BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to the structure of a cover that covers both sides of the rear and lower portion of a motorcycle seat.

0002

[Prior Art] In motorcycles, there is a type of motorcycle that has a taillight located at the rear of the seat, and covers both sides of the lower part of the seat and around the taillight with a cover that is divided into multiple parts, giving it a distinctive design. Although known, conventionally,
When assembling the plurality of divided covers, screws and bolts are used.

0003

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, when a taillight is disposed at the rear of the seat and a cover that is divided into a plurality of parts covers both sides of the lower part of the seat and around the taillight, it is difficult to assemble the cover with screws and bolts. This increases the number of parts and assembly time, and the screws are exposed to the outside, resulting in poor design.

[0004] The present invention solves the above problems, and aims to provide a cover structure for a motorcycle that can reduce the number of parts and assembly time, and improve the design.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems] To this end, the motorcycle cover structure of the present invention provides left and right side covers 20 that cover both sides of the lower part of the seat 12 in a motorcycle in which a tail light 18 is disposed at the rear of the seat 12. , an upper cover 21 that covers the periphery of the taillight 18 , and a rear cover 22 that covers the periphery of the taillight 18 and connects the left and right side covers 20 , and a locking hole 25 is provided around the taillight 18 of the left and right side cover 20 . Alternatively, a locking hook 27 is provided, and a locking hook 29 or a locking hole 30 is provided in the upper cover 21 and the rear cover 22 in correspondence to the locking hole 25 or the locking hook 27. Note that the numbers added to the above configurations are for comparison with the drawings, and the configurations of the present invention are not limited thereby.

[0006]

[Operation] In the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG.
Attach the locking hook 27 on the side cover 20 side to the rear cover 22.
The side cover 20 is fixed by being locked into the locking hole 30 on the side.
The locking hook 29 on the upper cover 21 side is inserted and locked into the side locking hole 25 and fixed.

An engine 13 is mounted and fixed between the main frame 3 and the rear arm bracket 5, and exhaust pipes 14 and 15 extend rearward from the engine 13. A rear shock 16 is disposed between the rear arm 9 and the seat rail 4, and the rear shock 16 is arranged between the rear arm 9 and the seat rail 4.
A rear fender 19 is installed to prevent mud, etc. from scattering.
Furthermore, both sides of the lower part of the seat 12 and the tail light 18
A cover 17 is attached to cover the surrounding area.

1 to 6 show one embodiment of the cover structure for a motorcycle according to the present invention, FIG. 1 is a perspective view for explaining an assembly method, FIG. 2 is a side view showing the rear part of the motorcycle,
3 is a plan view of FIG. 2, FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A in FIG. 2 in the direction of the arrow, FIG. 5 is a plan view taken from direction B in FIG. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line C-C in the direction of the arrow.

The cover 17 explained in FIG. 7 is similar to that shown in FIGS.
As shown in FIG.
, and a rear cover 22 that covers the bottom surface of the tail light 18 and is assembled to connect the rear parts of the left and right side covers 20 .The side cover 20 includes a spring nut 23 , Bolt hole 24, locking hole 25, locking claw 26, locking hook 27
Further, bolt holes 28 are provided on both front sides of the upper cover 21, and locking hooks 29 are integrally formed inside the upper cover 21. Furthermore, locking holes 30 are provided on both sides of the rear cover 22. and a flange 32 having a spring nut 31 are integrally formed. In addition, in FIG. 2, the tail light 18 and the upper cover 21 are smooth and form a continuous curved surface.

The assembly of the cover 17 having the above structure will be explained. First, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the rear cover 22 is assembled to the rear parts of the left and right side covers 20. Attach the locking hook 27 on the side cover 20 side to the rear cover 2.
The bolt 39 (FIG. 2) is screwed into the spring nut 31 from the bottom of the side cover 20 to fix it. The locking pawl 26 engages with the flange 32 to prevent vertical and vertical displacement.

Next, the rear cover 22 is assembled and the side cover 20 is fixed to the seat rail 4. As shown in FIG. 4, a locking hook 33 is provided inside the front of the side cover 20.
is integrally formed and is press-fitted into a hole formed in the seat rail 4 via a rubber damper 34, and the rear upper part of the side cover 20 is connected to the seat rail 4 by a bolt 35.
As shown in FIG.
A notch 36 is formed at the rear lower part of the rubber damper 37.
It is fixed to the seat rail 4 via rivets 38.

Next, the upper cover 21 is assembled to the side cover 20. Insert and lock the locking hook 29 on the upper cover 21 side into the locking hole 25 on the side cover 20 side, and screw the bolt 40 into the spring nut 23 on the side cover 20 side and the bolt hole 28 on the upper cover 21 side. and fix it. As shown in FIG. 6, a rubber damper 41 is adhered to the locking hook 29, and the locking hook 29 is locked to the side cover 20 via the rubber damper 41.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, but can be modified in various ways.

For example, the locking hooks 27, 29 and the locking holes 25, 30 may be provided on opposite covers.

[0016]

As explained above, according to the present invention, when a taillight is disposed at the rear of a seat and a cover that is divided into a plurality of parts covers both sides of the lower part of the seat and the periphery of the taillight, it is possible to The number of parts and assembly time can be reduced, and the design quality can be improved.
