20100186540 | LINK CONNECTING STRUCTURE OF OPERATING PEDAL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE - When the operating pedal and the pivot member are connected by the connecting links, roll caulking is performed on the tip portions of the shafts of the connecting pins, with the shafts passing through the connecting pin through holes of the connecting links, and also through the metal bush of the operating pedal or the metal bush of the pivot member. Accordingly, by plastic deformation, the tip portions have a larger diameter to give the disengagement-preventing portions, in such a manner that a predetermined space ρ is formed between the disengagement-preventing portions and the components that are connected by the connecting pins, respectively. Consequently, unlike the conventional, ordinary caulking, owing to the presence of the space ρ, relative pivotal movement is allowed between the components that are connected by the connecting pins. Therefore, the forming process of the disengagement-preventing portions for the connecting pins, that is, roll caulking, can be easily automated. Further, a disengagement-preventing component, such as E ring, is not required, and a slot or the like for installing the component on the shafts of the connecting pins does not have to be formed. Accordingly, the link connecting structures of a pedal device for a vehicle can be constructed with a small number of components at low cost. | 07-29-2010 |
