    摘要: A foot operated controlling device comprises an oriental base, a pedal, a sensing module and a transmission mechanism. The pedal is connected to the oriental base and tiltable relative to the oriental base. The sensing module comprises a first sensor and a second sensor. The transmission mechanism is connected to the pedal and the sensing module. The transmission mechanism comprises a transmission rod and a swing rod. The transmission rod is connected to the pedal. The swing rod is connected to the transmission rod, and an extension direction along which the swing rod is oriented is independent of an extension direction along which the transmission rod is oriented.

    摘要: A hinge assembly includes a pivoting body attached to a base with a front surface. The pivoting body has a front end and rear end and at least one friction reducing member biased rearwardly against the front surface of the body. The friction reducing member is retractable relative to the pivoting body substantially parallel to the direction of the bias. The front surface has an inclined portion and an apex. When the pivoting body is in a rest position the at least one friction reducing member is maintained at the apex. The pivoting body is pivotable in a first direction to an activation that causes the friction reducing member to roll along the inclined portion with the friction reducing member retracting in the forward direction against the bias. When force is removed from the pivoting body in the activation position, the bias against the contoured front surface returns the pivoting body to the rest position via indirect forces.

    摘要: One embodiment of a bidirectional pedal assembly includes a base structure connectable to a vehicle structure and a pedal support member pivotally mounted on the base structure to be pivotable around an axis of rotation from a rest position in a first direction and in a second direction opposite to the first direction. First and second spring elements to urge the pedal support member to its rest position. First and second frictional mechanisms are disposed between the pedal support member and the first and second springs, such that the first and second frictional mechanisms, respectively, moves with the pedal support member and transmits force from the pedal support member to one of the first and second spring elements. Each frictional mechanism is arranged to increase a frictional resistance to retard pivotal movements of the pedal support member upon force being transmitted through the respective frictional mechanism.

    摘要: A foot control mechanism for a dental apparatus has a tiltable actuation member mounted on a base part and an arrangement for holding the tiltable actuation member in a neutral position, which requires sufficient force to move the actuation member in either direction from the neutral position to a switch position. To accomplish this, the structure includes a mounting arrangement utilizing a pair of spaced-apart bearings extending parallel to each other which bearings receive projections on the other element and, preferably, a catch member is provided which provides a resistant force from movement from the neutral position.

    摘要: A manually operable control is provided for effecting acceleration and deceleration of an engine by selective actuation of an engine fuel control device. The control includes an output section comprising first, second and third arms mounted for pivoting about a common axis. A hand throttle linkage is connected directly to the first arm for swinging the latter among selected angular positions and for fixing the first arm in said positions. A foot throttle linkage is connected directly to the second arm, which in turn is connected to the fuel control device. The first and second arms are located on opposite sides of the third arm and have respective abutment portions which extend axially towards the third arm and are disposed so as to respectively be in the paths of movement of a pair of oppositely extending abutment portions of the third arm. A double-coil spring is mounted on the three arms such that, as considered in a first direction of swinging movement of the three arms, a central spring portion located between the two coils engages the trailing side of the third arm while the opposite ends of the spring are respectively engaged with the leading sides of the first and second arms, the respective leading surfaces of the abutment portions of the first and second arms thus being biased into engagement with the respective trailing sides of the oppositely extending abutment portions of the third arm. A desired fuel control device setting can be selected by shifting the hand throttle linkage to and fixing it in a desired position, the torsion spring acting together with the abutment surfaces to transmit the motion of the first arm to the second arm by way of the third arm, the motion of the third arm being transmitted to the fuel control device. The foot throttle linkage floats or moves freely with the third arm when the latter is actuated by the hand throttle linkage. The foot throttle linkage is used to override the fuel control device setting preselected by the hand throttle linkage. For this purpose, the foot throttle linkage includes a two-piece foot pedal having respective toe and heel operable sections pivoted about a common axis for selective operation for respectively initiating acceleration and deceleration of the engine. The toe operable section of the foot pedal can be lifted upwardly by hand to shut off the flow of fuel to the engine. When the foot pedal is released, the torsion spring acts to return the fuel control device to its preselected setting.
