Description

Fahrersitz für ein Zweirad  Driver's seat for a two-wheeler
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Fahrersitz für ein Zweirad, insbesondere einen Roller, mit einer Sitzfläche und mit einer Konsole zur Verbindung der Sitzflä- che mit einer Karosserie des Zweirads. The invention relates to a driver's seat for a two-wheeled vehicle, in particular a scooter, with a seat surface and with a console for connecting the seat surface to a body of the two-wheeler.
Derartige Fahrersitze für Zweiräder sind aus dem allgemeinen Stand der Technik bekannt. Problematisch bei sämtlichen bekannten Lösungen ist jedoch die Tatsache, dass die Position der Sitzfläche, insbesondere im Verhältnis zu einer Lenkhandhabe des Zweirads, meist nur für eine bestimmte Anzahl an Personen geeignet ist. Ein Fahrer, für den der Fahrersitz zu nah oder zu weit entfernt von der Lenkhandhabe oder zu tief oder gar zu hoch angeordnet ist, kann das Zweirad entweder nicht oder nur eingeschränkt benutzen. Möglicherweise kann es bei einer entsprechenden Sitzposition sogar zu Situationen kommen, in denen aufgrund derselben eine Gefährdung im Straßenverkehr auftritt. Such two-wheeled driver's seats are known from the general state of the art. The problem with all known solutions, however, is the fact that the position of the seat, in particular in relation to a steering handle of the bicycle, is usually suitable only for a certain number of people. A driver for whom the driver's seat is too close or too far away from the steering handle or too low or too high, the bicycle can either not or only partially use. It may even come in a corresponding seating position even situations in which due to the same hazard in road traffic occurs.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Fahrersitz für ein Zweirad zu schaffen, der für eine größere Personengruppe geeignet ist. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a driver's seat for a bicycle, which is suitable for a larger group of people.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die in Anspruch 1 genannten Merkmale gelöst. Erfindungsgemäß ist der Fahrersitz durch die Verschieblichkeit der Konsole in Längsrichtung der Karosserie und der Verschieblichkeit der Sitzfläche in Höhenrichtung der Konsole in zwei Raumrichtungen verschieblich, so dass sich eine optimale Anpassung des Fahrersitzes an die Körpergröße des Benutzers und damit eine optimale Haltung desselben auf dem Zweirad ergibt. Dadurch kann für Personen jeglicher Körpergröße und jeglichen Körperbaus ein bequemer und sicherer Betrieb des mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Fahrersitz ausgestatteten Zweirads gewährleistet werden. Hinsichtlich der Nutzbarkeit des erfindungsgemäßen Fahrersitzes ist es von besonderem Vorteil, wenn in einer sehr vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung die Sitzfläche als Doppelsitzbank ausgebildet ist. According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features mentioned in claim 1. According to the driver's seat is displaceable by the displaceability of the console in the longitudinal direction of the body and the displaceability of the seat in the height direction of the console in two spatial directions, so that there is an optimal adjustment of the driver's seat to the user's height and thus an optimal attitude of the same on the bicycle , As a result, a comfortable and safe operation of the bicycle equipped with the driver's seat according to the invention two-wheeler can be ensured for persons of any body size and any physique. With regard to the usability of the driver's seat according to the invention, it is particularly advantageous if in a very advantageous embodiment of the invention, the seat is designed as a double seat.
Um eine einfache Verschieblichkeit der Konsole gegenüber der Karosserie zu ermöglichen, kann in einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vorgesehen sein, dass die Konsole in einer Führung der Karosserie geführt ist. In order to enable a simple displaceability of the console relative to the body, it can be provided in a further embodiment of the invention that the console is guided in a guide of the body.
Dabei ergibt sich eine besonders gute Anpassbarkeit des Fahrersitzes an den jeweiligen Nutzer, wenn die Konsole stufenlos in der Führung der Karosserie verschieblich und gegenüber der Karosserie verriegelbar ist. Des Wei- teren ist durch die Verriegelbarkeit der Konsole eine Fixierung der Position derselben und somit ein verkehrssicherer Betrieb des Zweirads gewährleistet. This results in a particularly good adaptability of the driver's seat to the respective user when the console is infinitely displaceable in the leadership of the body and lockable relative to the body. Furthermore, due to the lockability of the console, a fixation of the position of the same and thus a traffic-safe operation of the bicycle are ensured.
Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Konsole mittels eines Schnellspanners gegenüber der Karosserie verriegelbar ist. Auf diese Weise ist eine sehr einfache und sichere Verriegelung der Konsole gegenüber der Karosserie möglich. It can be provided that the console by means of a quick release against the body is locked. In this way, a very simple and secure locking of the console relative to the body is possible.
Des Weiteren kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Sitzfläche in einer Führung der Konsole geführt ist. Auf diese Weise lässt sich die Sitzfläche besonders einfach gegenüber der Konsole verstellen. Wenn dabei die Führung, in der die Sitzfläche in der Konsole geführt ist, kurvenförmig verläuft, so ist nicht nur ein gefälliges Äußeres des Fahrersitzes gewährleistet, sondern es wird auch der Tatsache Rechnung getragen, dass Personen mit geringerer Körpergröße nicht nur tiefer, sondern auch näher an einer Lenkhandhabe sitzen sollten. In einer weiteren, sehr vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Konsole ein Ablagefach aufweist. Dies ermöglicht ein zusätzliches Unterbringen von Gebrauchsgegenständen des Benutzers oder auch von für den Betrieb des Zweirads benötigten Einrichtungen, so dass die Nutzbarkeit des erfindungsgemäßen Fahrersitzes für das Zweirad wesentlich erhöht wird. Furthermore, it can be provided that the seat is guided in a guide of the console. In this way, the seat can be easily adjusted relative to the console. If the guide in which the seat is guided in the console, curves, not only a pleasing appearance of the driver's seat is guaranteed, but it is also taken into account the fact that people with smaller body size not only deeper, but also closer should sit on a steering handle. In a further, very advantageous embodiment of the invention can be provided that the console has a storage compartment. This allows additional accommodation of the user's utensils or also required for the operation of the bicycle facilities, so that the usability of the driver's seat according to the invention for the bicycle is substantially increased.
In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass in der Konsole zumindest Teile einer Antriebseinrichtung des Zweirads angeordnet sind. Dadurch wird ein ansonsten ungenutzter Raum einer sinnvollen Nutzung zugeführt, so dass den bei solchen Zweirädern stets vorhandenen Platzproblemen entgegengewirkt wird. In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention can be provided that at least parts of a drive device of the bicycle are arranged in the console. As a result, an otherwise unused space of meaningful use is supplied, so that the always present in such two-wheeled space problems is counteracted.
Beispielsweise kann vorgesehen sein, dass in der Konsole ein Elektromotor, ein Getriebe und/oder eine Batterie angeordnet ist. For example, it may be provided that an electric motor, a transmission and / or a battery is arranged in the console.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den restlichen Unteransprüchen. Nachfolgend ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung prinzipmäßig dargestellt. Further advantageous embodiments and modifications of the invention will become apparent from the remaining dependent claims. Hereinafter, an embodiment of the invention with reference to the drawing is shown in principle.

Fig. 10 einen Ständer für das Zweirad. Fig. 10 a stand for the bicycle.
Fig. 1 zeigt ein Zweirad 1 , im vorliegenden Fall einen Roller, mit einer Karosserie 2. An der Karosserie 2 sind unter anderem zwei Räder 3 angebracht, wie in den Seitenansichten der Figuren 2 und 3 besser erkennbar ist. Die Karosserie 2 weist ein Dachelement 4 und ein Ablagefach 5 auf. Wie nachfolgend ausführlich beschrieben, ist das Dachelement 4 um eine Drehachse 6 zwischen wenigstens zwei Positionen drehbar gelagert. Hierbei zeigt Fig. 1 eine erste, untere Position des Dachelements 4, Fig. 2 zeigt eine Zwischenstellung des Dachelements 4und Fig. 3 zeigt eine zweite, obere Positi- on desselben. Die Drehachse 6 ist im vorliegenden Fall in einem hinteren Bereich der Karosserie 2 vorgesehen, was zu einer optimalen Nutzbarkeit des Ablagefachs 5 führt. Die Drehachse 6 des Dachelements 4 gegenüber der Karosserie 2 kann auf an sich bekannte Art und Weise realisiert werden. 1 shows a bicycle 1, in the present case a scooter, with a body 2. On the body 2, inter alia, two wheels 3 are mounted, as in the side views of Figures 2 and 3 is better visible. The body 2 has a roof element 4 and a storage compartment 5. As described in detail below, the roof element 4 is rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation 6 between at least two positions. 1 shows a first, lower position of the roof element 4, FIG. 2 shows an intermediate position of the roof element 4, and FIG. 3 shows a second, upper position thereof. The axis of rotation 6 is provided in the present case in a rear region of the body 2, which leads to an optimal usability of the storage compartment 5. The axis of rotation 6 of the roof element 4 relative to the body 2 can be realized in a manner known per se.
Wie ebenfalls in den Figuren 1 bis 3 sowie in den Draufsichten der Figuren 4 und 5 erkennbar ist, weist das Dachelement 4 zwei parallel zueinander verlaufende Dachholme bzw. Dachstreben 7 auf. Die Dachstreben 7 sind mit einem Deckel 8 für das Ablagefach 5 verbunden bzw. einteilig mit demselben ausgeführt, der ebenfalls Teil des Dachelements 4 ist und mit demselben bewegt wird. As can likewise be seen in FIGS. 1 to 3 and in the plan views of FIGS. 4 and 5, the roof element 4 has two roof spars or roof struts 7 extending parallel to one another. The roof struts 7 are connected to a cover 8 for the storage compartment 5 or made in one piece with the same, which is also part of the roof element 4 and is moved with the same.
In Fig. 1 ist zu erkennen, dass in der ersten, unteren Position des Dachelements 4 die Dachstreben 7 seitlich eines Fahrersitzes 9 der Karosserie 2 des Zweirads 1 angeordnet sind. In dieser ersten, unteren Position des Dachelements 4 weist das Ablagefach 5 ein verkleinertes Volumen auf und ist mittels des Deckels 8 geschlossen. Dagegen sind in der zweiten, oberen Position des Dachelements 4 die Dachstreben 7 oberhalb des Fahrersitzes 9 ange- ordnet und das Ablagefach 5 weist ein vergrößertes Volumen auf. Das Volumen des Ablagefachs 5 kann in dieser Position des Dachelements 4 beispielsweise 120 - 150 Liter betragen. In dieser in Fig. 3 dargestellten Position des Dachelements 4 kann ein nicht dargestellter, sich auf dem Fahrersitz 9 befindender Fahrer direkt in das Ablagefach 5 greifen, da dasselbe in die- ser Stellung des Dachelements 4 geöffnet ist. Grundsätzlich wäre es denkbar, diese Öffnung des Ablagefachs 5 in Richtung des Fahrers mittels eines Rollos oder einer ähnlichen Trenneinrichtung zu verschließen. In Fig. 1 it can be seen that in the first, lower position of the roof element 4, the roof struts 7 side of a driver's seat 9 of the body 2 of the Two-wheeled 1 are arranged. In this first, lower position of the roof element 4, the storage compartment 5 has a reduced volume and is closed by means of the lid 8. In contrast, in the second, upper position of the roof element 4, the roof struts 7 are arranged above the driver's seat 9 and the storage compartment 5 has an enlarged volume. The volume of the storage compartment 5 may be, for example, 120-150 liters in this position of the roof element 4. In this position of the roof element 4 shown in FIG. 3, a driver (not shown) located on the driver's seat 9 can directly grasp the storage compartment 5, since the same is open in this position of the roof element 4. In principle, it would be conceivable to close this opening of the storage compartment 5 in the direction of the driver by means of a roller blind or a similar separating device.
Durch die beschriebene Ausführung des Dachelements 4 kann das Zweirad 1 in der unteren Position des Dachelements 4 wie ein üblicher Roller betrie- ben werden, der jedoch gegenüber bekannten Rollern durch das Ablagefach 5 ein vergrößertes Transportvolumen aufweist. In der oberen Position des Dachelements 4 ergibt sich für den Fahrer ein Wind- und Wetterschutz sowie ein vergrößertes Transportvolumen durch das noch weiter vergrößerte Volumen des Ablagefachs 5. Durch die geschwungene Form des Dachelements 4 mit den Dachstreben 7 und dem Deckel 8 ergibt sich dabei insgesamt in beiden Positionen des Dachelements 4 ein sehr harmonisches Gesamtbild der Karosserie 2 und damit des gesamten Zweirads 1 . As a result of the described design of the roof element 4, the two-wheeled vehicle 1 can be operated in the lower position of the roof element 4 like a conventional scooter, but has an increased transport volume compared to known scooters through the storage compartment 5. In the upper position of the roof element 4 results for the driver wind and weather protection and an increased transport volume through the still further increased volume of the storage compartment 5. Due to the curved shape of the roof element 4 with the roof struts 7 and the cover 8 results in total in both positions of the roof element 4 is a very harmonious overall picture of the body 2 and thus of the entire two-wheeled first
Das Dachelement 4 kann in seinen beiden Positionen, also in der ersten, un- teren Position sowie in der zweiten, oberen Position, verriegelbar sein. Beispielsweise sind im vorliegenden Fall in der oberen Position des Dachelements 4 die Dachstreben 7 mit einem Windschutzscheibenrahmen 10 der Karosserie 2 verbunden und es kann vorgesehen sein, die Dachstreben 7 mit dem Windschutzscheibenrahmen 10 verriegelbar auszuführen. Selbstverständlich kann die Verriegelung der Dachstreben 7 auch in einem anderen Bereich erfolgen. In der unteren Position des Dachelements 4 ist die Verriegelung der Dachstreben 7 mit einer Bodengruppe 1 1 der Karosserie 2 des Zweirads 1 vorstellbar. Beispielsweise ist es jedoch auch möglich, das Dachelement 4 im Bereich der Drehachse 6 zu verriegeln, was eine Verriegelung des Dachelements 4 in beiden Positionen sowie gegebenenfalls in Zwischenstellungen ermöglichen würde. Auch Kombinationen hiervon sind denkbar. Der Windschutzscheibenrahmen 10 ist dabei nach relativ weit oben geführt und bietet somit einen guten Wind- und Wetterschutz. Durch die Verbindung des Windschutzscheibenrahmens 10 mit dem Dachelement 4 ergibt sich eine zumindest an der Oberseite vollkommen geschlossene Karosserie 2. In nicht dargestellter Weise können auch in den beiden seitlichen Bereichen der Ka- rosserie 2 entsprechende Abdeckungen, beispielsweise in Form geeigneter Planen bzw. Folien, vorgesehen sein, um einen noch besseren Wetterschutz zu erreichen. The roof element 4 can be lockable in its two positions, ie in the first, lower position and in the second, upper position. For example, in the present case in the upper position of the roof element 4, the roof struts 7 are connected to a windshield frame 10 of the body 2 and it can be provided, the roof struts 7 with perform the windshield frame 10 lockable. Of course, the locking of the roof struts 7 can also be done in a different area. In the lower position of the roof element 4, the locking of the roof struts 7 with a bottom group 1 1 of the body 2 of the bicycle 1 is conceivable. For example, it is also possible to lock the roof element 4 in the region of the axis of rotation 6, which would allow a locking of the roof element 4 in both positions and optionally in intermediate positions. Also combinations of these are conceivable. The windshield frame 10 is guided relatively far above and thus provides good wind and weather protection. The connection of the windshield frame 10 to the roof element 4 results in a body 2 which is completely closed at the top. In a manner not shown, corresponding covers can also be provided in the two lateral regions of the body 2, for example in the form of suitable tarpaulins or foils. be provided to achieve even better weather protection.
In nicht dargestellter Weise können die Dachstreben 7 so ausgeführt sein, dass sie in das Dachelement 4 eingefahren werden können. Dadurch würden sich die Dachstreben 7 nicht mehr seitlich des Fahrersitzes 9, sondern hinter demselben befinden. Dadurch ergibt sich insbesondere für einen sich auf dem Fahrersitz 9 befindenden Beifahrer verbesserte Platzverhältnisse. In ihrem in das Dachelement 4 eingefahrenen Zustand können die Dachstreben 7 gegebenenfalls auch verriegelt werden. In den Figuren 4 und 5 ist erkennbar, dass zwischen den Dachstreben 7 ein Abdeckelement 12 vorgesehen ist, das zwischen einer geöffneten Stellung, die in Fig. 4 annähernd erreicht ist, und einer in Fig. 5 dargestellten geschlossenen Stellung verstellt werden kann. Selbstverständlich sind auch Zwischenstellungen des Abdeckelements 12 denkbar. In der Position des Dachelements 4 gemäß Fig. 1 sollte sich das Abdeckelement 12 in seiner geöffneten Position befinden, sodass das Dachelement 4 in seine untere Position gebracht werden kann, ohne dass das Abdeckelement 12 mit dem Fahrer bzw. dem Fahrersitz 9 kollidiert. In a manner not shown, the roof struts 7 may be designed so that they can be retracted into the roof element 4. As a result, the roof struts 7 would no longer be located laterally of the driver's seat 9, but behind it. This results in improved space, in particular for a front passenger located on the driver's seat 9. In their retracted into the roof element 4 state, the roof struts 7 may optionally also be locked. In Figures 4 and 5 it can be seen that between the roof struts 7, a cover 12 is provided which can be adjusted between an open position, which is approximately reached in Fig. 4, and a closed position shown in Fig. 5. Of course, too Intermediate positions of the cover 12 conceivable. In the position of the roof element 4 according to FIG. 1, the cover element 12 should be in its open position, so that the roof element 4 can be brought into its lower position without the cover element 12 colliding with the driver or the driver's seat 9.
Das Abdeckelement 12 kann in einer nicht dargestellten Aufnahme in dem Ablagefach 5 aufnehmbar sein. Dort kann das Abdeckelement 12 beispielsweise aufgerollt bzw. aufgewickelt werden, wenn es aus einem entsprechenden flexiblen Material besteht. Statt als aufwickelbares Abdeckelement 12 kann dasselbe auch aus mehreren Teilen ausgeführt und gegebenenfalls faltbar sein. Grundsätzlich kann das Abdeckelement 12 beispielsweise aus einem geeigneten Kunststoffmaterial bestehen, und zwar je nach Ausführung aus einer Kunststofffolie oder aus einem härteren Kunststoffmaterial. The cover 12 may be receivable in a storage, not shown, in the storage compartment 5. There, the cover 12 can be rolled up or wound up, for example, if it consists of a corresponding flexible material. Instead of being wound up cover element 12, the same can also be made of several parts and optionally foldable. Basically, the cover 12 may for example consist of a suitable plastic material, depending on the design of a plastic film or a harder plastic material.
Gegebenenfalls kann sowohl die Bewegung des Dachelements 4 als auch die Bewegung des Abdeckelements 12 durch einen pneumatischen, hydraulischen oder elektrischen Antrieb erfolgen und gegebenenfalls gesteuert sein. Im Falle einer solchen Steuerung ist es selbstverständlich denkbar, das Abdeckelement 12 in seine geöffnete Stellung zu bringen bevor das Dachelement 4 in seine untere Position gebracht wird. Jedoch ist auch eine rein manuelle Betätigung des Dachelements 4 und/oder des Abdeckelements 12 vorstellbar. Optionally, both the movement of the roof element 4 and the movement of the cover 12 may be effected by a pneumatic, hydraulic or electric drive and optionally controlled. In the case of such a control, it is of course conceivable to bring the cover 12 in its open position before the roof element 4 is brought into its lower position. However, a purely manual operation of the roof element 4 and / or the cover 12 is conceivable.
Für den Antrieb des Zweirads 1 kann ein nicht dargestellter Elektromotor als Antriebsquelle vorgesehen sein. Dieser kann beispielsweise in einer Radnabe eines der Räder 3 angeordnet sein. Des Weiteren können in der Boden- gruppe 1 1 der Karosserie 2 diesen Elektromotor mit elektrischem Strom versorgende Batterien bzw. wenigstens eine Batterie angeordnet sein. Dies ist in den Figuren jedoch ebenfalls nicht dargestellt. Gegebenenfalls kann der Antrieb des Zweirads 1 auch durch einen konventionellen Verbrennungsmo- tor erfolgen. Selbstverständlich sind auch Hybrid-, Plug-in-Hybrid- und andere geeignete Antriebsquellen möglich. For driving the bicycle 1, an electric motor, not shown, may be provided as a drive source. This can be arranged for example in a wheel hub of the wheels 3. Furthermore, in the bottom group 1 1 of the body 2, this electric motor can be supplied with batteries supplying electric current or at least one battery. However, this is also not shown in the figures. If necessary, the drive of the two-wheeler 1 can also be achieved by a conventional combustion engine. gate. Of course, hybrid, plug-in hybrid and other suitable drive sources are also possible.
Die Figuren 6 und 7 zeigen den Fahrersitz 9 des Zweirads 1 in einer detaillierteren Darstellung. Der Fahrersitz 9 weist eine im vorliegenden Fall als Doppelsitzbank ausgebildete Sitzfläche 13 und eine Konsole 14 zur Verbindung der Sitzfläche 13 mit der Karosserie 2, im vorliegenden Fall mit der Bodengruppe 1 1 , auf. Hierbei ist die Konsole 14 gegenüber der Karosserie 2 in der mit "x" bezeichneten Längsrichtung des Zweirads 1 verschieblich angeordnet. Die Sitzfläche 13 ist gegenüber der Konsole 14 zumindest in der mit "z" bezeichneten Höhenrichtung des Zweirads 1 verschieblich angeordnet. Figures 6 and 7 show the driver's seat 9 of the two-wheeled vehicle 1 in a more detailed representation. The driver's seat 9 has a seat 13 formed in the present case as a double seat bench and a bracket 14 for connecting the seat 13 to the body 2, in the present case with the floor assembly 11. In this case, the console 14 is arranged displaceably relative to the body 2 in the longitudinal direction of the bicycle 1 labeled "x". The seat surface 13 is arranged displaceably relative to the bracket 14, at least in the height direction of the bicycle 1 designated by "z".
Wie in der Ansicht von Fig. 7 erkennbar ist, ist die Konsole 14 in einer Führung 15 der Karosserie 2, im vorliegenden Fall der Bodengruppe 1 1 , geführt. Dabei kann die Konsole 14 stufenlos in der Führung 15 verschieblich und gegenüber der Karosserie 2 verriegelbar sein. Zur Verriegelung der Konsole 14 gegenüber der Führung 15 der Karosserie 2 kann beispielsweise ein nicht dargestellter Schnellspanner vorgesehen sein. As can be seen in the view of Fig. 7, the console 14 in a guide 15 of the body 2, in the present case, the bottom group 1 1, out. In this case, the console 14 can be infinitely displaceable in the guide 15 and lockable relative to the body 2. For locking the console 14 relative to the guide 15 of the body 2, for example, an unillustrated quick release can be provided.
Aus Fig. 6 geht hervor, dass die Sitzfläche 13 in einer Führung 16 in der Konsole 14 geführt ist. Die Führung 16 verläuft dabei kurvenförmig, sodass eine Verstellung der Sitzfläche 13 gegenüber der Konsole 14 in der Höhen- richtung z mit einer Verstellung der Sitzfläche 13 auch in der Horizontalrichtung x einhergeht. Vorzugsweise ist auch die Sitzfläche 13 in der Konsole 14 stufenlos verschiebbar. From Fig. 6 shows that the seat 13 is guided in a guide 16 in the console 14. The guide 16 runs in a curved manner, so that an adjustment of the seat surface 13 relative to the console 14 in the height direction z is accompanied by an adjustment of the seat surface 13 also in the horizontal direction x. Preferably, the seat 13 in the console 14 is continuously displaceable.
Die Führungen 15 und 16 sind in dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel jeweils als Nut ausgeführt, in die ein entsprechendes Teil der Konsole 14 bzw. der Sitzfläche 13 eingreift. The guides 15 and 16 are executed in the illustrated embodiment, each as a groove into which a corresponding part of the console 14 and the seat 13 engages.
Die Konsole 14 weist außerdem ein Ablagefach 17 auf, in dem der Nutzer des Zweirads 1 verschiedene Gegenstände unterbringen kann und das ge- gebenenfalls mit einem nicht dargestellten Deckel verschließbar sein kann. Des Weiteren sind im vorliegenden Fall innerhalb der Konsole 14 Teile einer Antriebseinrichtung des Zweirads 1 angeordnet. Konkret kann es sich dabei um einen sehr schematisch angedeuteten Elektromotor 18, ein Getriebe 19 und/oder eine Batterie 20 handeln. Der Elektromotor 18, das Getriebe 19 und/oder die Batterie 20 können zusätzlich oder statt des oben beschriebenen, in dem Rad 3 angeordneten Elektromotors und der oben beschriebenen, in der Bodengruppe 1 1 angeordneten Batterie vorgesehen sein. Bei dem Getriebe 19 kann es sich beispielsweise um ein Automatikgetriebe han- dein und dasselbe kann zum Beispiel als Riemengetriebe ausgeführt sein. The console 14 also has a storage compartment 17 in which the user of the bicycle 2 can accommodate various objects and if necessary, can be closed with a lid, not shown. Furthermore, 14 parts of a drive device of the bicycle 1 are arranged in the present case within the console. Specifically, this may be a very schematically indicated electric motor 18, a transmission 19 and / or a battery 20. The electric motor 18, the gear 19 and / or the battery 20 may be provided in addition to or instead of the above-described, arranged in the wheel 3 electric motor and the above-described, arranged in the bottom group 1 1 battery. The transmission 19 can be, for example, an automatic transmission and the same can be designed, for example, as a belt transmission.
Die Figuren 8 und 9 zeigen ein Cockpit 21 des Zweirads 1 . Das Cockpit 21 weist einen Grundkörper 22 auf, an dem eine Anzeige 23 und ein Lenker bzw. eine Lenkhandhabe 24 angebracht sind. FIGS. 8 and 9 show a cockpit 21 of the bicycle 1. The cockpit 21 has a base body 22 on which a display 23 and a handlebar or a steering handle 24 are mounted.
Um eine Anpassung des Cockpits an unterschiedliche Nutzer bzw. Fahrer des Zweirads 1 zu ermöglichen, ist der Grundkörper 22 drehbar an der Karosserie 2 des Zweirads 1 gelagert. Im vorliegenden Fall ist der Grundkörper 22 an einer wenigstens annähernd horizontal verlaufenden Drehachse 25 mit der Karosserie 2 verbunden. Die Drehachse 25 befindet sich dabei im Bereich des Windschutzscheibenrahmens 10. Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Grundkörper 22 in wenigstens zwei, gegebenenfalls auch mehreren Positionen gegenüber der Karosserie 2 verriegelbar ist. Diese Verriegelbarkeit des Grundkörpers 22 gegenüber der Karosserie 2 kann mit einem nicht dargestellten Schnellspanner oder einer ähnlichen Einrichtung gewährleistet werden. Zusätzlich oder alternativ ist es auch möglich, den Grundkörper 22 in definierten Raststellungen gegenüber der Karosserie 2 anzuordnen. In order to enable an adaptation of the cockpit to different users or drivers of the two-wheeled vehicle 1, the main body 22 is rotatably mounted on the body 2 of the two-wheeled vehicle 1. In the present case, the base body 22 is connected to the body 2 at an axis of rotation 25 extending at least approximately horizontally. The axis of rotation 25 is located in the region of the windshield frame 10. It can be provided that the base body 22 in at least two, possibly even a plurality of positions relative to the body 2 can be locked. This lockability of the base body 22 relative to the body 2 can be ensured with a quick release, not shown, or a similar device. Additionally or alternatively, it is also possible to arrange the base body 22 in defined locking positions relative to the body 2.
Der Grundkörper 22 ist im vorliegenden Fall als Rahmen 22a ausgebildet, der die Anzeige 23 zumindest teilweise umgibt. Im dargestellten Ausfüh- rungsbeispiel ist der Rahmen 22a trapezförmig ausgeführt und umgibt die Anzeige 23 an allen vier Seiten. The base body 22 is formed in the present case as a frame 22a, which surrounds the display 23 at least partially. In the illustrated embodiment For example, the frame 22a is made trapezoidal and surrounds the display 23 on all four sides.
Die Lenkhandhabe 24 bzw. der Lenker weist mehrere Bedienelemente 26 auf. Im vorliegenden Fall umfassen die Bedienelemente 26 einen Gasgriff, einen Bremshebel und eine Blinkerbetätigung. Selbstverständlich können noch weitere Bedienelemente 26, wie zum Beispiel ein Kupplungshebel, vorgesehen sein oder es können auch verschiedene Bedienelemente 26 weggelassen werden. The steering handle 24 or the handlebar has a plurality of operating elements 26. In the present case, the controls 26 include a throttle grip, a brake lever, and a turn signal actuator. Of course, further controls 26, such as a clutch lever, may be provided, or various controls 26 may be omitted.
Die Verbindung von der Lenkhandhabe 24 zu dem gelenkten Rad 3 kann bei dieser Verstellung des Cockpits 21 ebenfalls verstellt werden. Des Weiteren kann diese Verbindung auch als sogenannte und an sich bekannte Drive-by- Wire-Lenkung ausgeführt sein, sodass zwischen der Lenkhandhabe 24 und dem vorderen Rad 3 keine mechanische Verbindung besteht. The connection of the steering handle 24 to the steered wheel 3 can also be adjusted in this adjustment of the cockpit 21. Furthermore, this connection can also be designed as a so-called drive-by-wire steering known per se, so that there is no mechanical connection between the steering handle 24 and the front wheel 3.
In Fig. 10 ist ein Ständer 27 dargestellt, mit dem das Zweirad 1 auf dem Bo- den abgestellt werden kann. Der Ständer 27 weist einen Ständerabschnitt 27a auf, der zwischen einer oberen Position und einer unteren Position an einer Drehachse 28 drehbar an der Karosserie 2 gelagert ist. In der unteren Position des Ständerabschnitts 27a bietet der Ständer 27 eine Abstützung der Karosserie 2 und somit des Zweirads 1 am Boden. Des Weiteren weist der Ständer 27 ein Federelement 29 auf, das so ausgebildet ist, dass es den Ständerabschnitt 27a durch die Federkraft nach unten drückt. Zum Zurückstellen des Ständerabschnitts 27a in die obere Position dient im vorliegenden Fall eine als Elektromotor 30 ausgebildete Antriebseinrichtung, die in der Lage ist, eine Drehbewegung des Ständerabschnitts 27a um seine Drehachse 28 an der Karosserie 2 zu bewirken. Der Elektromotor 30 kann beispielsweise direkt an der Drehachse 28, an der der Ständer 27 an der Karosserie 2 drehbar gelagert ist, angeordnet sein. Der Ständerabschnitt 27a kann dabei in eine derartige Position nach unten gefahren werden, dass die Räder 3 dennoch auf dem Boden aufliegen. FIG. 10 shows a stand 27 with which the two-wheeled vehicle 1 can be parked on the floor. The stator 27 has a stator section 27a, which is rotatably mounted on the body 2 between an upper position and a lower position on an axis of rotation 28. In the lower position of the upright portion 27a, the upright 27 provides support to the body 2 and thus to the bicycle 1 on the ground. Further, the stator 27 has a spring member 29 which is formed so as to press the stator portion 27a downward by the spring force. To reset the stator portion 27a in the upper position is used in the present case designed as an electric motor 30 drive means which is capable of causing a rotational movement of the stator portion 27a about its axis of rotation 28 on the body 2. The electric motor 30 can be arranged, for example, directly on the rotation axis 28, on which the stand 27 is rotatably mounted on the body 2. The stator section 27a can be moved down into a position such that the wheels 3 still rest on the ground.
Dadurch müsste das Federelement 29 nur so stark ausgelegt werden, dass es nicht notwendig wäre, mit demselben das gesamte Gewicht des Zweirads 1 anzuheben. Durch den Ständer 27 wird also in jedem Fall ein Umfallen des Zweirads 1 verhindert. An seinem unteren Ende kann der Ständerabschnitt 27a mit nicht dargestellten Rädern versehen sein, die ein Rangieren des Zweirads 1 auch bei heruntergeklapptem Ständer 27 ermöglichen. As a result, the spring element 29 would only have to be designed so strongly that it would not be necessary to lift the entire weight of the bicycle 1 with it. By the stand 27 so falling over of the two-wheeler 1 is prevented in any case. At its lower end, the stand portion 27a may be provided with wheels, not shown, which allow maneuvering of the two-wheeled vehicle 1 even when the stand 27 is folded down.
Des Weiteren kann eine nicht dargestellte Verriegelungseinrichtung vorgese- hen sein, mit welcher der Ständerabschnitt 27a in der oberen Position verriegelt werden kann, sodass es nicht notwendig ist, den Elektromotor 30 ständig zu betreiben, um den Ständerabschnitt 27a in der oberen Position zu halten. Im vorliegenden Fall ist der Ständerabschnitt 27a im Wesentlichen U-förmig ausgebildet. Es wäre jedoch auch möglich, zwei voneinander unabhängige Ständerabschnitte 27a vorzusehen oder lediglich einen Ständerabschnitt 27a, der dann statt in der Form eines Hauptständers in der Form eines Seitenständers ausgeführt wäre. Furthermore, a locking device, not shown, may be provided, with which the stator portion 27a can be locked in the upper position, so that it is not necessary to operate the electric motor 30 constantly to keep the stator portion 27a in the upper position. In the present case, the stator portion 27a is formed substantially U-shaped. However, it would also be possible to provide two independent stand sections 27a, or merely a stand section 27a, which would then be in the form of a side stand instead of in the form of a main stand.
Sämtliche der oben beschriebenen Verriegelungen bzw. Verriegelungseinrichtungen der einzelnen Bauteile bzw. Elemente des Zweirads 1 können auf die unterschiedlichsten Arten realisiert werden, beispielsweise manuell, pneumatisch, hydraulisch oder elektrisch. All of the interlocks or locking devices of the individual components or elements of the bicycle 1 described above can be realized in a variety of ways, for example manually, pneumatically, hydraulically or electrically.
