A device for manual backup driving is as follows.

Mounting the device to the body is as follows. Threaded extensions 29 are installed in place of the standard fastening of the steering column (not shown in FIG.) Of the car, the bracket 26 for fastening the device to the body is fixed to the seats 30 and tightened on the thread 31, the main lever 1 is connected to the bracket 26 for fastening the device to the body, which is free moves on the axis 25 of the main lever 1, while the driver holds the steering wheel 33 with both hands, then the driver pushes the gas-brake handle 2 away from him and activates the brake, and the gas-brake handle 2 is rigidly connected to the main lever m 1, and the latter is fixed on the axis 25, therefore the main lever 1, moving away from itself through the ear 9, the power hinges 10 and the telescopic rod 14 of the brake acts on the brake pedal 16, while the movement of the main lever 1, the gas cable 24 weakens and sags, does not exerting an influence on the gas lever 23, braking occurs, the driver pulls the gas-brake handle 2 with the fingers of his right hand, while the movement of the main lever 1 toward himself ear 9 pulls the gas lever 23 through the gas cable 24, and the latter transfers the movement to the pedal 17 gas through small joints 11 of the thrust 22 of the gas and the clamp 19 of the small one, at the same time, the ear 9 extends the telescopic rod 14 of the brake, thereby exerting no effect on the brake pedal 16, adds “gas”, and the slack of the gas cable 24 and the telescopic rod 14 of the brake extend completely exclude the simultaneous pressing of the gas pedals 17 and 16, the brakes, respectively.

The beginning of the movement is as follows. The driver with his right hand rotates the clutch handle 3 around the axis 5 of the clutch lever 4, and since the clutch handle 3 is connected to the connector 6 with a locking bolt 7 and the bolt 8 for fixing the clutch handle 3 with the axis 5 of the clutch lever 3 and transfers the moment to the clutch lever 4, the latter transfers the moment of movement to the clutch lever 4, and the latter transmits the moment of movement to the clutch pedal 15 through the telescopic clutch rod 13, while the clutch lever 4 has a stroke within the stroke limiter 28 of the clutch lever 4, and the latter according to the cr principle the throat leaves from its initial position to the extreme and, having begun the reverse movement, abuts against the stroke limiter 28 of the clutch lever 4, this ensures that the clutch lever 4 is fixed at the extreme point, and at this time the clutch is turned off and locked, the driver engages first gear with his right hand and starts to rotate the clutch handle 3 is back, that is, it engages the clutch, at the same time the driver can add “gas” by pulling the clutch handle 3 towards himself, while the subsequent gear shift occurs similarly.

A complete stop occurs as follows. The driver, when it is necessary to stop completely, turns the clutch handle 3 all the way and simultaneously pushes it away from himself, and since the clutch handle 3 is a continuation of the main lever 1, it acts on the brake pedal 16, and after a complete stop, the driver turns off the gear with his right hand.

The car can be controlled both by manual control and in the usual way with the help of pedals, while pressing the clutch pedal 15 with the foot extends the clutch telescopic rod 13 and the entire clutch drive mechanism is not actuated, in particular, the clutch is not locked, then the same thing happens when you press the brake pedal 16 with your foot, while when you press the gas pedal 17 with your foot, the movement is transmitted to the gas thrust 22 and the gas lever 23, but the gas cable 24, while sagging, has no effect on the main lever 1.

The invention in comparison with the prototype and other known technical solutions has the following advantages:

- the versatility of the device, which consists in the fact that it can be used on any domestic and imported cars, both by means of manual control of brake, clutch and gas drives for disabled drivers without legs, and in the usual way by pedals;

- simplification of car use.
