Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9605547A1] An adjustment device (10) for an automobile control pedal (20) which is capable of pivotably adjusting the control pedal (20) relative to a datum point, such as the eyelet (36) of a cylinder pushrod (34). The adjustment device (10) allows the control pedal (20) to be optimally positioned to suit the needs of a particular driver. The control pedal (20) can be pivotally attached to a frame (14) in any conventional manner, such as with a pivot pin (24). The adjustment device (10) is mounted alongside the control pedal (20) and to the pushrod eyelet (36) without the need of additional support hardware other than a device for maintaining a predetermined distance between the pushrod eyelet (36) and the pivot pin (24) of the control pedal (20). Consequently, the adjustment device can be readily adapted to fit conventional control pedal assemblies without significant modification. The adjustment device (10) includes a camming device (38) for causing pivotable movement of the pedal arm (20) relative to the datum point (36).
