Abstract

A vehicle brake pedal including a base and a pedal arm coupled to and rotatable relative to the base. A linear pedal resistance assembly extends between the base and the pedal arm and is adapted for exerting a resistance force against the pedal arm in response to the rotation of the pedal arm. A rotary pedal dampener assembly is associated with the base and adapted for exerting a dampening force against the pedal arm in response to the rotation of the pedal arm. A rotary pedal position sensor assembly is associated with the base and adapted for sensing the position of the pedal arm in response to the rotation of the pedal arm. In one embodiment, the linear pedal resistance assembly includes a housing with a plurality of springs adapted for compression in response to the rotation of the pedal arm and for exerting the resistance force against the pedal arm.
