[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 4 relate to a reference example , FIG. 1 is a side view of a rear part of a vehicle body showing a use state, FIG. 2 is a view showing a bag attachment state from the rear of the vehicle body, FIG. FIG. 4 is a view showing a detailed structure of a rear part of a vehicle body.
[0011]
In FIG. 1, a seat 1, a rear cowl 2 and a rear wheel 3 are arranged in order from the top to the bottom at the rear of the motorcycle. The seat 1 and the rear cowl 2 are supported by a seat rail (described later) that is a part of the body frame. In the figure, reference numeral 4 denotes a rear frame that forms a part of the vehicle body frame, and 5 denotes a step holder to which a passenger's pillion step 6 is attached. 7 is a rear fork, 8 is a rear cushion, and 9 is an axle.
[0012]
A bag 10 is detachably attached from the lower side surface of the seat 1 to the side of the rear wheel 3. The lower part of the bag 10 is supported at a position overlapping the rear wheel 3 in a side view. As shown in an inverted manner above the seat, the upper hook 11 and the lower hook 12 are provided on the back surface 10a of the bag 10 (the surface that becomes the non-appearance surface on the vehicle body side when attached). Two upper hooks 11 are provided at intervals in the front-rear direction, and the lower hook 12 is provided closer to the front side of the vehicle body. Reference numeral 10b denotes a handle.
[0013]
As shown in the enlarged portion A of FIG. 2, the upper hook 11 is a member having a substantially U-shaped cross section including a pair of opposing pieces 11a and 11b, and one opposing piece 11a is attached to the back surface 10a, The opposing piece 11b is provided with a locking groove 13 extending in the vertical direction at the center and having its lower end opened. The facing pieces 11a and 11b have a predetermined interval.
[0014]
As shown in FIG. 2, the seat rail 20 is disposed in the front-rear direction in a pair of left and right above the rear wheel 3, and the rear cowl 2 covers from the side to the rear. A side portion of the seat rail 20 is provided with a first attachment portion 21 with which the upper hook 11 is engaged. The first mounting portion 21 is a pin-like member provided on the seat rail 20, and a shaft portion 21 a that protrudes sideways from the seat rail 20 and an engaging portion that is a large-diameter head provided at the tip thereof. 22.
[0015]
The shaft portion 21a passes through a hole 26 formed in the side portion of the rear cowl 2 and protrudes substantially horizontally from the seat rail 20 toward the outside, and together with the engaging portion 22 provided at the tip thereof, the first mounting portion The whole 21 has a shape that is difficult to be seen in a side view.
[0016]
The outer diameter of the shaft portion 21 a is narrower than the width of the locking groove 13, and the outer diameter of the engaging portion 22 is wider than the width of the locking groove 13. As shown in the enlarged portion A, the shaft portion 21a can move in the locking groove 13, and the thickness of the engaging portion 22 is about the distance between the pair of opposed pieces 11a and 11b, and the pair of opposed pieces 11a. , 11b, the engaging portion 22 can be inserted.
[0017]
Therefore, when the engaging portion 22 is aligned between the pair of opposing pieces 11a and 11b and the locking groove 13 is aligned with the shaft portion 21a and the upper hook 11 is moved downward, the shaft portion 21a enters the locking groove 13. At the same time, the engaging portion 22 enters between the pair of opposed pieces 11 a and 11 b and is prevented from coming off, whereby the upper hook 11 is locked to the first mounting portion 21.
[0018]
As shown in the enlarged portion B of FIG. 2, the lower hook 12 has the same structure as the upper hook 11 and is a member having a substantially U-shaped cross section having a pair of opposing pieces 12a and 12b. Includes a locking groove 14. Similarly to the upper hook 11, the lower hook 12 has a substantially U-shaped cross section and has a pair of opposing pieces 12a and 12b. The second mounting portion 23 with which the lower hook 12 is engaged is composed of a shaft portion 23a projecting laterally from an extension portion 25 provided at the rear end of the step holder 5 and a large-diameter head portion provided at the tip thereof. The engaging portion 24 is provided.
[0019]
The relationship between the shaft portion 23a and the engaging portion 24 in the second mounting portion 23 with respect to the lower hook 12 is the same as the relationship between the first mounting portion 21 and the upper hook 11, and the lower hook 12 is connected to the second mounting portion. 23 can be engaged. However, the length of the shaft portion 23a is remarkably shorter than that of the shaft portion 21a, and the position where the engaging portion 24 protrudes to the vehicle body side of the second mounting portion 23 is adjusted to be approximately the same as that of the engaging portion 22. Has been. Thereby, as is clear from this figure, the lower portion of the bag 10 does not protrude sideways so much. That is, the side of the central portion of the rear wheel 3 is a portion where the vehicle body width is originally widened, but the bag 10 is supported substantially straight in the vertical direction.
[0020]
The step holder 5 extends rearward from the rear frame 4 and overlaps to the side of the rear wheel 3, and a pillion step 6 is supported on a stay 5a provided in this portion so as to be able to be tilted. Since the rear portion of the step holder 5 is provided with the second mounting portion 23, an extension 25 is further extended to the vicinity of the axle 8 of the rear wheel 3, and this extension 25 is formed on the outer side of the cushion unit 7 as can be seen in FIG. In order to escape from the rear wheel 3, it turns around to a position relatively close to the rear wheel 3 while curving slightly outward, and an extension 25 is provided here.
[0021]
Next, the operation of this reference example will be described. On the rear side surface of the vehicle body, at the position below the seat 1 and above the rear wheel 3, two first mounting portions 21 are provided on the seat rail 20 apart in the front-rear direction, and the rear wheel 3 below the first mounting portion 21 is provided. By providing the second attachment portion 23 on the extension portion 25 of the step holder 5 at a position overlapping the side surface of the first and second side portions, the first and second attachment portions 21, 21, 23 are arranged at each vertex of the triangle. (Figure 4).
[0022]
In this state, when the hooks 11, 11 and 12 of the bag 10 are engaged with the corresponding first and second mounting portions 21, 21, 23, respectively, the bag 10 is lowered as shown in FIGS. Is supported in a state of overlapping the side of the rear wheel 3. In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the amount of overhang of the first mounting portion 21 and the second mounting portion 23 with respect to the side of the vehicle body is made the same, so that the first mounting portion 21 and the second mounting portion 23 are supported straightly in the vertical direction.
[0023]
Therefore, the amount of lateral protrusion at the lower part of the bag 10 can be reduced, and the vehicle body width when the bag is attached can be made slim. In addition, since the second mounting portion 23 is provided using the step holder 5 positioned below the first mounting portion 21, the lateral protrusion amounts of the first and second mounting portions 21, 23 are minimized. Can be.
[0024]
In addition, when the bag 10 is removed, two first attachment portions 21 are exposed upward and one second attachment portion 23 is exposed downward, respectively. The mounting portion 21 is a pin-like member, although it protrudes long, and its protruding direction is substantially horizontal, so it is not so noticeable in a side view. In addition, the second mounting portion 23 has a slight protrusion amount and forms a part of the step holder 5 that is configured in advance as an appearance member, so that it is hardly conspicuous.
[0025]
Moreover, the mounting members are only the first mounting portion 21 and the second mounting portion 23, which can be made extremely small compared to the case where a relatively large frame-shaped carrier is provided as in the prior art. In particular, in the past, there has been a need to provide a stay for providing a portion corresponding to the second mounting portion 23 that supports the lower portion of the bag so that the side surface of the rear wheel 3 extends long in the front-rear direction. By using the step holder 5 as described above, such a member becomes unnecessary.
[0026]
Therefore, even if it is exposed when not in use, these mounting portions 21 and 23 are hardly conspicuous compared to the conventional case, so that the appearance is kept good and the vehicle body design process is facilitated. In addition, since the second mounting portion 23 overlaps the side of the rear wheel 3 in a side view and uses the step holder 5 which is a stationary member fixed to the vehicle body frame, the bag can be stably supported, and the existing Effective use of parts can be achieved.
[0027]
FIG. 5 relates to the first embodiment, in which the first mounting portion is of a retractable type. In this example, an opening 2a is provided in the rear cowl 2, and a lid 30 covers the lid 2 so as to be freely opened and closed. The lid 30 is rotatably attached to the inner surface of the rear cowl 2 near the opening 2a by a support shaft 32 by a hinge 31. On the other hand, the first mounting portion 33 provided on the inner side of the rear cowl 2 is provided so as to be able to enter and leave the rear cowl 2 through the opening 2a.
[0028]
The lid 30 is opened so that the engaging portion 34 of the first mounting portion 33 protrudes outward from the opening 2a (FIG. 5B), and the engaging portion 34 is inward of the rear cowl 2 from the opening 2a. When the lid 30 is closed by pulling in (to the right in the figure), the storage state when not in use (A in FIG. 5) is obtained. The hook structure on the bag side with respect to the first attachment portion 33 is the same as that of the upper hook 11 in the reference example . Further, the structure on the second mounting portion side is the same as that of the reference example , but may be a structure different from this.
[0029]
The first mounting portion 33 includes an engaging portion 34 having a large diameter at the tip with the shaft portion 33a. The engaging portion 34 has an annular groove 34a into which the opposing piece 11b (FIG. 2) of the upper hook 11 is fitted. Is formed. The shaft portion 33a is slidably supported by a guide tube 35 supported by the seat rail 20, and a return spring 36 is interposed between the guide tube 35 and a large-diameter spring receiving portion 33b formed at one end of the shaft portion 33a. Is provided to urge the shaft portion 33a to be pulled inward of the vehicle body.
[0030]
A lock 37 is provided in the vicinity of the guide tube 35 so as to abut against the spring receiving portion 33b to prevent the shaft portion 33a from being retracted. The lock 37 includes a hook-shaped contact portion 37a, a support shaft 37b, and a lever 37c. The lock 37 rotates between a locked position and an unlocked position by operating the lever 37c, and is normally not shown in the locked position. It is rotated by a mechanism and unlocked by rotating the lever 37c in the clockwise direction in the figure.
[0031]
At the time of use for attaching the bag, when the lid 30 is opened and the shaft portion 33a is pushed to the left in the drawing against the return spring 36 in FIG. A, the engaging portion 34 side protrudes outward from the opening 2a, and Since the abutting portion 37a of the lock 37 abuts on the spring receiving portion 33b and the shaft portion 33a is fixed in a state of being moved to the left in the figure (B in FIG. 5), the upper hook is attached to the engaging portion 31. 11 can be engaged.
[0032]
Further, when the lever 37c is rotated in the clockwise direction in the drawing from this use state to unlock the lock 37, the shaft portion 33a is pulled rightward in the drawing by the return spring 36 and the engaging portion 34 is opened. When the opening 2a is closed by the lid 30, the first mounting portion 33 is completely unappeared, so that the external appearance when not in use is maintained well. The 1st attaching part 33 with a large protrusion amount at the time of use can be provided. Moreover, the first mounting portion 33 can be moved in and out with a simple and reliable structure.
[0033]
FIG. 6 shows a second embodiment relating to a structure in which the first mounting portion is retractable like the first embodiment. In this example, a first mounting portion 41 having a protruding shape is provided integrally with the lid 40, and FIG. One end is pivotally attached to the tip of a stay 43 extending from the seat rail 20 by a support shaft 42, and when not in use, the lid 40 is closed as shown in A so that the first attachment portion 41 is not visible. .
[0034]
At the time of use, as shown in B, the lid 40 is opened and the first mounting portion 41 formed inside is locked to the upper hook 44 provided on the back surface 10a of the bag 10. As shown in the enlarged portion C, the upper hook 44 is a member having a substantially U-shaped cross section downward, and the first mounting portion 41 having a protruding shape is fitted into the engaging recess 45 opened downward. To engage. In this way, the storage structure for the first mounting portion can be further simplified. The structure on the second attachment portion side is the same as that of the second embodiment.
[0035]
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications and applications are possible within the same inventive principle. For example, the load that can be supported is not limited to a bag but can be various. However, since it can be supported vertically on the side of the vehicle body, it is wide enough that it takes too much width when supported on a sheet or carrier, and a relatively thin one is suitable.
[0036]
Further, the place where the second mounting portion is provided is not limited to the step holder, and any body component that overlaps the side surface of the rear wheel in a side view can be used. Furthermore, the attachment structure of the load such as a bag and the first and second attachment portions is not necessarily engaged, and various coupling means such as screwing can be employed. In this case, the engaging portion provided in the first or second mounting portion of each embodiment is changed to various structures corresponding to the coupling means. Furthermore, in each of the embodiments described above, the description of the lock between the bag and the first mounting portion or the like has been omitted, but such a lock can be provided arbitrarily.
