C A N A D A ROGERS, BERESKIN /A ?ARR FILE NO. 5235-002 Title: HAND CONTROL Inventor: CRAIG ROBERT LENZ A hand control device for operating the accelerator and brake of a motor vehicle includes brake and accelerator control rods for extending from the respective accelerator and brake pedals of a motor vehicle to below the vehicle steering wheel. Clamps connected to one end of each control rod secure the control rods to a respective accelerator or brake pedals or pedal stalks and a handle member is pivotally connected to the other end of each control rod. Rotation of the handle member in a first direction, and with the connection between the handle member and the accelerator control rod acting as a fulcrum, causes longitudinal movement of the brake control rod, depression of the brake pedal, and operation of the brake. Rotation of the handle in a second direction, opposite to the first direction, and with the connection between the handle member and the brake control rod acting as a fulcrum, causes longitudinal movement of the accelerator control rod, depression of the accelerator pedal, and operation of the accelerator. |
