Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a motorcycle, and more particularly to a motorcycle having a rider seat and a tandem seat, which are provided independently of each other.

[Conventional technology]

The motorcycle has a rider seat on which the driver sits,
There is one in which a tandem seat on which a passenger sits is provided independently of each other. FIG. 1 shows a motorcycle A having the above-mentioned configuration, and a tandem seat C is disposed above a rear portion of a rider seat B. Also, this motorcycle A
In the above, the tandem seat B is detachably attached to the vehicle body D, and the tool storage recess E is provided in the lower region of the tandem seat B. That is, the tandem sheet C also serves as a lid for the tool storage recess E,
By operating the seat lock key F, the seat lock key F is fixed to or removed from the vehicle body D.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

By the way, when the vehicle body is to be serviced or inspected by using the tools in the tool storage recess E, the tandem seat C needs to be removed from the vehicle body D. At this time, when the removed tandem sheet C is placed on the ground or floor, the sheet C becomes dirty. Also, to prevent the tandem seat C that was removed from getting dirty,
When placed on the tank or on the tank G, there is a problem that the tandem sheet C is damaged when it is dropped from the tank G or the like.

In view of the above situation, an object of the present invention is to provide a motorcycle capable of preventing the tandem seat from being soiled and damaged when it is detached from the vehicle body.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

Therefore, in the present invention, a flexible cord-like member is linked to a flexible vehicle body with a tandem seat, and when the tandem seat is fixed to the vehicle body, the cord-like member is exposed to the outside. In such a mode, both ends of the cord-like member are fixed to the tandem seat and the vehicle body, respectively.

[Action]

According to the above configuration, since the tandem seat has the cord-shaped member linked to the flexible vehicle body, the tandem seat does not accidentally drop from the vehicle body when the tandem seat is removed from the vehicle body. It is possible to appropriately select the position of the tandem seat with respect to the vehicle body. Further, according to the configuration described above, the cord-shaped member is prevented from being exposed to the outside when the tandem seat is fixed to the vehicle body, that is, when the tandem seat is in the normal position.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings illustrating an embodiment.

1 and 2 show a motorcycle 1 according to the present invention.
It shows the main part of. The appearance of the motorcycle 1 is no different from that of the motorcycle A shown in FIG.

The motorcycle 1 has a rider seat 2 and a tandem seat 3, which are separate bodies, and the rider seat 2 is fixed to a vehicle body frame 5 that constitutes a vehicle body 4.

On the other hand, on the back surface 3a of the tandem sheet 3, one end portions 6a, 6a of the covered wires 6, 6 as flexible cord-shaped members are bolted, and the other ends of the covered wires 6, 6 are fixed. Part 6b,
6b are bolted to the bracket 5a of the vehicle body frame 5, respectively. That is, the tandem seat 3 is
It is moored to the vehicle body frame 5 via the covered wires 6,6.

A lock mechanism 5b is provided on the top of the bracket 5a, and the lock mechanism 5b fixes the tandem seat 3 to the vehicle body frame 5 by operating the lock key 7 as shown by a chain line in FIG. It is one.

The body frame 5 is covered by a rear cowl 8, and the rear cowl 8 further includes a rider seat 2
A tool storage recess 8a is provided in the rear of the. This recess 8a
Is closed by fixing the tandem seat 3 to the vehicle body frame 5. When the tandem seat 3 is fixed to the body frame 5, that is, when the tandem seat 3 is in the normal position, one end 6a is fixed to the tandem seat 3 and the other end 6b is fixed to the body frame 5 as described above. The covered wire 6 present is the tandem sheet 3
It will be covered with the rear cowl 8 and will not be exposed to the outside carelessly.

Now, the seat lock key 7 is operated to release the lock mechanism 5b, the engagement between the vehicle body frame 5 and the tandem seat 3 is released, and the tandem seat 3 is removed from the vehicle body frame 5 to be stored in the tool storage recess 8a. You can take out the used tool and use it. At this time, the tandem seat 3 may be placed on the rider seat 2 as shown in FIG. 2, for example. Here, as mentioned above,
Since the tandem seat 3 is linked to the vehicle body frame 5 via the covered wire 6, even if the tandem seat 3 slides down from the rider seat 2, the tandem seat 3 is suspended by the covered wire 6. , Never fall to the ground. Further, when the tandem seat 3 is detached from the vehicle body frame 5, for example, when work is performed on the left side of the vehicle body near the rider seat 2, the tandem seat 3 is not placed on the rider seat 2 and the covered wire 6 is removed. Do not place the tandem seat 3 above the rider seat 2 and on the left side of the vehicle body by suspending it on the right side of the flexible vehicle body, in other words, place the tandem seat removed from the vehicle body at a location that does not interfere with various operations. By letting
The efficiency of the above-mentioned various operations can be improved.

The length of the covered wire is of course set so that the tandem seat can be freely moved with respect to the vehicle body frame and that the tandem seat does not reach the ground surface in the suspended state. Is. Also,
In this example, the end portion of the covered wire is anchored to the vehicle body frame, but the covered wire may be anchored to other parts constituting the vehicle body, such as the rear cowl.

[Effect of device]

As described above in detail, in the motorcycle according to the present invention,
Since the tandem seat is linked to the vehicle body via the flexible cord-like member, even if the tandem seat is removed from the vehicle body, the tandem seat does not drop from the vehicle body, and therefore the tandem seat is not damaged. And damage can be prevented in advance.

Further, in the present invention, since the body of the vehicle and the tandem seat are linked to each other via the cord-shaped member, the tandem seat removed from the body of the vehicle is placed at a position where it does not interfere with various operations, thereby improving the efficiency of the various operations. It becomes possible.

Further, according to the present invention, both ends of the cord-like member are fixed to the tandem seat and the body of the vehicle body in such a manner that the cord-like member is not exposed to the outside when the tandem seat is fixed to the vehicle body. When the seat is in the normal position, the cord-like member is not exposed to the outside, so that the appearance of the motorcycle is not carelessly spoiled.
