Foot pedal releasing arrangement for motor car, has wedge guided over another wedge such that pedal arm and lever are movable away from each other under cutting of pins and along tube during fastening former wedge at motor car part

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The arrangement (1) has a wedge (15) movably arranged between a pedal arm (3) and a pedal lever (4) for fastening to a motor car part i.e. steering cross beam. The wedge is guided over another wedge (16) such that the pedal arm and the pedal lever are movable away from each other under cutting of shear pins (13, 14) and along a bearing tube (5) during fastening the former wedge at the motor car part. The pedal lever, the latter wedge and a retaining plate (17) are welded or fixedly connected together with the bearing tube. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Arrangement for releasing a foot pedal of a motor car (claimed). Can also be used for releasing a brake pedal, an accelerator or clutch pedals. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The wedge is guided over the other wedge such that the pedal arm and the pedal lever are moveable away from each other under cutting of the shear pins and along the bearing tube during fastening the former wedge at the motor car part, thus connecting a foot pedal with a braking device in frontal collision while manufacturing the arrangement with compact structure, robust functionality and high reliability in different accident situations in a simple manner. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic exploded perspective view of an arrangement for releasing a foot pedal of a motor car. 1 : Foot pedal releasing arrangement 3 : Pedal arm 4 : Pedal lever 5 : Bearing tube 13, 14 : Shear pins 15, 16 : Wedges 17 : Retaining plate.
