Abstract

In a small-type vehicle in which front parts of frame members (15) extending rearwards are connected to a hollow main pipe (14) extending rearwardly downwards from a head pipe (13) and forming a fuel passage (30) at least at a part thereof and a fuel tank (28) supplied with an oil from an oil supply pipe (31) through the fuel passage is connected to a lower part of the main pipe, to enhance the degree of freedom in designing the shape and layout of a fuel tank and to enhance maintainability. One end of a flexible lower connecting tube (34) is connected to the main pipe (14) so as to communicate with the fuel passage (30), and the other end of the lower connecting tube (34) is connected to the fuel tank (28).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a small vehicle in which the frame includes a head pipe for rotatably supporting a steering handle and a front fork and a hollow main pipe extending rearwardly and downwardly from the head pipe and forming a fuel passage at least at a portion thereof , wherein a fuel supply pipe for supplying fuel into the fuel passage is connected to the main pipe, and a fuel tank supplied with fuel from the fuel supply pipe through the fuel passage is connected to a lower portion of the main pipe. In particular, the present invention relates to improvements in fuel supply structures. Background technique [0002] There is known a motor scooter in which the interior of a main pipe connecting a head pipe and a frame member to each other is used as a fuel passage for supplying fuel into a fuel tank, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 6-15353, Hereinafter, it is referred to as Patent Document 1. [0003] Meanwhile, in the...
