PEDAL-TYPE CONTROL SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: teaching aids. SUBSTANCE: proposed pedal control system is designed for teaching a person to drive a car. Additional pedal are introduced into pedal system to act onto standard one-arm pedals of clutch, brake and accelerator. Mechanism of system is made in from of articulated shafts with torsion springs. One end of shafts is provided with doubling one-arm pedals and other end, with levers contacting through rollers directly with standards one-arm pedals of car. Contact is one-sided at working motion, and return is independent, with limiting of travel by cams to stops. Invention simplifies kinematics of system making it possible to operate mechanisms in one direction by means of doubling additional pedals. EFFECT: possibility of control of standard pedals by instructor in case of necessity. 1 dwg
