Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a fairing device attached to a motorcycle for the purpose of reducing running resistance and providing a windshield.

A fairing device attached to a motorcycle includes a fairing body that is attached to the front part of the vehicle body and is provided so as to cover the front upper part of the vehicle body, and a transparent windscreen that is erected at an angle on the upper part of the fairing body.

In such a fairing device, the outer shape of the fairing device is formed into a streamlined shell shape that expands rearward from the front end by the fairing main body and the wind screen, and the fairing device has a fairing main body and a wind screen that extend outward from the front end to the left and right of the wind screen that is tilted upright on the main body. The left and right portions of the upper portion extend to form left and right support pillar portions of the screen, and these pillar portions are integrally molded with the fairing body and located on the upper left and right sides of the upper portion of the fairing, that is, above the front of the handlebar. .

For this reason, if the motorcycle falls over, the thin pillars located at a high position come into contact with the road surface and are likely to be damaged, and in the event of damage, the entire fairing body must be replaced. Also, when packing and transporting the fairing, the pillars may protrude to the left and right of the top of the main body even if the windscreen is removed from the main body.
Therefore, it is not possible to make it compact, and when it is packaged, it becomes large and has a large capacity, making it impossible to reduce transportation costs. The present inventor has devised the present invention in order to improve the above-mentioned disadvantages of fairings. The support pillars are formed separately from the fairing body and are attached to the fairing body to support the left and right sides of the windscreen, so even if the temporary pillars are damaged when the motorcycle falls, all you need to do is replace them. In addition, there is no need to replace the entire fairing body as in the past, and damaged parts can be easily repaired at low cost. It is an object of the present invention to provide a fairing device for a motorcycle, which has a compact outer shape by removing a pillar part, which enables a reduction in packaging volume and transportation costs.

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

FIG. 1 is a side view showing the mounting stay of the motorcycle 1 in a transparent manner, FIG. 2 is a front view of the same, and FIG. 3 is a plan view of the same. The upper part of the fork pipe 5 of the front fork 4 is pivotally connected via the bridge 6, and the lower part of the front fork 4 connects the front wheel 7.
A handle 8 is attached on the bridge 6.

A fuel tank 9 is mounted on the upper front part of the frame 2, and an engine 10 is mounted below this.A rear cowl 11 extends behind the fuel tank 9, and a seat 12 is attached on top of this. A rear wheel 13 is supported by a rear fork extending from the front, and a rear cushion unit 14 is interposed between the rear fork and the frame. A fairing 15 is attached to the upper front part of the above motorcycle.

The fairing 15 consists of a fairing main body 16 molded from synthetic resin and a transparent windscreen 17 erected obliquely at the upper front part of the fairing main body 16.

The main body 16 has a head drying port 8 at the front end, a streamlined shell-shaped front part 16a formed to expand rearward, and a front part 16a that extends rearward from the left and right sides of the front part and faces the front left and right sides of the fuel tank 9. It consists of an intermediate part 16b and a rear part 16c extending downwardly from both sides of the rear part of the engine, and the rear part 16c is connected to the intermediate part 16b.
It is connected to the rear lower end as a separate member. The main body 16 consists of a front part 16a1 and a middle part 16b which are integrally formed.
is mounted and supported on the vehicle body side by mounting stays 19 that are mounted and extended on the left and right sides of the front of the frame. The main body 16 except the rear part 16c is integrally molded, and the upper surface of the front part has a generally U-shaped planar space 16d, and both sides of the front part have a generally U-shaped side recess 16e.

A lower mounting step 16f is formed on the upper surface of the front part of the main body around the space 16d, and the upper ends of the thin pillar bases 16g on the left and right between the upper end of the mounting step and the upper end of the recessed notch 16e are cut. A pillar member 20 formed separately from the main body 16 is connected to each tip of the left and right pillar bases 16g, and the pillar member 20 has a shape that gradually tapers toward the tip by extending the pillar base 16g. None, it is molded from synthetic resin etc. in a symmetrical shape. The pillar member 20 supports the left and right upper portions 17a of the windscreen 17, and has a mounting step 20a on one side of its surface that is connected and continuous with the mounting step 16f of the main body pillar base 16g. A mounting piece 20c is provided protruding from the joint end 20b,
This is joined to the upper end of the stepped portion 16f of the pillar base portion 16g, and both mounting holes 20d and 16h are screwed to connect the pillar member 20 to the pillar base portion 16g. and step part 1
6f and 20a have mounting holes 161... and 20
Mounting holes 17b, which are provided on the left and right sides of the windscreen 17, and mounting holes 161 in the front space circumferential portion 16f of the main body. The mounting hole 20e of the pillar member 20 connected to the tip of...
and then attach the windscreen 1 using bolts or screws.
7 to the fairing body side. FIGS. 4 to 6 show the disassembled state of each of these members. Reference numeral 21 in the drawings indicates rearview mirrors attached to the left and right sides of the upper front part of the main body. In the above, if the motorcycle 1 falls, the fairing 15
The upper left and right parts of the pillar member 2, especially one side of the area A indicated by the diagonal chain line in FIG.
0 collides with the road.

If the pillar member 20 is damaged as a result, since the pillar member 20 is as described above, it is sufficient to remove it from the pillar mounting portion 16g of the main body 16 and install a new pillar member, and there is no need to replace the entire main body 16. Therefore, the main body can be repaired at low cost. Furthermore, the pillar member 20 can be removed from the main body together with the windscreen 17, so that the entire height of the pillar part base 16g and end 16j is reduced, and the space shown by the diagonal chain line B in FIG. 7 is no longer needed. It can be packed with the volume shown by the chain line C in Figure 5.

Therefore, it is convenient for packaging, the packaging space can be made compact, and it is convenient for transportation. As is clear from the foregoing, according to the present invention, the pillars on the left and right sides of the upper part of the windscreen, which are inclinedly erected on the front part of the fairing body, are molded separately from the main body, and are joined to the main body to form the upper left and right pillars of the windscreen. Since the pillar part is easily damaged when it collides with the road surface when a motorcycle falls over, it is not necessary to replace only this pillar part and the entire fairing when it is damaged, making it possible to repair the fairing easily and inexpensively. In addition, since the pillar portion can be removed, the volume when packed is compact, it is convenient to transport, and it has many advantages such as being able to reduce transportation costs.
