Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate any fear of a driving error in making engine speed differ from the operation of a brake pedal by pivoting the accelerator pedal swingably onto a driver's seat floor in a car within the gradient plane, operating the accelerator pedal into a swing motion and adjusting the engine speed adequately. CONSTITUTION:When a driver's foot is not placed on a pedal 7, the latter separates from a horizontal floor 2 owing to elasticity of a spring 10, whereby it is held in a state of being deflected to one side (A). At this time, a core 15 of a push-pull wire 14 connected to a throttle valve is released, and thereby an engine is held in a low-speed idling state. On the other hand, when the driver' s foot is placed on the pedal 7, the latter is swiveled in a (b) direction within the gradient plane making a bearing 5 a fulcrum by the foot load and goes down. At this time, the core 15 is pulled to some extent and the pedal 7 is situated in a lowermost position (B), so the engine is held in a low-speed stable running state. In succession, when the pedal 7 is swiveled in the (B) direction up to such a state (C) that the pedal 7 is deflected to the other side and then it is made to go up, the engine can be turned at a high speed.

The foot pedal is operated by stepping on the accelerator pedal, turning the pedal in an inclined plane, and adjusting the turning angle to adjust the opening of the throttle valve to control the engine rotation. The difference from the brake pedal is marked and operation mistakes are prevented. Further, by setting the throttle opening of the engine so that the vehicle is in a low-speed stable traveling state when the accelerator pedal is turned so that the pedal is turned to the lowest position, Due to the weight of the driver's right foot on the pedal, the vehicle can be naturally settled in a low-speed stable running state, and driving becomes easier.
