Abstract

A brake pedal ( 1 ) for a vehicle, in particular, a motor vehicle, includes a framework structure ( 2 ) mounted for rotation about a first rotation spindle ( 3 ) connectable to the bulkhead of the vehicle. A peg ( 5 ) is fixed to one end ( 4 a) of a pedal web ( 4 ) and slides in a slot ( 21 ) provided in the framework structure ( 2 ). A movement mechanism ( 7 ) causes the peg to slide in the slot, defining a length (L) between the rotation spindle of the framework structure and the other end ( 4 b) of the pedal web. A first link ( 8 ) is connected to the framework structure and is mounted for rotation about a second rotation spindle ( 9 ) connectable to the bulkhead of the vehicle. The first link includes a connection ( 13 ) for receiving an end of the rod of the brake booster of the vehicle at a distance (R) from the second rotation spindle. The brake pedal operates to provide a constant step-down ratio (L/R).
