ABSTRACT:
A brake pedal (1) for a vehicle, in particular, a motor vehicle, includes a framework structure (2) mounted for rotation about a first rotation spindle (3) connectable to the bulkhead of the vehicle. A peg (5) is fixed to one end (4a) of a pedal web (4) and slides in a slot (21) provided in the framework structure (2). A movement mechanism (7) causes the peg to slide in the slot, defining a length (L) between the rotation spindle of the framework structure and the other end (4b) of the pedal web. A first link (8) is connected to the framework structure and is mounted for rotation about a second rotation spindle (9) connectable to the bulkhead of the vehicle. The first link includes a connection (13) for receiving an end of the rod of the brake booster of the vehicle at a distance (R) from the second rotation spindle. The brake pedal operates to provide a constant step-down ratio (L/R).
