Accelerator device

An accelerator device comprising:

• a support member attachable to a vehicle body;
• an accelerator pedal supported by the support member and rotatable from a full close position to a full open position;
• a biasing member configured to bias the accelerator pedal to the full close position;
• a frictional member located between a first member and a second member, the frictional member mounted to the first member and slidable on the second member, wherein the first member is one of the support member and the accelerator pedal, and the second member is an other of the support member and the accelerator pedal;
• and
• a resistance application unit configured, as a rotation angle of the accelerator pedal increases from the full close position, to increase a frictional force between the second member and the frictional member and to increase a rotational resistance applied from the frictional member to the accelerator pedal, wherein
• the frictional member includes a slidable portion, a first latch portion, and a second latch portion,
• the slidable portion is slidable on the second member,
• the first latch portion and the second latch portion define an interspace therebetween in a rotational direction, and
• the first member includes a rotation restrictive projection fitted between the first latch portion and the second latch portion.
