Pedal device for motor vehicle

摘要

A pedal device includes a pedal (15) suspended from a supporting shaft (16) penetrating through a pair of lengthwise walls (13) of a pedal bracket (11), and shaft detachment means (30) configured to allow one end portion of the supporting shaft to be disengaged from a corresponding one of the lengthwise walls at the time of forward collision. A pedal stroke sensor (25) is arranged on the pedal bracket at a distance from the pedal, and the pedal stroke sensor and the pedal are connected to each other by a transmission mechanism (33). The transmission mechanism includes permission means (36) for permitting the end portion of the supporting shaft to be disengaged from the corresponding lengthwise wall at the time of forward collision.
