An adjustable control pedal assembly ( 10 ) for a vehicle includes a bracket ( 12 ) adapted for mounting on the vehicle, an adjustment member ( 30 ) pivotally attached to the bracket ( 12 ), and a control mechanism ( 14 ) mounted to the adjustment member ( 30 ), for pivotal movement of the adjustment member ( 30 ) about a first axis ( 34 ) generally horizontal and transverse to the vehicle, and a pedal arm ( 16 ) attached to the control mechanism ( 14 ) for pivotal movement relative thereto about a second axis ( 52 ) parallel to the first axis ( 34 ). The control mechanism ( 14 ) includes an electronic control means ( 66 ) responsive to the degree of relative movement of the adjustment member ( 30 ) and the pedal arm ( 16 ) to produce a control signal proportional to such movement, and a motor ( 18 ) mounted on the bracket ( 12 ) adjacent the control mechanism ( 14 ), and a drive means ( 20 ) connecting the motor ( 18 ) to the control mechanism ( 14 ) for moving the control mechanism ( 14 ) and pedal arm ( 16 ) as a unit. |
