Vehicle pedal

1. A vehicle pedal comprising a pedal body that has one end portion and another end portion in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle pedal disposed at a vehicle body floor side, and that is supported so as to be capable of pivoting about the one end portion, wherein:

a friction regulating section is integrally formed to a tread portion of the pedal body;

a first region and a second region are configured on the surface of the friction regulating section, a coefficient of friction of the second region in the longitudinal direction is greater than a coefficient of friction of the first region in the longitudinal direction;

the second region is formed closer to the one end portion of the pedal body than the first region, the first region is applied with tread force from a toe side of a foot of a driver;

the second region is applied with tread force from a heel side of the foot,

wherein the friction regulating section includes a first textured portion and a second textured portion, wherein:

the first textured portion is configured with a plurality of recesses or protrusions, and that is formed in the first region so as to have a smaller coefficient of friction in the longitudinal direction than a coefficient of friction in a lateral direction of the pedal body,

the second textured portion is configured with a plurality of recesses or protrusions, and that is formed in the second region so as to have a greater coefficient of friction in the longitudinal direction than a coefficient of friction in the lateral direction,

a longitudinal axis of each of the plurality of recesses or protrusions of the first textured portion extends along the longitudinal direction and is disposed at a predetermined spacing in the lateral direction, and

a longitudinal axis of each of the plurality of recesses or protrusions of the second textured portion extends along the lateral direction and is disposed at a predetermined spacing in the longitudinal direction, wherein

the plurality of recesses of the first textured portion is defined as a plurality of first recesses;

the plurality of recesses of the second textured portion is defined as a plurality of second recesses;

a width of the second recesses is set narrower than a width of the first recesses; and

wherein when the second recesses are viewed in cross-section along the lateral direction, a side of the second recesses that is closest to the other end portion comprises a corner portion, and a side of the second recesses that is closest to the one end portion comprises an oblique portion with a depth from the tread portion becoming shallower on progression toward the one end portion.

2. The vehicle pedal of claim 1 , wherein:

when the first recesses are viewed in cross-section along the lateral direction, a side of the first recesses that is closest to the end portion comprises an oblique portion with a depth from the tread portion becoming shallower on progression toward the one end portion.

3. A vehicle pedal, comprising a pedal body that has one end portion and another end portion in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle pedal disposed at a vehicle body floor side, and that is supported so as to be capable of pivoting about the one end portion, wherein:

a friction regulating section is integrally formed to a tread portion of the pedal body;

a first region and a second region are configured on the surface of the friction regulating section, a coefficient of friction of the second region in the longitudinal direction is greater than a coefficient of friction of the first region in the longitudinal direction;

the second region is formed closer to the one end portion of the pedal body than the first region, the first region is applied with tread force from a toe side of a foot of a driver;

the second region is applied with tread force from a heel side of the foot,

wherein the friction regulating section includes a first textured portion and a second textured portion, wherein:

the first textured portion is configured with a plurality of recesses or protrusions, and that is formed in the first region so as to have a smaller coefficient of friction in the longitudinal direction than a coefficient of friction in a lateral direction of the pedal body,

the second textured portion is configured with a plurality of recesses or protrusions, and that is formed in the second region so as to have a greater coefficient of friction in the longitudinal direction than a coefficient of friction in the lateral direction,

a longitudinal axis of each of the plurality of recesses or protrusions of the first textured portion extends along the longitudinal direction and is disposed at a predetermined spacing in the lateral direction, and

a longitudinal axis of each of the plurality of recesses or protrusions of the second textured portion extends along the lateral direction and is disposed at a predetermined spacing in the longitudinal direction, wherein

the plurality of recesses of the first textured portion is defined as a plurality of first recesses;

the plurality of recesses of the second textured portion is defined as a plurality of second recesses;

a width of the second recesses is set narrower than a width of the first recesses;

the width of the second recesses is set as a shorter length than the spacing between the second recesses; and

when the second recesses are viewed in cross-section along the lateral direction, a side of the second recesses that is closest to the other end portion comprises a corner portion, and a side of the second recesses that is closest to the one end portion comprises an oblique portion with a depth from the tread portion becoming shallower on progression toward the one end portion.

4. The vehicle pedal of claim 3 , wherein:

when the first recesses are viewed in cross-section along the lateral direction, a side of the first recesses that is closest to the one end portion comprises an oblique portion with a depth from the tread portion becoming shallower on progression toward the one end portion.
