A second connection portion 33f is provided to which the second connection portion 33f is connected.
 このように構成されたイコライザ33は、図3に示すように、ケーシング56内で、短手方向が略左右方向、長手方向が略前後方向を向くと共に、平板部33aが上方、平板部33bが下方に位置するように配置される。より詳細には、前輪用ブレーキケーブル34が接続される第1接続部33rが設けられる長手方向一端側が後方、後輪用ブレーキケーブル35が接続される第2接続部33fが設けられる長手方向他端側が前方、連結部33cが設けられる短手方向一端側が左方、フランジ部33dが設けられる短手方向他端側が右方を向くように配置され、下方に位置する平板部33bからさらに下方にフランジ部33dが延びている。 As shown in FIG. 3, the equalizer 33 configured in this manner is such that the short direction is substantially horizontal and the longitudinal direction is substantially forward and backward in the casing 56, and the flat portion 33 a is upward and the flat portion 33 b is It is arranged to be located below. More specifically, one end in the longitudinal direction where the first connection portion 33r to which the front wheel brake cable 34 is connected is provided is the rear, and the other end in the longitudinal direction where the second connection portion 33f to which the rear wheel brake cable 35 is connected is provided.

 連結ロッド55の他端は、連結部33c間から一対の平板部33a,33bの間に挿入されて中間接続部33mを挿通する連結ねじ62を介して該イコライザ33に連結される。 The other end of the connecting rod 55 is connected to the equalizer 33 via a connecting screw 62 which is inserted between the connecting portion 33c and between the pair of flat plate portions 33a and 33b and which passes through the intermediate connecting portion 33m.
 而して、水平方向に長いイコライザ33を作動可能に収納すべく、ケーシング56は、自動二輪車の上下方向に沿う長さよりも前後左右方向に沿う長さを大とした横長に形成される。 Thus, in order to accommodate the horizontally long equalizer 33 in an operable manner, the casing 56 is formed to be horizontally long with a length in the front-rear and left-right directions greater than a length in the vertical direction of the motorcycle.
 またケーシング56のケース57において、右側壁57bの前後に離隔した位置には、前輪用ブレーキケーブル34および後輪用ブレーキケーブル35のアウターケーブル34a,35aが並列して固定される。すなわちアウターケーブル34a内にインナーケーブル34bが移動自在に挿通されて成る前輪用ブレーキケーブル34の一端部において、アウターケーブル34aはケース57の右側壁57bの後方に固定される。アウターケーブル34aから突出したインナーケーブル34bはケーブル挿通部57dを通ってケーシング56内に挿入され、インナーケーブル34bの端部に設けられた係止駒64がイコライザ33の第1接続部33rに連結される。 In the case 57 of the casing 56, the outer cables 34a and 35a of the front wheel brake cable 34 and the rear wheel brake cable 35 are fixed in parallel at positions separated in the front and rear of the right side wall 57b. That is, the outer cable 34a is fixed to the rear of the right side wall 57b of the case 57 at one end of the front wheel brake cable 34 formed by movably inserting the inner cable 34b into the outer cable 34a. The inner cable 34b protruding from the outer cable 34a is inserted into the casing 56 through the cable insertion portion 57d, and the locking piece 64 provided at the end of the inner cable 34b is connected to the first connection portion 33r of the equalizer 33 Ru.
 またアウターケーブル35a内にインナーケーブル35bが移動自在に挿通されて成る後輪用ブレーキケーブル35の一端部において、アウターケーブル35aはケース57の右側壁57bの前方に固定される。アウターケーブル35aから突出したインナーケーブル35bがケーブル挿通部57dを通ってケーシング56内に挿入され、インナーケーブル35bの端部に設けられた係止駒65がイコライザ33の第2接続部33fに連結される。 The outer cable 35a is fixed to the front of the right side wall 57b of the case 57 at one end of the rear wheel brake cable 35 in which the inner cable 35b is movably inserted into the outer cable 35a. The inner cable 35b protruding from the outer cable 35a is inserted into the casing 56 through the cable insertion portion 57d, and the locking piece 65 provided at the end of the inner cable 35b is connected to the second connection portion 33f of the equalizer 33 Ru.
 ところで、連動用ブレーキレバー32によるブレーキ操作力は連結ロッド55を介してイコライザ33に作用し、該イコライザ33から両ブレーキケーブル34,35を牽引する力に分配される。しかしながら、イコライザ33から両ブレーキケーブル34,35に分配される力を相互に異ならせるために、連結ロッド55のイコライザ33への連結位置からの距離を相互に異ならせた位置で両ブレーキケーブル34,35がイコライザ33に連結される。すなわち、この実施例では、連結ロッド55のイコライザ33への連結位置および前輪用ブレーキケーブル34のイコライザ33への連結位置間の距離をLとし、連結ロッド55のイコライザ33への連結位置および後輪用ブレーキケーブル35のイコライザ33への連結位置間の距離をLとしたときに、L>Lと設定される。 By the way, the brake operation force by the interlocking brake lever 32 acts on the equalizer 33 via the connecting rod 55, and is distributed from the equalizer 33 to the force for pulling the both brake cables 34, 35. However, in order to make the forces distributed from the equalizer 33 to the two brake cables 34, 35 different from each other, the two brake cables 34, 34 are separated at different positions from the connecting position of the connecting rod 55 to the equalizer 33, 35 are connected to the equalizer 33. That is, in this embodiment, the distance between the connecting position of the connecting rod 55 to the equalizer 33 and the connecting position of the front wheel brake cable 34 to the equalizer 33 is L F, and the connecting position of the connecting rod 55 to the equalizer 33 and the rear When the distance between the connection positions of the wheel brake cable 35 to the equalizer 33 is L R , L F > L R is set.

 イコライザ33は、連動用ブレーキレバー32の非操作時には、フランジ部33dがケーシング56の初期当接面67に当接し、連動用ブレーキレバー32の操作に応じてフランジ部33dが初期当接面67から離反するように作動する。 In the equalizer 33, when the interlocking brake lever 32 is not operated, the flange portion 33d abuts on the initial abutment surface 67 of the casing 56, and in accordance with the operation of the interlocking brake lever 32, the flange portion 33d opens from the initial abutment surface 67 Acts to break apart.
 またケーシング56には、初期当接面67に検出子68aを臨ませるようにしてストップスイッチ68が取付けられている。このストップスイッチ68は、連動用ブレーキレバー32の非操作時にイコライザ33のフランジ部33dが初期当接面67に当接している状態で該フランジ部33dにより検出子68aが押し込まれている状態と、連動用ブレーキレバー32の操作に応じたイコライザ33の作動により前記フランジ部33dが初期当接面67から離反することにより検出子68aへの押圧力が解放される状態とで、連動用ブレーキレバー32の非操作状態および操作状態を検出する。 Further, a stop switch 68 is attached to the casing 56 so that the detector 68 a faces the initial contact surface 67. The stop switch 68 is in a state where the detector 68a is pushed by the flange portion 33d in a state where the flange portion 33d of the equalizer 33 is in contact with the initial contact surface 67 when the interlocking brake lever 32 is not operated. The interlocking brake lever 32 is released in a state where the pressing force on the detector 68a is released by the flange portion 33d moving away from the initial abutment surface 67 by the operation of the equalizer 33 according to the operation of the interlocking brake lever 32. Detect the non-operation status and operation status of
 ケーシング56には、連動用ブレーキレバー32の非操作状態で後輪用ブレーキケーブル35を牽引作動せしめた状態に保持するが前輪用ブレーキケーブル34を非牽引作動状態とすることが可能なブレーキ力保持手段70が配設される。このブレーキ力保持手段70は、連動用ブレーキレバー32のブレーキ操作に応じてイコライザ33が作動位置に在るときに該イコライザ33に係合する係合位置ならびにイコライザ33への係合を解除する非係合位置間での作動を可能としてケーシング56の先端部を外側から覆うブレーキ力保持アーム71と、該ブレーキ力保持アーム71の先端部に一体に形成された操作レバー72と、イコライザ33との係合を解除する側にブレーキ力保持アーム71を弾発付勢する戻しばね73とを備える。 The casing 56 holds the rear wheel brake cable 35 in a towed state in a non-operating state of the interlocking brake lever 32, but holds the braking force capable of bringing the front wheel brake cable 34 into a non-towed state. Means 70 are provided. The braking force holding means 70 releases the engagement position to engage with the equalizer 33 when the equalizer 33 is in the operating position according to the brake operation of the interlocking brake lever 32, and the non-engagement to the equalizer 33. A braking force holding arm 71 covering the tip of the casing 56 from the outside enabling operation between the engagement positions; an operation lever 72 integrally formed at the tip of the braking force holding arm 71; and an equalizer 33 A return spring 73 resiliently urging the brake force holding arm 71 is provided on the side for releasing the engagement.
 ブレーキ力保持アーム71は、図8A及び図8Bに示すように、右側壁57bを挟むように互いに平行且つ水平に延びるアーム板部74,74と、両アーム板部74,74の前面部を連結する前掲の前面カバー59と、両アーム板部74,74の長手方向略中間部で両アーム板部74,74間にわたって設けられるピンである係合部材77とで構成されている。また、アーム板部74,74には、右側壁57bと重なる位置に、支持孔78が設けられている。 As shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the braking force holding arm 71 connects the front plate portions of both arm plate portions 74 and 74 with arm plate portions 74 and 74 extending in parallel and horizontally so as to sandwich the right side wall 57b. The above-described front cover 59 and an engaging member 77 which is a pin provided over the both arm plate portions 74, 74 at substantially the middle in the longitudinal direction of the both arm plate portions 74, 74. Further, support holes 78 are provided in the arm plate portions 74, 74 at positions overlapping with the right side wall 57b.
 ケーシング56のケース57において、右側壁57bの前端部には貫通孔57cが設けられている。ピンである軸部79が、ブレーキ力保持アーム71の支持孔78および貫通孔57cに挿通されることにより、ブレーキ力保持アーム71が該軸部79で回動可能に支承されることになる。また戻しばね73は、図4に示すように、該軸部79を囲繞してブレーキ力保持アーム71の前面カバー59およびケース57の右側壁57b間に設けられる。 In the case 57 of the casing 56, a through hole 57c is provided at the front end of the right side wall 57b. The shaft 79 as a pin is inserted into the support hole 78 and the through hole 57 c of the braking force holding arm 71, whereby the braking force holding arm 71 is rotatably supported by the shaft 79. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the return spring 73 is provided between the front cover 59 of the braking force holding arm 71 and the right side wall 57 b of the case 57 so as to surround the shaft 79.
 一方、イコライザ33には、両ブレーキケーブル34,35のうち連結ロッド55の中間接続部33mからの距離が小である側、すなわち後輪用ブレーキケーブル35側に、第2接続部33fからさらに長手方向他端側(前方)に向かって延びる断面C字形状の延出部33eが設けられている。延出部33eは、連結部33cによって連結された一対の平板部33a,33bが第2接続部33fよりもさらに長手方向他端側(前方)に向かって延設されたものである。この延出部33eには、図10で示すようにイコライザ33が連動用ブレーキレバー32の操作により初期当接面67から離反して作動した状態で、前記ブレーキ力保持アーム71の係合部材77が係合する被係合部80,80が凹設されている。凹設された被係合部80,80の最深部は、第1接続部33rの中心P1と第2接続部33fの中心P2を結ぶ線よりも連結部33c側に設けられている。 On the other hand, in the equalizer 33, of the two brake cables 34 and 35, the distance from the intermediate connection portion 33m of the connecting rod 55 is smaller, that is, longer on the rear wheel brake cable 35 side from the second connection portion 33f. An extension 33e having a C-shaped cross section extending toward the other end side (forward) of the direction is provided. The extending portion 33e is a pair of flat plate portions 33a and 33b connected by the connecting portion 33c, which are further extended toward the other end side (forward) of the second connecting portion 33f in the longitudinal direction. As shown in FIG. 10, the engaging member 77 of the braking force holding arm 71 is operated on the extension portion 33e in a state where the equalizer 33 is operated apart from the initial contact surface 67 by the operation of the interlocking brake lever 32. The engaged portions 80, 80 with which the connector engages are recessed. The deepest portions of the engaged portions 80, 80 provided recessed are provided closer to the connecting portion 33c than a line connecting the center P1 of the first connecting portion 33r and the center P2 of the second connecting portion 33f.
 また、イコライザ33には、さらに両ブレーキケーブル34,35のうち連結ロッド55の中間接続部33mからの距離が大である側、すなわち前輪用ブレーキケーブル34側に、第1接続部33rからさらに長手方向一端側(後方)に向かって延びる第2延出部33gが設けられている。第2延出部33gは、一対の平板部33a,33bのうち上方の平板部33aが第1接続部33rよりもさらに長手方向一端側(後方)に向かって延設されたものである。この第2延出部33gは、短手方向他端側(右方)の面に曲率半径の大きな湾曲部33hが設けられている。曲率半径の大きな湾曲部33hを形成することで、イコライザ33を小型化した際に、イコライザ33がケーブル挿通部57dに噛み込みやすくなることを防止できる。 In the equalizer 33, of the two brake cables 34 and 35, the distance from the intermediate connection portion 33m of the connecting rod 55 is longer, ie, longer on the front wheel brake cable 34 side from the first connection portion 33r. A second extension 33g is provided extending toward one end side (rear) of the direction. The second extending portion 33g is formed by extending the upper flat plate portion 33a of the pair of flat plate portions 33a and 33b further toward the one end side (rearward) in the longitudinal direction than the first connection portion 33r. The second extending portion 33g is provided with a curved portion 33h having a large radius of curvature on the surface on the other end side (right side) in the short direction. By forming the curved portion 33h having a large radius of curvature, it is possible to prevent the equalizer 33 from being easily caught in the cable insertion portion 57d when the equalizer 33 is miniaturized.
 操作レバー72は、ブレーキ力保持アーム71と一体に連動用ブレーキレバー32と略同方向に延びるように形成される。操作レバー72も、操向用ハンドルバー45の左端部の握持部46および連動用ブレーキレバー32を突出させるようにしてハンドルカバー53に設けられている開口部から外方に延出される。 The operating lever 72 is formed integrally with the braking force holding arm 71 so as to extend in substantially the same direction as the interlocking brake lever 32. The control lever 72 is also extended outward from an opening provided in the handle cover 53 so that the grip 46 at the left end of the steering handlebar 45 and the interlocking brake lever 32 project.
 すなわち、延出部33eの長手方向他端側(前方)に位置するケース57の前面開口57afが前面カバー59で覆われており、前面カバー59に係合部材77が設けられている。また、係合部材77を操作する操作レバー72が前面カバー59に一体に設けられている。 That is, the front surface opening 57af of the case 57 located on the other end side (forward) of the extension 33e in the longitudinal direction is covered with the front surface cover 59, and the front surface cover 59 is provided with the engagement member 77. Further, an operation lever 72 for operating the engagement member 77 is integrally provided on the front cover 59.
 ブレーキ力保持手段70を作動せしめるにあたっては、連動用ブレーキレバー32を操作した状態で、操作レバー72を回動操作する。そうすると、図10で示したように、ブレーキ力保持アーム71が戻しばね73のばね力に抗して非係合位置から係合位置へと移動し、作動位置に移動しているイコライザ33の被係合部80,80にブレーキ力保持アーム71の係合部材77が係合する。そこで、連動用ブレーキレバー32の操作力を解除すると、イコライザ33は後輪用ブレーキケーブル35を牽引作動状態とするが前輪用ブレーキケーブル34を非牽引状態とするブレーキ力保持位置へと作動することになる。この状態では後輪ブレーキBのみが作動し、前輪ブレーキBが非作動状態となり、かかるブレーキ力保持状態はストップスイッチ68で検出される。すなわちブレーキ力保持時において、液圧式である前輪ブレーキBの構成部品であるホースやシール等のゴム部品に液圧が作用することがなく、ゴム部品の寿命増大を図ることができる。 When operating the braking force holding means 70, the operating lever 72 is turned in a state where the interlocking brake lever 32 is operated. Then, as shown in FIG. 10, the brake force holding arm 71 moves from the non-engagement position to the engagement position against the spring force of the return spring 73, and moves to the actuated position. The engaging member 77 of the braking force holding arm 71 engages with the engaging portions 80, 80. Therefore, when the operating force of the interlocking brake lever 32 is released, the equalizer 33 operates the rear wheel brake cable 35 to the traction operating state, but operates the braking force holding position to the front wheel brake cable 34 not to the traction state. become. Only the rear wheel brake B R is activated in this state, the front wheel brake B F becomes inoperative state, such braking force retaining state is detected by the stop switch 68. That is, at the time of holding the braking force, the hydraulic pressure does not act on rubber components such as hoses and seals which are components of the hydraulic type front wheel brake BF , and the life of the rubber components can be increased.
 しかも被係合部80,80は、前輪用ブレーキケーブル34および後輪用ブレーキケーブル35のうち、連動用ブレーキレバー32の連結部からの距離が小さい方であるブレーキケーブルすなわち後輪用ブレーキケーブル35側でイコライザ33に設けられる。したがって、連動用ブレーキレバー32の操作に応じて比較的大きく作動する側でイコライザ33にブレーキ力保持手段70の係合部材77を係合させ得る。これにより、ブレーキ力保持手段70を作動させるときの連動用ブレーキレバー32の操作量を比較的小さくすることができる。 Moreover, the engaged portions 80, 80 are brake cables for which the distance from the connecting portion of the interlocking brake lever 32 is smaller among the front wheel brake cable 34 and the rear wheel brake cable 35, that is, the rear wheel brake cable 35. The equalizer 33 is provided on the side. Therefore, the engaging member 77 of the braking force holding means 70 can be engaged with the equalizer 33 on the side which operates relatively largely according to the operation of the interlocking brake lever 32. As a result, the amount of operation of the interlocking brake lever 32 when operating the braking force holding means 70 can be made relatively small.
 このとき、延出部33eは、平行に配置された2つの平板部33a,33bの一辺(短手方向一辺)が連結部33cによって連結されており、係合部材77が被係合部80,80に係合している状態における後輪用ブレーキケーブル35と平行で、且つ、被係合部80,80を通る仮想線L1が、連結部33cと交わるように形成されている。したがって、被係合部80,80に作用する後輪用ブレーキケーブル35の反力を連結部33cで支持することができる。 At this time, in the extension portion 33e, one side (one side in the width direction) of two flat plate portions 33a and 33b arranged in parallel is connected by the connecting portion 33c, and the engagement member 77 is engaged with the engaged portion 80, An imaginary line L1 parallel to the rear wheel brake cable 35 in a state of being engaged with the wheel 80 and passing through the engaged portions 80, 80 is formed to intersect the connecting portion 33c. Therefore, the reaction force of the rear wheel brake cable 35 acting on the engaged portions 80, 80 can be supported by the connecting portion 33c.
 このようなブレーキ力保持状態を解除するには、連動用ブレーキレバー32をわずかに回動操作すればよい。そうすれば、ブレーキ力保持アーム71が戻しばね73のばね力によって係合位置から非係合位置へと移動してブレーキ力保持アーム71のイコライザ33への係合が解除される。このように連動用ブレーキレバー32を元に戻すことによりイコライザ33が非作動位置へと戻って後輪ブレーキBが休止状態となる。 In order to release such a braking force holding state, the interlocking brake lever 32 may be slightly rotated. Then, the brake force holding arm 71 is moved from the engaged position to the non-engaged position by the spring force of the return spring 73, and the engagement of the brake force holding arm 71 with the equalizer 33 is released. Thus, by returning the interlocking brake lever 32 to the original position, the equalizer 33 returns to the inoperative position, and the rear wheel brake BR is put into a rest state.
 以上説明したように、本実施形態では、イコライザ33は、後輪用ブレーキケーブル35が接続される第2接続部33fから長手方向他端側に向けてさらに延びる断面C字形状の延出部33eを備え、延出部33eにブレーキ力保持アーム71の係合部材77が係合する被係合部80が形成されている。したがって、コンパクトであっても高い剛性を発揮でき、イコライザ33としての機能を保持したたま軽量化を図ることができる。 As described above, in the present embodiment, the equalizer 33 extends from the second connection portion 33f to which the rear wheel brake cable 35 is connected to the C-shaped extending portion 33e extending further toward the other end in the longitudinal direction. In the extension 33e, an engaged portion 80 is formed, with which the engaging member 77 of the brake force holding arm 71 is engaged. Therefore, even if it is compact, high rigidity can be exhibited and weight reduction can be achieved while maintaining the function as the equalizer 33.
 また、イコライザ33を収容するケース57が、操向用ハンドルバー45に対し連動用ブレーキレバー32を支持するホルダ47と一体に形成されているので、部品点数を削減することができる。 Further, since the case 57 accommodating the equalizer 33 is integrally formed with the holder 47 supporting the interlocking brake lever 32 with respect to the steering handlebar 45, the number of parts can be reduced.
 また、自動二輪車用前後連動ブレーキ装置10は、イコライザ33の延出部33eの長手方向他端側を覆う前面カバー59をさらに備え、前面カバー59にブレーキ力保持アーム71の係合部材77が設けられているので、部品点数をさらに削減することができる。 In addition, the front and rear interlocking brake device 10 for a motorcycle further includes a front cover 59 that covers the other end side of the extension 33e of the equalizer 33 in the longitudinal direction, and the front cover 59 is provided with an engaging member 77 of the braking force holding arm 71. The number of parts can be further reduced.
 また、前面カバー59に係合部材77を操作する操作レバー72が一体に設けられているので、部品点数をさらに削減することができる。 Further, since the operation lever 72 for operating the engagement member 77 is integrally provided on the front cover 59, the number of parts can be further reduced.
 また、イコライザ33は、平行に配置された2つの平板部33a,33bの一辺が連結部33cによって連結されており、連結部33cが設けられていない2つの平板部33a,33bのうち少なくとも一方の他辺には、フランジ部33dが形成されているので、軽量化を図りつつ開放部の剛性を高めることができる。 In the equalizer 33, one side of two flat plate portions 33a and 33b arranged in parallel is connected by the connecting portion 33c, and at least one of the two flat plate portions 33a and 33b in which the connecting portion 33c is not provided. Since the flange portion 33d is formed on the other side, the rigidity of the open portion can be enhanced while achieving weight reduction.
 また、イコライザ33の延出部33eは、平行に配置された2つの平板部33a,33bの一辺が連結部33cによって連結されており、係合部材77が被係合部80に係合している状態における後輪用ブレーキケーブル35と平行で、且つ、被係合部80を通る仮想線L1が連結部33cと交わる。したがって、被係合部80に作用する後輪用ブレーキケーブル35の反力を連結部33cで支持することができる。 Further, in the extension portion 33e of the equalizer 33, one side of two flat plate portions 33a and 33b arranged in parallel is connected by the connecting portion 33c, and the engaging member 77 is engaged with the engaged portion 80. A virtual line L1 passing through the engaged portion 80 is parallel to the rear wheel brake cable 35 in the on state, and intersects the connecting portion 33c. Accordingly, the reaction force of the rear wheel brake cable 35 acting on the engaged portion 80 can be supported by the connecting portion 33 c.
 以上、本発明の一実施形態について説明したが、本発明はこれに限るものではなく、適宜変更できる。
 例えば、連動用ブレーキレバー32とイコライザ33との接続は連結ロッド55を介して間接的に接続されてもよく、連結ロッド55を介さずに直接的に接続されてもよい。
 また、イコライザ33の形状は、適宜変更することができる。
