Embodiments described herein are directed to a pedal assembly. The pedal assembly includes a housing, a pedal arm, a retaining member, and a block. The pedal arm has an upper end. The upper end is pivotally coupled to the housing. The retaining member is slidably engaged within the housing. The retaining member has a first angled portion. A portion of the retaining member in communication with the upper end of the pedal arm. The block is slidably mounted within the housing and perpendicular to the first angled portion of the retaining member. The block has a second angled portion that is complimentary to the first angled portion. Upon an impact, the second angled portion slidably engages with the first angled portion, which causes the retaining member to move and release the upper end of the pedal arm from the housing.

Pedal assembly with a release mechanism

An electrical-mechanical brake apparatus includes a bracket and a pedal arm supported by the bracket. The bracket has a cam surface. An arm extends from the pivot arm to a follower. As the pedal arm moves toward the bracket, the follower moves along the cam surface, compressing the cam bias for simulating the feel of a purely mechanical brake system. In certain embodiments, the earn body rotates while in others the cam follower rotates.

Pedal assembly for electronic braking system

An electrical-mechanical brake apparatus includes a bracket () and a pedal arm () supported by the bracket (). One of the bracket () and the pedal arm () presents a cam body (). The other of the other of the pedal arm () and the bracket () presents a cam follower (). One of the cam body () and the cam follower () is rotatable. A cam bias () interconnects the rotatable one of the cam body () and the cam follower () to one of the bracket () and the pedal arm (). As the pedal arm () moves toward the bracket (), the cam follower () moves along the cam body (), compressing the cam bias () for simulating the feel of a purely mechanical brake system. In certain embodiments, the bracket () presents the cam body () while in other embodiments the pedal arm () presents the cam body. In certain embodiments, the cam body () rotates while in others the cam follower () rotates.
