The brake is called the brake pedal, what is the accelerator called?
1 Answers
The accelerator is called the accelerator pedal or throttle pedal. When the accelerator pedal is pressed, the engine speed increases. The accelerator pedal does not directly control the fuel injection amount but rather the throttle opening. Pressing the accelerator pedal increases the throttle opening, allowing more air to enter the engine, at which point the ECU commands the fuel injection system to inject more fuel. Below is more related information: 1. Accelerator Pedal: The accelerator pedal is a car accessory that allows the driver to control the pedal more freely, enhancing driving safety. Most accelerator pedals are designed with aluminum alloy, and adding an accelerator pedal can significantly increase the vertical contact area of the pedal. 2. General Principles of Throttle Control: Except in emergencies, drivers should remember these eight words in most situations: 'Press lightly, lift slowly, smoothly and evenly.' Stomping on the accelerator not only causes the vehicle to jerk suddenly but also wastes fuel, making passengers inside the car 'rock back and forth' uncomfortably. When pressing the accelerator, the right heel should be placed on the floor of the driver's compartment as a pivot, with the foot lightly pressing on the accelerator pedal. Use the ankle joint's extension and flexion movements to press or release the pedal, applying force gently to achieve a light press and slow lift.
