Abstract
An organ-type pedal device includes a housing, a shaft, a pedal pad, and a sensor unit. The housing is attached to a vehicle body. The shaft is rotatably supported around a center of a shaft receiving portion provided in the housing as a rotation axis. The pedal pad is fixed to the shaft and rotates about a same rotation axis as the shaft. The pedal pad has a structure in which a portion to be stepped on by a driver is arranged above the rotation axis in a vertical direction when being mounted on the vehicle. The sensor unit has a rotating portion provided at the shaft and a signal output portion provided at the housing for outputting a signal corresponding to a phase of the rotating portion, and detects a rotation angle of the pedal pad and the shaft.
