Abstract: An apparatus may include a pedal pad located on a front lower side of a driver seat so as to be depressed by a driver, a first hinge pivotally coupling the pedal pad to a pedal bracket fixedly mounted to the front lower side of the driver seat, and a second hinge having an elastically-operated articulated structure and mounted to the pedal bracket in such a manner as to be connected to the pedal pad, the second hinge being spaced apart from the first hinge.

Abstract: A heads-up speed sensing display and control system for apprising an operator of the risk of operating a vehicle at various speeds has a risk indicator display with a plurality of illuminable elements, such as three different colored LEDs, illuminable in a plurality of patterns, each of the plurality of patterns having a predetermined correlation to vehicle speed, such as green for safe, yellow for caution and red for hazardous. A speed sensor, such as a Hall-effect device is coupled to a driven element of the vehicle, like a speedometer cable, and causes the speed sensor to generate a signal indicative of vehicle speed. A control unit receives the speed signal and selects an illumination pattern to indicate the risk of operation at the speed the vehicle is then traveling. The display may be wired or wireless and be attached to a windshield, face guard or helmet.

Abstract: A self-contained accessory for an analog metering device such as a speedometer or tachometer. The accessory includes a sensor which is selectively adjustable to align with a plurality of positions in the range of movement of an output needle of the analog metering device. In the preferred embodiment, the sensor is alignable with gradation marks, e.g., miles per hour indicia on a speedometer, and the accessory provides a clear indication when a needle reaches a selected gradation. The indication alerts a user that a selected gradation has been reached by an output needle of the analog metering device. The accessory attaches to a cover of the analog metering device and allows adjustment of sensor position without removal of the accessory from the cover.

Abstract: This invention is a devise which when installed into its monitoring location in conjunction with vehicles transmission, shall increase the rotation of the speedometer cable and as a result, speedometer dials and odometers indicating speed and distance in miles shall automatically correct readings to be in kilometers without the changing or modifying in anyway existing vehicle speedometer dials. Removal of the devise, permits dials to again be read in miles. Installation and removal are very simple.

Abstract: A housing is mounted on the roof of a vehicle. The housing has a top parallel to the roof of a vehicle and a plurality of sides extending perpendicularly between the top of the housing and the roof of the vehicle. Translucent visual indicating devices are provided on the top and each of the sides of the housing and visually indicate the registration number of the vehicle. A lamp device in the housing illuminates the indicating devices and produces a plurality of colors corresponding to the speed of the vehicle.
