Description

Straddle type vehicle

The invention relates to a straddle-type vehicle, and more particularly to a rear portion of a straddle-type vehicle.

Conventionally, a straddle type vehicle in which a rear turn signal is formed by using a plurality of light emitting diode light sources is known.

For example, in the straddle-type vehicle of Patent Document 1, a rear turn signal including a plurality of light-emitting diode light sources is disposed in a rear case. By using a light-emitting diode as the light source of the rear turn signal, the rear turn signal can be made smaller compared to a light bulb type rear turn signal.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 13, the straddle-type vehicle of Patent Document 2 has rear shells 902L and 902R, and these rear shells 902L and 902R are supported by a vehicle body frame (not shown in the drawing) and have a rearward direction. Extend the lower edge. The rear fender 903 extends rearward and downward from the rear ends of the lower edges of the rear shells 902L and 902R. The rear fender 903 extends rearward and downward from the upper end of the rear wheel WR. The left and right rear turn signals 904L and 904R are attached to the left and right sides of the rear fender 903, respectively. As shown in FIG. 14, the left and right rear direction indicators 904L and 904R include a plurality of light emitting diode light sources 906, 906, 906, and 906 arranged on the substrate 905.

In such Patent Document 2, since the left and right rear turn signals 904L and 904R are not attached to the rear cases 902L and 902R, the rear cases 902L and 902R can be formed to be relatively small.

Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-44538

Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2012-76573

As described above, in Patent Document 1, by using a light-emitting diode as a light source of the rear turn signal, the rear turn signal can be made smaller than a light bulb type rear turn signal. On the other hand, in order to ensure the viewing angle of the rear turn signal, the size of the left and right direction of the vehicle of the rear turn signal is generally made longer, thereby ensuring the light emitting area across the vehicle in the left and right direction and a longer size. However, if the size of the vehicle in the left-right direction of the rear turn signal is long and the rear turn signal is arranged in the rear shell, the rear shell will be enlarged in the width direction of the vehicle, so that it will be difficult to form a small size.

On the other hand, in the left and right rear direction indicators 904L and 904R of Patent Document 2, a plurality of light emitting diode light sources 906 are arranged in parallel along the left-right direction of the vehicle. , 906, 906, 906. The left and right rear turn signals 904L and 904R have long dimensions in the left-right direction of the vehicle. That is, the left and right direction indicators 904L and 904R are formed such that the size of the left-right direction of the vehicle is larger than the size of the up-down direction. Therefore, since the left and right rear turn signal lights 904L and 904R of Patent Document 2 are arranged in parallel along the left and right directions of the vehicle, a plurality of light emitting diode light sources 906, 906, 906, and 906 are arranged side by side. The size ensures a light emitting area. That is, since a plurality of light emitting diode light sources 906, 906, 906, and 906 are arranged in parallel along the left-right direction of the vehicle, visibility is ensured across the vehicle in the left-right direction and a long size.

As described above, in Patent Document 2, the left and right rear turn lights 904L and 904R are attached to the rear fender 903, and the left and right rear turn lights 904L and 904R are not attached to the rear housings 902L and 902R. The rear cases 902L and 902R are formed to be relatively small.

On the other hand, it is attempted to realize further miniaturization of the left and right rear turn signals 904L and 904R disposed on the rear fender 903 while ensuring a light emitting area. However, in the direction indicators 904L and 904R having a plurality of light emitting diode light sources 906, 906, 906, and 906 as in Patent Document 2, the plurality of light emitting diode light sources 906, 906, 906, and 906 are used to configure the light sources. The waiting substrate 905 occupies a certain size of space, so further miniaturization of the rear direction lamp is limited.

The present invention has been made in view of such a situation, and an object thereof is to provide a straddle-type vehicle, which can ensure a leftward direction even if the rear housing is formed to be relatively small and the left and right rear turn signals are formed to be smaller. The visibility of the left and right rear extension lights and the right and left rear extension lights that extend to the right are visible in the vehicle width direction, thereby improving the visibility of the left and right rear lights.

In order to solve this problem, the inventor of the present invention first wanted to reduce the size of the light emitting diode light source arranged behind the rear fender and use a light guide member to form the rear direction light into a smaller size and ensure the rear Luminous area of the direction light.

Specifically, the inventors have tried to make only one light-emitting diode light source, reduce the relatively space-consuming substrate and a plurality of light-emitting diode light sources arranged on the substrate, and thereby miniaturize the rear direction light. In addition, if the number of light emitting diode light sources is reduced, the light emitting area will be reduced accordingly. Therefore, it is desirable to use light emitted from only one light emitting diode light source to cause the light guide member to emit light, thereby ensuring the light emitting area. Compared with a plurality of light-emitting diode light sources and a substrate on which a plurality of light-emitting diode light sources are arranged, the space for installing the light guide member is small, so that the rear turn signal can be made smaller.

However, when only one light-emitting diode light source is used and a light-guiding member is used, as shown in FIG. 15 (a), the longer the light-guiding member LGU ', the farther away from the light-emitting diode light source S'. The weaker the light at the location. In addition, there is also a problem that even considering the directivity of the light of the light emitting diode light source S ', the light of the light emitting diode light source S' is made consistent with the direction light after extending in the left-right direction of the vehicle. Pointing to the left or right, it is also difficult to make the longer light guide member LGU 'emit light perfectly.

On the other hand, the inventors have also studied the recognizability of the left and right direction lights on the premise of considering the light emission characteristics of the direction lights after using the light guide member. Previously, as long as the left and right rear direction lights are separated from each other, there is no problem in the recognition of the left and right rear direction lights, but the inventors have conducted research to further improve the left and right rear direction lights.

As described above, when only one light-emitting diode light source is used as the light source of the left and right rear direction indicators, the light guide member that is long in the left-right direction of the vehicle has a distance from the light source, that is, the light-emitting diode. The polarized light source is disposed at the end on the opposite side, and it is difficult to emit light, so it is impossible to make the longer light guide member emit light perfectly. The inventors have studied the recognition of the left and right direction indicators that cannot make a long light guide member emit light perfectly, and the results are as follows.

Generally, compared with the case where the left and right rear direction lights are arranged adjacently, when the left and right rear direction lights are arranged separately, it is considered that the situation is easier to distinguish between the left and right, so that the visibility is higher. In addition, compared with the case where the bright portions are arranged adjacently, in the case where the bright portions are arranged separately, the left and right direction indicators are more distinguishable.

Therefore, the inventor has a concept that, as shown in FIG. 15 (b), in order to improve the visibility of the left and right rear direction indicators 30L ', 30R', the light emitting diode light source S 'is arranged in the left rear direction. The left end of the lamp 30L '(outside of the vehicle width direction), and the left rear turn signal 30L' is provided so that the light of the light emitting diode light source S 'is from the left end of the left rear direction lamp 30L' (the vehicle width direction The outer end portion) is disposed so as to point toward the right end portion (the inner end portion in the vehicle width direction) of the left rear turn signal 30L ′. will The light emitting diode light source S 'is disposed at the right end portion (outside of the vehicle width direction) of the right rear direction light 30R', and the right rear direction light 30R 'is provided so that the light of the light emitting diode light source S' is from the right rear The right end portion (outer end portion in the vehicle width direction) of the turn signal 30R 'is directed toward the left end portion (inner end portion in the vehicle width direction) of the right rear turn signal 30R'.

Thereby, the light emitting diode light sources S 'of the left and right rear turn signals 30L' and 30R 'are separately arranged in the left-right direction of the vehicle, so the bright portions are separately arranged. As a result, as shown in FIG. 15 (c), the bright parts of the left and right rear direction indicators 30L 'and 30R' are arranged adjacent to each other, that is, the light emitting diode light source S 'is placed on the left rear direction indicator. 30L 'right end (inner end of the vehicle width direction), the light emitting diode light source S' is placed at the left rear end of the right direction indicator 30R '(inner end of the vehicle width direction). The visibility of the direction indicators 30L 'and 30R' is improved.

However, the rear fender 20 'provided with left and right rear turn signals 30L' and 30R 'has a smaller size in the left-right direction of the vehicle than the rear housing. Therefore, in order to improve the visibility of the left and right rear direction indicators 30L 'and 30R', when the left and right rear direction indicators 30L 'and 30R' are formed so as to have a longer size in the left and right directions of the vehicle, The left end of the left rear turn signal 30L 'and the right end of the right rear turn signal 30R' protrude from the left edge 20L 'and the right edge 20R' of the rear fender 20 ', respectively. The light guide member LGU 'of the left rear turn signal 30L' and the light guide member LGU 'of the right rear turn signal 30R' also protrude from the left edge 20L 'and the right edge 20R' of the rear fender 20 ', respectively. As a result, when the vehicle is traveling, it is difficult to block the wind that collides with the left and right rear turn signals, so that the traveling wind easily collides with the left and right rear turn signals 30L 'and 30R'. The left and right rear turn signals 30L 'and 30R' protrude from the rear fender 20 ', because the left end of the left rear turn signal 30L' and the right end of the right rear turn signal 30R 'are not provided in the rear fender. The plate 20 'is also difficult to be firmly fixed against the driving wind. As a result, the left and right direction indicators 30L ′ and 30R ′ are easily vibrated by the traveling wind.

Furthermore, when the light guide member LGU 'is used, the left and right sides can be moved behind The direction indicators 30L 'and 30R' are formed relatively small, but if the left and right direction indicators 30L 'and 30R' are formed relatively small, the vibration becomes large due to the driving wind. As a result, the durability of the light-emitting diode light source S 'disposed at the left end of the left rear turn signal 30L' and the right end of the right rear turn signal 30R 'is affected. Therefore, the left and right rear turn signals 30L are affected. ', 30R' is not ideal for miniaturization.

In order to solve the problems related to the vibration of the left and right direction lights, the inventor once tried to make the left and right direction lights 30L ′ and 30R ′ shorter as shown in FIG. 15 (d), thereby reducing the influence of the driving wind. . However, compared with the left and right rear direction indicators 30L 'and 30R' which are formed longer in the left-right direction of the vehicle as in Patent Document 2, the light emitting areas of the left and right rear direction indicators 30L 'and 30R' become smaller. There is still room for improvement in recognition.

Therefore, the inventor drastically changed his idea, taking into account the use of the left and right rear direction signal vibrations caused by the driving wind which is considered to be the problem. That is, the vibration of the left and right rear direction lights caused by the driving wind is utilized flexibly, and the left and right rear direction lights vibrate up and down to increase the afterglow effect, thereby improving the visibility of the left and right rear direction lights. .

In more detail, there have been attempts to make the left and right rear direction lights protrude from the left and right edges of the rear fender, respectively, and actively collide with the driving wind, thereby making the left and right rear direction lights more susceptible to vibration. In particular, it is desirable to make the left and right rear turn signals insufficiently light-emitting, that is, the ends opposite to the arrangement position of the light-emitting diode light sources, to be easily vibrated by the driving wind. If the part with insufficient light emission is further vibrated, the afterglow effect is increased, and thus the range of light emission can be made larger visually.

This can make up for the shortcomings of insufficient light emission of the left and right direction lamps. That is, even if the left and right rear direction indicators with light guide members whose positions are far away from the light emitting diode light source are weakened, the afterglow effect can provide the observer with insufficient light emission and sufficient light emission. The visual impression of the same luminous range.

In addition, the left and right direction indicators have a "blinking" feature. Light on and off are prone to afterglow. By combining the afterglow effect caused by the flicker with the afterglow effect caused by the amplitude, the effect of making up for the shortcomings of insufficient luminescence can be further improved. In addition, the light-emitting diode light source is provided in a state where the light-emitting diode light source is disposed at the outer end (the left end of the left rear turn signal and the right end of the right rear turn light) which is impacted by the driving wind. When the inner end portion (the right end portion of the left rear turn signal and the left end portion of the right rear turn signal) is difficult to be hit by the driving wind, better durability of the light emitting diode light source can be obtained. That is, the inventors flexibly used the characteristics of the left and right direction lights, and regarded the vibration caused by the traveling wind, which was originally regarded as a disadvantage, as an advantage, and thus came up with the present invention.

Specifically, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the saddle-riding type vehicle of the present invention includes a vehicle body frame, a rear shell, a rear wheel, a rear fender, a left rear turn signal, and a right rear turn signal. The rear shell is supported by the vehicle body frame and has a lower edge extending rearward. The rear wheels are arranged below the rear shell. The rear fender is connected to the rear shell, and extends to a position lower than the rear end of the lower edge of the rear shell, and further to the rear and lower than the upper end of the rear wheel. The left rear turn signal is disposed on the left side of the rear fender. The right rear direction indicator is disposed on the right side of the rear fender. The left rear direction indicator has only one left light emitting diode light source, a left light emitting diode substrate, a rod-shaped left light guide member, and a left receiving member. The left light emitting diode substrate is used to arrange a left light emitting diode light source. The left light guide member transmits light emitted from the left light emitting diode light source, and extends toward the left in the left-right direction of the vehicle. The left housing member has a left case portion that allows light from the left light guide member to pass through. The right rear direction light has only one right light emitting diode light source, a right light emitting diode substrate, a rod-shaped right light guide member, and a right accommodation member. The right light-emitting diode substrate is used to arrange a right-light-emitting diode light source. The right light guide member transmits light emitted from the right light emitting diode light source, and extends toward the right in the left-right direction of the vehicle. The right housing member has a right housing portion that transmits light from the right light guide member. The left light-emitting diode light source of the left rear direction light is pointing to the left and right of the vehicle Left in the direction, and is arranged on the left light-emitting diode substrate in such a manner that light exits from the right end portion of the left light-guiding member toward the left end portion of the left light-guiding member, wherein the left light-emitting diode substrate is arranged on the The right side of the left rear direction indicator. The right light-emitting diode light source of the right rear direction light is directed to the right in the left-right direction of the vehicle, and is arranged on the right light-emitting diode in such a manner that light is emitted from the left end of the right light guide member toward the right end of the right light guide member. A body substrate, wherein the right light-emitting diode substrate is disposed on a left side portion of the right rear turn signal. The left light guide member of the left rear direction light guides light emitted from the left light emitting diode light source from the right end portion of the left light guide member toward the left end portion of the left light guide member. The right light guide member of the right rear direction light guides light emitted from the right light emitting diode light source from the left end portion of the right light guide member toward the right end portion of the right light guide member. The left-right direction of the left-receiving member of the vehicle has a larger dimension in the left-right direction than the left-receiving member of the vehicle in the vertical direction. The size of the vehicle in the right direction of the right housing member of the right rear direction indicator is larger than the size of the vehicle in the right direction. The left and right direction of the left light guide member of the left light guide member is larger than the left and right direction of the vehicle. The size of the vehicle in the left-right direction of the right light-guiding member of the right rear direction lamp is larger than the size of the vehicle in the right-left direction of the light-guiding member. The right side portion of the left rear direction indicator is mounted on the left side portion of the rear fender. The left side of the left rear turn signal is not attached to the left side of the rear fender. The left part of the right rear direction indicator is mounted on the right part of the rear fender. The right side portion of the right rear direction indicator is not mounted on the right side portion of the rear fender. In rear view, the left end of the left receiving member of the left rear direction light and the left end of the left light guiding member of the left rear direction light are arranged at the rear end of the rear fender which is located at the same height as the left rear direction light. After the middle, the left edge of the fender is more to the left. In rear view, the right end of the right receiving member of the right rear turn signal and the right end of the right light guide member of the right rear turn signal are arranged at the rear end of the rear fender which is located at the same height as the right rear turn signal. After the middle, the right edge of the fender is more to the right.

According to the above aspect, in the straddle-type vehicle of the present invention, a rear mudguard for splash-proof mud is formed, which extends obliquely downward from the rear end of the lower edge of the rear shell and extends rearward. The left and right rear direction indicators are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the rear fender. Therefore, the left and right rear turn signals are not installed in the rear case. With this, even if the left and right rear turn signals are formed in order to ensure the viewing angle of the rear turn lights and ensure the light emitting area across the vehicle in the left-right direction and a longer size, the rear shell can be made smaller. .

In addition, the straddle type vehicle of the present invention is formed such that the dimensions of the vehicle's left-right and right-rear direction indicator respective housing members and light guide members in the left-right direction are larger than those in the vertical direction of the vehicle. Thereby, a light emitting area can be secured over a long and long dimension in the left-right direction of the vehicle.

Furthermore, in order to maintain the light emitting area across the vehicle in the left-right direction and a longer size, and to make the rear turn signal more compact, so that there is only one light emitting diode light source instead of a plurality of light emitting diode light sources, And using a rod-shaped light guide member, the light emitted by the light emitting diode light source is transmitted to the left or right. Specifically, in the straddle-type vehicle of the present invention, the left rear direction indicator has: only one left light emitting diode light source; a left light emitting diode substrate for configuring the left light emitting diode light source; A left light guide member that transmits light emitted from the left light emitting diode light source and extends toward the left in the left-right direction of the vehicle; and a left housing member that has a left housing portion that allows light from the left light guide member to pass through. The right rear direction light has: only one right-emitting diode light source; a right-emitting diode substrate for configuring the right-emitting diode light source; a rod-shaped right light-guiding member that conducts from the right-emitting diode light source The emitted light extends toward the right in the left-right direction of the vehicle; and the right housing member has a right housing portion that allows the light of the right light guide member to pass through.

Therefore, for the left and right rear direction lights, there is only one light emitting diode light source. The substrate that requires relatively more space and a plurality of light emitting diode light sources arranged on the substrate are reduced, thereby enabling the left and right rear directions. Miniaturization of lamps. In addition, if the number of light-emitting diode light sources is reduced, the light-emitting area will be reduced accordingly. Therefore, by using light emitted from only one light-emitting diode light source, the light guide members on the left and right are illuminated, thereby maintaining the light guide members. Glowing area.

The space required to set the left and right light guide members is smaller than the substrates of the plurality of light emitting diode light sources and the plurality of light emitting diode light sources, so it can be maintained across the vehicle in the left and right direction and for a longer size. Light emitting area, and the left and right direction indicators are made smaller.

On the other hand, in general, when there is only one light emitting diode light source and it is used for a light guide member that is long in the left-right direction of the vehicle, even considering the directivity of the light of the light emitting diode light source, After extending along the left and right directions of the vehicle, the direction lights are consistent, so that the light direction of the light emitting diode light source is directed to the left or right, and it is difficult to reach the light guide on the opposite side from the position of the light emitting diode light source. The ends of the members make it difficult to make the longer light guide members emit light perfectly.

In view of this, in the straddle-type vehicle of the present invention, the left light-emitting diode light source of the left rear direction indicator is directed to the left in the left-right direction of the vehicle, and the light guide is directed from the right end of the left light guide member to the left The way in which the left end of the component emits light is arranged on the left light emitting diode substrate arranged on the right side of the left rear direction light. The right light-emitting diode light source of the right rear direction indicator light is directed to the right in the left-right direction of the vehicle, and the light is emitted from the left end of the right light guide member toward the right end of the right light guide member in the right rear direction. A right light emitting diode substrate arranged on the left side of the lamp. In addition, the left light guide member of the left rear direction light guides light emitted from the left light emitting diode light source from the right end portion of the left light guide member toward the left end portion of the left light guide member. The right light guide member of the right rear direction light guides light emitted from the right light emitting diode light source from the left end portion of the right light guide member toward the right end portion of the right light guide member. Thereby, the left and right rear direction lights are insufficiently lighted, that is, the end opposite to the arrangement position of the light emitting diode light source is the outer end portion of the left and right rear direction lights (that is, the left rear direction). The left end of the lamp and the right end of the right rear direction indicator), the light emitting diode light source and the light guide member of the rear direction indicator are arranged.

In the straddle-type vehicle of the present invention, the right side portion of the left rear turn signal is mounted on the left side of the rear fender, and the left side portion of the left rear turn signal is not mounted on the left side of the rear fender. The left part of the right rear turn signal is installed on the right side of the rear fender, and the right part of the right rear turn signal is not installed on the right of the rear fender. In addition, the left end of the left rear turn signal protrudes to the left from the left edge of the rear fender. In more detail, when viewed from the rear, the left end of the left receiving member of the left rear direction light and the left end of the left light guiding member of the left rear direction light are arranged in a rear stop which is located at the same height as the left rear direction light. The left edge of the rear fender in the rear end of the mudboard is more to the left. In addition, the right end of the right rear turn signal protrudes to the right from the right edge of the rear fender. In more detail, when viewed from the rear, the right end of the right accommodation member of the right rear direction light and the right end of the right light guide member of the right rear direction light are arranged in the rear stop which is located at the same height as the right rear direction light. The right edge of the rear fender in the rear end of the mudboard is more to the right. Thereby, the left rear direction light uses a right end portion of the left rear direction light as a fixed end, and a left end portion of the left rear direction light as a free end and is mounted on the rear fender. The right rear direction light uses a left end portion of the right rear direction light as a fixed end, and a right end portion of the right rear direction light as a free end and is mounted on the rear fender. Therefore, the left and right direction indicators are not firmly fixed to resist the driving wind, so it is easy to vibrate by the driving wind. In addition, since the left rear direction light protrudes to the left from the rear fender, and the right rear direction light protrudes to the right from the rear fender, it is possible to make the Part of the left and right rear direction indicators actively collide with the driving wind, and the left and right rear direction indicators further vibrate. In particular, it is possible to easily vibrate the left and right rear direction lights by the driving wind, that is, the end portion on the opposite side from the arrangement position of the light emitting diode light source. If the part where the light emission is insufficient is more likely to vibrate, the afterglow effect becomes larger, so that the light emission range can be made larger visually.

Furthermore, it is because only one light emitting diode light source and the substrate for arranging it are arranged at the inner ends of the left and right direction indicators, that is, the right and left ends of the left and right direction indicators. The left end of the rear direction indicator can make the outer ends of the left and right rear direction indicators, that is, the left end of the left rear direction indicator and the right end of the right rear direction indicator lighter. Therefore, the left end portion of the left rear turn signal can be made to vibrate up and down more than the right end portion of the left rear turn signal. In addition, the right end portion of the right rear direction indicator can be made to vibrate up and down more than the left end portion of the right rear direction indicator.

Therefore, the left end portion of the left rear direction light and the right end portion of the right rear direction light are separated from the installation position of the light emitting diode light source. Therefore, even if the light emission is insufficient, the afterglow effect caused by the vertical vibration can be used to give The observer brings a visual impression having the same light emitting range as the right end portion of the left rear direction light and the left end portion of the right rear direction light. In other words, it is possible to give the observer the visual impression that the weaker part of the left and right direction lights becomes better by the afterglow effect.

Thereby, it is possible to suppress the decrease in the visibility of the left and right direction lights. With regard to the decrease in the recognition, making only one light-emitting diode light source and forming the light guide member longer will reduce the area that perfectly emits light. , Which in turn will cause a decrease in the above recognition.

Furthermore, even if the left and right rear turn signals are made smaller by using a light guide member, the light emitting diode light sources are arranged at the right end of the left rear turn signal (the inner end in the vehicle width direction). And the left end of the right rear turn signal (inner end of the vehicle width direction), and achieve the effect that even if the left and right rear turn signals are vibrated in the up and down direction by the driving wind, the light emitting diode can be reduced. Influence of the durability of the volume light source. Therefore, in order to reduce the influence of the driving wind on the durability of the light emitting diode light source, the left and right direction indicators need to be shorter. As a result, the visibility of the left and right direction indicators in the vehicle width direction can be ensured, thereby improving the visibility.

Therefore, even if the rear case is formed to be relatively small, and the left and right rear direction indicators are formed to be smaller, the effect of improving the visibility of the left and right rear direction indicators can be achieved.

Preferably, in the straddle type vehicle of the present invention, when viewed from the rear, the left end portion of the left receiving member of the left rear direction light and the left end portion of the left light guiding member of the left rear direction light are disposed relatively to the left. The left edge of the rear fender in the rear end of the rear fender at the same height and located more forward than the left rear direction flank is further to the left. In rear view, the right end portion of the right receiving member of the right rear direction light and the right end portion of the right light guide member of the right rear direction light are arranged at the same height as the right rear direction light and located more than the right rear direction light. The right edge of the rear fender in the rear end of the front rear fender is closer to the right.

In this case, the left end portion of the left rear direction indicator can be disposed so as to protrude further from the left edge of the rear fender. In addition, the right end portion of the right rear turn signal can be disposed so as to protrude further from the right edge of the rear fender. Thereby, the left and right direction indicators can be further vibrated by colliding with the driving wind more actively, so that the afterglow effect can be further improved.

According to the above aspect, in the straddle-type vehicle 1 of the present invention, a rear mudguard 13 for splash mud is formed, which extends obliquely downward from the rear end of the lower edge 12D of the rear shell 12 and extends rearward. The left and right rear turn signals 30 and 40 are respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the rear fender 13. Therefore, the left and right rear turn signals 30 and 40 are not attached to the rear case 12. Thereby, even if the left and right rear turn signals 30 and 40 are formed so as to ensure the viewing angle of the rear turn lights so as to ensure the light emitting area across the vehicle in the left and right directions and a long size, the rear shell 12 Formed relatively small.

Moreover, the straddle-type vehicle 1 of the present invention is formed such that the dimensions of the left and right rear lights 30 and 40 of the respective housing members 30ST and 40ST and the light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU of the vehicle are larger than those of the vehicle in the vertical direction. Thereby, a light emitting area can be secured over a long and long dimension in the left-right direction of the vehicle.

Furthermore, in order to maintain the light emitting area across the vehicle in the left-right direction and a longer size, and to make the rear turn signal more compact, so that there is only one light emitting diode light source instead of a plurality of light emitting diode light sources, And using a rod-shaped light guide member, the light emitted by the light emitting diode light source is transmitted to the left or right. Specifically, in the straddle-type vehicle 1 of the present invention, the left rear turn signal 30 has: only one left light emitting diode light source 30S; and the left light emitting diode base The plate 30B is provided with a left light emitting diode light source 30S; the rod-shaped left light guiding member 30LGU conducts light emitted from the left light emitting diode light source 30S and extends toward the left in the left-right direction of the vehicle; and The left housing member 30ST includes a left housing portion 30C that allows light from the left light guide member 30LGU to pass through.

Thereby, for the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40, there is only one light emitting diode light source 30S and 40S, and a substrate that requires relatively more space and a plurality of light emitting diode light sources arranged on the substrate are reduced, thereby The left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be miniaturized. In addition, if the number of light emitting diode light sources is reduced, the light emitting area will be correspondingly reduced. Therefore, by using light emitted from only one light emitting diode light source 30S, 40S, the left and right light guide members 30LGU, 40LGU are used. Light is emitted, whereby the light emitting area can be maintained.

The space required to set the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU is smaller than that of a plurality of light emitting diode light sources and a substrate configured with a plurality of light emitting diode light sources, so it can span and be longer in the left and right directions of the vehicle. The light emitting area is maintained in size, and the left and right rear turn signals 30 and 40 are made smaller.

On the other hand, in general, when there is only one light emitting diode light source and it is used for a light guide member that is long in the left-right direction of the vehicle, even considering the directivity of the light of the light emitting diode light source, After extending along the left and right directions of the vehicle, the direction lights are consistent, so that the light direction of the light emitting diode light source is directed to the left or right, and it is difficult to reach the light guide on the opposite side from the position of the light emitting diode light source.

The right rear turn signal 40 uses the left end of the right rear turn signal 40 as a fixed end, and the right rear end of the right rear turn signal 40 as a free end and is attached to the rear fender 13. Therefore, the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 are not firmly fixed against the driving wind, so it is easy to vibrate by the driving wind. In addition, since the left rear turn signal 30 protrudes to the left from the rear fender 13 and the right rear turn signal 40 protrudes to the right from the rear fender 13, when the vehicle is traveling, it is possible to make the rear The left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 of the protruding portion of the mud plate 13 actively collide with the driving wind, and the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 vibrate further. In particular, it is possible to make the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 insufficiently light-emitting, that is, the ends opposite to the positions of the light-emitting diode light sources 30S and 40S, which are easily vibrated by the traveling wind. If the part where the light emission is insufficient is more likely to vibrate, the afterglow effect becomes larger, so that the light emission range can be made larger visually.

Furthermore, only one light-emitting diode light source 30S and 40S and the substrates 30B and 40B for disposing the same are arranged at the inner ends of the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40, that is, the left rear direction indicator 30. The right end and the left end of the right rear turn signal 40, so that the left and right rear lights 30, 40 outside the end, that is, the left end of the left rear turn signal 30 and the right end of the right rear turn signal 40 are lighter. . Therefore, the left end portion of the left rear turn signal 30 can be made to vibrate up and down more than the right end portion of the left rear turn signal 30. In addition, the right end portion of the right rear turn signal 40 can be made smaller than the right rear turn signal 40. The left end of it, vibrates more up and down.

Therefore, the left end portion of the left rear turn signal 30 and the right end portion of the right rear turn signal 40 are separated from the installation positions of the light emitting diode light sources 30S and 40S. Therefore, even if the light is insufficient, it can be generated by vibrations up and down. The afterglow effect gives the observer a visual impression having the same light emitting range as the right end portion of the left rear direction light 30 and the left end portion of the right rear direction light 40. That is, it is possible to give the observer a visual impression that the weaker part of the left and right direction lights 30 and 40 becomes weaker by the afterglow effect.

Thereby, it is possible to suppress the decrease in the visibility of the left and right direction lights 30 and 40. With regard to the decrease in the recognition, there is only one light emitting diode light source 30S, 40S, and the light guide members 30LGU, 40LGU are formed relatively. Longer will lead to a reduction in the area that perfectly emits light, which in turn will cause the above-mentioned reduction in visibility.

Furthermore, even if the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 are formed to be relatively small by using the light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU, the light emitting diode light sources 30S and 40S are respectively arranged at the right ends of the left rear direction indicator 30. (The inner end portion in the vehicle width direction) and the left end portion (the inner end portion in the vehicle width direction) of the right rear direction indicator light 40 to achieve the effect that even if the left and right rear direction indicators 30, 40 vibration in the vertical direction can also reduce the impact on the durability of the light emitting diode light sources 30S, 40S. Therefore, in order to reduce the influence of the driving wind on the durability of the light emitting diode light sources 30S and 40S, the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 need to be made shorter. As a result, the visibility of the left and right rear turn signals 30 and 40 in the vehicle width direction can be ensured, thereby improving the visibility.

Therefore, even if the rear case 12 is formed to be relatively small, and the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 are formed to be smaller, the effect of improving the visibility of the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 can be achieved.

(5) In a preferred form of the straddle-type vehicle 1 according to this embodiment, the left end of the left accommodation member 30ST of the left rear direction indicator 30 is viewed from the top when the rear case 12 is removed. And the left end of the left light guide member 30LGU of the left rear turn signal 30 is disposed more to the left than the left edge of the rear fender 13. The right end of the right accommodation member 40ST of the right rear turn signal 40 and the right end of the right light guide member 40LGU of the right rear turn signal 40 are disposed more to the right than the right edge of the rear fender 13.

Therefore, by the afterglow effect, the viewer can be given a visual impression that the weaker part of the light emitted from the ends of the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 becomes better. Therefore, even if the rear case 12 is formed to be relatively small, and the left and right rear turn signals 30 and 40 are further reduced, the effect of improving the visibility of the left and right rear turn signals 30 and 40 can be achieved.

(6) In a preferred form of the saddle-riding vehicle 1 according to this embodiment, the rear case 12 further includes a left case 12L, a right case 12R, and a rear case disposed between the left case 12L and the right case 12R. 12T. In a plan view, the left end of the left accommodation member 30ST of the left rear direction light 30 and the left end of the left light guide member 30LGU of the left rear direction light 30 are disposed further to the left than the left case 12L. The right end of the right housing member 40ST of the right rear direction light 40 and the right end of the right light guide member 40LGU of the right rear direction light 40 are disposed further to the right than the right housing 12R.

The weaker luminous parts of the outer ends of the rear turn signals 30 and 40 further improve the visual impression. Therefore, it is possible to achieve the effect that the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be further improved.

(7) Furthermore, in a preferred form of the saddle-riding vehicle 1 of this embodiment, in the rear left direction light 30, the size of the left accommodation member 30ST in the left-right direction of the vehicle is larger than the left accommodation member 30ST when viewed from the rear. The size of the vehicle in the up-and-down direction, and the size of the vehicle in the right-and-left direction of the right storage member 40ST in the right rear direction indicator 40 is greater than the size of the vehicle in the right-rear member 40ST in the vertical direction.

In this case, the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 can be formed to be more slender in the left and right directions of the vehicle, respectively. Thereby, the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be formed smaller in the vertical direction. In addition, when the left and right rear lights 30 and 40 collide with the driving wind, the left and right rear lights 30 and 40 are more likely to vibrate than the left and right rear lights 30 and 40, so that the afterglow effect can be further improved.

In this case, the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 may be formed to be relatively slender in the front-rear direction of the vehicle, respectively. Therefore, the mounting rigidity of the left and right rear direction lights 30 and 40 when the rear fender 13 is installed is weaker than the front of the vehicle when the rear fender 13 is installed. The mounting in the rear direction is rigid, so the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 are more likely to vibrate in the up and down direction. This can further improve the afterglow effect. As a result, it is possible to give the observer a better visual impression by the effect of afterglow light on the weaker part of the light emission outside the left and right rear direction indicators 30, 40. Therefore, it is possible to achieve the effect that the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be further improved.

(9) Furthermore, in a preferred form of the saddle-riding type vehicle 1 of this embodiment, a rear lamp 12 is provided with a tail light TL. In rear view, the left rear turn signal 30 is located further below the lower end of the tail light TL, and is located further left than the left edge of the tail light TL. When viewed from the rear, the right rear turn signal 40 is located further below the lower end of the tail light TL, and is positioned further to the right than the right edge of the tail light TL.

In this case, since the top ends of the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 are respectively disposed at positions separated from the tail light TL, it can be distinguished with the naked eye and the tail light TL. When the left and right direction lights 30 and 40 vibrate more in the up and down direction, the visual impression is given to the observer, that is, by the afterglow effect, the weaker parts of the left and right direction lights 30 and 40 become better. The visual impression is more obvious. This can achieve the effect that the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be further improved.

(10) Furthermore, in a preferred form of the straddle-type vehicle 1 of this embodiment, in the left rear direction indicator 30, the right end portion of the left light guide member 30LGU is mounted on the right side portion of the left accommodation member 30ST, and the left guide The left end portion of the light member 30LGU is attached to the left side portion of the left receiving member 30ST. In the right rear direction indicator 40, a left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU is mounted on a left side portion of the right storage member 40ST, and a right end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU is mounted on a right side portion of the right storage member 40ST.

In this case, the left and right ends of the left light guide member 30LGU are mounted on the left rear turn signal 30. The left and right ends of the right light guide member 40LGU are mounted on the right rear turn signal 40. because Therefore, when the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 are vibrated by actively colliding with the driving wind, the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU also vibrate with the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40. Vibrate up and down at the same frequency. This can further improve the afterglow effect. As a result, it is possible to give the observer a better visual impression of the weaker parts of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 by the afterglow effect. Therefore, it is possible to achieve the effect that the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be further improved.

In the right rear direction indicator 40, the left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU is installed on the left side portion of the right accommodation member 40ST, and the right end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU is not installed on the right side portion of the right accommodation member 40ST.

In this case, the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU cannot be vibrated at the same frequency as the left and right rear direction lights 30 and 40, but the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU are cantilevered respectively. The left and right housing members 30ST, 40ST are relatively vibrating relative to the up and down directions of the left and right direction indicators 30, 40. As a result, the outer ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU are more likely to vibrate. Thereby, the afterglow effect can be further improved. Therefore, by using the afterglow effect, it is possible to give the observer a better visual impression of the weaker luminous parts in the outer ends of the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40. Therefore, the effect of further improving the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be achieved.

(12) Also, in a preferred form of the saddle-riding vehicle 1 of this embodiment, in the left rear direction indicator 30, the size of the left end portion of the left light guide member 30LGU in the vertical direction of the vehicle is larger than that of the left light guide member 30LGU. The right end is small. In the right rear direction light 40, the right light guide member The vertical dimension of the right end portion of the 40LGU is smaller than the left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU.

In this case, the free ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU (the left end of the left light guide member 30LGU and the right end of the right light guide member 40LGU) can be formed more fixed ends (the left light guide member 30LGU The right end portion and the left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU are light, so vibrations in the up-down direction of the free end are easy. As a result, the outer ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU are more likely to vibrate. Thereby, the afterglow effect can be further improved. Therefore, by using the afterglow effect, it is possible to give the observer a weaker luminous part in the outer ends of the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 to further improve the visual impression. . Therefore, the effect of further improving the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be achieved.

(13) Furthermore, in a preferred form of the saddle-riding vehicle 1 of this embodiment, in the left rear direction indicator 30, the size of the vehicle in the front-rear direction at the left end of the left light guide member 30LGU is larger than the left light guide member described above. The right end of 30LGU is small. In the right rear direction indicator light 40, the size of the vehicle in the front-rear direction at the right end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU is smaller than the left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU.

In this case, the free ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU (the left end of the left light guide member 30LGU and the right end of the right light guide member 40LGU) can be formed more fixed ends (the left light guide member 30LGU The right end portion and the left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU are light, so vibrations in the up-down direction of the free end are easy. As a result, the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU are more likely to vibrate. Thereby, the afterglow effect can be further improved. Therefore, the left and right rear direction lights 30 and 40 can be given a weaker luminous part of the viewer with a better visual impression by the afterglow effect. Therefore, the effect of further improving the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be achieved.

(14) Furthermore, in a preferred form of the saddle-riding vehicle 1 of this embodiment, a cross section of the left end portion of the left light guide member 30LGU in the left rear direction indicator 30 is cut along a plane extending in the up-down direction. The area is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the right end portion of the left light guide member 30LGU. In the right rear direction indicator lamp 40, the cross-sectional area of the right end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU in a plane extending in the up-down direction is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU.

In this case, the free ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU (the left end of the left light guide member 30LGU and the right end of the right light guide member 40LGU) can be formed more fixed ends (the left light guide member 30LGU The right end portion and the left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU are light, so vibrations in the up-down direction of the free end are easy. As a result, the outer ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU are more likely to vibrate. Thereby, the afterglow effect can be further improved. Therefore, by using the afterglow effect, it is possible to give the observer a weaker luminous part in the outer ends of the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 to further improve the visual impression. . Therefore, the effect of further improving the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be achieved.

(15) Furthermore, in a preferred form of the saddle-riding vehicle 1 of this embodiment, in the left rear direction indicator 30, the maximum vertical dimension of the left light guide member 30LGU is larger than the right end of the left light guide member 30LGU The size of the vehicle in the vertical direction. In the right rear direction indicator 40, the maximum size of the vehicle in the vertical direction of the right light guide member 40LGU is larger than the size of the vehicle in the vertical direction at the left end portion of the right light guide member 40LGU.

In this case, the dimensions of the vehicle in the vertical direction with the fixed ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU (the right end of the left light guide member 30LGU and the left end of the right light guide member 40LGU) are the same as those of the left and right guides. Compared with the largest of the light members 30LGU and 40LGU, the light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU that are closer to the fixed end can be made lighter, and the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU can be made lighter. Fixed end of the left and right The mounting rigidity of the vehicle in the up-down direction is set to be smaller when the capacity members 30ST and 40ST are installed. Therefore, vibration of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU in the up-down direction becomes easy. As a result, the outer ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU are more likely to vibrate. Thereby, the afterglow effect can be further improved. Therefore, by using the afterglow effect, it is possible to give the observer a weaker luminous part in the outer ends of the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40 to further improve the visual impression. . Therefore, the effect of further improving the visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40 can be achieved.

(16) In a preferred form of the straddle-type vehicle 1 of this embodiment, in rear view, in the left rear direction indicator light 30, the size of the left light guide member 30LGU in the left-right direction is larger than the left light guide member 30LGU The maximum size of the vehicle in the up-down direction. In the rear view, in the right rear direction indicator 40, the size of the right light guide member 40LGU in the left-right direction of the vehicle is larger than the maximum size of the right light guide member 40LGU in the vertical direction of the vehicle.

In this case, the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU may be formed to be more slender in the left-right direction of the vehicle, respectively. Therefore, when the left and right direction lights 30 and 40 collide with the driving wind, the outer ends of the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU are longer than the left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU. The part is more susceptible to vibration, so it can further improve the afterglow effect. As a result, it is possible to give the observer a better visual impression by the effect of afterglow light on the weaker part of the light emission outside the left and right rear direction indicators 30, 40. Therefore, it is possible to achieve the effect of further improving the light emitting area and visibility of the left and right direction indicators 30 and 40.

(17) In a preferred form of the straddle-type vehicle 1 of this embodiment, in the left rear direction indicator 30, the size of the left end portion of the left accommodation member 30ST in the up-down direction is smaller than that of the right end portion of the left accommodation member 30ST. Vehicle up and down dimensions. In the right rear direction indicator 40, the size of the vehicle in the vertical direction at the right end portion of the right storage member 40ST is smaller than the size of the vehicle in the vertical direction at the left end portion of the right storage member 40ST.

In this case, the left storage member 30ST of the left rear direction light 30 and the right storage member 40ST of the right rear direction light 40 can be formed in the left and right directions of the vehicle according to the shapes of the elongated left and right light guide members 30LGU and 40LGU. To be more slender. Thereby, the left and right rear direction lights 30 and 40 can be made smaller in the up-down direction, and the free ends of the left and right rear direction lights 30 and 40 (the left end of the left rear direction light 30 and the right rear) can be formed. The right end portion of the turn signal 40 is formed lighter than the fixed end (the right end portion of the left rear turn signal 30 and the left end portion of the right rear turn signal 40). Therefore, the free end is liable to vibrate in the vertical direction, so that the afterglow effect can be further improved. As a result, it is possible to provide the viewer with a better visual impression by the afterglow effect to give the observer a weaker part of the light emitted from the left and right rear direction indicators 30 and 40. Therefore, the effect of making the left and right rear direction lights 30 and 40 even smaller and further improving the light emitting area and visibility of the left and right rear direction lights 30 and 40 can be achieved.
