20140109717 | ACCELERATOR PEDAL REACTION FORCE CONTROL DEVICE - An accelerator pedal reaction force control device for controlling a depression reaction force of an accelerator pedal provided to a motor vehicle, the control device including: a reaction force actuator that provides the accelerator pedal with a depression reaction force; a target reaction force setting unit that sets a target depression reaction force; and a vehicle speed maintenance depression amount setting unit that sets an amount of depression of the accelerator pedal for maintaining a current vehicle speed as a vehicle speed maintenance depression amount, wherein, when a pedal depression amount exceeds the vehicle speed maintenance depression amount, the target reaction force setting unit performs a cruise assist whereby the target depression reaction force is set to a value of a cruise assist depression reaction force. | 04-24-2014 |
20140116379 | ACCELERATOR PEDAL REACTION FORCE CONTROL DEVICE - A reaction force control unit calculates a driver's requested output and then estimates a maximum output that can be generated by an engine in a current cylinder deactivation operation. Next, the reaction force control unit calculates a difference between the maximum output and the requested output as an output difference and then determines whether the output difference has reached a predetermined reaction force start threshold value, and if the determination result is Yes, the reaction force control unit estimates a number of to-be-reactivated cylinders on the basis of the output difference and the current cylinder deactivation operation state. Subsequently, the reaction force control unit sets a target reaction force on the basis of the output difference and the number of to-be-reactivated cylinders, and outputs drive current to a reaction force actuator. | 05-01-2014 |

20130152725 | REACTION FORCE PEDAL DEVICE - Disclosed is a reaction force pedal device provided with pedal members operated by a driver, a motor which applies a reaction force to the pedal members through an arm member which is always connected to the pedal members (20, 22), and a clutch arranged between the motor and the arm member. When the pedal members are displaced, the clutch is temporarily released. | 06-20-2013 |
20140251069 | REACTION FORCE PEDAL DEVICE - A reaction force pedal device provided with pedal members operated by a driver, a motor which applies a reaction force to the pedal members through an arm member which is always connected to the pedal members, and a clutch arranged between the motor and the arm member. When the pedal members are displaced, the clutch is temporarily released. | 09-11-2014 |
20140373668 | REACTIVE FORCE PEDAL DEVICE - In a reactive force pedal device, between a motor-side output shaft and a pedal member, a one-way clutch is provided which allows transmittance of rotational force when performing a depressing operation of the pedal member and disables transmittance of the rotational force when performing a revert operation of the pedal member. | 12-25-2014 |
