Embodiment Construction

[0022] In the second embodiment of the present invention, as figure 2 shown, for the purpose of simplifying the description, figure 2 The components shown in the figure 1 same components as shown in the figure 1 Indicated by the same reference numerals.

[0023] figure 1 The device 1 shown in includes a base 2 on top of which a first step 3 is located in the direction of the axis X'X. The first step 3 is used as a pedal and has a riser 30 which, together with the base 2, forms a housing 20 shaped to receive the shim and the lower part of the pedal, which is in the figure 1 not shown in , but in image 3 displayed in .

[0024] In addition, a second step 4 is positioned on top of the first step 3 and also in the direction of the axis X'X, the second step 4 has a second riser 40 forming a support surface for the driver's feet . Said second step has a second tread 41 which is hollow so as to create a portion 42 having a complementary shape to the steering column 5 in cr...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for protecting the feet of a driver and to be installed on the fire wall (7) of an automobile, wherein said device comprises a base (2) with a first step (3) on top in the X'X axis direction, the first step (3) defining a footrest and including a riser or first riser (30), the device being characterized in that the first riser (30) and the base (2) define a groove (20) adapted for receiving at least one pad of a pedal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for protecting the feet of a driver of a motor vehicle, designed to be mounted in the fire wall of the motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] During a traffic accident, for example in the event of a frontal collision, a part of the driver's body is at risk of striking forward violently against the components making up the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle. In the context of this specification, modern motor vehicles often include passive safety elements, such as airbags, to protect the driver's head and chest from being thrown against the steering wheel and / or dashboard. [0003] Likewise, in the event of a frontal collision, the lower part of the driver's body, especially the feet, also rushes forward and upwards and may thus collide with the dash panel of the motor vehicle, that is to say the dash panel that separates the engine compartment The next door to the passenger compartment or steering column....
