- the pedal arrangement 2 has two pedals 2a and 2b, namely a brake pedal 2a and an accelerator pedal 2b.
- an embodiment of the pedal arrangement 2 with only one pedal is also conceivable.
- Some of the components of the device 1 described below for adjusting the pedal arrangement 2 are required, in the case of the presence of only one pedal, only once and not, as shown, twice.
- the positioning of the pedals 2a and 2b in the rest positions of the pedal assembly 2 shown in the figures is to be regarded as purely exemplary and it is quite conceivable that with other space conditions within the motor vehicle, the two pedals 2a and 2b in their rest position are completely different Positions. Requirements that arise in right-hand drive vehicles can also be taken into account.
- All the embodiments of the device 1 described herein have in common that they have a drive device 3, a transmission device 4 connected to the drive device 3 and a connecting device 6 attached at least indirectly to a body 5 of the motor vehicle, which is only indicated schematically.
- the respective bearing points 5a of the body 5 are shown very schematically.
- the connec tion device 6 can be actuated by means of the drive device 3 via the transmission device 4 in order to bring the pedal assembly 2 from the use position into the rest position.
- the drive device 3 can be designed, for example, as an electric motor or as a linear drive.
- the transmission device 4 has a threaded spindle 7 drivable by the drive device 3 and at least two toothed cam disks 8 which are in engagement with the threaded spindle 7 and which each have one to the connecting device 6 belonging, articulated to the body 5, ie at the bearing points 5a, attached connecting element 6a are in operative connection.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 show that the cam disks 8 when they are driven by the threaded spindle 7 rotate, whereby the articulated on the body 5 Ver connecting elements 6a rotate accordingly and pivot the two pedals 2a and 2b of the pedal assembly 2 into the rest position.
- the pedal assembly 2 can also be moved to the right contrary to the illustration of FIG.
- the device 1 can be controlled in a suitable manner by means of an electrical control device, not shown.
- a control unit for controlling the device 1 can be arranged in the connecting elements 6a in a manner not shown.
- a brake pedal module (not shown) can also be accommodated within the connecting elements 6a.
- the drive device 3 can be connected to the threaded spindle 7 in a manner known per se.
- the threaded spindle 7 is mounted at least indirectly on the body 5 on two bearings 9.
- a footrest 10 is provided which is operatively connected to the drive device 3 in such a way that when the pedal arrangement 2 is moved from the use position to the rest position, the foot rest 10 can be brought from a rest position to a use position. So that the foot support 10 can move simultaneously with the pedal assembly 2. This movement of the footrest 10 downwards can be seen from a comparison of FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the footrest 10 is mounted on the threaded spindle 7 via a nut 11.
- the components of the device 1 with the exception of the Pedalanord voltage 2 can be arranged behind a cockpit (not shown) or a dashboard (not shown) of the motor vehicle and attached to a bulkhead also not shown.
- the embodiment of FIG. 3 differs from that of FIGS. 1 and 2 in that the footrest 10 is not present.
- threaded spindle also includes rods with circumferential grooves which are in engagement with corresponding cam disks 8. Such rods can for example be moved from the drive device 3 in the axial direction Rich.
- the footrest 10 can in this case be connected directly to such a rod.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 An embodiment very similar to the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 2 is shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
- a second threaded spindle 7 ' is provided so that each of the cams 8 is connected to a single NEN threaded spindle 7 or 7'.
- the two threaded spindles 7 and 7 ' are connected to one another by means of a gear arrangement 12, which transmits the drive from the drive device 3 to the threaded spindle 7'.
- This arrangement allows a different direction of rotation to be generated for the second threaded spindle 7 'than for the first threaded spindle 7, so that the two cam disks 8 rotate in different directions.
- the two pedals 2a and 2b, as shown in FIG. 5, can be moved in different directions. This can provide the user of the motor vehicle with greater freedom.
- the transmission device 4 again has the drive device device 3 drivable threaded spindle 7 on.
- a guide block 7 engaging with the threaded spindle 7 is provided, which is operatively connected to the connecting elements 6 a of the connecting device 6.
- the guide link 13 is in engagement with the threaded spindle 7 via a nut 14.
- the guide slot 13 has two longitudinal grooves 15, which can be seen more clearly in FIG. 7, into which guide pins 16 engage, which are connected to the connecting elements 6a via connecting pieces 6b.
- the guide slot 13 is also provided, which in turn engages via the nut 14 with the threaded spindle 7 driven by the drive device 3.
- the guide slot 13 has a bridge 13a rigidly connected to the connecting elements 6a and the connecting elements 6a are slidably mounted in the respective guide rails 17 of the guide slot 13.
- the bridge 13a of the guide link 13 therefore connects the two connec tion elements 6a with each other and with the threaded spindle 7.
- the guide rails 17 are connected to the body 5 in a manner not shown. The guide rails 17 thereby offer a support for the force applied by the driver to the pedal assembly 2 when operating the same.
- the two pedals 2a and 2b are accordingly movably guided in the guide rails 17 and can be moved linearly along the same.
- the footrest 10 which can be adjusted between the use position and the rest position is provided.
- the Ge threaded spindle 7 in its area in engagement with the guide slot 13 has a different thread orientation (ie a left instead of a right thread or vice versa) than in the area in which it is engaged with the foot support 10, so that when the threaded spindle 7 rotates, the guide slot 13 moves in a different direction than the footrest 10. It is also possible to use two threaded spindles and to move the pedals 2a and 2b independently of one another.
- the transmission device 4 has a drive wheel 18 that can be driven by the drive device 3 and a flexible tension element 19, for example a slack tension element 19, which engages with the drive wheel 18 and with the respective connecting elements 6a of the connecting device 6 Cable or Bowden cable or the like, on.
- the two connecting elements 6a are guided vertically movably in the guide rails 17 connected to the body 5 in a manner not shown here.
- the connecting elements 6a are mounted displaceably in the guide rails 17 by means of corresponding sliding or guide blocks 6c.
- the pliable tension element 19 is attached to this guide stones 6c.
- the transmission device 4 has two drive wheels 22 connected via a pliable element 21, for example a belt, a chain or the like, which accordingly can be configured as pulleys, chain wheels or the like.
- the two drive wheels 22 are operatively connected to the respective connecting elements 6a of the connecting device 6.
- one of the two drive wheels 22 is driven by the drive device 3, specifically in the present case via an intermediate wheel 23, for example designed as a gear.
- the transmission device 4 has two gears 24 that can be driven by the drive device 3, as well as those already provided in the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 3 and the embodiment according to FIGS. 4 and 5 Henen cam disks 8 with which the gears 24 are in engagement.
- the cam disks 8 are in turn operatively connected to the connecting elements 6a of the connecting device 6 or are firmly connected to the same.
- a spring device 25 is provided which engages the pedal arrangement 2 in such a way that the pedal arrangement 2 can be brought from the rest position into the use position by the force of the spring device 25.
- the spring device 25 for example, in the event of a fault, the pedal arrangement 2 can be rotated into the footwell so that the driver can take over the management of the motor vehicle in any case.
- the spring device 25 can also have several individual spring elements aufwei, as indicated in Fig. 15 by the two spring elements 25 '. This also shows that it is not absolutely necessary that the spring device 25 connects the two pedals 2a and 2b to one another, but that one or more of the spring elements 25 ′ of the spring device 25 can be connected to the body 5.
- one of the two gears 24 has a translation, which results in a different pivot angle for the corresponding pedal, in this case the accelerator pedal 2b, than for the brake pedal 2a connected to the gearwheel 24 with no translation.
