Description

  The present invention relates to a meter device, and more particularly to an improved structure of a meter device in which a plurality of symbols are imprinted on the bottom surface of an upper lid applied to a motorcycle meter device and coupled to a pedestal.

  There are many types of means of transportation, and among them, motorcycles are inexpensive, high in mobility, and easy to park and park, so many people use motorcycles instead of walking on their own. In addition, a meter device is disposed in front of the direction changing mechanism of the motorcycle, and traveling information such as speed, fuel amount, and engine speed is displayed on the display unit.

  However, in the above-described conventional meter device, in many cases, a transparent lid is coupled above the pedestal so that the driver can see driving information displayed on the display unit of the meter device through the transparent lid. It has become. For this reason, the driving state of the vehicle is clearly understood, which is useful for driving a motorcycle. However, in order to enable the driver to better understand the driving state of the vehicle, the driving information displayed on the display unit is becoming increasingly complex, the manufacturing cost is rising, and the driver The information may be confused or misunderstood, and the aesthetics also deteriorated.

  The present inventor considers that the above disadvantages can be improved, and as a result of intensive studies, he designed an improved structure of the meter device that can effectively use the space and improve the aesthetics, improve the disadvantages of the conventional technology, Increase industrial utility value.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems of the prior art. That is, according to the present invention, a plurality of symbols are engraved on the bottom surface of the upper lid and coupled to the pedestal, the number of extra items to be installed is reduced, the internal space of the meter device is saved, and the driver and these It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved structure of a meter device applied to a motorcycle that is close to a symbol, is easy for a driver to see, and improves overall aesthetics.

  The improved structure of the meter device according to the present invention for solving the above-described problems and achieving the object includes a pedestal and an upper lid installed at the upper end of the pedestal. At least one symbol is engraved on the bottom surface of the upper lid.

  In the improved structure of the meter device according to the present invention, preferably, the pedestal is provided with at least one corresponding hole at a position corresponding to the symbol, and a light emitting unit is provided in the corresponding hole. When the light emitting unit emits light, these symbols are displayed on the upper lid.

  In the improved structure of the meter device according to the present invention, preferably, the upper lid is formed by injection molding.

  In the improved structure of the meter device according to the present invention, preferably, the upper lid is coupled to the upper end of the pedestal using an insert molding method.

  In the improved structure of the meter device of the present invention, preferably, the upper lid is made of a polymethyl methacrylate resin (PMMA) material.

  In the improved structure of the meter device according to the present invention, preferably, the upper lid is made of a translucent material.

  In the improved structure of the meter device according to the present invention, the pedestal is preferably made of a plastic material.

  In the improved structure of the meter device of the present invention, preferably, the outer shape of these symbols is circular.

  In the improved structure of the meter device of the present invention, preferably, the outer shape of these symbols is a polygon.

1 is an external perspective view showing an improved structure of a meter device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. 1 is a development view showing an improved structure of a meter device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It is sectional drawing which follows the AA line of FIG. It is an external appearance perspective view which shows the improved structure of the meter apparatus by other embodiment of this invention.

  DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below.

  First, the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. An improved structure 10 for a meter device according to the present invention includes a pedestal 11 and an upper lid 12 installed at the upper end of the pedestal 11. At least one symbol 122 is engraved on the bottom surface 121 of the upper lid 12, and the outer shape of the symbol 122 is circular or polygonal (for example, rectangular, trapezoidal, pentagonal, hexagonal, etc.) (FIGS. 1 to 5). 4).

  The pedestal 11 is provided with at least one corresponding hole 111 at a position corresponding to the symbol 122, and a light emitting unit 112 is provided in each of the corresponding holes 111. When the light emitting units 112 emit light, the symbols 122 are displayed on the upper lid 12. These light emitting units 112 are LED lights.

  The upper lid 12 is first manufactured by injection molding using a polymethylmethacrylate resin (PMMA) or a translucent material. After molding, the symbols 122 are printed with ink on the bottom surface 121 of the upper lid 12. Thereafter, the upper lid 12 on which the symbols 122 are engraved on the bottom surface 121 is installed in the module, and is joined to the upper end of the pedestal 11 using an insert molding method. The pedestal 11 is made of a plastic material.

  As described above, the present invention reliably provides an improved structure for a meter device applied to a motorcycle. A plurality of symbols are engraved on the bottom surface of the upper lid and coupled to the pedestal, thereby reducing the number of extra items to be installed. For example, the number of decorative plates and other fixing members that are divided into a plurality of display areas and improve the display effect is reduced, and the internal space of the meter device is saved. In addition, the distance between the driver and the symbols becomes closer, and the driver can easily see. Since the outline of these symbols is unified, the overall aesthetics are also improved.

  The above-described embodiments are merely for explaining the technical idea and features of the present invention, and are intended to allow those skilled in the art to understand the contents of the present invention and to carry out the present invention. It is not intended to limit the scope of the claims. Accordingly, improvements or modifications having various similar effects without departing from the spirit of the present invention shall be included in the following claims.
