Brake and accelerator robot
11486796 · 2022-11-01 · ·

A robot has brake and accelerator actuating levers (9, 10) and a rotary actuator (12) between them. A drive ring (16) is fast with an actuator drive member (14) and between them they captivate a journal bearing (17) for the brake actuating lever (9) on which a return spring (19) acts. Advance of the lever is via a cam member (31) adjacent it. Wherever the output drive member (14) from the rotary actuator is turned, the cam member is rotated correspondingly. For brake application, the drive member (14) is driven, clockwise in FIG. 2. For brake release, and accelerator application, the drive member is driven back and the cam member is disengaged from the lever (9) with unidirectional freedom. The drive ring (16) is carried on a central ‘clutch’ member (35). The central member (35) is journalled in a fixed clutch member (36), which carries a clutch operating winding (38) for clutching together the central member (35) and an accelerator drive member (39) journalled on the central member. A central drive shaft (41) is fast with the accelerator drive member (39) and passes through the length of the rotary actuator. When the winding is energised, rotation of the output drive member (14) is transferred to this central drive shaft (41) for the accelerator actuating lever (10) as well.
