Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention relates to a mounting structure that can be used in the field of direction indicator lights for two-wheeled vehicles.

[Prior Art] A direction indicator light for a two-wheeled vehicle is usually attached to a vehicle body via a stay. In this case, the tip of the stay fits into the mounting part formed on the lamp base of the direction indicator light and is fixed from the side with a screw, but since the screw is visible from the outside, it not only looks unsightly but also rusts. There were drawbacks such as the generation of black stains and the unstable installation condition. In addition, the base of the stay is inserted into the mounting part of the car body and fixed by tightening a nut into the threaded part formed at the end of the stay. The cross-sectional shape had to be processed into a non-circular shape, and the shape of the vehicle body mounting hole also had to be made non-circular to match this shape. For this reason, processing is time-consuming and causes high costs.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems. The present invention aims to provide a mounting structure for a direction indicator light for a two-wheeled vehicle that does not require processing.

[Means for solving the problem] The technical means of the present invention to solve such problems is to attach one end of the pipe stay to the lamp base, and insert the other end into the mounting part of the vehicle body and tighten the nut. In the mounting structure of a direction indicator light for a two-wheeled vehicle, a flange-like plate having a tongue piece formed therein is fixed to the pipe stay, this plate is fixed to the light body base with a screw, and the vehicle body is mounted to the plate. The gist is that a rubber cushion interposed between the screw head and the screw head is fitted to hide the screw head, and the tongue piece is fitted and locked into a notch hole formed in the vehicle body mounting part.

[Example] Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically explained with reference to the illustrated example. Reference numeral 1 denotes a lamp base made of aluminum die-casting or the like, and a stay attachment part 1 is attached to the side of the lamp base.
a is formed, and screw holes 1b and positioning protrusions 1c are formed at key locations. 2 is a hollow metal pipe stay, and the tip thereof has the projection 1c.
A notch 2a that engages with is formed, and a threaded portion 2b is formed at the base (rear end). Further, a flange-like plate 3 is fixed to the tip of the pipe stay 2, tongue pieces 3a are formed at key points on the edge of the plate 3, and a through hole 3b is provided. When the tip of the pipe stay 2 with the plate is inserted into the mounting portion 1a of the lamp base 1 and the notch 2a is engaged with the positioning protrusion 1c, the through hole 2
b and the screw hole 1b match, and can be fixed by screwing the screw 4 into the screw hole 1b and tightening it. Reference numeral 5 designates a rubber cushion that is fitted into the mounting portion 6a of the vehicle body 6, and has a hole 5a for inserting the stay, and a recess 5b on the tip surface.
is formed. Furthermore, a positioning and rotation-stopping hole 6b that engages with the tongue piece 3a of the plate 3 is formed in a main part of the vehicle body 6.

The pipe stay 2 to which the plate 3 is fixed is
When the tongue piece 3a is inserted into the hole 5a of the rubber cushion 5 by inserting it into the hole 6b of the vehicle body 6, the threaded portion 2b protrudes from the rubber cushion, and a washer 7 is attached to the threaded portion 2b.
It can be fixed by fitting and tightening the nut 8. At this time, the rubber cushion 5 is brought into close contact with the plate, and the head of the screw 4 is hidden within the recess 5b. In the figure, 9 is a cord grommet fitted to the lamp base 1, through which the lead wire 10 can be inserted and pulled out to the pipe stay 2 side.

FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of this invention, in which a positioning protrusion 11a provided on the lamp base 11 side is formed at the open end of the mounting portion 11b and fixed to the pipe stay 12. Plate 13
This embodiment is different from the embodiment described above in that a hole 13a is provided to engage with the protrusion 11a.

[Effects of the invention] As explained above, the invention has a structure in which the screw that fixes the tip of the pipe stay to the lamp base is hidden by the rubber cushion, so the head of the screw is not exposed to the outside. In addition to improving the appearance, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of rust, and the installed state can be firmly maintained. In addition, by attaching a plate to the pipe stay and fitting the tongue piece formed on this plate into the hole in the vehicle body, the pipe stay can be positioned and prevented from rotating, so the end of the pipe stay can be fixed. This eliminates the need for non-circular machining of the cross section of the part and the shape of the vehicle body mounting hole, resulting in cost reduction.
Furthermore, according to the present invention, since the rubber cushion is interposed in the mounting part of the car body, it has the effect of absorbing vibrations, the tip of the pipe stay can be mounted with only one screw, and it has excellent sealing properties. It has a great effect.
