Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate the loading and unloading of a two-wheeled vehicle, by providing a main frame with a front and a rear wheel support frames and a vehicle body support frame and enabling the vehicle to be tilted by a lever which can be optionally inserted or pulled out. CONSTITUTION:A main frame C is provided with a front wheel support portion 2, a rear wheel support portion 3 and a vehicle body support frame 4 so that a two-wheeled vehicle B can be secured on them. A lever H is inserted into a sheath member 6 so that the lever can be pulled out. The lever H has a grip portion 9. Since the vehicle can be titled about support legs 3C by pushing the grip portion 9, the loading of the two-wheeled vehicle B into an automobile A and the unloading therefrom are facilitated.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a carrier for a two-wheeled vehicle, in particular a motorcycle.

When a two-wheeled vehicle is loaded onto the loading platform of a passenger car, truck, etc. and transported, the loading and unloading work of loading the two-wheeled vehicle onto the loading platform from the ground and unloading it from the loading platform onto the ground is performed. Loading and unloading work can now be carried out efficiently by hand with relatively little effort.
The main purpose is to obtain a two-wheeled vehicle carrier with a simple structure.

One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to one drawing. The device of the present invention includes a carrier main body C on which a two-wheeled vehicle B can be mounted, and an operation handle H that is removably inserted into the carrier main body C and can tilt the carrier main body C. It consists of

Next, the structure of the carrier main body C and the operating handle H will be explained mainly with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

The carrier main body C includes a main frame 1 constituted by a frame of a pipe member 1α, a front wheel support frame 2 fixed to the front part of this main frame 1, and a rear wheel support frame 3 fixed to the rear part of the main frame 1. and a vehicle body support frame 4 fixed to the central part of the main frame 1, the main frame 1 is composed of straight pipe members 1a and 1α extending parallel to each other, and the front wheel support frame 2 is The leg plate 2b receives the tread surface of the front wheel Wf on the lower surface of the front wheel receiving part 2α, which is formed by endlessly bending a pipe member and fixed to the front end of the main frame 1 so as to fit and support the lower part of the front wheel Wf.
The lower surface of the leg plate 2b is grounded on the ground plane. The rear wheel support frame 3 is fixed to the rear end of the main frame 1, and includes a rear wheel receiving portion 3a and a pipe formed by curving a pipe member into a U-shape so as to receive the lower rear surface of the rear wheel Wr. The support leg 3b is formed by endlessly bending a member into a substantially trapezoidal planar shape and is fixed to the rear end of the main frame 1.
This support leg 3b has a wheel receiver 3d in its center, and its lower edge 3C is grounded on the ground. As will be described later, the carrier main body C is tilted upward using this lower edge 3C as a fulcrum. Further, the vehicle body support frame 4 has inverted U-shaped upright portions 4 at both left and right ends by pipe members.
The left and right upright portions 4b are formed of a frame 4α having a rectangular planar shape and are fixed to the front and rear intermediate portions of the main frame 1.

Cushioning materials 5, 5 are fixed to the upper edge of 4b,
On this body support frame 4, the front and rear intermediate portions of the body of the two-wheeled vehicle B can be fastened and fixed as described later.

On the rear ends of the two pipe members 1α, 1α constituting the main frame 1, there is a hawk-shaped insertion portion 8.8 of an operation bundle H, which will be described later.
A pair of sheath members 6, 6 are fixedly attached to the sheath members 6, 6 for inserting and removably inserting.

The operating handle H is integrally formed with the foregoing hawk-shaped insertion part 8.8 at the front part of the main frame T formed by a pipe member, and a grip part 9 which is gripped by the operator at the rear end.

Next, referring to FIGS. 3 to 5, the vehicle A is
The case where motorcycle B is loaded onto the loading platform will be explained.

First, as shown in Figure 3, the motorcycle B is moved to the carrier body C.
be mounted on top. In this state, the front and rear wheels of motorcycle B
As described above, f' f and IF r are respectively supported on the front and rear wheel support frames 2 and 3, the front wheel W'f is engaged with the front wheel receiving part 2α, and the rear wheel ψγ is engaged with the rear wheel receiving part 3α. engaged. Further, the intermediate portion of the body of the motorcycle B is supported on the body support frame 4 via cushioning materials 5, 5, and the body and the body support frame 4 are tightened and fixed together by a suitable tightening band 10.

When the motorcycle B is fixed on the carrier main body C in the above manner, the hawk-shaped insertion portion 8.8 of the operating handle H is inserted onto the pair of sheath members 6.6 on the rear end of the carrier main body C.

Next, after folding the steering wheel of the motorcycle B, when the rear end of the operating handle H, that is, the grip portion 9 is pushed down, the carrier main body C is moved from the support leg 3b as shown in FIG. It is tilted about the lower edge 3C as a fulcrum, and the front part of the carrier main body C can be lifted up. In this case, as shown in Fig. 4, the weight of motorcycle B = F, the crab P that pushes down the operating handle H, the distance from the fulcrum of the support leg to the center of gravity G of motorcycle B: l, and set -1<11. JFl-f'ν, F>F', and the front part of the carrier main body C can be tilted relatively easily.

Thereafter, the automobile A is moved backward, and the front portion of the carrier main body C is brought into engagement with the rear edge of the cargo bed of the automobile A.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the rear part of the carrier main body C is lifted together with the operating handle H, the carrier main body C is slid onto the cargo bed of the automobile A, and finally the operating handle H is pulled out from the carrier main body C.

Further, when unloading the motorcycle B from the loading platform, the operation described above for loading may be performed.

As described above, according to the present invention, a carrier consisting of a carrier main body on which a two-wheeled vehicle can be mounted and an operation handle that is removably inserted into the carrier main body can be used to extend the vehicle between the ground and the loading platform of a transport vehicle such as an automobile. With this, two-wheeled vehicles can be easily loaded and unloaded manually with relatively little effort, and the work efficiency can be greatly improved.
