摘要: An accelerator device includes a pedal pad and a strain gauge. When a driver of a vehicle having the accelerator device depresses the pedal pad, the pedal pad is deformed in a direction of a blank arrow. The strain gauge senses the displacement amount of the pedal pad in the direction of the blank arrow and outputs an electric signal, which corresponds to the displacement amount, to an outside as the depression amount of the accelerator device. When the driver removes a foot from the pedal pad, the pedal pad returns to a state of the pedal pad that is not depressed by the driver. Therefore, it is possible to limit occurrence of that the depression amount of the pedal pad becomes an unintended value due to, for example, catching of the pedal pad by a floor mat. As a result, the accelerator device can reliably sense the depression amount.

摘要: A system and method of illuminating a foot pedal with an illuminated protective covering. The illuminated protective covering can include a plurality of illuminating devices surrounding at least a majority of a perimeter of the foot pedal. The illuminated protective covering can also include a sheet surrounding the upper surface and the lower surface of the foot pedal and the plurality of illuminating devices, the sheet being configured to protect the foot pedal from debris during use. A friction portion can be attached to the sheet, the friction portion being positioned on the sheet such that the friction portion is adjacent the bottom surface of the foot pedal when the sheet surrounds the foot pedal, the friction portion being configured to prevent sliding of the foot pedal against the floor or other surface.

摘要: A floor support frame (8) is provided with a left side pilot valve (21). The left side pilot valve (21) is provided with a left side operating pedal (23) that is foot-operated. The left side operating pedal (23) is configured of a first foot board (26) that is mounted on the left pilot valve (21) to be rotatable in an upper-lower direction, a shaft (27) that is mounted in a rear portion of the first foot board (26), and a second foot board (28) that is mounted through the shaft (27) on the first foot board (26) to be rotatable in a horizontal direction. The second foot board (28) is rotatable between a storage position of overlapping the first foot board (26) and a use position of being rotated in the rear side of the first foot board (26). An operation regulating mechanism (29) is provided in the front side of the first foot board (26) to be engaged to the second foot board (28) when the second foot board (28) is rotated to the storage position to regulate a foot operation.

摘要: A method for the operation of at least one actuator for a force controller of a device, for which a user of the device is provided with a haptic feedback message about at least one operating state of the device by a force, which is predetermined in its strength and acts by way of at least one actuator on the force controller, when the force controller is brought by the user to at least one predetermined point on a track of movement of the force controller. The at least one actuator is controlled in such a way that the strength of the force acting by way of the at least one actuator on the force controller is reduced after another predetermined period of time.

摘要: A mounting structure for a pedal device including a pedal and a bracket is configured to mount the pedal device on a dash panel with the dash panel sandwiched by and between the bracket and a master cylinder device. The mounting structure includes: a plurality of fastening rods for fastening the bracket to the master cylinder device; and a plurality of collars interposed between the dash panel and the bracket for spacing the dash panel and the bracket apart from each other, the fastening rods extending through the collars. The collars include a pair of collars, and one of the pair of collars has an extending portion extending along the dash panel in a direction away from the other of the pair of collars and functions as a reinforcing member for reducing deformation of the dash panel caused when the pedal is stepped on.

摘要: A device includes: a storage that stores detection values of a position detector when an operation member is at a start point position and when the operation member is at an end point position as a start point detection value and an end point detection value, respectively; an operation amount computing section that, based on a difference between the detection value of the position detector and the start point detection value, computes an operation amount of the operation member; and a correction section that, when the detection value falls below the start point detection value, corrects the start point detection value by adding thereto a deviation value of the detection value from the start point detection value, and when the detection value exceeds the end point detection value, corrects the start point detection value by adding thereto a deviation of the detection value from the end point detection value.
