A vehicle pedal device rearward movement preventing device includes: a sub bracket coupled to a pedal bracket being rotatable about a second axis parallel to a first, and having one end extending beyond the pedal bracket toward a rear of the vehicle; and a support member mounted on a vehicle body-side member located closer to the driver's seat than the dash panel, supporting the one end of the sub bracket, and allowing the one end to be disengaged from the support member when the sub bracket is moved rearward with the rearward movement and displacement of the dash panel. When the one end is disengaged from the support member, the sub bracket is withdrawn and rotated about the second axis so that the one end is displaced toward a vehicle lower side, allowing the operation pedal pedal portion to be mechanically restrained from being moved rearward toward the driver's seat.

A deformation suppressing structure of a vehicle includes a dash panel separating a driving unit space for installing a weight component and a vehicle interior space for a passenger to ride, a brake component disposed inside the driving unit space and between the weight component and the dash panel to control a hydraulic pressure of a brake system, and a protecting member fixed to the dash panel and accommodating the brake component. The protecting member includes a guide surface configured such that a contact point at which the guide surface contacts the weight component changes during a backward movement of the weight component at the time of a collision of the vehicle, and a contacting portion arranged to contact the dash panel at a location above a fixing point at which the protecting member and the dash panel are fixed to each other and above the contact point.

The vehicle pedal device includes a pedal bracket fixed to a dash panel, a pedal, a lever bracket fixed to the dash panel, fixing means fixing the pedal bracket and the lever bracket with a predetermined holding force for fixed state, a rotating lever, a reinforcement for instrument panel, a lever rotator which is fixed to the reinforcement for instrument panel, and bracket deforming means fixed to the reinforcement for instrument panel. The bracket deforming means contacts with the pedal bracket to deform the pedal bracket downward when the pedal bracket moves rearward together with the dash panel. The rotating lever comprises a press portion which can press the fixing means or the pedal bracket downward with a force exceeding the holding force for fixed state when the rotating lever is rotated by the lever rotator.

A device for mounting a pedal of a vehicle including a support on which the pedal is mounted by a principal rotary shaft and a shearing mechanism connected to a fixed bodywork element of the vehicle, the shearing mechanism configured to radially shear off the principal shaft in a case of a displacement of the support relative to the bodywork element, to detach the pedal from the support. A secondary shaft is fixed to the pedal and is configured to position the pedal, which has been sheared off, in a new operating position.

When a dash panel P is displaced toward the rear of a vehicle upon vehicle collision, a small collision lever 60 is displaced to a release position at which a load corresponding to contact of a collision bracket 200 with a second contact portion 60A is applied to a swaging pin 15. When fixation between a rotation lever 50 and a second arm 40 via the small collision lever 60 by the swaging pin 15 is released, a step portion 21 is displaced to the vehicle front side.
