Detailed Description
The present embodiment is described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the scooter of the present embodiment with an exterior member removed. In the following drawings, the vehicle front is indicated by an arrow FR, the vehicle rear is indicated by an arrow RE, the vehicle left side is indicated by L, and the vehicle right side is indicated by R.
As shown in fig. 1, the scooter type motorcycle 1 has a vehicle body frame 10 of a bottom skeleton type, a head pipe 11 is provided at a front end portion of the vehicle body frame 10, and the head pipe 11 is inserted into a steering shaft 41. The front frame 12 extends downward from the head pipe 11, and a pair of lower frame members 13 constituting a lower frame extend rearward from a lower portion of the front frame 12. A pair of rear frame members 15 constituting the rear frame are erected diagonally rearward from intermediate positions of the pair of lower frame members 13, a pair of support frame members 18 constituting the support frame are erected diagonally rearward from rear end positions of the pair of lower frame members 13, and upper ends of the pair of support frame members 18 are connected to the pair of rear frame members 15.
The steering shaft 41 is supported by the head pipe 11 of the vehicle body frame 10 so as to be steerable, a handlebar 42 is provided on an upper portion of the steering shaft 41, and a front wheel 44 is supported on a lower portion of the steering shaft 41 via a pair of front forks 43. A saddle 46 and a sub-seat 47 are connected to the upper portions of the pair of rear frame members 15, and an installation space surrounded by the pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support frame members 18 is formed below the saddle 46. This installation space is vertically partitioned by a reinforcing frame 21, and the reinforcing frame 21 connects the pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support frame members 18 in the horizontal direction.
A battery unit 51 is provided above the installation space, and an electric power unit 52 is provided below the installation space. An inverter unit 53 that converts dc power of the battery unit 51 into ac power is provided between the pair of lower frame members in front of the electric power unit 52. The battery unit 51 and the electric power unit 52, which are heavy objects, are disposed below the saddle 46, thereby achieving steering stability. Further, by bringing the inverter unit 53 close to the battery unit 51, the high voltage line from the battery unit 51 to the inverter unit 53 is shortened, and wiring is facilitated.
The pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support frame members 18 are connected in the front-rear direction by a pair of pivot brackets 31, respectively. The swing arm 55 is coupled to the pair of pivot brackets 31 so as to be swingable in the vertical direction, and a rear cushion unit 56 is mounted between the vehicle body frame 10 and the swing arm 55. The swing arm 55 is provided with a chain cover 57 that houses a rear sprocket (not shown) and a chain (not shown), and the driving force of the electric power unit 52 is transmitted to the rear wheel 58 via the rear sprocket and the chain.
In a typical scooter type motorcycle, a unit swing type in which an electric power unit is swingable on a body frame together with a rear wheel is adopted. The unit swing type makes it difficult to provide a support frame behind the rear frame in layout. Therefore, the strength and rigidity of the rear frame are ensured by increasing the cross-sectional area of the rear frame member (pipe) constituting the rear frame, and the swing arm is supported by a pivot bracket provided at the rear frame in a cantilever manner. The support rigidity of the swing arm is low only by the pivot bracket of the suspension arm, and good steering stability of the scooter cannot be obtained.
In the present embodiment, the electric power unit 52 is mounted on the vehicle body frame 10 side in place of the unit swing type, the pair of lower frame members 13 are extended long rearward, and the pair of support frame members 18 can be provided rearward of the pair of rear frame members 15. Further, the pivot bracket 31 is bridged between the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18, and the rigidity of the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18 is improved. Further, by coupling the swing arm 55 to the pivot bracket 31 of the double column type, the support rigidity of the swing arm 55 can be secured, and good steering stability can be obtained.
Hereinafter, a frame structure of a scooter type motorcycle will be described with reference to fig. 2 to 4. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the frame structure of the present embodiment as viewed obliquely from the front. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the frame structure of the present embodiment as viewed from below. Fig. 4 is a plan view of the frame structure of the present embodiment. Note that fig. 2 to 4 omit the structure other than the electric power unit for the convenience of description.
As shown in fig. 2 to 4, the vehicle body frame 10 is a frame structure in which a footwell for a driver is formed in front of a seat, and the pair of lower frame members 13 extend rearward from a lower portion of the front frame 12 so as to pass under the footwell. The pair of lower frame members 13 are connected by a plurality of bridges 14 to constitute a lower frame, and the rigidity of the pair of lower frame members 13 in the vehicle width direction is increased by the bridges 14. The footwell space indicates a space surrounded by a body cover (not shown) below the seat, a leg shield (not shown), and pedals (not shown) and in which both feet of the driver are placed on the vehicle body.
The pair of lower frame members 13 extend in the front-rear direction of the vehicle, and the pair of rear frame members 15 stand from the pair of lower frame members 13 behind the footwell. The pair of rear frame members 15 rise obliquely rearward from the lower frame member 13, and are partially bent so that the inclination is gentle in the middle of the extending direction. The rear frame is configured by connecting the pair of rear frame members 15 by the plurality of bridge members 16, and the rigidity of the pair of rear frame members 15 in the vehicle width direction is increased by the bridge members 16. A reinforcing member 17 having a triangular shape in side view is provided at the lower ends of the pair of rear frame members 15, increasing the joint area of the rear frame members 15 and the lower frame member 13.
Further, behind the pair of rear frame members 15, a pair of support frame members 18 stand from the pair of lower frame members 13. The pair of support frame members 18 rise obliquely rearward from the rear end positions of the pair of lower frame members 13, and are engaged with the rear sides of the bent portions of the pair of rear frame members 15. The upper ends of the pair of support frame members 18 are engaged with the lower surfaces of the pair of rear frame members 15 from the lower side, and the seat load is supported by the pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support frame members 18 together. A rear cushion bracket 19 having a rhombus shape in side view is provided at the joint portion of the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18, increasing the joint area of the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18.
The rear cushion bracket 19 is coupled to the swing arm 55 via a rear cushion unit 56 (fig. 1). At this time, the push-up load is applied to the rear cushion bracket 19 by the rear cushion unit 56, and the push-up load applied to the rear cushion bracket 19 is dispersed to the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18. A pair of pivot brackets 31 are respectively bridged between the pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support frame members 18. The rigidity is increased by connecting the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18 in the front-rear direction by the pivot bracket 31.
The pivot bracket 31 has a groove 32 having a square U-shape in cross section, and the rigidity is improved by intersecting the extending direction of the groove 32 with the extending direction of the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18. A pivot hole 33 is formed in the bottom surface of the groove portion 32, and the pivot hole 33 couples a swing arm 55 (see fig. 1) to be swingable up and down via a support shaft. The front end of the pivot bracket 31 engages the rear surface of the rear frame member 15 and the rear end of the pivot bracket 31 engages the front surface of the support frame member 18. In this case, the upper side of the rear end of the pivot bracket 31 is expanded rearward, and the stress concentration acting on the upper side of the rear end of the pivot bracket 31 is relaxed.
As described above, since the pivot bracket 31 is supported in a double-column manner by the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18, the pivot bracket 31 itself is formed in a shape that is difficult to deform, and therefore, the support rigidity of the swing arm 55 is improved, and the steering stability is improved. The rear side of the vehicle body frame 10 is a support structure in which four frames of the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18 are used as support columns, but it is difficult to ensure torsional rigidity only with the four frames. In the present embodiment, the reinforcing frame 21 integrally connects the pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support frame members 18 to increase the rigidity.
The reinforcement frame 21 is formed in a rectangular frame shape by a pair of front and rear frame portions 22 extending in the front-rear direction of the vehicle and a pair of left and right frame portions 23 extending in the vehicle width direction. Support brackets 25 are provided at the same height position on the pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support frame members 18, respectively, and the reinforcing frame 21 is fixed to the support brackets 25 at four locations. The pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support frame members 18 are integrally connected by the rectangular frame-shaped reinforcing frame 21, and the rigidity in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction of the rear frame members 15 and the support frame members 18 is improved, and the torsional rigidity is improved.
In the vehicle body frame 10, an installation space surrounded by the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18 is partitioned vertically by the reinforcement frame 21. The upper side of the installation space is an installation space for the battery unit 51 (see fig. 1), and the battery unit 51 is placed on the rectangular frame-shaped upper surface of the reinforcing frame 21. The reinforcing frame 21 has a frame size corresponding to the width and depth of the battery cell 51, and supports the lower surface of the battery cell 51 along the entire circumference by the reinforcing frame 21. In this way, the reinforcing frame 21 not only ensures the rigidity of the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18, but also functions as a mounting surface for the battery unit 51.
The lower side of the installation space is an installation space for the electric power unit 52, and the electric power unit 52 is mounted on the reinforcing frame 21 and the bridge 14 constituting the lower frame. The left and right frame portions 23 on the front side of the reinforcing frame 21 are provided with upper brackets 27 that support the upper portion of the electric power unit 52, and the bridge 14 of the lower frame is provided with lower brackets 28 that support the lower portion of the electric power unit 52. By supporting the electric power unit 52 on the upper bracket 27 and the lower bracket 28, the rigidity of the entire body frame 10 is increased by the electric power unit 52.
A battery unit 51 is placed on the upper surface of the reinforcing frame 21, and an electric power unit 52 is supported on the lower portion of the reinforcing frame 21. Therefore, by disposing the battery unit 51 and the electric power unit 52 as heavy objects vertically, the steering stability can be obtained by mass concentration. The reinforcing frame 21 is detachably connected to the pair of rear frame members 15 and the pair of support brackets 25 that support the frame members 18. Therefore, the electric power unit 52 can be easily attached to and detached from the vehicle body frame 10 by attaching and detaching the reinforcement frame 21.
In this way, the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18 are erected from the lower frame member 13, and the respective frame members are integrated by the reinforcement frame 21, whereby the rigidity of the rear side of the vehicle body frame 10 is ensured. Further, the pivot bracket 31 is bridged between the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18, and the pivot bracket 31 functions as a bridge between the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18, thereby improving rigidity. This makes it possible to reduce the cross-sectional area of each frame member by the amount of increased rigidity, and to secure a wide installation space for various units and the like inside the frame.
As described above, according to the present embodiment, since the pivot bracket 31 is supported in a double-column manner by the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18, the support rigidity of the swing arm 55 by the pivot bracket 31 can be increased, and good steering stability can be obtained. Since the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18 are coupled in the front-rear direction by the pivot bracket 31, the rigidity of the rear frame member 15 and the support frame member 18 is improved. Further, the cross-sectional area of the frame member can be reduced by the amount of improvement in rigidity of the entire frame structure, and a space can be secured between the frames.
In the present embodiment, the support frame member constituting the support frame is formed separately from the lower frame member constituting the lower frame, but is not limited to this configuration. The support frame member may be integrally formed with the lower frame member by bending a rear portion of the lower frame member upward.
In the present embodiment, the groove-shaped portion of the pivot bracket is configured to protrude inward in the vehicle width direction, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. The groove portion of the pivot bracket may also protrude outward in the vehicle width direction. The pivot bracket is formed with a groove portion having a square U-shape in cross section, but the cross section of the pivot bracket is not particularly limited thereto. The notch portion may not be formed in the pivot bracket as long as sufficient rigidity can be ensured.
In the present embodiment, the reinforcing frame is formed in a rectangular frame shape, but the present invention is not limited to this structure. The reinforcing frame may be configured to integrally connect the pair of rear frame members and the pair of support frame members.
In the present embodiment, the pair of lower frame members and the pair of rear frame members are coupled to each other by the bridge members to form the lower frame and the rear frame, but the pair of support frame members may be coupled to each other by the bridge members to form the support frame. This can further improve the rigidity of the vehicle body frame.
In the present embodiment, the reinforcing frame is detachably coupled to the pair of rear frame members and the pair of support frame members, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. The reinforcing frame may be integrally joined to the pair of rear frame members and the pair of support frame members.
In the present embodiment, the electric power unit and the battery unit are disposed vertically, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. The positional relationship between the electric power unit and the battery unit is not particularly limited, and for example, the battery unit may be provided in front of the electric power unit.
In the present embodiment, the description is given by taking an electric motorcycle as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. The frame structure of the present invention can be applied to a scooter type motorcycle, and can also be applied to a motorcycle driven by a drive source other than an electric power unit.
