Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a precise hysteresis curve during only one operation of a pedal, by providing a load meter at the lower end of a control lever, perpendicular to a stepping plate. CONSTITUTION:A pedal arm 1 is secured at its lower end with a stepping plate 1a having its upper section in a convexly curved shape and is coupled at its upper end with a control rod in a clutch. A control lever 5 is pivotally supported on the same shaft as for the pedal arm 1, and is secured at its lower end with a vertical piece 6a of a bracket 6 with a horizontal piece 6b thereof being arranged at a lower side. The outer surface of a load meter 7 secured to the lower surface of the horizontal piece 6b, is made abut against the surface of a stepping plate 1a, perpendicular to the plate 1a. Further, when a handle 5b is gripped by one hand to rotate a lever 5 downward, the outer surface of the load meter 7 depresses the stepping plate 1a, and therefore, the load exerted to the load meter 7 from the stepping plate 1a will not scatters so that a normal hysteresis curve may be obtained during only one time operation.

"Function" The apparatus for carrying out the method of the present invention is constructed as follows. A total of 7 surfaces press the footboard 1a of the pedal arm 1, and the pedal arm 1 rotates downward together with the operating lever 5 against the return spring 4 and the like. +7 After reaching the L end, if you move your hand upward while grasping the handle part 5b, the peggle arm 1 will rotate upward with the footplate -〇-1a in pressure contact with the surface of the load cell 7. Stop at the original position. In this case, the load cell 7 is the footboard 1a
Moreover, since the centers of rotation of the pedal arm 1 and the operating lever 5 are coaxial, the load cell 7 remains at right angles to the tread plate 1a from beginning to end without changing even if the pedal arm 1 rotates. Since the load cell 7 is in pressure contact with the footboard 1a, the load that the load cell 7 receives from the footboard 1a does not vary, and a regular hysteresis curve can be obtained in just one operation.

[Effect of the invention 1 The present invention;; 1. A load meter is attached to the lower end of the operating lever coaxially supported with the pedal arm so as to be in contact with the footboard at right angles,
This is a method for measuring the pedal force of an automobile pedal, in which the operating lever is rotated around the pivot point so as to cross the "F stroke x load" curve, and the measuring operation involves pressing down on the end of the operating lever. The labor is reduced because it is only a tedious task of returning the material. Since the operating lever and the pedal arm have the same pivot point, the perpendicularity of the load cell to the footplate of the pedal arm does not change throughout the entire operation, making it possible to obtain an accurate hysteresis curve with only one operation. Therefore, the number of work steps is significantly reduced.
