[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a motorcycle handle cover, and more particularly, to a front cover, a rear cover,
The present invention also relates to a handlebar cover for a motorcycle comprising a pair of left and right side covers assembled together.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional handle cover of this type is assembled by screwing a front cover, a rear cover, and a pair of left and right side covers to each other.

In the above-mentioned conventional handle cover, as shown in FIG. 5, a positioning tongue A having a fitting slit a is protruded from an inner surface of a front cover F, while a positioning claw is formed on an edge of a rear cover R. By forming the positioning claws B and fitting the positioning claws B into the fitting slits a of the positioning tongue pieces A, the rear cover is positioned with respect to the front cover A during the assembling work, thereby improving the work efficiency.

[0004]

In the above-described handle cover, the front cover F is attached to the rear cover R.
When assembling, it is also affected by large parts,
Positioning claw B on narrow fitting slit a of positioning tongue A
It is difficult to insert the positioning tongue A of the front cover F with the positioning claw B of the rear cover R, and sometimes the positioning tongue A is broken in the worst case, This has led to the inconvenience that it is difficult to align the components during the assembly work.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and has as its object to provide a motorcycle handle cover capable of reliably performing alignment between components during an assembly operation.

[0006]

Accordingly, in the present invention, an auxiliary tongue is fitted to a side cover constituting a handle cover, and a positioning tongue provided on the front cover when the side cover is assembled to the front cover. The above purpose is achieved by providing a piece.

[0007]

According to the above construction, when the side cover is assembled to the front cover, the positioning tongue of the front cover is reinforced by the auxiliary tongue of the side cover, and the positioning tongue is not deformed or broken. It is prevented beforehand.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings showing one embodiment.

The motorcycle 1 shown in FIG. 4 employs a handle cover 10 according to the present invention. The handle cover 10 covers the handlebar,
The handlebar cover 10 is equipped with headlights 2, left and right turn signal lamps 3 and 4, meters 5 and the like.

The handle cover 10 includes a front cover 11 and a rear cover 12 as shown in FIG.
And the right side cover 13R and the left side cover 13L
And each of the covers 11, 12, 13R, 1
3L are assembled into a predetermined shape by screwing them together.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a positioning tongue 21 is projected from the inner surface of the rear edge of the front cover 11, and the positioning tongue 21 has a fitting slit 21a to be released rearward. It is formed so as to extend in the front-rear direction, and further, a guide slope 21b is formed at the open side edge of the fitting slit 21a.

On the other hand, at the front edge of the rear cover 12, a positioning claw 22 that fits into a fitting slit 21a of the positioning tongue piece 21 at the time of assembly is projected forward.

A reinforcing tongue 23R projects substantially in the horizontal direction from the inner surface of the right side cover 13R. The reinforcing tongue 23R has a slit 23Ra which is opened forward.
Are formed so as to extend in the front-rear direction, and a guide slope 23Rb is formed on the open side edge of the slit 23Ra.
Are formed.

As shown in FIG. 3, the right side cover 13R is formed with auxiliary tongues 23R at the upper and lower portions, while the left side cover 13L is reinforced at the upper and lower portions, respectively. A tongue piece 23L is formed.

To assemble the handle cover 10 having the above structure, first, the front cover 11 is attached to the right side cover 13.
Assemble R and left side cover 13L. At this time,
As is clear from FIG. 3, each side cover 13R, 1
Since 3L is a relatively small component, the front cover 1
1 is easy to assemble. Here, by attaching the side cover 13R to the front cover 11, the positioning tongue piece 21 of the front cover 11 becomes the auxiliary tongue piece 23 formed on the side cover 13R as shown in FIG.
The auxiliary tongue piece 23 fits into the slit 23Ra of the R
It looks like it is pinched by R from left and right. The front cover 11 has a plurality of positioning tongues (not shown) similar to the positioning tongues 21.
These positioning tongue pieces are auxiliary tongue pieces 23R formed on the upper and lower parts of the right side cover 13R, and reinforcing tongue pieces 23 formed on the upper and lower parts of the left side cover 13L.
L respectively.

The right side cover 13 is attached to the front cover 11.
After the R and the left side cover 13L are assembled and screwed together, the rear cover 12 is assembled to the front cover 11. Here, the fitting slit 2 of the positioning tongue piece 21 is used.
When the positioning claw 22 of the rear cover 12 is fitted into the front cover 1a, the positioning tongue piece 21 of the front cover 11 is reinforced by being sandwiched by the auxiliary tongue piece 23R of the right side cover 13R as described above. Piece 2
Even when an unexpected external force acts on the positioning tongue 1, the positioning tongue piece 21 is not easily deformed. Thus, the work of positioning the rear cover 12 with respect to the front cover 11
Implemented easily and reliably.

The positioning claw 2 is inserted into the fitting slit 21a.
2 and the front cover 11 and the rear cover 1
After the mutual alignment with the front cover 2, the rear cover 12 is screwed to the front cover 11 to complete the assembly work of the handle cover 10.

[0018]

As described above in detail, according to the handlebar cover of the motorcycle according to the present invention, the side cover constituting the handlebar cover is provided on the front cover in a state where the side cover is assembled to the front cover. Since the auxiliary tongue that fits with the provided positioning tongue is provided, the positioning tongue of the front cover is reinforced by the auxiliary tongue of the side cover when the side cover is attached to the front cover. Becomes

Therefore, the positioning tongue is prevented from being deformed or broken during the assembling operation, and the positioning between the components during the assembling operation can be reliably performed.

Further, according to the present invention, the positioning of the side cover with respect to the front cover can be easily performed by engaging the positioning claw with the positioning tongue.
