Abstract
A vehicle pedal has a pedal bar (16) and a pedal shaft (18) which is connected to the latter in a rotationally fixed manner and on which bearing locations (28, 32) are arranged. Up until now, the pedal bar (16) has usually been pinned to the pedal shaft (18) with the aid of an aluminum block between the bearing locations. In order to reduce the installation outlay during the production of a gas-pedal module (10), it is proposed that the pedal bar (16) be integrally formed on the pedal shaft (18) to the side of the two bearing locations (28, 32). This simplifies the production of the pedal lever (14) and the installation of the latter in the bearing arrangement (28, 32).

A vehicle pedal comprising a pedal bar (16) and a pedal shaft (18) said pedal bar (16) is connected to the pedal shaft (18) in a rotationally fixed manner and on said pedal shaft (18) two bearing locations (28, 32) are provided, wherein the pedal bar (16, 20) is integrally formed on the pedal shaft (18) to the side of the two bearing locations (28, 32), wherein the two bearing locations of the pedal shaft (18) have bearings (28, 32) which are secured in bearing blocks (26, 30) arranged on a base plate (12), wherein a plastic sleeve (40) is arranged between the bearing locations (28, 32) of the pedal shaft (18), in a rotationally fixed manner in relation to the base plate (12), and exerts a radial contact pressure on the circumferential surface of the pedal shaft (18), wherein the plastic sleeve (40) has at least one slot in axial direction.
A vehicle pedal comprising a pedal bar (16) and a pedal shaft (18) said pedal bar (16) is connected to the pedal shaft (18) in a rotationally fixed manner and on said pedal shaft (18) two bearing locations (28, 32) are provided, wherein the pedal bar (16, 20) is integrally formed on the pedal shaft (18) to the side of the two bearing locations (28, 32), wherein the two bearing locations of the pedal shaft (18) have bearings;
- (28, 32) which are secured in bearing blocks (26, 30) arranged on a base plate (12), wherein at least one prestressed restoring spring (46, 48) is provided between the base plate (12) and the pedal bar (16), wherein a plastic sleeve (40), a sleeve-like contact-pressure spring (44) of the latter and two restoring springs formed as helical springs (46, 48) which are subjected to torsion are arranged concentrically around the pedal shaft (18).
A vehicle pedal comprising a pedal bar (16) and a pedal shaft (18) said pedal bar (16) is connected to the pedal shaft (18) in a rotationally fixed manner and on said pedal shaft (18) two bearing locations (28, 32) are provided, wherein the pedal bar (16, 20) is integrally formed on the pedal shaft (18) to the side of the two bearing locations (28, 32), wherein the two bearing locations of the pedal shaft (18) have bearings (28, 32) which are secured in bearing blocks (26, 30) arranged on a base plate (12), wherein arranged on the base plate (12) is a spring clip (62), of which legs widen to receive between them the pedal bar (16) in its kickdown position.
A vehicle pedal comprising a pedal bar (16) and a pedal shaft (18) said pedal bar (16) is connected to the pedal shaft (18) in a rotationally fixed manner and on said pedal shaft (18) two bearing locations (28, 32) are provided, wherein the pedal bar (16, 20) is integrally formed on the pedal shaft (18) to the side of the two bearing locations (28, 32), wherein the two bearing locations of the pedal shaft (18) have bearings (28, 32) which are secured in bearing blocks (26, 30) arranged on a base plate (12), wherein arranged on the base plate (12) is an angle (58, 60) which projects, as an idling stop, into pivot path of the pedal bar (16), wherein the angle (58) and a spring clip (62) are fastened together on the base plate (12) by a rivet (64).
