ABSTRACT:
A method and construction for assembling the brake pedal and associated switches and valve for an automotive vehicle in the vehicle so as to insure consistent operation and reduce assembly time. The construction comprises a bracket securable to the vehicle firewall and carrying the brake pedal lever which is hinged thereto by a torsionable rubber sleeve bonded to inner and outer metal sleeves or by a spring-like portion of the lever. The resilient hinge is biased so as to urge the brake pedal lever away from the firewall, and one or more switches and valves are carried by the bracket or brake pedal lever in a manner which will cause operation of the switches and valves when the brake pedal is actuated. The method of the invention includes the steps of assembling a module comprising the bracket, brake pedal lever switches and in some cases a portion of a push rod, biasing the hinge, connecting the module to the brake cylinder and securing it to the firewall.
