This invention relatesto an attachmentto be employed in connection with a well known type of vehicle, the zprimar y'object'f of the invention being to; provide 'means whereby the clutch pedal maybe held against movement'when" it has been forced'into' a position-to throw the low gear otthevvehicle, into operation."
An important object of the inventionlis to provide a'device of this character which will be automatic in its operation, and one which may be thrown out of use with the I minimum amount of exertion on thepart of the operator: V 7 r. V I
A still further object of theinvention' 1s .to provide a clutch pedal lockllwhich may e be readily and easily attached to theusual motor vehicle construction, eliminating: the
necessity of making alterations in the-usual construction to install the device.
With the foregoing and other. Objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides insthe com bination and arrangement 'ofpartsand in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it b-eing'understoodthat changes'in the precisev embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be madev 7 within the scope of whatis claimed, w1th- 30 out departing from the spirit of the 1I1V811-1 transmission cover that is bolted to the hous ing 6 by means of the bolts 7 arranged at f the corners of'the housing and at points adjacent to the edges of the cover. 7 a
The device forming the essence of the invention includes an arm 8 which is bolted to the transmission, housing by means of bolts 9, the usual bolts 7 arranged intermediate the ends of the transmission cover have in been removed and replaced by the bolts 8.
' The arm 8 is substantially long so that one i end thereof extends beyond one side of the transmission housing where the same is bent by Figure 3.

Operating between the furcationsiofthe v 7 bifurcated portlon Lofth-e arm ,8 1s a locking arm 11 which is formed-with a notch 12dis- J- posed adjacent to the upper t end thereof,. which notch .12 defines a shoulder 1315000- operate with the arm 8 in a manner. as shown g the armin its active p. sition. t v t As shown, the arm 'is-slightly twisted at a point adjacent 'toits lower end, where the ;same is formed withan opening to permit the same to be slipped'over'one end of the connectingflink 14 that connects with the lower end of the clutch pedal 15. for trans- 'mitting movement to the lever 16 forming a part of the usual tion. p N 7 7 p At the upper end ofjthe locking arm 11 the coiled spring 18,- the opposite end of the spring beinglsecured to the arm Sby' means of one'ofthe bolts I V Thus it will beseen that due to-this "con struction, the coiled spring 18 will normally act to draw the upper endof the locking arm 11 inwardlyj towards the transmission housmg thereby bringing the shoulder 13 into close engagement with the arm 8 to prevent farther downward movement of the locking arm 11 As before stated; indirectly connected with the clutch pedal 15, so that when thelclutch pedal is forced downwardly to throw thelow gear into operation, the shoulderlS is moved'to a posimotor vehicle construc- '80 'is a notch 17 that'accommodates one endof the locking arm 11 is v tion to engage the upper, edge of the arm matically moving into the high position,

of travel of the brake pedal ofthe vehicle,
an arm cooperating With the first mentioned arm to hold the clutchpedal in a predetermined position, and said brake pedal adapt ed to release the first mentioned arm when the brake pedal is moved slightly downwardly. V
In testimony that I'c'l'aim my own, I have hereto affixed my signature.
