PEDAL EFFORT ADJUSTING APPARATUS OF ACCELERATOR PEDAL

摘要

An accelerator pedal effort adjusting apparatus can easily adjust the elasticity of an elastic member by changing the length of the elastic member according to a simple rotation of a movable plate, thereby easily adjusting the accelerator pedal effort as desired. The apparatus can be commonly used with various types of accelerator pedals. The apparatus includes: a guide rod installed such that it is mounted to the bottom surface of the inner space of a pedal arm housing and is directed toward a pedal aim; a movable plate movably fitted over the guide rod such that the movable plate can be moved along the guide rod; and an elastic member installed in such a way that the elastic member is supported by both the pedal arm and the movable plate at opposite ends thereof, and applies a reaction force to a pedal pad.
