Abstract
In an accelerator pedal device, a fitted portion of a pedal is inserted into a groove portion of a fitting portion by sliding the fitted portion, and then the fitted portion and the groove portion are fitted to each other. Furthermore, an engagement hook portion of the fitted portion is engaged with an engagement hole. Still further, an upper wall of the bracket contacts a stopper portion of the mount, so that the engagement hole is restrained from being displaced in a direction away from the fitted portion.
