Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a rear box for a motorcycle.

(Prior Art) In a scooter type motorcycle, a passenger seat is placed on a rear cover behind the floor and above the rear wheels.

(Problem that the invention aims to solve) Attempts have been made to use the inside of the rear cover as a rear box for storing things, but since the inside of the rear cover is a large space, the small items stored therein may move around while the vehicle is running and cause the vehicle to wobble. Furthermore, if clothes are stored together with cleaning rags and tools, the clothes tend to get dirty.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to use a motorcycle in which a passenger seat is placed on the rear cover as storage space for storing small items and cleaning cloths and tools that are relatively easily soiled. To provide a rear box which can be stored separately from stored items and can prevent small items from moving and other stored items from getting dirty.

(Means for solving the problem) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a rear cover 6
A bottom plate 8 is provided to form a rear box 11 for storing things inside, and a downwardly recessed step 9 is formed in the front part of the bottom plate 8, and an inner lid 12 is provided to allow the recessed step 9 to be opened and closed. .

(Function) Since the front part of the bottom plate 8 is outside the rocking trajectory of the power unit 21, etc., a downwardly recessed step 9 can be provided, and small items and dirty items can be stored in this recessed step 9.
By closing the inner lid 12, movement of small items and dirty items can be prevented, and since dirty items and other stored items can be stored separately, other stored items will not be soiled.

(Example) Examples will be described below based on the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a schematic side view of a scooter type motorcycle, and Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the - line.A leg shield 3 is integrally formed in the front part of a floor 1, and a tunnel part 2 is formed in the floor 1. A fuel tank 4 is installed in this tunnel portion 2, and a battery 5 is housed in front of the fuel tank 4. Also floor 1
A box-shaped rear cover 6 is provided at the rear of the vehicle, and the lower part of the rear cover 6 is closed with a bottom plate 8.
An opening 7 covering almost the entire surface is formed on the upper surface of the rear cover 6, and a passenger seat 15 is attached to a front hinge 16 on the opening 7 so as to be openable and closable.

On the other hand, a rear wheel 23 is supported at the rear of a power unit 21 that integrates an engine and a transmission, and this power unit 21 is constructed to be small enough to fit approximately within the side projection plane of the rear wheel 23.
A bracket 24 is protruded from the front lower part of the power unit 21, and a pair of left and right links 25, 25 are pivotally attached to the upper part of the bracket 24, and a shock absorber 27 is pivotally attached to the lower part of the bracket 24. Also, a bracket 29 is provided protruding from the rear lower part of the floor 1.
A pipe 26 installed between the front parts of the links 25 and 25 is attached to the upper part of the link 9, and a buffer 27 is pivotally attached to the lower part of the pipe 26.

The bottom plate 8 of the rear cover 6 is disposed upward to allow the power unit 21 and the rear wheels 23 to swing, and the inside of the rear cover 6 above the bottom plate 8 forms a rear box 11 for storing things. Desired items can be stored in the rear box 11.

In the above process, a downwardly recessed stepped portion 9 is formed in the front portion of the bottom plate 8 of the rear cover 6. This recessed step portion 9 is located forward of the swing locus of the power unit 21.

Furthermore, an inner lid 12 shields the recessed step 9 from above.
Provided so that it can be opened and closed freely. That is, the inner lid 12 is pivotally attached to the upper part of the rear wall 91 of the recessed step part 9 by the left and right hinges 13, 13 so that the rear edge thereof can be raised and lowered, and the front edge of the inner lid 12 is connected to the front wall of the recessed step part 9. 92.

By arranging auxiliary equipment such as the fuel tank 4 and battery 5 on the floor 1 side, the rear cover 6
The inside can be used as the rear box 11 for storing things, and the power unit 21 is also small enough to fit within the side projection plane of the rear wheel 23, so the rear box 11 can take up a large space.

Since the front part of the bottom plate 8 of the rear cover 6 is located forward of the rocking locus of the power unit 21, especially its cylinder part 22, a recessed step 9 can be formed in this part. By storing small items and dirty items in the compartment 9 and closing them with the inner lid 12, it is possible to prevent the small items from moving while driving, and since dirty items can be stored separately from other stored items, it is possible to store small items and other items. No more soiling of stored items. Further, as shown in FIG. 1, by tilting the inner lid 12 backward to open the recessed step 9 and storing a portion of the helmet 31 in the recessed step 9, it also helps to prevent the helmet 31 from shaking. Become something.

Incidentally, since the rear cover 6 only bears the weight of the occupant, the rigidity of the monokotsuk type rear cover 6 can maintain sufficient strength as required.

(Effects of the invention) As described above, according to the invention, in a scooter type motorcycle, a bottom plate is provided on the rear cover to form a rear box for storing things, and a downwardly recessed step is formed in the front part of the bottom plate. However, because this concave step is equipped with an inner lid that can be opened and closed, small items and dirty items can be stored in the recessed step, and by closing the inner lid, small items can be prevented from moving, and the dirty items can be stored in other places. Since it can be stored separately from other items, it also prevents other items from getting dirty.
