Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement of a windshield device for a motorcycle or the like.

More specifically, a windshield plate provided at the front of a motorcycle or the like is made to be able to slide vertically and arbitrarily be fixed to a leg shield provided below the windshield plate, and the height of the windshield plate is adjusted vertically. This side rack for motorcycles, etc. can be adjusted to suit the rider's riding posture, physique, etc., and can be used at the optimal height according to the rider's riding posture, physique, etc., and can be stored by stacking it with the leg shield when not in use, saving storage space. Regarding equipment.

In motorcycles, etc., a leg shield that protects the rider's lower legs from the wind and a windshield plate that protects the rider's upper legs from the wind are installed in front of the steering wheel.

Since the windshield protects the upper limbs, it may obstruct forward visibility depending on the passenger's riding posture and physique. Generally, the windshield is fixed and its height cannot be adjusted, which is inconvenient.

Also, when the windshield plate is not needed, it can be removed.
This is inconvenient because it needs to be reassembled when necessary.

The inventors of the present invention have devised the present invention in order to solve the above-mentioned problems in windshields of motorcycles and the like.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a windshield device for a motorcycle, etc., in which a windshield plate can be slid vertically with respect to a leg shield provided under the windshield plate and can be fixed at an arbitrary height. The windshield is designed to suit the rider's riding position and physique, or to easily accommodate the wind that the rider desires, and the windshield is overlapped with the leg shield so that it can be removed and stored. To provide a windshield device for motorcycles, etc., which facilitates removal work and saves storage space.

Next, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a side view of the motorcycle, FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of the leg shield and windshield plate, and FIG. 3 shows a cross-sectional plan view of the main parts of the windshield device.

A motorcycle 1 includes a frame pipe 3 extending rearward from a tube 2, and a seat post 4 extending upward.
, a passenger seat 5 provided on the seat post 4
Equipped with.

A unit swing type power unit 5 including an engine is hung down from the lower part of the frame pipe 3, a rear wheel 7 is attached and supported at the rear of the unit 6, and a runner 8 is provided on the rear wheel 7.

A cushion unit 9 is installed between the rear part of the unit 6 and the lower part of the seat 5, and 10 in the figure is a step.

On the other hand, a front fork 12 that supports the front wheel 11 extends below the head tube 2. The front fork 12 is pivotally supported within the head tube 2, and is coupled to a steering shaft 13Vc extending above the head tube 2. bill
A bundle 14 is attached to the upper end of the steering shaft 13, and a front fender 15 is provided on the front wheel 11.

In the above, the head tube 2 is located in front of the bundle 14.
A leg shield 16 is placed in front of the vehicle to protect the lower legs of the occupants from the wind.
will be established.

The leg shield consists of a shield plate 17, and the shield plate 17 is curved so as to bulge out somewhat forward as shown in FIG. Branching piece 17b diagonally backward 7 downward from the lower left and right of the main body 17a,
17b is formed and faces the rear left and right sides of the fender 15.

The middle part of the main body 17a is attached to the head tube 2 with a mounting bracket 18.
Vc connected, branch piece 1γb.

The lower end of 17b is connected to the front left and right sides of the frame pipe 3 via metal fittings 19 and 19.

On the front side of the shield plate 17 forming the leg shield 16, two guide rails 20.20 are vertically arranged vertically in parallel in the vertical direction, and grooves 20a are provided on each opposing inner surface of the rails 20.20.
, 20a are formed.

A windshield plate 21 made of a transparent plate or the like is provided on the front surface of the windshield plate 17 described above.

The windshield plate 21 is curved similarly to the main body 17a of the shield plate 17, and is formed in a similar shape having approximately the same area.

A mounting plate 22 is provided at the bottom of the windshield plate 21, and a center protrusion 22a protruding from the front of the mounting plate 22 has a threaded rod 23 portion of a rotary operation knob 24 having a threaded rod 23 formed in a hole 22 in the front-rear direction.
b, and this threaded rod 23 is connected to the rail 20.20.
It is screwed into a screw hole 26 provided in the center of a plate-shaped slider 25 which is slidably engaged with the grooves 20a and 20a at both ends.

As a result, the windshield plate 21 can freely slide vertically relative to the shield plate 17 by engaging the rail 20 and the slider 25, and by rotating the tab □24 and tightening the slider 25 forward, the groove 20a This increases the friction between the two parts and fixes it at any desired height.

1 and 2 both show an upwardly extending position where the upper part of the shield plate 11 and the lower part of the wind wave plate 21 overlap in the front and back,
By loosening the slider 25 by rotating the knob 24, the l plate 21 becomes slidable, and is guided by the rail 20 and can be slid vertically in front of the shield plate 17. After adjusting the height, it can be adjusted to any desired height. At this position, turn the knob 24 in the direction to fix the LM cover plate 21 at that position.

In the above, the windshield plate 21 is the main body 17 of the shield plate 17.
Since it has approximately the same area and similar shape as a, the wind wave plate 21 is lowered to the lower limit and fixed, whereby the shield plate 17 and the windshield plate 21 overlap front and back, and the wind wave plate 21 is removed. It is now stored in the front of the shield plate 1γ.

Therefore, the removal work of the windshield plate 21 can be easily carried out without removing it, and since it overlaps with the shield "ri, 17", no separate storage space is required.

The slide and lock mechanisms in the above embodiments are not limited to those described above and may be arbitrary.

Although the above description has been made for a two-wheeled vehicle, it goes without saying that the present invention can also be applied to a three-wheeled vehicle with one front wheel.

As is clear from the above, according to the present invention, the windshield plate is configured to be able to slide vertically on the front of the leg shield and can be fixed at any height position, so that the height of the windshield plate can be adjusted arbitrarily and easily. The height of the windshield plate can be set according to the riding posture and physique of the occupant.

In addition, by lowering the windshield plate to the lower limit, it completely overlaps the leg shield from front to back, so the windshield plate can be removed by the simple operation of lowering it, and the windshield plate overlaps the leg shield at the front of the leg shield. Since it is stored in a single container, it does not require any special storage space and is very advantageous in terms of space.
