  • Patent number: 11048287
    Abstract: A mounting assembly for a control pedal of a vehicle, which assembly includes two parallel walls, a pivot shaft extending between the walls, two locking arrangement arranged to pivotally retain the pivot shaft in a locked using position between the walls, and at least a control pedal rigidly provided on the pivot shaft. The control pedal and the pivot shaft are rotatable around an axis of rotation and the locking arrangement includes at least one lock protrusion extending radially from an outer surface and the respective wall includes at least one locking clamp and one stop, which clamp and stop the lock protrusion is arranged to engage with, to prevent a disengagement of the locking arrangement from the wall.

  • Patent number: 10843650
    Abstract: A pedal assembly for a motor vehicle includes a bracket with a first groove, a pedal shaft arranged in the first groove and a pedal arm pivotally coupled to the bracket via the pedal; an operating device and at least one locking device. The operating device is arranged for activation or control of a vehicular function and is pivotally coupled to the pedal arm. The locking device is arranged for locking of the pedal shaft in an operating position, and in the event of a collision, it is releasable to allow movement of the pedal shaft from the operating position to a safety position. The bracket has a second groove. A locking pin is arranged in a locking position in the second groove in order to prevent the release of the locking device.

  • Patent number: 10696259
    Abstract: A pedal assembly for a motor vehicle includes a pedal arm pivotably arranged about a rotation shaft at its first end when in an operating position. A bracket is rotatably arranged around the rotation shaft and connected to the first end of the pedal arm through a pedal connection shaft. A locking arrangement, when in a locked state, locks the bracket in a first bracket position relative the pedal arm such that the bracket rotates with the pedal arm, and the pedal arm is held in an operating position. When the locking arrangement changes from the locked state to an unlocked state, the bracket is unlocked from the pedal arm such that, under influence of gravity, the pedal arm is released from the rotation shaft and displaced from the operating position to a safety position, the first end of the pedal arm being connected to the rotation shaft via the pedal connection shaft and the bracket, and the bracket rotated relative the pedal arm to a second bracket position.

  • Patent number: 10281947
    Abstract: A mounting assembly for a control pedal of a vehicle includes two walls arranged in parallel in relation to each other, a pivot shaft extending between the walls, two locking structures arranged to pivotally retain the pivot shaft in a use position between the walls, and at least a control pedal rigidly provided on the pivot shaft. The control pedal and the pivot shaft are rotatable around an axis of rotation. Further, the mounting assembly is provided with a joint including at least one lock protrusion provided on at least true of the locking structures and an internal groove provided on at least one of the walls. The at least one lock protrusion is arranged to engage with the internal groove, when the locking structure is in a use position.

  • Publication number: 20170168519
    Abstract: A mechanical link system for a pedal device, comprising: a bracket device, a pedal arm pivotally arranged in relation to the bracket device between at least a first, second, and a third position, a first link arm, a second link arm, a first spring device, a second spring device wherein the pedal arm is mechanically interconnected to the first link arm, wherein the pivoting of the pedal arm from the first position towards the second position causes the first spring device to be compressed at a higher rate than the second spring device, wherein the pivoting of the pedal arm from the second position to the third position causes the second spring device to be compressed at a higher rate than the first spring device, wherein the pedal arm is mechanically interconnected to the first link arm via a guide element that is slidingly connected to the first link arm.
