Abstract

The invention relates to a multiple link accelerator pedal for vehicles, the bottom end of which is connected by way of a connecting part to the splash wall of the vehicle. The connecting part is designed as a strip of links which has transverse impressions regularly distributed over its length. The accelerator pedal and the connecting part are not supported on the floor defining the footwell.

Description

Das Gliederband 11 weist auch eine solche Stärke auf, daß das untere Ende des Fahrpedals 8 keiner weiteren Stütze bedarf, so daß der den Boden 1 bedeckende Teil des Teppichbodens 14 nicht mit dem Fahrpedal 8 oder dem Gliederband 11 in Berührung kommt, so daß dessen Reinigung nicht behindert ist. The link belt 11 has such a strength that the lower End of the accelerator pedal 8 requires no further support, so that the floor 1 covering Part of the carpet 14 is not in contact with the accelerator pedal 8 or the link belt 11 comes so that its cleaning is not hindered.

Claims (1)

Patentanspruch: Mehrgliedriges Fahrpedal aus Kunststoff für Fahrzeuge, dessen Glieder über werkstoffintegrierte Filmscharniere untereinander verbunden sind, wobei im Bereich des oberen Endes der Pedalplatte von deren Rückseite ein Befestigungsglied zur gelenkigen Verbindung der Pedalplatte mit einem in den Fußraum hängenden schwenkbaren Hebel abragt und das untere Ende der Pedalplatte gelenkig mit einem Ende eines Verbindungsteils verbunden ist, das mit seinem anderen Ende an der den Fußraum begrenzenden Spritzwand des Fahrzeugs mittelbar oder unmittelbar befestigbar ist, d a d u r c h g e -k e n n z e i c h n et, daß das Verbindungsteil als Gliederband (11) ausgeführt ist, das über seine Länge gleichmäßig verteilt querlaufende Einprägungen (5) aufweist. Claim: Multi-part plastic accelerator pedal for vehicles, its links are connected to one another via material-integrated film hinges are, in the area of the upper end of the pedal plate from its rear side Fastening member for the articulated connection of the pedal plate with one in the footwell hanging pivotable lever protrudes and the lower end of the pedal plate articulated is connected to one end of a connecting part that is connected to its other end directly or indirectly on the bulkhead of the vehicle that delimits the footwell can be fastened, d a d u r c h e -k e n n z e i c h n et that the connecting part is designed as a link belt (11), which is evenly distributed across its length Has impressions (5). Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein mehrgliedriges Fahrpedal für Fahrzeuge gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs. The invention relates to a multi-element accelerator pedal for vehicles according to the preamble of the claim. Bei einem derartigen Fahrpedal, wie es aus der DE-OS 29 33 494 bekannt ist, ist die Schwenkachse der Fußplatte durch ein Filmscharnier an ihrem unteren Ende festgelegt, so daß sich die Pedalbewegung nicht der individuellen Fußbewegung angleichen kann. With such an accelerator pedal, as is known from DE-OS 29 33 494 is, the pivot axis of the footplate is through a film hinge at its lower End set so that the pedal movement is not the individual foot movement can match. Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, das Fahrpedal so auszubilden, daß sich seine Bewegung besser der Fußbewegung angleichen kann. The invention is based on the object of designing the accelerator pedal in such a way that that his movement can better match the movement of the foot. Die Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß durch die im Kennzeichen des Patentanspruchs angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. The object is according to the invention by the characterizing part of the claim specified features solved. Die Fußplatte des erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Fahrpedals kann je nach Stellung, Angriffspunkt und Bewegung des aufliegenden Fußes um verschiedene Achsen schwenken, die durch die einzelnen Einprägungen gebildet werden, so daß sich die Pedalplatte in ihrer Lage und Bewegung besser dem Fuß und seiner Bewegung anpaßt. Weiterhin können mit Hilfe des Gliederbandes größere Einbautoleranzen überbrückt werden, ohne daß die Funktion des Fahrpedals beeinträchtigt wird. The footplate of the accelerator pedal designed according to the invention can depending according to position, point of attack and movement of the resting foot around different Pivot axes, which are formed by the individual impressions, so that the position and movement of the pedal plate is better adapted to the foot and its movement. Furthermore, larger installation tolerances can be bridged with the help of the link belt without affecting the function of the accelerator pedal. In der Zeichnung ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines Fahrpedals in einer Seitenansicht mit geschnittenem Fahrzeugboden dargestellt. In the drawing, an embodiment of an accelerator pedal is shown in FIG shown a side view with a cut vehicle floor. In den durch den Boden 1 und die Spritzwand 2 des Fahrzeugs begrenzten Fußraum hängt ein um einen Drehpunkt 3 schwenkbarer Hebel 4 herein, mit dessen unterem Ende ein Befestigungsglied 5 fest verbunden ist, das über ein Filmscharnier 6 mit einer aus Kunststoff bestehenden Pedalplatte 7 eines Fahrpedals 8 in dessen oberen Bereich gekoppelt ist, über die zur unmittelbaren Ablage des Fußes 10 eine Hülle 9 geschoben ist. In the limited by the floor 1 and the bulkhead 2 of the vehicle Footwell hangs in a pivotable lever 4 around a pivot point 3, with the lower one End of a fastening member 5 is firmly connected, which via a film hinge 6 with an existing plastic pedal plate 7 of an accelerator pedal 8 in its upper Area is coupled over which a cover for the immediate storage of the foot 10 9 is pushed. Die Pedalplatte 7 des Fahrpedals 8 setzt sich in seinem unteren Ende in einem Gliederband 11 fort, das nach einer Biegung von etwa 90° an seinem unteren Ende über eine Konsole 12 an der Spritzwand 2 befestigt ist. Das Gliederband 11 weist über seine Länge gleichmäßig verteilte Einprägungen 13 auf, die quer zu seiner Längserstreckung verlaufen. Die Einprägungen 13 lassen eine Biegung des Gliederbandes 11 in vielen Querachsen zu, ohne daß das Gliederband 11 die notwendige Tragkraft für die Führung des unteren Teils des Fahrpedals 8 verliert. Damit kann sich das Fahrpedal 8 in günstiger Weise der Lage und den Bewegungen des Fußes 10 anpassen, indem sich beispielsweise bei einer fortlaufenden Bewegung des Fahrpedals 8 seine Schwenkachse dauernd ändert. The pedal plate 7 of the accelerator pedal 8 is set in its lower end in a link belt 11, which after a bend of about 90 ° at its lower The end is fastened to the bulkhead 2 via a bracket 12. The link belt 11 has over its length evenly distributed impressions 13 which are transverse to his Run longitudinally. The impressions 13 allow a bend in the link belt 11 in many transverse axes without the link belt 11 having the necessary load-bearing capacity for guiding the lower part of the accelerator pedal 8 loses. So that can Adapt the accelerator pedal 8 in a favorable manner to the position and movements of the foot 10, by, for example, in a continuous movement of the accelerator pedal 8 its Swivel axis changes continuously.
