Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Fahrpedaleinrichtung zum Einstellen der Fahrgeschwindigkeit eines Fahrzeuges, mit einer Fahrpedalplatte, mit mindestens einer Feder, die eine Rückstellkraft auf die Fahrpedalplatte ausübt, mit einem Verbindungselement, das die Bewegung der Fahrpedalplatte auf die Feder überträgt, mit zumindest einem Sensor, der ein von der Betätigung der Fahrpedalplatte abhängiges Signal erzeugt, und einem Reibelement zur Erzeugung einer Krafthysterese bei Betätigung der Fahrpedalplatte.The invention relates to an accelerator pedal device for adjusting the driving speed of a vehicle, with an accelerator pedal plate, with at least one spring which exerts a restoring force on the accelerator pedal plate, with a connecting element which transmits the movement of the accelerator pedal plate to the spring, with at least one sensor, the generates signal dependent on the operation of the accelerator pedal plate, and a friction member for generating a force hysteresis upon actuation of the accelerator pedal plate.
Eine solche Fahrpedaleinrichtung ist aus der
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Sensor ein linearer Wegsensor ist, daß das Verbindungselement durch eine, vorzugsweise rechtwinklig, abgewinkelte Anformung an dem Gehäuse geführt ist und daß das Verbindungselement die Bewegung der Fahrpedalplatte umlenkt, wobei das Verbindungselement als eine Gliederkette ausgeführt ist und das Verbindungselement aus zwei starren, drehbar gelagerten Stößeln und dem flexibel ausgebildeten Reibelement besteht, wobei das flexible Reibelement an einer Reibfläche an der Innenseite eines bogenförmigen Abschnitts der Anformung anliegt.This object is achieved in that the sensor is a linear displacement sensor, that the connecting element is guided by a, preferably rectangular, angled Anformung on the housing and that the connecting element deflects the movement of the accelerator pedal plate, wherein the connecting element is designed as a link chain and the connecting element consists of two rigid, rotatably mounted tappets and the flexibly formed friction element, wherein the flexible friction element bears against a friction surface on the inside of an arcuate portion of the Anformung.
Ein Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Fahrpedaleinrichtung ist, daß diese aus einer relativ geringen Anzahl von Teilen besteht und damit besonders kostengünstig herstellbar ist. Durch die Verwendung eines Linearsensors zusammen mit einem Verbindungselement, welches die Richtung der Fahrpedalbewegung etwa rechtwinklig umlenkt, wird eine besonders kleinbauende Ausführungsform möglich, so daß die erfindungsgemäße Fahrpedaleinrichtung auch bei besonders engen Platzverhältnissen verwendet werden kann.An advantage of the accelerator pedal device according to the invention is that it consists of a relatively small number of parts and thus is particularly inexpensive to produce. By using a linear sensor together with a connecting element, which deflects the direction of the accelerator pedal movement approximately at right angles, a particularly small-sized embodiment becomes possible, so that the accelerator pedal device according to the invention can also be used in particularly narrow spaces.
Ein besonderer Vorteil der erfindungsgemäßen Fahrpedaleinrichtung besteht darin, daß sie als fertig vormontierbare Baugruppe ausgeführt sein kann, die auf besonders einfache Weise in ein Fahrzeug eingebaut werden kann. Zu diesem Zweck ist es auch vorteilhaft, die elektrischen Verbindungen zwischen der Fahrpedaleinrichtung und dem Fahrzeugmotor über einen in das Gehäuse der Fahrpedaleinrichtung eingebrachten Steckverbinder herzustellen.A particular advantage of the accelerator pedal device according to the invention is that it can be designed as a ready preassembled module, which can be installed in a particularly simple manner in a vehicle. For this purpose it is Also advantageous to produce the electrical connections between the accelerator pedal device and the vehicle engine via an inserted into the housing of the accelerator pedal device connector.
Vorteilhaft ist auch, als Rückstellfedern eine oder mehrere Schraubendruckfedern vorzusehen. Schraubendruckfedern haben durch eine hohe Vorspannung den Vorteil, daß sie selbst nach einem Bruch noch genügend Rückstellkraft besitzen, um die Fahrpedalplatte in die Leerlaufstellung zu bewegen, so daß die Betriebssicherheit der Fahrpedaleinrichtung weiterhin gegeben ist. In diesem Zusammenhang kann die Rückstellkraft vorteilhaft auch durch mehrere Schraubendruckfedern erzeugt werden, die insbesondere parallelachsig zueinander angeordnet sind. Durch diese Maßnahme wird eine Redundanz geschaffen, die einen besonders sicheren Betrieb der Fahrpedaleinrichtung sicherstellt.It is also advantageous to provide one or more helical compression springs as return springs. Helical compression springs have a high bias the advantage that they still have enough restoring force even after a break to move the accelerator pedal plate in the neutral position, so that the reliability of the accelerator pedal device is still given. In this context, the restoring force can be advantageously produced by a plurality of helical compression springs, which are arranged in particular parallel axis to each other. By this measure, a redundancy is created, which ensures a particularly safe operation of the accelerator pedal device.
Der lineare Wegsensor kann als Potentiometer und, aus Gründen der Redundanz vorteilhaft, als mehrbahniges Potentiometer ausgebildet sein.The linear displacement sensor can be designed as a potentiometer and, for reasons of redundancy, advantageously as a multi-track potentiometer.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, den Wegsensor als berührungslosen Sensor, z. B. als induktiven oder magnetoresistiven Sensor auszubilden, da ein solcher Sensor praktisch keinem Verschleiß unterworfen ist.It is particularly advantageous to use the displacement sensor as a non-contact sensor, for. B. form as inductive or magnetoresistive sensor, since such a sensor is subjected to virtually no wear.
Zur Verwendung der Fahrpedaleinrichtung in Fahrzeugen mit einem automatischen Getriebe kann das Gehäuse der Fahrpedaleinrichtung vorteilhafterweise eine angeformte Aufnahme für ein Kickdown-Element aufweisen.For use of the accelerator pedal device in vehicles with an automatic transmission, the housing of the accelerator pedal device can advantageously have an integrally formed receptacle for a kickdown element.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel einer erfindungsgemäßen Fahrpedaleinrichtung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und soll im folgenden anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert werden:An embodiment of an accelerator pedal device according to the invention is shown in the drawing and will be explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing:

Figur 1 zeigt einen Schnitt durch eine erfindungsgemäße Fahrpedaleinrichtung. Diese besteht aus einer Fahrpedalplatte 1, die beweglich an ein Gehäuse 2 angelenkt ist. Mit der Fahrpedalplatte 1 über ein Gelenk verbunden ist das Verbindungselement 4, welches aus zwei starren, drehbar gelagerten Stößeln 4a, 4b und einem flexibel ausgebildeten Reibelement 5 besteht.FIG. 1 shows a section through an accelerator pedal device according to the invention. This consists of an
Das Verbindungselement 4 ist durch eine in etwa rechtwinklig abgewinkelte Anformung 3 des Gehäuses 2 geführt, wobei das flexible Reibelement 5 an einer Reibfläche 6 an der Innenseite eines bogenförmigen Abschnitts 7 der Anformung 3 anliegt.The connecting
Das Verbindungselement 4 innerhalb der rechtwinkligen Anformung 3 lenkt die Bewegung der Fahrpedalplatte 1 um ca. 90° um und betätigt einen innerhalb des Gehäuses angeordneten Zylinder 11, welcher bei einer Bewegung der Fahrpedalplatte 1 ein nicht näher dargestelltes Paket von Schraubendruckfedern 8 mit der Betätigungskraft der Fahrpedalplatte 1 beaufschlagt.The connecting
Die auf die Fahrpedalplatte 1 eingeleitete Kraft wird über den Stößel 4a auf das Reibelement 5 geleitet, wobei der Stößel 4a das Reibelement 5 gegen die Reibfläche 6 preßt. Am anderen Ende des Reibelements 5 ist ein zweiter Stößel 4b drehbar befestigt. Dieser überträgt über den Zylinder 11 die Betätigungskraft des Fahrpedals auf das Schraubenfedernpaket 8.
Die Anordnung des Sensors an der Fahrpedaleinrichtung verdeutlicht die Figur 2, welche eine Schnittzeichnung durch das Gehäuse 2 im Bereich des Federpaketes zeigt. Der Teil des Gehäuses, in welchem der Zylinder 11 angeordnet ist, ist durch einen Gehäusedeckel 12 abgeschlossen. Mit der Außenseite des Gehäusedeckels 12 verbunden ist eine Sensorleiterplatte 13, die einen, vorzugsweise berührungslosen und ein redundantes Meßsignal erzeugenden Sensor aufweist.The force introduced on the

Zu Erkennung der Anfangs- oder Endlagenposition der Fahrpedalplatte können auch zusätzliche Endschalter vorgesehen werden. Weiterhin erscheint es für Fahrzeuge mit automatischem Getriebe sinnvoll ein Kickdown-Element 10 hinzuzufügen, so daß der Fahrer anhand der Kraftcharakteristik des Fahrpedals das Erreichen der Kickdown-Stellung der Fahrpedalplatte erkennen kann.The
