parts, fastening parts, etc. Increasing the number of parts leads to a proportional increase in cost, but also increases the likelihood of malfunctions. In this case, a separate repair process is applied to each part. Used within the mechanism. The large number of components also leads to lengthy assembly processes. In general, the footrests used in public transportation have a movement-providing structure of 35 It needs to be simplified, easy to use, have minimal malfunctions, and be low-cost. It is heard. 2 In the patent search conducted regarding the previous technique, the applicant's patent number is B60N 2 / 00.

This application concerns passenger vehicles. used, connected by a seat spacer (30) which is connected to the seat on one side and 35 It has a main arm (20) which is connected to the pedal (10) on which the passenger rests his foot. It relates to a footrest attachment. 3 In conclusion, passenger transportation vehicles such as buses, minibuses, subways, trains, airplanes, ships, etc. The feet of passengers resting on the seats located under the base of the seats in public transportation vehicles. footrests that provide support, making the sitting position easier and increasing comfort. Improvements are being made regarding the pedals, therefore the above-mentioned 5 New structures that will eliminate disadvantages and provide solutions to existing systems It is needed. Purpose of the Invention The invention relates to public transportation vehicles used in passenger transport, such as buses, minibuses, subways, trains, airplanes, ships, etc. in transportation vehicles, located under the seats, adjusts the passenger's seating position to 10 the footrest, which simplifies and increases comfort, is made easy to use and economical. It relates to an improvement regarding its introduction. The primary purpose of the invention is to create structural elements that enable the movement of the footrest. The goal is to reduce part costs through simplification. 15 Another aim of the invention is to reduce manufacturing times by saving on the number of parts. The advantages are lower costs and shorter assembly times. Another aim of the invention is to reduce failure rates and ensure long-term operation thanks to fewer parts. The goal is to ensure ease of use. Figures that will help understand the invention. Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the footrest when it is open. Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the footrest when closed. 25 Figure 3 shows the footrest disassembled. Figure 4 shows a perspective view of the footrest in the current technology.

It relates to an improvement regarding its introduction. As can be seen in Figure-1, the internal spring footrest(1) which is the subject of the invention, in general The footrest area (2), which is the surface on which the user rests his / her feet, is connected to the main chassis and 15 internal mechanism(9) and footrest(2) which provide the movement elements and internal mechanism(9) It consists of a footrest body (10) which connects to each other and forms the basic structure. As can be seen in Figure-1, the internally spring-loaded footrest(1) is in the open position. It is in use. As can be seen in Figure 2, the internal spring footrest (1) which is the subject of the invention, when not in use It is in the closed position. The user places their foot on the footrest(2) to add weight. As can be seen in Figure 1, with the internal spring footrest(1) in the open position It will be put into use. A perspective view of the footrest pedal in the current technique is shown in Figure 4. In the current technology, the stepped locking mechanism chassis section (A) and the stepped locking mechanism The footrest section (B) is assembled and works by locking together at various levels. When the user rests their foot on it, it opens downwards to its fullest point, allowing the user to... With the current technique, by lifting the footrest pedal (Figure-4) upwards, every 30 Thanks to its locking mechanism, it can be used at the desired height level. Typically, this number of stages consists of two or three steps. The foundation of the current technique... This feature of the push pedal (Figure 4) allows for setting and locking. Many parts are needed. Increasing the number of parts increases the cost and leads to malfunctions. This increases the probability, prolongs assembly work, and also makes the user more difficult to meet the manufacturer's 35% requirements. It creates the obligation to use it at the levels he / she wants and plans. As can be seen in Figure-3, the internal spring footrest (1) which is the subject of the invention; the main element is the mounting. It is a spring (3). One end of the winding spring (3) is attached to the right cover of the internal mechanism (8), and the other end is attached to the foot. It is fixed to the support body (10). The inner mechanism left cover (7) and the inner mechanism right cover The cover(7) will hold the spring(3) in the inner region with connecting elements (4) They are connected to each other. Thus, the 5 created by the user placing his foot on the footrest(2) The resistance of the winding spring (3) fixed at one end to the footrest body (10) based on weight. It loosens by showing and locks in place when the user stops applying pressure with their foot. The user can adjust the footrest area at the desired distance by applying the desired amount of pressure (2) He can stop it. By removing his foot from the footrest area (2), the spring (3) returns to its original state. The rotating, thus the internal spring footrest (1) which is the subject of the invention, is closed (figure-2) out of use 10 It becomes... As can be seen in Figure-3, the chassis connection piece (5) located on top of the internal mechanism (9), It is fixed to the desired area with the connection holes (6). The inner mechanism is connected to the left cover (7) and the inside. The mechanism right cover (8) is connected to each other by connecting elements (4). 15 As can be seen in Figure-3, the setting spring(3) must be at least one or according to the manufacturer's preference. There could be more. 25 35
