<p>System to disconnect a control pedal (2) of a device of a vehicle from the same pedal whereto the pedal is connected, the pedal being mounted with rotation capacity around a main shaft (3), the system comprising a drive rod (4) of the device articulately joined to the pedal by coupling means (5); a receiving body (6) of an impact as a consequence of a head-on collision of the vehicle, provided with a cam portion, mounted with rotation capacity around the same main shaft; and separable joining means (8) designed to keep the receiving body and the pedal solidly joined in normal conditions and to be deactivated when the receiving body receives an impact which exceeds a predetermined value, so that said receiving body is capable of freely rotating around the main shaft independently of the pedal, the cam portion of the receiving body being designed to perform a pushing action on the coupling means between the rod and the pedal in the event of the receiving body rotating with respect to the pedal, which produces the decoupling and the separation between said rod and pedal, both remaining disconnected.</p> |
