Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a motorcycle lift of the type used in the garages for the maintenance and repair of mechanical parts of motorcycles.
  • lifts are normally used that raise the vehicle from ground level to let an operator to repair or to parts of the vehicle.
  • the lifts normally used provide a platform that is raised from ground by at least one hydraulic cylinder that operates a frame consisting of stiff elements.
  • the motorcycle is arranged on its stand on the platform, which provides an apparatus for locking a wheel to ensure a suitable steadiness in order to let the operator to work safely.
  • the platform extends for all the length of the motorcycle and for this reason it cannot be used for replacing worn tyres, but only for repairing other mechanical parts such as the transmission system, the motor, etc., which can be reached easily by the operator.
  • a point at which the motorcycle is constrained by the means for engaging is located near the motorcycle handlebar.
  • the means for engaging provide a pin adapted to enter in a special hole normally present in the short tube of the motorcycle handlebar.
  • the support structure engages the motorcycle at the steering tube and is held by the support plane at another point of the frame, for example arranged on a removable support, or on the stand.
  • the wheels of the motorcycle are disengaged by the apparatus and then can be easily reached by an operator that can replace them, change the tyres, or carry out a routine check.
  • the support structure provides:
  • the cross member can, furthermore, be arranged sliding vertically, through said uprights that are made of two portions coupled telescopically, in order to be set at different heights with respect to the support plane. This gives a further degree of freedom to the means for engaging with respect to the support plane that assist further the correct arrangement of the motorcycle.
  • the means for blocking the means for engaging at a predetermined position provide:
  • the means for engaging have three degrees of freedom, according to height, rotation, and translation, with respect to the support plane. This allows to adapt easily the apparatus to a variety of types of motorcycles and gives therefore a high flexibility to the apparatus same. In particular, whichever position of the hole of the short tube of the motorcycle, it is always possible to put the pin in the hole by means of suitable combination of translational and rotational motion of the means for engaging.
  • the means for blocking the cross member in a measured angular position can, for example, provide:
  • auxiliary constraint means are provided connected to the support plane and adapted to block the motorcycle at a second point, for example at a fork near the motor.
  • auxiliary constraint means can comprise:
  • the auxiliary constraint means can be, advantageously, used if the motorcycle is not equipped with a suitable stand or if it has the fork not easily accessible by the auxiliary means for engaging.
  • a first exemplary embodiment of an apparatus 1 for lifting a motorcycle 20, provides a support plane 5 on which the motorcycle 20 is arranged for revision.
  • the support plane 5 has a central portion 4 and two ends 3a and 3b hinged to said central portion, said ends bearing the wheels 21 and 22 of the motorcycle 20 (figure 2).
  • the support plane 5 is then associated to a device 2 that brings about its lifting/lowering from ground, for example by a hydraulic cylinder not shown in the figure.
  • the apparatus 1 is, furthermore, provided with a support structure 10 integral to the support plane 5, having a pin 15 for engaging with a point 25 of the frame of the motorcycle 20 arranged near the handlebar. In this way the motorcycle 20 is held by the apparatus 1 at the handlebar 2 and at another point, for example the central part of the frame, which rests on a removable support 36 (figure 5), for example a special jack, or on the stand 26 of the motorcycle same.
  • the support structure 10 comprises a first upright 11a and a second upright 11b connected to the support plane 5 at opposite sides. Between the uprights 11a and 11b a cross member 16 adapted to rotate with respect to them about an axis of rotation 40 (figures 7 and 8). Furthermore, the cross member 16 can slide longitudinally by arranging the uprights 11 in two portions 11' and 11", which are coupled telescopically in order to be set at different heights with respect to the support plane 5 (figure 12) . The pin 15 is then connected to the cross member 16 by a rod 12 adapted to translate orthogonally to the cross member 16 same. The pin 15 that is provided at the end of the rod 12 is put into a special hole made on the short tube of the steering means of motorcycle.
  • the motorcycle 20 rests on the stand 26, or on another support 36, arranged on the central part 4 of the support plane 5 and has the pin 15 engaged with the short tube of the motorcycle handlebar 28.
  • the end sides 3a and 3b, bearing for example wheels 7, move to a rotated position.
  • the wheels 21 and 22 are disengaged from the apparatus 1 and the weight of the motorcycle 20 is transferred completely on the pin 15 and on the support, so that the wheels 21 and 22 can be easily reached by an operator for changing the tyres (figure 4).
  • the pin 15 has three degrees of freedom, one rotational and two translational, with respect to the support plane 5, allowing then adapting the apparatus 1 to a desired type of motorcycle 20.
  • the degrees of freedom are locked in the respective positions. This is easy because the motorcycle still rests on the wheels.
  • the adjustment of the position of the pin is obtained, for example, through a first and a second disc 14a and 14b, which are arranged at the two ends of the cross member 16 and have a plurality of holes 34 that take different angular positions.
  • auxiliary constraint means 50 comprising a couple of arms 55a and 55b arranged horizontally in a telescopic way in respective brackets 56. These are connected to the support plane 5 at opposite sides and can rotate with respect to it. More in detail, the arms 55 at the free end have two U-shaped supports 61 and 62, that can relatively move towards/away from each other in order to hold between them a portion of the frame of the motorcycle 20, for example an arm of the fork of the rear wheel.
  • the angular position of each bracket 56 is adjusted by means of respective rods 57 hinged at 58 to the support plane 5.
  • Each arm 55 is therefore adapted to rotate and to translate, by sliding in the respective bracket 56, with respect to the motorcycle 20 on the support plane 5. In this way there is a certain freedom of movement through which it is possible to position the arms 55a and 55b with respect to the motorcycle 20. Once achieved the correct position the arms 55a and 55b are locked acting on knobs 53 and 54 (figure 10), causing the U-shaped supports to rotate up to bringing them up to a vertical position where they engage with the rear fork. Raising the support plane 5 the wheels remain suspended and all the load rear of the motorcycle 20 rests on the U-shaped supports and then is transmitted by the means of constraint auxiliary to the support plane 5.
