Abstract

PURPOSE:To open a cap body in two steps and prevent the cap body from being carelessly fully opened at once and obstructing driving by mounting the cap body on the opening of a container box through a hinge in such a manner as to be capable of opening and closing, and mounting a two-step cam on one side of the hinge. CONSTITUTION:A large-sized container box 3 capable of receiving a helmet is mounted on the front upper part of a frame 1 in a motorcycle and in the front of a seat 2. An opening 5 for taking in and out an article is formed on the upper part of the container box 3, and a cap body 6 is fitted to the opening 5. In this case, a hinge 7 is mounted on the front end inner side of the cap body 6, and the hinge 7 is pivotally fixed to a bracket 8 mounted on the front part of the container box 6 by a support shaft 9. A two-step cam 10 is mounted on one side of the hinge 7 to rotate with the hinge. Hence, the cap body 6 is opened in two steps, whereby the cap body 6 is prevented from being carelessly fully opened at once, and also no opening and closing handle is required, resulting in the smoothed surface of the cap body 6.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] This invention relates to a storage device for a large motorcycle capable of accommodating helmets and the like.

(Prior art) On a motorcycle, there is a
Some have a large storage box that can conveniently accommodate items such as helmets. The storage box has an opening on the top surface and is covered with a lid, and since the seat is located on the rear side, the lid is hinged at the front so that it can be opened when excavating soil.

For example, see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 64-22686.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

Since the lid of the storage box is hinged at the front, if the lid is inadvertently unlocked and opened while the vehicle is running, it will interfere with driving. Further, since the handle that opens on the lid is provided protrudingly, there is an inconvenience that the upper surface of the lid cannot be made smooth.

In view of these points, this invention prevents the lid from being fully opened all at once, and when the lock is released, it stops at a slightly opened position, so there is no problem even if the lid is opened accidentally, and there is no need for a handle. The purpose is to obtain a storage device for a motorcycle.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the motorcycle storage device of the present invention has a storage box attached to the front side of the seat at the front upper part of the frame, an opening provided on the top surface of the storage box, and a lid that can be opened and closed with a hinge at the front end of the opening. A two-stage cam is attached to one side of the hinge, and a stopper arm is brought into elastic contact with the two-stage cam so that the lid opens in two stages.

[Effect]

When the lid is unlocked, the lid opens to a slightly open position so that the stopper arm hits the first stage of the two-stage cam.
It is held by a stopper arm.

In this state, you can now place your hand on the edge of the lid, and when you open the lid against the elasticity of the stopper arm, the lid will open completely so that the stopper arm touches the second stage of the two-stage cam. It can be opened until it opens. Even if the lid is accidentally unlocked, it will stop at the slightly open position of the step and will not fully open, so it will not interfere with driving. In addition, when the lid is unlocked, it will be in the slightly open position of the first stage, and it can be opened by placing your hand on the edge of the lid, so there is no need to provide a handle on the lid, and the surface of the lid can be easily opened. Can be made smooth.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

A storage box 3 is attached to the front side of the seat 2 at the front upper part of the frame 1. Storage box 3 is helmet 4
It is large enough to accommodate things such as.

An opening 5 for taking items in and out is provided on the top surface of the storage box 3, and a lid 6 is attached to the opening 5. A hinge 7 is attached to the inside of the front end of the lid 6, and the hinge 7 is rotatably attached to a bracket 8 provided at the front of the storage box 3 with a support shaft 9, so that the lid 6 can be opened forward. It can be so. A two-stage cam 10 having negative and second ridges is attached to one side of the hinge 7 so as to rotate together with the hinge 7. On the other hand, the bracket 8 is provided with a stopper arm 12 that comes into elastic contact with the two-stage cam 10 by a spring 11. Locking pins 13 are protrudingly provided on both sides of the lid 6, and are latched onto a lock 14 which is opened and closed with a key. Note that the fuel tank 15 is arranged below the seat 2.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, since this invention is configured as described above, when the lock that closes the lid is released, the lid can be opened slightly until the stopper arm hits the first stage of the two-stage cam. . Then, when you put your hand on the edge of the lid and open the lid against the elasticity of the stopper arm, the stopper arm enters the second stage of the two-stage cam, allowing you to fully open the lid. . As a result, even if the lock is inadvertently released and the lid is opened, it will only open slightly and stop, and will not open fully, which would impede driving. Further, since the lid can be opened by placing the hand in a slightly open state, there is no need to provide a handle on the top surface, and the surface of the lid can be made smooth. Also, when the lid is fully open, the stopper arm enters the second stage of the two-stage cam, so the fully open position can be maintained.
It does not close inadvertently, making it more convenient to use.

Side view showing, Figure 3 shows the lid fully open. Figure 4 is a bottom view of the hinge part. Figure 5 is a perspective view; Figure 6 is an overall side view; It is.
