The invention relates to a floor mounted brake pedal for an electrically controlled vehicle brake, comprising a first pedal lever, a second pedal lever arranged in front of the first pedal lever, a pedal platform having a stepping area and a shaft protruding from the stepping area in a forward direction, a first pedal sensor for detecting a position of the brake pedal, and a second pedal sensor for independently detecting the position of the brake pedal.

A foldable pedal apparatus for a vehicle includes: a pedal housing rotatably coupled to a footrest panel disposed below a driver seat, configured to come in contact with a front inclined surface of the footrest panel when rotating forward, and configured to come in contact with a bottom surface of the footrest panel when rotating rearward; a brake pedal pad rotatably coupled to the pedal housing and configured to be rotated by a driver; and an accelerator pedal pad rotatably coupled to the pedal housing and configured to be rotated by the driver, wherein when the pedal housing is in contact with the front inclined surface of the footrest panel by rotating forward, the brake pedal pad and the accelerator pedal pad are folded to be positioned between the front inclined surface and the pedal housing and are kept in a hidden state.

A pedal system for a vehicle, where the vehicle is configured for operating in a first vehicle mode for flight operational use and a second vehicle mode for road operational use. The pedal system includes a first pedal arrangement having a first lower pedal part and a first upper pedal part arranged in connection to each other. In the first vehicle mode the first lower pedal part is configured for activating a rudder function of the vehicle, and in the first vehicle mode the first upper pedal part is configured for activating a braking function of the vehicle. In the second vehicle mode the first lower pedal part and the first upper pedal part are configured for cooperating with each other to activate a throttle function of the vehicle.

An operation stabilization system for a foldable pedal apparatus of a vehicle includes: a first battery and a second battery disposed in the vehicle; a first vehicle controller and a second vehicle controller receiving power from the first battery and the second battery, respectively, and transmitting operation signals, respectively; a foldable pedal controller disposed in the foldable pedal apparatus to generate control signals by receiving the signals from the first vehicle controller and the second vehicle controller; and a first motor and a second motor disposed in the foldable pedal apparatus and connected to the first battery and the second battery to receive the power from the first and second batteries, respectively.

A pedal device for a vehicle includes a first link that is pivotally supported at one end and receives a pedaling force of a driver, a return spring that biases the first link toward a standard position, a second link supported so as to be pivotable in a direction opposite to that of the first link, and a third link transmitting force and displacement between the first and second links. The return spring has a first and second ends connected to the first and second links, respectively, A moment in which a tensile force of the return spring pivots the first link toward the standard position is greater than a moment in which the tensile force of the return spring pivots the first link away from the standard position via the first end.

According to an aspect of the invention, the brake pedal of an agricultural vehicle can be used as an interface to control auto fold/unfold sequences on a sprayer. This can allow functionality to be moved from a button, such as on the armrest, to the brake pedal using a controller, sensing and software. In one aspect, a button on the armrest can start the sequence, as long as the brake pedal is depressed. After the button is pressed, the operator can remove his hand from the button, but maintain the brake pedal depressed. If the operator lifts his foot off of the pedal, or initiates a different boom control button press, the sequence can stop. This can advantageously allow the operator to have the use of his hands during the sequence.

The disclosure relates to devices, systems, and methods for controlling acquisition parameters when carrying out a medical x-ray examination, wherein the device includes a lever. The lever includes a deflectably supported lever arm, which is embodied to be deflected from a rest position to a first end point, in particular a kick-down stop point, and to a second end point, by a force, in particular the force of a foot and/or the force of a hand, wherein a first value of at least one acquisition parameter of the medical x-ray examination is determined by the deflection, wherein the first value is dependent on a measure of deflection of the deflection of the lever arm from the rest position to the first end point, wherein a second value of at least one acquisition parameter of the medical x-ray examination is able to be determined by a deflection of the lever arm to the second end point, and wherein the second value is independent of the measure of deflection of the deflection of the lever arm from the rest position.
