Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a footrest mounting device for a motorcycle.

[Conventional technology and its problems]

Motorcycles have footrests that project laterally to the lower left and right of the frame so that a rider who sits astride the upper seat can put his foot on the footrest. Therefore, the position of the footrest is limited from the riding position in relation to the seat position. Generally, bosses are provided on the lower left and right sides of the center of the frame, and a bracket to which a footrest is attached is fastened and attached. See, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-168987 and Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 60-118582. By the way, since the rider operates the brake petals and the change petals with the toes of the foot placed on the footrest, the relative positions of these and the footrest must also be set appropriately. A main stand and side stand are also attached to the lower part of the frame. For this reason, there is no space in the place, and there is a disadvantage that the bracket is enlarged to maintain the position of the footrest, which makes the weight heavy and the assembly is troublesome.

[Purpose of device]

This device is designed to accommodate a battery by fastening and connecting a battery holder to the front side of the rear wheel on the rear side of the left and right center member of the frame, and using the side surface of the battery holder to provide a boss, An object of the present invention is to provide a motorcycle footrest mounting device that allows the brackets to be fastened to allow a space under the frame to have a space and to increase the degree of freedom in layout and to arrange the motorcycle properly.

[Constitution of device]

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.

1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention. The front part of the battery holder 3 is fastened and connected to the lower rear side of the left and right central members 2 of the frame 1 by bolts. This place is a space that contacts the front side of the rear wheel 4, and the battery 5 is housed in the battery holder 3 using this space. The base of the main stand 6 is pivotally attached to the lower front portion of the battery holder 3. Two bosses 7 are welded to the battery holder 3 on the left and right side surfaces. Then, attach the bracket 8 to the two bosses 7 by bolts 9
Fasten with. An elastic bushing 10 is inserted in the hole of the bracket 8 and is floating. The bracket 8 has
The base of the footrest 11 is pivotally attached. Footrest 11
The lower side of the bracket 8 is connected to the muffler 13 through the exhaust pipe 12.

FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of the present invention. In this case, one boss 7 is provided on the side surface of the battery holder 3 and the other boss 7 is laterally projected and welded to the left and right central members 2, and the two bosses 7 are attached to the footrest 11. The bracket 8 is fastened with bolts 9. Others are the same as those shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.

[Function of device]

The boss 7 that fastens the bracket 8 of the footrest 11,
Since it is provided on the battery holder 3 which is connected to the lower rear side of the central member 2 of the frame 1, the lower part of the frame 1 can be relaxed, the degree of freedom of the mounting place can be expanded, and the bracket 8 can be installed at an appropriate place without being enlarged. Can be installed. Also, the elastic bush 10 can be inserted into the bracket 8 to allow it to float, and vibration transmitted to the foot can be reduced. In addition, the bracket 8 is mostly inside the exhaust pipe 12 so that it is difficult to see and the appearance can be improved. Also, as in the other embodiment, one of the bosses 7 is provided on the battery holder 3 and the other boss 7 is provided on the central member 2, so that the bracket 8 connects the central member 2 to the battery holder 3. The rigidity of can be increased.

[Effect of device]

As described above, according to the present invention, the battery holder is connected to the rear side of the left and right center members of the frame to accommodate the battery, and the boss is provided on the side surface of the battery holder, and the footrest bracket is attached to the boss. Since it is fastened, a battery holder can be installed in the space on the front side of the rear wheel to accommodate the battery, and by using the side of the battery holder to provide a boss, the footrest bracket can be fastened and the bottom of the frame can be fastened. The battery holder can be used to expand the space-free area to properly position the footrest layout. Further, the bracket has a space in which an elastic bush can be inserted, and the vibration damping effect is enhanced. Further, the bracket has a good appearance because the portion through which the exhaust pipe passes is hard to see on the outside.
