Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] $Yuancho relates to footrests for motorcycles and the like.

A common method used to reduce the weight of motorcycles and the like is to convert 8gII material into aluminum. It is possible to reduce the weight of the fuerst by using aluminum to carry it, but since this aluminum is expensive, the drawback is that the cost burden will be heavier than when using the temporary first. There is.

In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a footrest for a motorcycle or the like that can achieve the same weight reduction as aluminum without using aluminum.

A four-wheeled motor vehicle etc. according to the present invention, which achieves the above object, has an arm attached to the side of the vehicle, and an outer shell plate with a bottom and an opening at the top formed of a sheet metal at the end of the arm. is fixed, and a rubber plate is attached to cover the upper opening of this outer shell plate, and this rubber plate is used as a footrest.

This is a special topic.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a side view showing the main parts of a motorcycle equipped with a footrest according to the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 1 is a main frame, 2 is a down tube, 3 is a frame extending diagonally backward by -7 from the main frame 1, and 4 is an engine. A border 5 is welded from the connecting T surface of the frame 3 to the rear of the main frame 1, and a mounting bracket 6, which is aligned with the bracket 5 of ] and also serves as a base, is attached to its front end. The upper part is identified by a bolt 7.

Furthermore, the front end lower part of this full reflex 1 loss imma 1 root 6 is fastened and fixed to the pedal support shaft 8 together. The foot strike mounting plate 6 is made of aluminum alloy casting,
The front part has a foot for the driver, 19, and the rear has a foot for the rear passenger.
χl lO is ¥! 1. It is attached.

FIGS. 2-7 show details of the footless 110 that is attached to the rear of the foot 1 nost described above.

As shown in the exploded view of FIG. 7, this footrest 10 includes a mounting bracket 111. Arm 12, this arm 1
The outer shell plate 113 fixed to 2 and this outer shell plate b-
It consists of a rubber plate 14 attached to the upper surface of -113, and also includes a rubber plate 24 and a spring 1 as members for connecting the handle bracket 111 and the arm 12.
5. Rope Th1116. ! A II pin 17 is provided.

The mounting bracket 11 has a U-shaped bifurcated flap, and is fixed to the rear part of the mounting bracket 11 by bolts 18 fixed to the rear side thereof. The arm 12 is formed of sheet metal, and the connecting portion aligned with the mounting bracket 11 is formed into a rectangular tube shape, and the portion to which the rubber plate 14 is attached is formed into a half-circular shape. The outer shell 13 is similarly formed from sheet metal, and is shaped like a box with a bottom and an open top. An arm 1 is placed inside this outer shell plate 13.
2 is inserted, and both are fixed together by welding 19. The rubber plate 14 serves as a footrest, and a metal plate 20 is embedded inside the rubber plate 14 so as to cover the upper opening of the outer shell butt 13 and have its central portion abut against the upper surface of the arm 12. I have to. In this state, the rubber plate 14 is attached to the arm 12 by the screw 21 via the metal plate 20. It is removably fixed.

The arm 12 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 1 by a pin 24, and the pin 24 is prevented from being removed by a split pin 17. Therefore, foot 1. -';I, )
io is the position shown by the protrusion protruding in the groove direction as shown in FIG. 2, and the position 11) along the plate 6! It can be folded into the position indicated by the stored sentry carp. Also,
As shown in FIG. 6, the arm 12 has a steel ball 16 attached to one side of the side wall.
is held, and this steel ball 16 is pressed against the inner wall plate of the mounting bracket 111 by the elastic force of the spring 15. And then, foot 1.・Stroke 10 to 1l) 2
When folded to the storage position, the steel ball 16 engages with the retaining hole 23 formed in the retaining frame 111, and the left side 10 is held so that it is not easily scraped. There is.

The footrest 10 described above has at least the outer shell plate 113, which is the main body thereof, formed of a sheet metal with a bottom and an opening at the top, and the upper opening is further covered with a rubber plate. Therefore, it is essentially a hollow 18 structure, and its heavy use can be reduced to 1Mfi, similar to aluminum.

Moreover, the outer shell plate) +3 is press-molded, so it looks good, and the footrest is shaped by the good-looking outer shell plate and the rubber plate that covers the upper opening, so the footrest l The overall appearance can be improved.

Further, if the arm 12 is also made of sheet metal as in the above embodiment, it becomes possible to further reduce the weight of the armrest. Furthermore, as in the above embodiment, if the metal plate 20 is buried inside the rubber strip 14 that covers the upper opening of the outer shell 113, the rubber plate 14 can be easily attached and detached using the screws 21, and its replacement. In addition to making work easier, the rubber plate 1
4 will not easily sink and lose its shape, so deterioration in appearance can be avoided.

Although the above embodiment has been described with respect to the rear footrest 10, except for the folding and lateral movement of the mounting bracket l-11 and the arm 12, other main IN configurations are also applied to the front tool rest 9. Is it possible to apply?

As mentioned above, the foolproof vehicle of the present invention, such as a motorcycle with a diameter of 11 mm, has an arm attached to the side of the vehicle, and a bottomed and upper opening made of sheet metal at the end of the arm.
The shaped outer shell plate 1 is fixed, a rubber machine is installed so as to cover the upper opening of this outer shell plate, and this rubber machine is configured to be placed on a foot. Therefore, it is possible to use aluminum material f! <7-) Leno) is as lightweight as aluminum 1
It becomes possible to hit.
