Abstract
A pedal device includes a switching device, which is capable of selectively switching the position of a spring between a use position, at which the spring is disposed during the use of the pedal device, and a non-use position, at which the spring is disposed during the non-use of the pedal device. The switching device is configured such that the length between a first end and a second end of the spring when the spring is disposed at the non-use position is less than the spring length when the spring is disposed at the use position.
