A mechanism for adjusting the angular position of a vehicle pedal includes a motor for generating and transmitting rotary motion to a rotating member, a first pedal assembly having a first support frame with a first slotted hole, rotatably supported on a first fulcrum and supporting a first pedal, a first motion conversion mechanism, having a first rotating member rotatable about a first rotation axis and a first translating member, receiving and converting rotational motion into translational motion, and a first pin, for joint translation with the first translating member and sliding inside the first slotted hole. Sliding of the first pin draws the first support frame in rotation about the first fulcrum between a first and a second angular position. The mechanism includes a second pedal assembly. The first rotating member is connected to the motor to receive rotary motion. A second rotating member of a second motion conversion mechanism is connected in rotation to the first rotating member through a flexible transmission.

A pedal assembly, including an upper housing and a lower housing with an upper surface positioned below the upper housing. A receiving cavity is positioned in the lower housing, with at least a portion positioned below the upper surface in the pedal assembly vertical direction. A pedal arm having a pivot end and an opposite pedal pad, pivotally coupled to the upper housing at the pivot end. The pedal arm is movable between a stowed position and a use position, wherein in the stowed position, the pedal pad is positioned in the receiving cavity and below the upper surface in the pedal assembly vertical direction such that access to the pedal pad is prohibited. In the use position, the pedal pad is positioned above the receiving cavity and the upper surface in the pedal assembly vertical direction such that access to the pedal pad is permitted.

A work vehicle including a floor, a forward pedal arm, a reverse pedal arm, a forward rotation shaft, and a reverse rotation shaft. The floor has a first insertion hole and a second insertion hole. The forward pedal arm is placed in the first insertion hole and provided with a forward pedal. The reverse pedal arm is placed in the second insertion hole and provided with a reverse pedal. The forward rotation shaft serves as a rotation shaft of the forward pedal arm, and is oriented so that an outer end thereof is directed toward the rear of a vehicle body of the work vehicle. The reverse rotation shaft serves as a rotation shaft of the reverse pedal arm, and is oriented so that an outer end thereof is directed toward the rear of the vehicle body.

A vehicle includes a controller programmed to identify a seating position in the vehicle corresponding to each of a plurality of nomadic devices in communication with the vehicle. The controller is configured to receive at least one seating profile from each of the nomadic devices and adjust seating parameters for each of the seating positions according to the seating profile received from the corresponding nomadic device.

An automatic throttle for a hydrostatic transmission having a forward pedal and a reverse pedal. Each pedal actuates a swash plate on a hydraulic pump for forward and reverse travel. A first bell crank and a second bell crank are connected to the forward pedal and the reverse pedal respectively. Each bell crank may pull a Bowden cable connected to an engine throttle to increase engine speed when either of the pedals is depressed.

An auxiliary brake stabilizing support carries an instructor's brake in a given car. The support interacts with both the floor section and the firewall section of a car in front of the passenger seat, without necessarily being secured to these sections by penetrating fasteners. The brake support fits against a firewall of a car and is elevated with respect to the firewall to carry the brake over a passage with open lateral edges and supporting standoffs at top and bottom edges of the platform. A massive anchor plate rests against the floor at the base of the firewall to resist slippage. A hinged connection between the platform and anchor plate allow precise fit with the configuration of the car, while allowing the stabilizing support to fold into a compact shipping configuration.

The controller is configured to receive at least one seating profile from each of the nomadic devices and adjust seating parameters for each of the seating positions according to the seating profile received from the corresponding nomadic device.

A work vehicle including a floor (108), a forward pedal arm (41), a reverse pedal arm (51), a forward rotation shaft (42), and a reverse rotation shaft (52). The floor has a first insertion hole (108a) and a second insertion hole (108b). The forward pedal arm is placed in the first insertion hole and provided with a forward pedal (15). The reverse pedal arm is placed in the second insertion hole and provided with a reverse pedal (16). The forward rotation shaft serves as a rotation shaft of the forward pedal arm, and is oriented so that an outer end thereof is directed toward the rear of a vehicle body of the work vehicle. The reverse rotation shaft serves as a rotation shaft of the reverse pedal arm, and is oriented so that an outer end thereof is directed toward the rear of the vehicle body.
