Abstract
One embodiment of a bidirectional pedal assembly includes a base structure connectable to a vehicle structure and a pedal support member pivotally mounted on the base structure to be pivotable around an axis of rotation from a rest position in a first direction and in a second direction opposite to the first direction. First and second spring elements to urge the pedal support member to its rest position. First and second frictional mechanisms are disposed between the pedal support member and the first and second springs, such that the first and second frictional mechanisms, respectively, moves with the pedal support member and transmits force from the pedal support member to one of the first and second spring elements. Each frictional mechanism is arranged to increase a frictional resistance to retard pivotal movements of the pedal support member upon force being transmitted through the respective frictional mechanism.
