Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a saddle cover for transportation of two-wheeled vehicles, such as racing motorcycles, which do not have a stand.

Racing motorcycles are usually not equipped with a stand because they are made to be as lightweight as possible by removing unnecessary items.

Conventionally, when transporting two-wheeled vehicles such as racing motorcycles without such stands by train or truck, multiple motorcycles to be transported are loaded and lined up in a row, and the legs are spread out on the left and right. Place the horse-shaped support base under the footrest, etc., and in this state, place a holding bar such as a square lumber horizontally on the saddle of each two-wheeled vehicle. The two-wheeled vehicle was fixed by being held down by the bar by tightening it in the direction of the floor with a screw shaft or the like that was erected on the floor and could pass through the bar.

As a result, there is a dented area on the saddle seat with pressure marks from the bar.
The bite remains do not recover easily, and users such as racers complain that
There were complaints that the seats were uncomfortable.

Also, since multiple motorcycles are held down and fixed using a single bar, if there is a difference in the height of the individual saddles of the two-wheeled vehicles, the hold of the lower saddles by the bar will be weaker, resulting in poor stability. there were.

Furthermore, since the bars simply hold down the saddle from above, vibrations and shocks during transport can cause the motorcycle to shift forward, backward, left or right, and especially for bikes with low saddle heights, the pressure may be weak and the bike may fall sideways. There was a risk of becoming

Furthermore, a two-wheeled vehicle having a stand leg attached only to one side of the vehicle body also has the same drawbacks as described above.

The present invention has been devised to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and embodiments thereof will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a cover body made of hard or semi-hard synthetic resin foam such as polystyrene, which is one size larger than the saddle of a two-wheeled vehicle a such as a racing motorcycle, and has a fitting recess 2 on the lower surface corresponding to the shape of the saddle. is formed and provided so as to be able to be fitted onto the saddle.

Further, on the upper surface of the cover main body 1, there is a recess 3 passing in the horizontal direction.
is provided so that a bar material such as a square material for holding down can be inserted.

In the embodiment shown, the recess 3 is square in shape, so that it is suitable for the insertion of a square bar.

It is desirable that at least the surface of the recess 3 of the cover main body 1 is covered with glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) 4.

5 is a support member for the rod installed in the recess 3;
It is provided so as to be vertically adjustable by a screwing structure as described below or other suitable means.

In the case of the illustrated embodiment, a board 8 has a screw shaft 6 such as a bolt protruding from the center of the lower surface of a plate-shaped support member 5, and an internal thread I corresponding to the screw shaft 6 at the center. is attached to the bottom of the recess 3 with screws 9, etc., and the screw shaft 6 on the receiving member 5 side is screwed into the internal threaded portion 7 of the board 8, so that the receiving member 5 can be adjusted up and down by the screw structure. It is configured like this.

The internal thread I of the board 8 in the above embodiment may be formed by forming an internal thread only on the board 8. As shown in the figure, an internal thread member 10 such as a nut is fixed to the bottom surface of the board 8 to form an internal thread. It is preferable to form the portion I because the supporting state of the receiving member 5 can be stabilized.

In addition, in order to attach the board 8 to the bottom of the recess 3, the reinforced plastic 4 covered with foam is sandwiched between the board 8 and the auxiliary plate 11 and screwed together. You can also screw it directly.

Furthermore, it is preferable that the upper surface of the receiving member 5 on which the bar rest is formed into a rough surface with fine irregularities to increase the frictional resistance with the bar member.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a band for fixing the handle C of the two-wheeled vehicle a when the saddle cover of the present invention is fitted on the saddle, and reference numeral 13 denotes a band for fixing the handle C of the two-wheeled vehicle a when the saddle cover of the present invention is fitted on the saddle. These are bands for fixing the stand, and at the tips of these bands 12 and 13 there are engaging tools 14' and 15' that are paired with the engaging tools 14 and 15 attached to the proper positions of the cover body 1. installed.

Reference numeral 20 denotes an upright stand used for motorcycles with no stand attached or with stand legs attached only on one side. Support shafts 22 and 22 are erected on both sides of the U-shaped frame 21 with the sides cut out,
Approximately U-shaped bearing portions 23.23 capable of supporting both ends of the axle e of the rear wheel d of the two-wheeled vehicle a are provided at the upper ends of both of these support shafts 22.22, respectively. The portion 23.23 is provided in a sideways shape with the front side open.

When transporting a two-wheeled vehicle, it is preferable to use the above-mentioned upright stand 20 in conjunction with the saddle cover of the present invention.
It is not necessarily necessary to use an upright stand as described above, and it is also possible to use a conventional horse-shaped support.

The saddle cover of the present invention is constructed as described above.
When transporting two-wheeled vehicles (a), such as racing motorcycles, which do not have stands, for example, from a racetrack in - to another racetrack, the saddle cover of the present invention is fitted to the saddle of each two-wheeled vehicle (a), and the two-wheeled vehicle (a) is transported. are loaded onto a train or truck and lined up horizontally, and the above-mentioned upright stand 2
0 and make each two-wheeled vehicle a stand side by side.

Then, each cover has a horizontal recess 3 on the top surface of the main body 1.
is located approximately on the tangential line and becomes straight.

Therefore, a holding bar such as a square lumber is inserted horizontally into the recess 3 of each cover main body 1, and at the same time, it is inserted through a screw shaft f set up on the floor and is screwed from above with a nut g in the direction of the floor. 4, thereby fixing the motorcycle a by pressing it down with the bar (Fig. 4).

At this time, the handle C is fixed by the band 12.

However, in the saddle cover of the present invention, the cover body 1 is made of a hard or semi-hard synthetic resin foam, so the pressing force of the bar is not directly applied to a part of the saddle, but the cover body 1 is made of hard or semi-hard synthetic resin foam.
It acts indirectly on the wide surface of the entire saddle via the seat, and there is no possibility that the press marks of the bar will remain depressed on the saddle seat, and there is no possibility that the seat will become uncomfortable.

In addition, if a bar receiving member 5 is vertically adjustable in the recess 3 into which the presser bar is fitted, it is possible to adjust the height of the individual saddles of the two wheels parallel to each other in a horizontal row. If there is a difference in height and the height of the saddle cover fitted thereto is also different, by vertically adjusting the receiving member 5, each receiving member 5 can be adjusted to the same height, and one rod can be adjusted to the same height. With this material, each supporting member 5 can evenly press each two-wheeled vehicle a, and each two-wheeled vehicle a can be stably fixed.

Furthermore, since the cover main body 1 is fitted onto the saddle through the fitting recess 2 on the lower surface, and the bar is fitted into the recess 3 on the upper surface, there is no possibility that the saddle cover will come off due to vibration or impact during transportation. There is no fear that the two-wheeled vehicle a will shift in the front-rear direction.

Particularly, by fitting the rods into the recesses Pyr3, the two-wheeled vehicles a can be lined up straight in a row, which also helps to prevent lateral displacement and inclination.

Therefore, the saddle cover of the present invention can be used to securely and stably fix two-wheeled vehicles such as racing motorcycles when transporting them, and does not leave any pressure marks caused by the bars. It is extremely suitable as a contact pad.
