Abstract
A pedal device includes a pedal, a holder and at least one elastic member. The holder is configured to be displaceable in a predetermined direction by receiving, from one side in the predetermined direction, a force that is applied by the pedal associated with displacement of the pedal. The at least one elastic member supports the holder from the other side in the predetermined direction, and receives the force applied by the pedal from the one side in the predetermined direction via the holder, so as to be elastically deformed and to apply an elastic force to the holder. The holder includes at least one passage that allows foreign matter to pass.
Claims24
A pedal device comprising:
- a pedal;
- a holder configured to be displaceable in a predetermined direction by receiving, from one side in the predetermined direction, a force that is applied by the pedal associated with a displacement of the pedal;
- and
- at least one elastic member configured to support the holder from the other side in the predetermined direction, and configured to receive the force applied by the pedal from the one side in the predetermined direction via the holder, to be elastically deformed and to apply an elastic force to the holder,
- wherein the holder includes at least one passage that allows foreign matter to pass.
A pedal device comprising:
- a pedal;
- a holder configured to be displaceable in a predetermined direction by receiving, from one side in the predetermined direction, a force that is applied by the pedal associated with a displacement of the pedal;
- and
- at least one elastic member that is supported by the holder from the other side in the predetermined direction, and is configured to receive a force applied by the pedal from the one side in the predetermined direction, to be elastically deformed and to apply an elastic force to the holder, wherein
- the holder includes a support that supports the elastic member from the other side in the predetermined direction, and
- the support includes at least one passage that allows foreign matter to pass.
A pedal device comprising:
- a pedal;
- a holder configured to be displaceable in a predetermined direction by receiving, from one side in the predetermined direction, a force that is applied by the pedal associated with a displacement of the pedal;
- at least one elastic member that supports the holder from the other side in the predetermined direction, and receives a force applied by the pedal from the one side in the predetermined direction via the holder to be elastically deformed and to apply an elastic force to the holder;
- and
- a guide portion configured to guide the holder to be displaceable in the predetermined direction,
- wherein the guide portion includes a passage that allows foreign matter to pass.
A pedal device comprising:
- a pedal;
- an elastic member that is elastically deformed by a force applied by the pedal associated with a displacement of the pedal, to apply an elastic force to the pedal;
- and
- a housing that forms an accommodation chamber in which the elastic member is accommodated,
- wherein the housing includes at least one passage that allows foreign matter to pass from the accommodation chamber to an outside of the housing.
A pedal device comprising:
- a pedal;
- an elastic member that is elastically deformed by a force applied by the pedal associated with displacement of the pedal, to apply an elastic force to the pedal as a reaction force against the force;
- and
- a housing that defines an accommodation chamber in which the elastic member is accommodated,
- wherein the elastic member is supported by the housing while being accommodated in the accommodation chamber and includes at least one passage that allows foreign matter to pass from an inside of the accommodation chamber to an outside of the accommodation chamber.
A pedal device comprising:
- a pedal;
- an elastic member that is elastically deformed by a force applied by the pedal associated with a displacement of the pedal, to apply an elastic force to the pedal;
- and
- a housing that defines an accommodation chamber in which the elastic member is accommodated, wherein
- the elastic member is supported by the housing while being accommodated in the accommodation chamber, and
- the housing includes at least one passage that allows foreign matter to pass from an inside of the accommodation chamber to an outside of the accommodation chamber.
A pedal device comprising:
- a pedal;
- an elastic member that is elastically deformed by a force applied by the pedal associated with displacement of the pedal, to apply an elastic force to the pedal as a reaction force against the force;
- and
- a housing that defines an accommodation chamber in which the elastic member is accommodated, wherein
- the elastic member is supported by the housing while being accommodated in the accommodation chamber, and
- the elastic member is provided with at least one passage that is provided to penetrate the elastic member and to allow foreign matter to pass.
