ACCELERATOR PEDAL FOR VEHICLE WHICH HAS HYSTERESIS
First Claim
1. An accelerator pedal for a vehicle, the accelerator pedal comprising:
- a housing;
a cylindrical hinge which is connected to the housing;
a main pedal arm which is coupled to one side of the hinge and rotates in a first direction in close contact with a first action point of the one side of the hinge when a predetermined force is applied;
an auxiliary pedal arm which is coupled to the other side of the hinge and rotates in a second direction in close contact with a second action point of the other side of the hinge by an elastic force when the force applied to the main pedal arm is removed; and
a spring which is coupled to a bottom of one end of the auxiliary pedal arm and applies the elastic force to the auxiliary pedal arm.
