Abstract: An improved vehicle control parts-mounting arrangement in an electrically powered motor vehicle having a traction motor, a traction motor room for housing the motor, and two side frame members extending longitudinally along both sides of the traction motor room. The arrangement comprises a first and second group of parts mounted to a supporting plate which extends across an upper open portion of the traction motor room with each end secured to the corresponding side frame member. The first parts group includes a brake pedal, a brake booster, and its energizing vacuum pump. The second parts group includes an accelerator pedal and an acceleration control unit. The supporting plate is provided with an aperture through which the mounted brake booster vacuum pump extends into the traction motor room.

Abstract: A disc brake includes two pad supporting levers which are pivotally mounted on a single pivot. One of the levers has a first adjustment bolt which abuts the other lever to control the maximum clearance between the pads and a second which abuts the bracket on which the levers are pivotally mounted to control the clearance between one of the pads and the rotatable disc. A linkage which interconnects the levers induces same to rotate and clamp the pads against the rotatable disc by (a) a foot pedal controlled hydraulic servo integrated with the bracket and/or (b) a cable arrangement operatively connected with a hand brake.
