Vehicle Pedal Controls proof against Misapplication of Accelerator

摘要

Vehicle Pedal Controls proof against Misapplication of Accelerator allows inversion-eversion operation of the acceleration pedal by the driver's foot for the better driver's distinction of the operation of the acceleration pedal from that of the brake pedal. And any of the invented vehicle control pedals, operable whether downward or transversely or inverse-eversely, provides for the braking of the vehicle with the strong push down of any pedal, whether the accelerator or the brake one,—that prevents the misapplication of the accelerator. In many embodiments of the invention, the pedal comprises the first part being impacted directly by the driver's foot, the last part being connected directly to the appropriate device of the vehicle (brakes or engine) and the detent holding said first part in mechanical relation to said last part, wherein said detent may be disengaged, for example, at misapplication of the acceleration pedal or certain other condition.
