Definitions
- the present invention relates to a foot protection device for a driver, intended to equip a vehicle deck.
- the lower limbs of the driver are projected forward and upward and can thus hit the apron of the vehicle, that is to say the wall separating the engine compartment of the passenger compartment, or the steering column.
- JP2004130975 It is particularly known from JP2004130975 to use as protection system a removable reinforcing plate, resting on the floor and on the deck of the vehicle.
- the removable reinforcing plate is provided with latching means to the apron and a footrest. During a frontal impact, the reinforcement plate is released from the latching means by a rearward movement and protects the foot of the driver during projection in front of its lower limbs.
- the removable reinforcing plate holds the foot in the case of a forward projection but does not allow to retain and / or stabilize the foot when projecting upwards.
- this system does not allow lateral support of the foot.
- the foot is particularly vulnerable to lateral torsion movements such as inversion and reversion which are respectively the movement with the tip of the foot down, forward and inward and the movement carrying the external part of the foot up, outside and behind.
- lateral torsion movements such as inversion and reversion which are respectively the movement with the tip of the foot down, forward and inward and the movement carrying the external part of the foot up, outside and behind.
- the present invention aims to remedy all or part of the aforementioned drawbacks and consists for this purpose in a foot protection device of a driver, intended to equip a vehicle deck, said device comprising a base surmounted by a first running in the direction of axis X'X, said first step forming a footrest and having a riser, said first riser, said device being characterized in that said first riser and said base define a housing shaped to receive at least one pad fitted to a pedal.
- the first step ensures the function of footrest and also allows to retain the driver's foot in the case of projection forward during a frontal impact.
- the housing defined by the riser and the base allows to receive at least one pad fitted with a pedal, thus avoiding the dangerous interaction for the driver's foot between the first step and the pedal in maximum depression position.
- the base and the first step are monobloc.
- the first step is surmounted by a second step in the direction of the X'X axis, said second step having a riser, said second riser forming a stop for the driver's foot.
- the second riser makes it possible to hold the driver's foot when projecting upwards, in the case of a frontal impact.
- the second step has a tread, said second tread, recessed so as to have in cross section to the X'X axis a portion of complementary shape to a steering column. This feature makes it easy to integrate the device near the steering column.
- the first step and the second step are monobloc.
- the first step has a tread, said first tread, comprising a projecting plate extending in a plane substantially perpendicular to the plane of said first tread, according to the direction of the Y'Y axis.
- the hedge plate contributes to improving the lateral support of the foot and thus limit the lateral torsional movements of the foot.
- the first step and the projecting plate are monobloc.
- the device further comprises means for fixing the apron.
- the invention also relates to a motor vehicle comprising an apron on which is fixed a pedal, characterized in that it comprises a protective device as described above arranged in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, between the deck and the pedal.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a device according to a first embodiment of the invention
- Figure 2 is a perspective view of a device according to a second embodiment of the invention
- Figure 3 is a perspective view of the device of Figure 1, equipping a vehicle deck.
- the device 1 illustrated in FIG. 1 comprises a base 2 surmounted by a first step 3 in the direction of the axis X'X.
- the first step 3 performs the function of footrest and has a first riser 30 defining with the base 2 a housing 20 shaped to receive a pad and a lower part of a pedal, not shown in Figure 1, but visible on Figure 3.
- the first step 3 is surmounted by a second step 4 in the direction of the X'X axis, the second step 4 having a second riser 40 forming a stop for the driver's foot.
- the second step has a second tread 41, hollowed out in such a way as to have, in cross-section with the axis X'X, a portion of shape 42 complementary to a steering column 5, said steering column 5 not shown in Figure 1 but visible in Figure 3.
- the first step 3 has a first tread 31 comprising a projecting plate 6 extending in a plane substantially perpendicular to the plane of said first tread 31, in the direction of the axis Y'Y.
- the device 1 is provided with two rings 21 fixed to the base 2, operating as fastening means to the deck 7, said rings 21 being able to cooperate with a screw-nut assembly, not shown in FIG. 1. It is note that the device 1 illustrated in Figure 1 is monobloc.
- FIG. 2 illustrates the device 1 which is different from that shown in FIG. 1 in that it further comprises a branch 32 operating as additional fastening means to the apron 7.
- the branch 32 projecting from of the plate 6, has a first end 321 of annular shape adapted to cooperate with a screw-nut assembly, not shown in Figure 2.
- the branch 32 has a second end provided with an inner shoulder 322, the second end being located at level of the first step 3.
- the device 1 illustrated in FIG. 3 is fixed to the deck 7 of a vehicle.
- the device 1 is provided between a brake pedal 8 and an accelerator pedal 9, substantially facing the steering column 5.
- the brake pedal 8 and the accelerator pedal 9, belonging to the pedal of the vehicle, are respectively mounted movable between a rest position (80 respectively 90) and a maximum driving position (81 respectively 91).
- the forward projection leads to a maximum driving position 90 of the accelerator pedal 9 by the driver.
- the pad 92 of the accelerator pedal 9 then comes into the housing 20 defined by the first riser 30 and the base 2.
- the driver's foot is stopped by the stop formed by the second riser 40, the foot is thus stopped, at the beginning of the shock, before the intrusions of the deck and the steering column in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. In this way, the speed of impact between the foot and the parts located in its environment is reduced which limits the driver's injuries.
- the protruding plate 6 makes it possible to limit the lateral twisting of the driver's foot.
