An electronic brake pedal apparatus may perform a function of a stop lamp switch and a function of a stroke sensor in the related art by use of electronic Hall sensors and a Hall switch and diagnose failure by use of the two Hall sensors and the Hall switch, which makes it possible to simplify a configuration, reduce an external size and costs, and improve durability, reliability, and marketability by use of a contactless sensor.

Electronic brake pedal apparatus

A foldable accelerator pedal apparatus for a vehicle includes: a pedal housing fixedly installed in a lower space of a driver seat, a pedal pad rotatably coupled to the pedal housing, and a hysteresis module to generate hysteresis when a driver manipulates the pedal pad. In a manual driving mode in which a driver directly drives the vehicle, the pedal padprotrudes from the pedal housingand is popped up to be exposed to the driver, and in an autonomous driving mode in which the driver does not directly drive the vehicle, the pedal padis inserted into the pedal housingand is in a hidden (hide) state in which the exposure to the driver is blocked. It is possible to implement hysteresis through the hysteresis modulewhen the pedal padis manipulated.

An electronic pedal apparatus is configured to perform an electronic pedal function by utilizing a basic configuration and also perform a foldable function by adding some elements to the basic configuration to be usefully used in an autonomous vehicle.

Electronic pedal apparatus

An organ-type electronic brake pedal apparatus enables a pedal pad to be manipulated when a driver tries to manipulate the pedal pad by rotating his/her foot in the manner of manipulating an organ-type pedal or when the drivers tries to manipulate the pedal pad by stretching his/her foot forwards in the manner of manipulating a pendant-type pedal. The organ-type electronic brake pedal apparatus inhibits the pedal pad from being manipulated when the driver tries to manipulate a pedal arm part, which is positioned close to a hinge pin of the pedal pad.

A foldable brake pedal apparatus for autonomous vehicles provides a manual driving mode and an autonomous driving mode. In the manual driving mode, a driver directly drives a vehicle, a pedal pad protrudes from a pedal housing and pops up to be exposed to the driver side such that the driver can manipulate the pedal pad. And in the autonomous driving mode, the driver does not directly drive the vehicle, the pedal pad is inserted into the pedal housing and is in a hidden state in which exposure of the pedal pad toward the drive side is inhibited such that the driver cannot manipulate the pedal pad.

Foldable brake pedal apparatus for autonomous vehicles

A foldable brake pedal apparatus for an autonomous driving vehicle enables a pedal pad to protrude from a pedal housing in a popped-up state to make it possible for the driver to operate the pedal pad in a manual driving mode in which the driver manually drives the vehicle. In particular, the pedal pad is inserted into the pedal housing and blocked from being exposed to the driver in a hidden state so as to make it impossible for the driver to operate the pedal pad in an autonomous driving mode in which the driver does not manually drive the vehicle.
