Description

Angle-adjustable footrest device

technical field

The invention relates to a footrest device, in particular to an angle-adjustable footrest device.

Background technique

Usually, people only need to put their feet on the clutch pedal in the process of starting, shifting and stopping in the process of driving a vehicle, and the driver's feet can only be placed on the bottom plate in a large amount of time, so that it is shorter during driving time. Feeling uncomfortable for a long time. Therefore, it is proposed in the prior art to add a footrest next to the clutch pedal to rest your feet when you do not need to step on the clutch, which can reduce the driver's fatigue and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. However, the currently commonly used footrests are all foamed foam footrests with fixed angles and cannot be adjusted, which cannot meet the needs of drivers of various heights. When driving, it is easy to cause fatigue on the left foot and increase the risk of driving.

detailed description

In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present invention, not to limit the present invention.

1 and 2 are schematic diagrams of an angle-adjustable footrest device according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the footrest device 100 includes a footrest 120 , a first bracket 130 , a cylinder assembly 150 , a second bracket 160 and a third bracket 140 . The bottom end of the footrest 120 is pivotally connected to the bottom plate of the vehicle body (not shown), one end of the cylinder assembly 150 is pivotally connected to the bottom plate of the vehicle body, and the other end of the cylinder assembly 150 is pivotally connected to the top of the footrest 120 . Preferably, the other end of the cylinder assembly 150 is pivotally connected to the back of the top of the footrest 120 .

Wherein, the footrest 120 includes a metal footrest layer 122 and a foam pad layer 123 . The foam pad layer 123 can be fixed on the metal footrest layer 122 by means of sticking or the like. The other end of the cylinder assembly 150 is pivotally connected to the back of the metal footrest layer 122 .

The first bracket 130 and the second bracket 160 can be fixed on the bottom plate of the vehicle body by means of welding or the like. The bottom end of the footrest 120 is pivotally connected to the first bracket 130 ; in the illustrated embodiment, the bottom end of the metal footrest layer 122 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 130 through the first rotating shaft 125 .

One end of the cylinder assembly 150 is pivotally connected to the second bracket 160 , and the other end of the cylinder assembly 150 is pivotally connected to the third bracket 140 . In the illustrated embodiment, the third bracket 140 can be fixed on the back of the top of the footrest 120 by welding or the like, for example, the third bracket 140 is welded and fixed on the back of the metal footrest layer 122, and one end of the cylinder assembly 150 The second rotating shaft 152 is rotatably connected to the second bracket 160 , and the other end of the cylinder assembly 150 is rotatably connected to the third bracket 140 through the third rotating shaft 151 .

The above is the specific structure of the footrest device 100 in one embodiment of the present invention, and its working principle will be briefly described below.

As shown in Figure 3, when the driver's left foot does not need to step on the clutch, the left foot can be placed on the foam pad layer 123 of the footrest 120, and an active force is applied to the footrest 120, and the footrest 120 is under force. Under the action, the cylinder assembly 150 is driven to contract, so that the footrest 120 rotates downward around the first shaft 125 , and the cylinder assembly 150 rotates relative to the second shaft 152 and the third shaft 151 . When the foot joint reaches a comfortable angle, the footrest 120 expands and contracts with the cylinder of the cylinder assembly 150 to realize the adjustment of the angle A of the footrest 120 .

To sum up, in the embodiment of the present invention, the bottom end of the footrest 120 of the footrest device 100 is pivotally connected to the bottom plate of the vehicle body. Rotate the connection, the angle of the footrest 120 can be adjusted to meet the needs of different heights: for taller people, the driver's seat is relatively rearward, so the angle of the footrest 120 needs to be increased; for shorter people , the position of the driver's seat is relatively forward, so the angle of the footrest 120 needs to be reduced to meet the comfort of the feet.

The above descriptions are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection of the present invention. within range.
