Securing device for transporting two-wheeled vehicle

Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a securing device for transporting a two-wheeled vehicle that reliably secures a two-wheeled vehicle during transport and lessens the mechanical burden of doing so, and that is compatible with two-wheeled vehicles differing in size and otherwise. The securing device secures a two-wheeled vehicle (A) to a floor (2) in order to transport the two-wheeled vehicle. A body holding member (20) that rests on the seat of the two-wheeled vehicle (A) is provided so as to be height adjustable, and a front wheel stop member (40) and a rear wheel stop member (30) that secure the position of the front wheel and the rear wheel are provided so that the front-to-back distance between the two members is adjustable. The floor (2) or members formed integrally therewith, the body holding member (20), and the rear wheel stop member (30) are connected via a continuous belt (10). Through adjustment of the length of the belt (10) the body holding member (20) presses the saddle from above and the front-to-back distance between the front wheel stop member (40) and the rear wheel stop member (30) is reduced and thus both members restrict the front-to-back direction positions of the front and rear wheels.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention recited in the claims relates to a transport fixing device used to fix a two-wheeled vehicle to a floor when the two-wheeled vehicle is transported by a truck or a ship. Background technique [0002] The device (turnover box) described in Patent Document 1 is widely known as a transport fixing device used when a motorcycle is loaded on a trailer and transported. As shown in FIGS. 11( a ) to 11 ( c ), the device described in Patent Document 1 has side frames (side plates) on the left and right sides of the sliders constituting the floor ( FIG. 11( a )). In addition, on the floor, there are also lateral displacement preventing parts (Fig. Put the front wheel into the frame and fix the front wheel stopper (Fig. 11(a), Fig. 11(b)), etc. When in use, in order to prevent the automatic two-wheeled vehicle from jumping upwards, after setting up the vehicle body pressing parts (Fig. Rods (bolts) on the skids press this body pressing part onto t...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0013] b) The above-mentioned front wheel stopper and lateral displacement prevention member are fixed to the floor, therefore, cannot adequately cope with differences in the size and model of two-wheeled vehicles

It is difficult to securely fix the two-wheeled vehicle during transport if there is a margin in size for each of the above-mentioned components in such a way that it can cope with a slight difference in size.

However, if the pressing force of the vehicle body pressing member is increased so as to enable reliable fixing, the dynamic load on the two-wheeled vehicle described in the above a) will further increase.
