Pedal structure for motor vehicles

摘要

A parking brake pedal structure is disclosed, wherein a parking brake pedal comprises a pedal arm and a pedal pad mounted at an end portion of the pedal arm. The pedal arm includes an arm body and an arm end portion for mounting the pedal pad thereon. The arm end portion includes a pad mounting upper portion for mounting the pedal bad thereon and a pad mounting side portion for mounting the pedal pad side portion of the pedal pad thereon. The pad mounting side portion is provided with a swelling portion which laterally protrudes to the same height as the thickness of the pedal pad side portion. The swelling portion advantageously prevents the driver's foot from being caught by the pedal pad side portion of the pedal pad. Therefore, it hardly occurs that the driver's foot is caught by the pedal pad.
