Embodiments herein are directed to a pedal pad assembly. The pedal pad assembly includes an outer housing that has a cavity, an inner housing that has an outer surface and is slidably received within the cavity of the outer housing, a pedal pad coupled to the inner housing and is configured to translate the inner housing along a movement axis in response to a load applied to the pedal pad and a sensor assembly that includes a plurality of target members coupled to the outer surface of the inner housing and a sensor configured to sense a position of at least one target member. During a translation of the inner housing along the movement axis, at least one target member of the plurality of target members moves with the inner housing from a first position to a second position indicative of the movement of the inner housing within the cavity.

An organ-type electronic pedal device includes a high-load spring module and a hysteresis lever. If necessary, the organ-type pedal device enables different pedal efforts, strokes, and hysteresis operating forces to be tuned as required for individual vehicle models by changing the parts of the hysteresis lever.

An organ-type electronic pedal apparatus includes a high-load spring module and a hysteresis lever and configured for tuning a pedal effort, a stroke, and a hysteretic force, which are required to vary depending on the types of vehicles, by changing components of the hysteresis lever, as necessary.

A foldable pedal apparatus for a vehicle is provided. The foldable pedal apparatus is configured such that pedal pads protrude into an interior of a vehicle to be exposed toward a driver in a pop-up state in a manual driving mode in which the driver manually drives, and the pedal pads are inserted into a case on a footrest panel not to be exposed toward the driver in a hidden state in an autonomous driving mode in which the driver does not manually drive, and is configured to be able to operate and generate a signal related to a pedal function by pressure when the pedal pads have been popped up by pressure-based operating pedal assemblies.

An embodiment electronic pedal apparatus includes a pedal housing and an accelerator pedal assembly and a brake pedal assembly coupled to the pedal housing and configured to move along different movement trajectories when the accelerator pedal assembly and the brake pedal assembly are operated. In an embodiment, the accelerator pedal assembly is compressed and moved upward when the accelerator pedal assembly is operated, and the brake pedal assembly is compressed and moved downward when the brake pedal assembly is operated.

A pedal assembly includes an upper housing member separated from a lower housing member defining a cavity. The pedal arm is configured to move within the cavity and apply a force to the upper housing member. A pair of fixed magnets are attached to the upper and lower housing. Both of the fixed magnets are orientated with similar polarity facing in the same direction. A moveable magnetic is positioned between the pair of fixed magnets, the moveable magnet positioned with a polarity that is opposite of the pair of fixed magnets. A magnetic sensor is positioned in the housing. When a load is applied to the pedal arm, the pedal arm applies a force to the upper housing member moving the moveable magnet in the housing wherein the magnetic sensor senses movement of the moveable magnet indicative of the amount of depression of the pedal arm.

A pedal assembly includes a housing having a cavity. A pedal arm is at least partially received in the cavity. The pedal arm is configured to move within the cavity relative to the housing. At least two pivot levers are positioned within the cavity and configured to pivot upon a contact by the pedal arm. A spring retainer is formed in the housing. The spring retainer has a spring positioned therein. A spring member is disposed about the spring retainer and is moveable about the spring retainer. At least two sensors are attached to the spring housing. At least two sensor assemblies are positioned in the housing and configured to sense an amount of travel of the at least two sensors. When a load is applied to the pedal pad, the pedal arm contacts the at least two pivot members pivoting the pivot members and moving the spring housing wherein the sensors movement is sensed by the respective at least two sensor assemblies indicative of the amount of depression of the pedal pad.

Embodiments herein are directed to a pedal pad assembly that includes a housing, a pedal pad, at least one link member, at least one sliding member, and a sensor. The pedal pad is coupled to the housing and configured to translate the housing along a first movement axis in response to a load applied to the pedal pad. A proximal end of the at least one link member is coupled to an outer surface of the housing. The at least one sliding member is coupled to a distal end of the at least one link member. The sensor is configured to sense a position of the at least one sliding member along a second movement axis. During a translation of the housing along the first movement axis, the proximal end of the at least one link member moves translating the at least one sliding member about the second movement axis.
