Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a handlebar cover for a motorcycle.

The applicant previously proposed a fuse box device for a motorcycle in which a fuse box is attached to a top bridge to which a handle is attached.

Such a fuse box is equipped with a cover to make the internal fuse waterproof and dustproof, but on the other hand,
When the handle cover covers the middle part of the handle and the attachment part of the handle to the top bridge, the above-mentioned fuse box cover is further covered.

The present invention was devised in view of the above, and its purpose is to provide a fuse box on the top bridge to which the handle pipe is fixed, place the handle cover on top of the fuse box, and use the cover to secure the lid of the fuse box. It is an object of the present invention to provide a handle cover device for a motorcycle, which reduces the number of parts, reduces the number of installation steps, improves maintenance workability, and further increases the strength and rigidity of the handle cover.

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

FIG. 6 is a schematic side view of a motorcycle, in which a front fork 6 that supports a front wheel 5 through upper and lower bridges 3 and 4 is pivotally supported at the front end of a frame 2 of the motorcycle 1 so as to be steerable. An engine 7 is mounted on the middle lower part of the frame 2, and a fuel tank 8 is mounted on the upper part.A seat 9 is attached behind the tank 8, and a rear wheel 10 is mounted on the rear part of the frame via a rear fork. There is.

The top bridge 3 is as shown in the plan view of FIG. 4, and is provided with a steering stem holding portion 3b at the rear of the central portion of holding portions 3a for holding fork pipes of left and right front forks at both left and right ends. A handle holder 21 is fixed on the middle part of the top bridge 3, and the handle holder 21 consists of a lower member 22 and an upper member 23 which is a fuse box, and has two halves symmetrically opposed to each other at the joint parts 22a and 23a. It is provided with circular recesses 22b and 23b, and the middle part of the handle pipe 11 is firmly supported between the joined circular recesses, and the lower member 22 and fuse box 23 are provided concentrically at the front and rear of the parts near both sides, respectively. The lower member 22 is formed separately from the top bridge 3 in the embodiment shown in FIG. It may also be molded. The fuse box 23 forming the upper member has a recess 24 opened upward in the center.
The fuse is housed in this part, and raised walls 25 are provided on the four sides, and the left and right side walls 25
b, 25b has a slightly thick boss portion 26 in the width direction,
26 and passes through the screw hole 26 in the thickness direction.
a, 26a.

The handle cover 31 is shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 5.
As shown in the figure, the main body 32 has a planar trapezoidal shape,
The front portion 33 is wide and the rear portion 34 is narrow.
Extending parts 3 that slope backward on both sides of the middle part or the rear part
5,35. The cover 31 has a main body that completely covers the top bridge, and has left and right extensions 35, 3.
5 covers the handle pipe 11 up to just before the grip 12. A hole 36 penetrating vertically is provided in the middle part of the front part 33, and the main switch 13 is inserted into this part.
etc. will be presented. The main body 32 has a middle part or a rear part 34 that protrudes in a chevron shape, and this part is high. The back plate 38 is made of a hard synthetic resin, and the surface member 37 covers the surface of the back plate 38. At the middle part of the lower surface of the back plate 38, spaced apart from side to side, there are chevron-shaped middle parts between the front and rear parts 38a, 38b.
A side piece 39 that connects the front and rear ends is provided in a hanging manner, and front and rear pieces 40 and 41 that connect with the front and rear ends of the side pieces are provided in a hanging manner. Each piece 3
9, 40, and 41 are provided with a stepped portion 42 that engages with the upper end of the raised wall 25, so that the upper end of the raised wall is surrounded by the stepped portion. A support piece 43 is provided on the outer side of each of the left and right side pieces 39 in a downwardly protruding manner, and the above-mentioned parts including the support piece 43 are integrally molded as a back plate 38.

Attach the above handle cover 31 to the top bridge 3
Place the pieces 39, 40 at the bottom of the middle part of the back plate 38 on top.
41 on the raised wall 25 of the fuse box 23 via the stepped portion 42, and the supporting piece 43 is attached to the raised wall side wall 25.
The handle cover is fixed to the fuse box by overlapping the outer surface of the boss portion 26 of FIG. In this way, the fuse box is covered with the handle cover, and the handle cover also serves as the lid of the fuse box.

In addition, FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the handle cover in a state in which the handle cover is assembled. In the figure, 51 is a fairing equipped with a meter visor 52, and 53 is a meter.

In the above embodiments, the handle cover is made of a double structure consisting of a front material and a back material, but it may be made of a single plate, and the specific shape of the handle cover is arbitrary.

As is clear from the above, according to the present invention, since the handle holder upper member of the motorcycle is made of a fuse box, there is no need to separately install a fuse box on the frame, etc., and in addition to the original effect of being advantageous in terms of space, the fuse Since the lid of the box is made up of a handle cover, there is no need for a lid specific to the fuse box, and the number of parts can therefore be reduced. In addition to reducing the number of parts in the handle cover, a protrusion is provided on the back side of the handle cover to form the lid body, which increases the rib effect and increases the strength and rigidity of the handle cover. The handle cover can be attached and supported to the fuse box using the side part of the piece, so the handle cover mounting part is not exposed to the outside, which improves the appearance. In this regard, the engagement structure described above prevents the handle cover from rotating, making it possible to install the handle cover more securely, and also making it waterproof.
It has many advantages, including being convenient in terms of fortification.
