Problems solved by technology

[0005] Arranging an additional decorative cover on the tunnel-shaped portion as described above can improve the appearance, but since the decorative cover is added, the number of parts increases, resulting in an increase in cost.
In order to reduce the number of parts, it has also been considered to integrate with other cover parts, such as the body cover under the seat, but this will increase the size of the components and reduce the degree of freedom of design. Therefore, it is difficult to do so. To increase the degree of design freedom and reduce the number of parts

Abstract

The flexibility of design of a tunnel portion lateral surface is increased without increasing the number of parts. Low-floor type step floors 3 and leg shields 8 forward of the corresponding step floors 3 are provided between a front wheel 1 and a rear wheel 2. A tunnel portion 7 is provided between the left and right step floors 3 and a seat 4 is disposed rearward of the step floors 3. A lateral surface of the tunnel portion 7 is formed of a tunnel portion side cover 32 and a floor panel 33. Of them, the tunnel portion side cover 32 is formed by uniting a main body portion 50 with a front side cover 51 forward of the leg shield 8. The tunnel portion side cover 32 is joined to the outer edge of the floor panel 33 integrally including a lateral rising wall portion 60, a front rising wall portion 61, the step floor 3 and the leg shield 8. The leg shield 8 is received in a generally V-shaped space defined between the main body portion 50 and the front side cover 51.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a floor structure that is advantageous for the design of a scooter-type vehicle, especially when it has a tunnel. Background technique [0002] In the scooter-type vehicle, the known floor structure is that the left and right sides are provided with a footrest floor for resting feet, a raised tunnel-shaped portion is provided in the middle, and another decorative cover is arranged on the tunnel-shaped portion to improve the tunnel-like shape. The degree of freedom in design of the tunnel-shaped portion, which has conventionally been a rider's straddle portion, has been reduced in degree of freedom in design due to the need to reduce the shape and make it inconspicuous. [0003] Patent Document 1: (Japanese) Patent No. 3938652 [0004] The problem to be solved by the invention [0005] Arranging an additional decorative cover on the tunnel-shaped portion as described above can improve the appearance, but the number of ...
