Abstract
A disengageable pedal support for a foot control unit has a bearing bracket with two bearing arms and one bearing eyelet formed in each, the bearing eyelet having a continuation projecting laterally to the side of that bearing arm and facing the other bearing arm, an annular plain bearing shell in each bearing eyelet continuation having graduations forming graduated supports that have a smaller and a larger internal diameter part, a first suspended pedal supported by the smaller internal diameter parts and pivotable around an axis, and a second suspended pedal supported by the larger internal diameter parts, pivotable around the axis and suspended beside the first pedal. The support of one of the two pedals is designed as a plug-in support. Each annular plain bearing shell is formed by a molding made of self lubricating plastic material and provided with a radial opening in the larger internal diameter parts.
