Abstract
A vehicle includes: an accelerator pedal 3 rotatably supported by a vehicle body 1; a brake pedal 4 located at left of the accelerator pedal 3 and rotatably supported by the vehicle body 1; and a lock 7 that restrains the brake pedal 4 in a state where the brake pedal 4 is rotated to a parking position. The lock 7 is coupled to the accelerator pedal 3 through a link 2, and when the accelerator pedal 3 rotates from an initial position, releases restraint of the brake pedal 4 at the parking position by the link 2 in conjunction with rotation of the accelerator pedal 3. The link 2 extends from left of the accelerator pedal 3 toward the lock 7 and moves in the front-rear directions in accordance with rotation of the accelerator pedal 3.
Claims9
A vehicle comprising:
- an accelerator pedal rotatably supported by a vehicle body;
- a brake pedal located at left of the accelerator pedal and rotatably supported by the vehicle body;
- a lock that restrains the brake pedal in a state where the brake pedal is rotated to a parking position;
- and
- a rotation lever rotatably supported by the vehicle body, wherein
- the lock is coupled to the accelerator pedal through a link, and when the accelerator pedal rotates from an initial position, releases restraint of the brake pedal at the parking position by the link in conjunction with rotation of the accelerator pedal,
- the rotation lever couples the accelerator pedal and the link to each other, and is coupled to the accelerator pedal to be movable relative to the accelerator pedal,
- the link extends from left of the accelerator pedal toward the lock and moves in front-rear directions in accordance with rotation of the accelerator pedal, and
- a coupling position of the link relative to the lock moves in the front-rear directions.
A vehicle comprising:
- an accelerator pedal rotatably supported by a vehicle body;
- a brake pedal located at left of the accelerator pedal and rotatably supported by the vehicle body;
- a lock that restrains the brake pedal in a state where the brake pedal is rotated to a parking position;
