Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a front blinker device for a motorcycle having a fairing.

A fairing is attached to the front of a motorcycle for the purpose of windshielding and regulating air flow. The fairing incorporates a headlight at the front end to cover the front of the vehicle,
The appearance can be improved by enclosing the meter unit etc. installed in front of the steering wheel, but on the other hand, when installing left and right turn signal units on the front side, it is easier to install the units by assembling them integrally with the fairing. This allows effective use of space, simplification of mounting stays, etc., and simplification of the mounting structure, but on the other hand, it is not the best in terms of appearance if the harness of the internal lamp is exposed on the outside of the fairing. If it is difficult or the lamp is burnt out,
It is difficult to say that it is best for maintenance if the lenses of the turn signal unit that are integrally assembled with the fairing are removed one by one, and especially when the lenses are integrally assembled with the fairing, it is troublesome to attach and detach the lenses one by one.

The present invention was developed to improve this problem, and includes a turn signal unit with a lamp inside the lens that is integrally assembled to the left and right ends of the fairing, and the back of the lamp is opened and can be opened and closed using a cover plate. At the same time, the lamp is held on the inner surface of the cover plate, and the power supply harness for the lamp is led into the inside of the fairing through the lens's fairing attachment part, and the appearance is improved by integrating the turn signal unit with the fairing. In addition, it is convenient in terms of maintenance as it is possible to easily change the lamp by opening the lid without removing the lens. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a front blinker device for a motorcycle.

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 of the motorcycle 1, and FIG. 2 is a front view of the same, in which a front fork 3 that supports a front wheel 4 is pivotably supported via a head tube (not shown) at the front end of the frame 2 so as to be freely steerable.

A fairing 11 is attached to the motorcycle 1 that covers the front upper part of the front fork, both sides of the middle part of the fuel tank 6, and both sides of the front part of the engine 7, and the fairing 11 is formed of a plate-shaped body made of synthetic resin. The fairing 11 consists of a main body 12, a bonnet-like lid 13 at the upper part of the front part, and a wind screen 14 erected at an angle at the upper part of the front part.

The fairing body 12 has a front portion 12 extending forward of the upper part of the front fork 3 in front of the handlebar 5.
a, a middle part 12b extending to both sides of the middle part of the fuel tank 6, and a part 12c hanging down from the rear part of the front part and the middle part to both sides of the front part of the engine, and has a streamlined outer shape to plan for flow rectification. . A headlight 15 is attached to the front end of the main body 12a, the lower side and both sides of the headlight 15 are surrounded by a front concave portion 12d provided at the front end of the main body, and the upper side is surrounded by the lower end of the lid 13,
The lid body 13 swings back and forth using its lower end as a hinge, and can be opened and closed on the front part 12a of the main body 12, and can be opened to replace the bulb of the headlight 15 or to replace the meter unit provided in front of the handle and facing the space in the front part 12a. Normally, the cover 13 is closed as shown in the figure, and the upper left and right ends of the cover 13 are connected to the lower sides of the windscreen 14 with bolts 13a, etc., for maintenance. .

A meter unit 16 is provided in front of the steering wheel 5 so that its surface faces the driver, details of which are shown in FIG. and a display section 16b for displaying driving conditions, a turn signal display section 16c, etc., which are connected to the meter panel 16.
A meter visor 17 is disposed above the panel 16d, and an inner panel 18 is disposed below the panel 16d to cover the front of the handle at the front of the fairing body.

Front blinker units 19 are provided on the front left and right sides of the main body 12 of the fairing 11 so as to appear integrated with the main body 12. The lens 20 of the turn signal unit 19 has a box-like triangular pyramid shape with the front part forming the top of a triangular pyramid, and as shown in FIG. U-shaped turn signal base 2
1, the main body 20a is provided with joint flange parts 20b, 20b on the upper and lower inner ends, and the flange parts 20b, 20b are overlapped and bonded with the joint flange parts 21a, 21a provided on the upper and lower outer ends of the base 21. etc., and the base 21 is provided with a mounting hole 21b and a harness insertion hole 21c. and main body 2
The rear end of the joint unit between 0a and base 21 is open S
A plurality of brackets 22... are each formed integrally with the main body and the base at the end of the open part, and the brackets 22...
are each provided with screw holes 22a for mounting. The lens 20 is attached and supported at the rear part of the mating surface L of the front part 12a of the fairing body 12 with the lid body 13, and protrudes inside the rear part of the mating surface L at the upper end of the front part 12a as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. Roughly L-shaped stay plate 23
The stay plate 23 has a mounting hole 23a and a harness insertion hole 23b, and the back surface of the base 21 of the lens 20 is aligned with the outer surface of the stay plate 23.
A rubber bush 24 or the like is interposed between the lens and the base 21, bolts 25 are passed through the mounting holes 23a and 21b, and the harness 26 is introduced into the lens 20 through the insertion holes 23b and 21c. The upper and lower joining flanges 20b and 20a of the lens 20 are connected to the lid plate 1.
At the edge 13b of this part of 3, also lower the front part 12a.
The base 21 is housed between the edge 12e and the stay plate 23, and only the triangular pyramid-shaped lens body 20a bulges outward.

The open part S at the end of the lens 20 is formed into a cover plate 27, and the cover plate 27 has mounting holes 27a on the outer side, a reflector 28 on the inner surface, and a connection holding terminal 30 for the lamp 29 at the lower center of the cover plate 27. and connect the terminal 30 to the harness 26. This is shown in FIG. 6, where the cover plate 27 is placed against the opening S, the bolt 31 is passed through the mounting hole 27a, and the bolt 31 is inserted into the mounting hole 2 of the bracket 22.
2a, the cover plate 27 is tied to the rear end of the lens 20, the opening S is closed, and the harness 26 is attached to the lens 20.
It is stored within 0. Maintenance work such as bulb replacement is performed by removing the bolts 31 and opening the cover plate 27 as shown in FIG. 6, so there is no need to disassemble the lens 20. In the drawings, reference numeral 32 denotes a back mirror, which in the embodiment is provided above the turn signal unit 19 so as to protrude laterally.

As is clear from the above, according to the present invention, since the turn signal unit is provided integrally with the fairing, the appearance can be improved, and since the turn signal unit is box-shaped and the harness is stored inside, the harness is not exposed to the outside. Without a problem,
The appearance has been further improved, and there is no need for a special cover for the harness.Furthermore, since the back cover is used, screws etc. are not exposed to the outside, making it possible to improve the appearance as well as making it easier to replace the lamp. etc., can be done by removing the cover plate, there is no need to disassemble the lens, and it has many advantages such as being convenient in terms of maintenance workability.
