An aircraft rudder pedal comprising a frame and at least one pedal side system. The or each pedal side system includes a pedal and an articulated support structure of the pedal connecting the pedal to the frame. The articulated support structure of said pedal comprises a crank, a lever and a support link. The crank presents a first pivotal articulation connection to the frame and a second pivotal articulation connection with the support link. The lever presents a first pivotal articulation connection with the frame and a second pivotal articulation connection with the support link.

Aircraft rudder with articulated support structure of pedal

An aircraft rudder pedal frame includes a base, a support framework and connection interfaces. Each connection interface is able to connect another part of the rudder pedal to the frame. The support framework connects each connection interface to the base. The support framework includes framework elements arranged in a lattice, at least one of the framework elements extending from each connection interface.

Aircraft rudder pedal frame

An aircraft rudder pedal includes a frame, a pair of pedals, an output shaft and a mechanical kinematic chain for transmitting to the output shaft a displacement of at least one of the pedals relative to the frame. The mechanical kinematic chain comprises a central transmission part able to be rotated relative to the frame by a displacement of one of the pedals relative to the frame. The mechanical kinematic chain also includes a transmission mechanism joining the central transmission part to the output shaft. The transmission mechanism includes a homokinetic association of two universal joints between said central transmission part and the output shaft.
