Abstract: A pressing face of an acceleration pedal, which is formed to slant such that a front portion thereof is positioned at a higher level than a rear portion thereof, is located in front of a pressing face of a brake pedal, which is formed to slant such that a front portion thereof is positioned at a higher level than a rear portion thereof. A slant angle of the pressing face of the acceleration pedal relative to a horizontal face is different from a slant angle of the pressing face of the brake pedal relative to the horizontal face in a side view. Accordingly, a lower structure of a driver's compartment which can improve the operation of the acceleration and brake pedals can be provided.

Abstract: A driving position adjusting apparatus for a vehicle comprises a driver's seat provided on a floor panel of a vehicle compartment, an operational pedal, such as an accelerator pedal, which is operated by a driver seated in the driver's seat, an incline-face portion which is provided on the floor panel, on which a heel of the driver operating the operational pedal is placed, the incline-face portion having an upper face which is inclined so that a front portion thereof is located at a higher position than a rear portion thereof, and a heel-placement height adjusting device which adjusts a height position of the driver's heel placed on the incline-face portion at least by moving up or down the incline-face portion.

Abstract: In a vehicle in which a driver's seat is provided on a floor panel and an operational pedal, such as a brake pedal, is provided in front of the driver's seat, a slant floor portion is provided in an area of the floor panel where a heel of a driver pressing the operational pedal is placed. This slant floor portion slants with a specified slant degree in such a manner that its front portion is positioned at a higher level than its rear portion. An interference avoidance portion which is comprised of a horizontal face portion is provided in front of the slant floor portion. This interference avoidance portion has a slant degree which is smaller than the specified slant degree of the slant floor portion so as to avoid interference with the heel of the driver's foot.

Abstract: A floor structure on a driver side of a vehicle where a control pedal, such as a brake pedal, adapted to be depressedly operated by a driver seated in a driver seat arranged at a front of a passenger compartment. The floor structure has a heel-placement zone which is provided on an approximately horizontal floor portion located rearward of a depressing point of the control pedal, and formed to have a frontward region adapted to allow a short person seated in the driver seat place his/her heel thereon and a rearward region adapted to allow a tall person seated in the driver seat place his/her heel thereon. The heel-placement zone includes an inclined surface portion formed in at least part thereof in such a manner as to rise relative to a surrounding area of the floor portion and has an upper surface extending obliquely upwardly and frontwardly.
