Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a motorcycle seat, and particularly to a motorcycle seat using a blow-molded skin.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, in a motorcycle seat using a blow-molded skin, especially a seat for a road racer, a blow-molded skin 41 is used, as shown in FIG.
A mounting plate 42 is inserted inside, and this plate 42 and a pin 43, which is a locking tool, are joined by welding, and the pin 43 is attached to a side cover, seat bottom, etc. (hereinafter referred to as "side cover, etc."). ) 44, and then the pin 43 was attached by locking it with a clip 45 or the like.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] In the above-mentioned conventional technology, a protrusion such as a pin 43 is passed through a side cover or the like 44 from inside a predetermined portion of the seat bottom and is fixed with a clip or the like 45. may hit the electrical equipment under the seat. This possibility is particularly high in motorcycles for road racers, as there is little space for seating. Further, the above-mentioned conventional technology has the problem that there are many parts to be installed and a large number of man-hours are required for assembling the side cover etc. 44.

The present invention was made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and its purpose is to:
To provide a motorcycle seat using a blow-molded skin, in which a mounting member can be formed integrally with a cushion material without exposing any protrusions at the bottom of the seat, and the number of parts is reduced and assembly workability is improved. With the goal.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the motorcycle seat according to the present invention includes a cushion material and a mounting plate disposed within the blow-molded skin, and the plate and the side cover are disposed within the blow-molded skin. In the motorcycle seat concluded with the above-mentioned, the mounting plate has a shape that follows the bottom of the skin, and a part of the plate is cut while being connected to the plate to extend outside the bottom of the skin. A fastening part is formed in which a mounting hole is formed in the extending part, and a step part is formed in the side cover etc., which is lower than other surfaces of the side cover etc. at a fastening position with the connecting part, and the step part is lower than the other surface of the side cover etc. The technical solution is that a protrusion is formed on the part so that the fastening part is bent and engaged with the mounting hole, and the protrusion does not protrude from other surfaces of the side cover or the like after mounting.

[Function] The present invention is constructed as described above, and the mounting plate has a shape that follows the bottom of the skin, and a part of the plate is cut while being connected to the plate to attach to the bottom of the skin. A fastening part is formed that extends outward and has a mounting hole formed in the extending part, and the side cover etc. has a step part lower than other surfaces of the side cover etc. at the fastening position with the connecting part. The step part is formed with a protrusion that engages with the mounting hole by bending the fastening part and does not protrude from other surfaces of the side cover etc. after installation, so that the sheet can be attached to the lower part of the side cover etc. There is no need to expose any protrusions for assembly, and there is no chance of damaging electrical components placed at the bottom of the side cover, etc. Moreover, the step part is formed with a protrusion that engages with the mounting hole by bending the fastening part and does not protrude from other surfaces such as the side cover after installation, reducing the number of parts and manufacturing steps. Work efficiency can be improved. Note that since the fastening portion is formed by cutting the plate, the cut portion is filled with a resin (foaming material) such as urethane, and the attachment member can be formed integrally with the cushion material.

[Examples] Examples of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. However, the components and other members and arrangements described or illustrated in the following description are not intended to limit the present invention, but are merely illustrative examples, and may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It is something that can be done.

In FIG. 1, the motorcycle seat S of this example
is formed by integral foam molding, with a mounting plate 2 disposed within a blow-molded skin 1 and filled with a foam material 3 to serve as a cushion material (urethane foam in this example). The mounting plate 2 is provided to be fastened to a side cover 4 or the like.

As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1D, the mounting plate 2 of this example is comprised of two plate-like bodies 2a, 2 shaped along the bottom 1a of the blow-molded skin 1.
b are crossed at approximately the center of the sheet S and joined by welding or the like. This mounting plate 2
A cut is made with a part of the predetermined part connected to the mounting plate 2, and the fastening part 2c is formed by bending it to the lower part (or inside) of the mounting plate 2 and extending it outside the skin bottom 1a. has been done.

The fastening portions 2c in this example are formed at two locations on the left and right sides of the mounting plate 2a, and at three locations on the mounting plate 2b. Since the mounting plate 2 is cut in this way and this part is used as the fastening part 2c, a hole 2e is formed in the mounting plate 2, and when the mounting plate 2 is inserted into the skin 1 and foamed integrally. The foam material such as urethane also penetrates into the holes 2e, so that the mounting plate 2 and the cushion material 3 can be integrated. Note that the bent fastening portion 2c of this example is formed with a hole 2d that engages with a projection 4d, which will be described later.

On the other hand, the side cover etc. having the desired shape 4
A connecting hole 4a is formed at a location that aligns with the fastening portion 2c of the mounting plate 2, and this connecting hole 4a
It is sized to fit with the and connecting hole 4
The area including a is formed in a step (recess) 25 that is lower than the other surface of the side cover 4, and this step 25
A protrusion 4b that protrudes outward is formed on the protrusion 4b.
The protrusion 4b is arranged to fit into the hole 2d of the fastening portion 2c. That is, the connecting hole 4a and the protrusion 4b formed in the side cover etc. 4 are formed at a stepped portion (recess) 25 lower than the other surface of the side cover etc. 4, and when each fastening portion 2c is bent. , each fastening portion 2c is connected to a side cover etc. 4.
It is formed to be approximately the same as the other surfaces of the. By making the fastening part flat in this way,
The protrusion in this area will completely disappear.

Sheet S consisting of the above configuration is used as a side cover etc. 4
To attach the fastening part 2c to the side cover etc.
Then, the fastening portion 2c is bent and the hole 2d is fitted into the protrusion 4b of the side cover 4, thereby making the connection.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the side cover 4 is made of thermoplastic resin or the like, and the projection 4b is heat caulked. By doing so, the sheet S can be attached to the side cover 4 more reliably.

[Effects of the invention] The present invention is configured as described above, and the fastening portion of the mounting plate is bent at the low stepped portion formed on the side cover, etc., and is fastened to the side cover, etc., so that the fastening portion does not protrude beyond the surface of the side cover or the like, there are no protrusions, and there is no interference with anything disposed inside the side cover or the like. In addition, since the protrusion formed on the stepped part engages with the hole in the fastening part, there is no need to use pins, clips, etc., and the number of parts can be reduced, reducing the number of steps and improving work efficiency. .
