摘要 |
The invention relates to a pedal system (100) for a motor vehicle (1), which pedal system comprises an elastic coupling element (9) and a control unit (3) in addition to a pedal lever (5) and an actuator (13). The elastic coupling element is operatively arranged between the pedal lever (5) and the actuator (13) and has relatively low stiffness. The control unit is designed to control the actuator. Brief force or torque fluctuations occurring in the actuator (13), for example, can be damped means of said elastic coupling element (9), such that said force or torque fluctuations are not transmitted to the pedal lever (5) of the accelerator pedal (11). A spring deflection (59) of the elastic coupling element (9) in the direction of the force applied to the pedal lever is used as a control variable for controlling the actuator. The invention further relates to a method for controlling such a haptic accelerator pedal (11) and a correspondingly designed control unit (3). |
