PEDAL REACTION SIMULATOR FOR VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240294154 titled 'PEDAL REACTION SIMULATOR FOR VEHICLE
The abstract describes a pedal reaction simulator for a vehicle, which includes a cylinder, a rotation element, a piston, elastic elements, a rotation resistance device, and an adjustment device.
- The cylinder houses the rotation element, which in turn houses the piston and includes sliding grooves for movement.
- The piston is supported by elastic elements within the rotation element.
- A rotation resistance device provides resistance to the rotation of the rotation element.
- An adjustment device on the cylinder allows for the adjustment of the resistance provided by the rotation resistance device.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in driving simulators for training purposes. - It can also be integrated into vehicle testing equipment for research and development purposes.
Problems Solved: - Provides a realistic simulation of pedal reactions for training and testing purposes. - Allows for adjustable resistance to mimic real-world driving conditions.
Benefits: - Enhances the accuracy and effectiveness of driving simulations. - Provides a customizable experience for different training and testing needs.
Commercial Applications: - Driving schools and training centers can use this technology to improve driver education. - Automotive companies can utilize this simulator for testing and development of vehicle components.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the adjustable resistance provided by the rotation resistance device improve the simulation experience? 2. What are the potential cost implications of integrating this technology into driving simulators or testing equipment?
Original Abstract Submitted
a pedal reaction simulator for the vehicle includes a cylinder providing a first accommodation space therein; a rotation element rotatably mounted in the first accommodation space, providing a second accommodation space therein, and including at least one sliding groove of a predetermined shape penetrating the second accommodation space formed on an external circumferential wall; a piston including at least one sliding guide member corresponding to the sliding groove and movably provided in the second accommodation space through a first end portion of the rotation element; a first elastic element mounted in the second accommodation space to elastically support the piston; a rotation resistance device provided in the cylinder, including a second elastic element, and providing a resistance to a rotation of the rotation element; and an adjustment device provided on the cylinder and adjusting a preload of the second elastic element.
