A method of and an adjustment device for adjusting an automobile control pedals capable of pivotably adjusting the control pedal about an axis of pedal arm rotation relative to a reaction member, such as the eyelet of a cylinder pushrod for a brake pedal or a flexible cable in case of an accelerator pedal. The adjustment device allows the control pedal to be positioned to suit the needs of a particular driver. The control pedal can be pivotable attached to a frame in any conventional manner, such as with a pivot pin. The adjustment device is mounted alongside the control pedal and to the pushrod eyelet without the need of additional support hardware other than a device for acting on the control pedal. The adjustment device includes a rotatable member for causing pivotable movement of the pedal arm relative to the reaction member. The adjustment device is maintained a predetermined distance from the pivot of the control pedal arm by a spacing device, such as a link. The adjustment device also includes a rotatable driving device for rotating the rotatable member about its axis of rotation to produce a corresponding displacement of the control pedal arm. |
