Patent ID: 8175783

Claim:
An organ type accelerator pedal assembly comprising: a motor that is fixed to a side of a housing; a vibration generating module that is coupled to a carrier connected to a foot plate, adjacent to the motor on the side of the housing, and engaged with the motor through a belt to move up/down the carrier in a short cycle while rotating by power of the motor; a solenoid that is fixed to the housing around the motor; a pushing-force generating module that is connected with the solenoid through a solenoid rod and makes elastic linear reciprocation by motion of the solenoid to provide a pushing-force to the foot plate when contacting with the vibration generating module; and a controller that compares speed limit of a road transmitted from a GPS with driving speed transmitted from a vehicle speed sensor and then generates a control signal to actuate the motor when the driving speed exceeds the speed limit of the road, and receives a signal from an inter-vehicle distance sensor and then generates a control signal to actuate the solenoid when distance from a vehicle next ahead is under a predetermined value.
