Abstract

Control pedals of a vehicle provided with a mechanism of release comprising a pedal 2 for being adjustably pivoted, so that to rotate with respect to a coupling support 3 connected to the front wall of a panel P for the separation of the passenger compartment from the engine compartment. The mechanism of release comprises a coupling bracket 4 which is integrally constrained to a frame cross member B of the vehicle and is constrained to the support 3, so that during a relative movement between the cross member and the panel caused by a substantially frontal impact of the vehicle, a relative movement of a predetermined quantity that determines the release of the pedal 2 from the support 3 can exist between the cross member and the support itself.

Description

Be provided with the control pedal of the vehicle of releasing mechanism
The present invention relates to a kind of safety trip of control pedal of vehicle.Particularly, the present invention relates to a kind of safety trip of the pedal when vehicle is subjected to frontal impact.
In these cases, control pedal may become the danger of chaufeur, because they may enter the compartment, thus the leg of damage chaufeur.
Proposed multiple different scheme, made control pedal to discharge from supporting member by these schemes.
Usually, power actuated vehicle is provided with and is used to control the pedal that acceleration/accel, braking and power-transfer clutch drive.These pedals are usually by following component set-up: arm, and this arm comes rotatably mounted by the carriage on the base plate that is positioned at vehicle; Be used to make the arm bonded assembly device of accelerator, drg or power-transfer clutch and pedal; And carpet veneer, this carpet veneer is connected with the non-pin jointed end of pedal arm, is used for and can be promoted by chaufeur.
Multiple device known in the art can make pedal after vehicle is subjected to frontal impact, particularly its arm damages.In these known devices, for example device can make the hinge-point motion of arm of pedal after frontal impact, with the lower limb of the chaufeur of avoiding damaging vehicle.
This device is shown in the european patent application No.EPA-1065114.
Feature of the present invention relates to the control pedal of the feature with appended claims 1.
By the following exemplary and nonrestrictive explanation of carrying out with reference to the accompanying drawings, with outstanding feature and advantage according to control pedal of the present invention, these accompanying drawings have shown respectively:
Fig. 1 shown according to The whole control pedal of the present invention with transparent view, and it is limited on the cross member below the gauge panel and is limited to the panel that is used to make that the compartment of vehicle self separates with machinery space;
Fig. 2 has shown the enlarged drawing of the releasing mechanism of control pedal of the present invention;
Fig. 3 has shown another enlarged drawing that the releasing mechanism of Fig. 2 is seen from different perspectives;
Fig. 4 has shown the exploded drawings of the parts of control pedal and releasing mechanism of the present invention;
Fig. 5 has shown the transparent view of the release carriage of releasing mechanism of the present invention;
Fig. 6 has shown that pedal is from connecting the stage that supporting member discharges according to the present invention;
Fig. 7 has shown another enlarged drawing of the releasing mechanism of control pedal of the present invention.
With reference to above-mentioned accompanying drawing, control pedal of the present invention comprises releasing mechanism, and this releasing mechanism can damage when vehicle is subjected to frontal impact or release the pedal.
Control pedal generally includes pedal 2 at least, is used for adjustable ground and is defined as rotation on connection supporting member 3, and this connects supporting member 3 and is connected with the antetheca (perhaps equivalence element) of panel P, is used to make the compartment to separate with machinery space.
This pedal is provided with in its upper end: lining 21, and this lining 21 is integral with pedal; And pivot 41, this pivot 41 is integral with supporting member, and this pivot 41 preferably can be inserted in and be formed on on the supporting member 3, the relative a pair of seat 31.
This pivot remains in these seats by a pair of relative locking lever 42, and this is limited on the supporting member 3 by pin 43 locking lever 42.Lever 42 can be sold 43 axis rotation around these, but is maintained in its closed position by the fork 44 in the suitable recess 45 that is bonded on lever self usually, thereby pedal is kept being limited on the supporting member 3.Fork 44 is by linking up with 32 fixed positions that remain on the supporting member.
When vehicle was subjected to frontal impact, releasing mechanism made pedal to discharge from supporting member, so as to make panel P and therefore supporting member 3 towards the interior section motion in the compartment of vehicle.
For reaching this purpose, this mechanism comprises and connects carriage 4, and this connection carriage 4 is limited on the cross member below the gauge panel with being integral.It is considered to basic " fixing " point of vehicle, and panel P can move towards vehicle inside in the frontal impact process.
In fact, in impact process, cross member B and panel P can with respect to the horizontal plane move relative to each other basically.
This connection carriage is limited on the supporting member 3, thereby in the relative motion process between panel and bar, may have the relative motion of scheduled volume between this connection carriage and supporting member self.
This can realize that described slit 46 is provided with seat by a pair of slit 46 that is formed on the carriage, is used to hold the head of screw or pin or equivalent securing device 47, and this screw or pin or equivalent securing device 47 are fixed on again in the supporting member 3.
Like this, in frontal impact and under the situation of relative motion between bar and the panel, screw or pin can move in slit, and the size of this slit has been determined above-mentioned scheduled volume.
Carriage 4 also comprises guiding piece 48 at least, and this guiding piece 48 combines with the respective bump 33 of supporting member 3, so that determine preferred orientations in the relative motion between it and the supporting member self with slit 46 and securing device 47.
And carriage comprises wedge-like portion 49, be used to be inserted into supporting member 3 neutralizations be used to be inserted into fork 44 core below, the core of this fork 44 preferably falls " U " font, is used to help the location of this wedge.
The operation of releasing mechanism is as follows.
According to the relative motion between panel P and cross member B, supporting member 3 and carriage 4 also carry out relative motion between them, thereby approaching mutually.
As this approaching effect, the wedge-like portion 49 of carriage 4 will be inserted in the supporting member 3, and even be inserted into more fork 44 below, thereby it is discharged from linking up with 32, and determine to raise.
This rising makes it discharge from the groove 45 of lever 42, thereby determines the rotation F (shown in special among Fig. 6, arrow F) towards their bottom part, and in this position, pivot 41 can leave seat 31, and pedal 2 is discharged from supporting member 3.
