Abstract
745,253. Training drivers. TEW, B. I. July 30, 1954 [July 30, 1953], No. 21131/53. Classes 79 (3) and 79 (5). A vehicle dual-control mechanism comprises an auxiliary control 5 or 6 mounted on a portable support 11 and connected by a Bowden cable mechanism 34 or 35 to a member 73 or 74 movably mounted in another portable support 51 and adapted to act on a main control 1 or 2 of the vehicle, the wire of the cable mechanism interconnecting the auxiliary control 5 or 6 and the other portable support 51 and the sleeve of the mechanism interconnecting the first portable support 11 and the movable member 73 or 74. As shown, the auxiliary control mechanism, which is disposed for operation from the seat beside the driver, comprises clutch and brake pedals 5, 6 pivoted at 7 to the support 11 having rubber legs 24, 25 engaging the vehicle floor, the support 11 having parts 14, 15 pivoted thereto at 7, 17 and the parts 14, 15 being releasably connected at 21. The wires of the Bowden cable mechanisms 34, 35 are releasably connected to the pedals 5, 6, the cable sleeves being releasably connected to the part 14 and the mechanisms being supported by a strap 44 and a rubber suction pad from the windscreen, dashboard or like surface of the vehicle. The mechanisms 34, 35 operate the vehicle clutch and brake pedals 1, 2, the pedals releasably carrying the movable abutment members 73, 74 mounted in the support 51 and having convex surfaces 70 engaging the pedals, the members 73, 74 being engageable by the driver's feet. The members 73 each carry, by means of springs 76, a bar 77 engaging the undersurfaces of the pedals. In a modification, Fig. 5, each pedal is engaged at its edges by clips 192, 193, the clip 192 being connected by a spring 176 to and the clip 193 being secured to the movable member. Each abutment member is secured to an arm 71 carrying a rod 67 which is slidably mounted in a bracket 66 secured to a tubular member 54 forming part of the support 51. The member 54 receives a stub 50 carrying a base 52 engaging the vehicle floor, a spring 57 being arranged between the base 52 and member 54. The member 54 receives and is adjustably secured to a member 53 carrying clamps 61 adapted to engage a collar 47 on the steering column 4. The other ends of the wires of the Bowden cable mechanisms 34, 35 are releasably connected to a collar 62 on the member 54 and the other ends of the sleeves are releasably connected to flanges 83 on the arms 71.
