PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an accelerator pedal device for a vehicle having an accelerator pedal which is made a footrest in automatic driving time, which allows a driver to easily detect that, the vehicle is in the automatic driving state.SOLUTION: An accelerator pedal device 7 comprises: first reaction force application means 21 for applying normal reaction force to an accelerator pedal 4 in manual driving time, in a direction opposite to a depressing direction; and second reaction force application means 22 for generating additional reaction force in the direction opposite to the depressing direction to the accelerator pedal 4 in automatic driving time. By start of the automatic driving, by the additional reaction force of the second reaction force application means, the accelerator pedal oscillates to a first or second oscillation position Pα, Pβ in the direction opposite to the depressing direction beyond a reference position P0 where the accelerator pedal is not depressed and is held at the position, and the accelerator pedal is made a footrest so that the accelerator pedal cannot be depressed unless tread force equal to or higher than the additional reaction force is applied.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
【課題】自動運転時にフットレスト化されるアクセルペダルを備えた車輌用アクセルペダル装置において、運転者が自動運転中であることを容易に体感することができる。【解決手段】アクセルペダル装置7は、手動運転時にアクセルペダル4に踏込方向と逆向きに通常の反力を付与する第1反力付与手段21と、自動運転時にアクセルペダル4に対して踏込方向と逆向きの付加反力を発生する第2反力付与手段22とを有する。自動運転の開始により、第2反力付与手段の付加反力によって、アクセルペダルは、踏み込まれていない基準位置P0を越えて踏込方向とは逆向きに、第1又は第2揺動位置Pα、Pβまで揺動してその位置に保持され、付加反力以上の踏力をかけなければ踏み込むことができないように、フットレスト化される。【選択図】図3
