Abstract
An adjustable pedal for a vehicle includes a bracket for mounting the pedal on a vehicle body, a holder pivotably supported by the bracket, and a pedal member, an end of which is adjustably attached to the holder to set a position thereof of interest to a driver. The pedal member is pivotable with respect to the bracket in cooperation with the holder and is connected to an operating rod for a vehicle control component to be operated by motion of the pedal member through a linkage. This linkage is adapted for transmit a operating force created by the motion of the pedal member to the operating rod uniformly independent of the position of the pedal member relative to the holder.
