Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a rear rack, in particular to an adjustable rear rack for a straddle-type vehicle. Background Art

[0002] With the rise of various delivery industries, more and more motorcycle users will install shelves on the rear armrests of their motorcycles to carry delivery boxes or goods. However, the area of ​​this type of additional shelf is fixed and cannot be adjusted, resulting in too much space being occupied when not in use, and the area is too small to accommodate larger objects. Summary of the invention

[0003] [Problems to be Solved by the Invention]

[0004] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a rear cargo rack with an adjustable load-bearing area.

[0005] [Technical means to solve the problem]

[0006] Therefore, the adjustable rear shelf of the present invention comprises a fixed seat with at least one positioning hole formed by a downward depression from the top surface, a movable seat arranged on the fixed seat so as to slide forward and backward along the fixed seat, and an unlocking member pivotally arranged between the fixed seat and the movable seat. The movable seat is provided with a pressing hole penetrating along the up-down direction. The user can apply pressure to the unlocking member through the pressing hole to switch the unlocking member from a locked state to an unlocked state. When the unlocking member is in the locked state, the unlocking member is embedded in the at least one positioning hole, thereby preventing the movable seat from sliding forward and backward relative to the fixed seat. When the unlocking member is in the unlocked state, the unlocking member is moved out of the at least one positioning hole, thereby allowing the movable seat to slide forward and backward relative to the fixed seat.

[0007] In some embodiments of the present invention, when the unlocking member is in the unlocking state, the user can operate the movable seat to move the movable seat forward and backward relative to the fixed seat. At this time, the unlocking member is in sliding contact with the fixed seat.

[0008] In some embodiments of the present invention, the unlocking member includes a lock buckle. When the unlocking member is in the locked state, one end of the lock buckle extends into the pressing hole of the movable seat, and the other end extends into the at least one positioning hole of the fixed seat. When the unlocking member is in the unlocked state, the two ends of the lock buckle are respectively located outside the pressing hole and the at least one positioning hole.

[0009] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lock buckle of the unlocking member has a pivot portion pivotally mounted on the movable seat, a pressing portion extending from the pivot portion along the front-to-back direction, and a positioning portion extending from the pivot portion and the pressing portion in opposite directions.

[0010] In some embodiments of the present invention, the movable seat includes a seat body portion with a pressing hole, and two lug portions protruding downward from the seat body portion and spaced apart from each other to the left and right. The unlocking member also includes a pivot rod passing through the lug portions and the pivot portion of the lock, and an elastic member set on the pivot rod and used to reset the lock.

[0011] In some embodiments of the present invention, when the unlocking member is in the locked state, the top surface of the pressing portion of the lock buckle is adjacent to the top surface of the movable seat.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present invention, when the unlocking member is in the unlocking state, the pressing portion of the lock buckle moves downward away from the top surface of the movable seat.

[0013] In some embodiments of the present invention, the pivot portion of the lock is located between the fixed seat and the movable seat along the up-down direction.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present invention, when the unlocking member is in the unlocking state, the movable seat can move forward and backward relative to the fixed seat between an original state and an extended state. When the movable seat is in the original state, the movable seat covers the fixed seat. When the movable seat is in the extended state, the movable seat protrudes backward so that part of the fixed seat is exposed to the outside.

[0015] In some embodiments of the present invention, the positioning portion of the unlocking member is hooked backward and extended below the fixing seat, so that at least a part of the horizontal projection area of ​​the positioning portion overlaps with the horizontal projection area of ​​the fixing seat.

[0016] [Effects of the Invention]

[0017] The present invention has the effect that the movable seat can be manipulated to move relative to the fixed seat, thereby adjusting the bearing area to improve versatility. In addition, the present invention can unlock and lock the movable seat by only pressing and releasing the unlocking member, which is simple to operate and can ensure the stability of the movable seat when it is positioned.

[0018] In some embodiments of the present invention, the function is that after the user presses the unlocking member and slightly pulls the movable seat, the unlocking member will abut against the fixed seat to maintain the unlocked state. In this way, the user does not need to continue pressing the unlocking member during the subsequent pulling of the movable seat, thereby improving the operational convenience and commercial quality.

[0019] In some embodiments of the present invention, the unlocking member switches between the locked state and the unlocked state by respectively engaging the pressing hole and the at least one positioning hole at both ends thereof, so as to achieve the distinction between positioning and operability.

[0020] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lock adopts a seesaw structure design, thereby allowing the user to operate to adjust the movable seat with less effort.

[0021] In some embodiments of the present invention, the elastic member can allow the lock to maintain the power of resetting. When the positioning portion is aligned with another positioning hole, the resetting force of the elastic member can cause the positioning portion to automatically embed into the positioning hole, so that the unlocking member switches from the unlocking state to the locking state, greatly reducing the complexity of the operation and improving the convenience, while also having a better operational feedback feel.

[0022] In some embodiments of the present invention, its function is that when the movable seat is in the original state, the movable seat is folded onto the fixed seat, which can reduce the overall length and space occupied by the vehicle. When the movable seat is in the extended state, the load-bearing area can be increased to meet different carrying needs.

[0023] In some embodiments of the present invention, the rear hook design of the positioning portion can prevent the unlocking member from switching from the locked state to the unlocked state when the pressing portion is not pressed but only an external force is applied to pull the movable seat, thereby enhancing the positioning performance.

[0049] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 ,and Figure 3 An embodiment of the adjustable rear shelf of the present invention is suitable for Figure 1 The straddle-type vehicle 11 shown in the figure has an adjustable rear rack comprising a fixed seat 2 disposed on a frame 12 of the vehicle 11, a movable seat 3 disposed on the fixed seat 2 so as to be slidable forward and backward along the fixed seat 2, and an unlocking member 4 pivotally disposed between the fixed seat 2 and the movable seat 3.

[0050] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 ,and Figure 4 The fixing seat 2 is recessed downward from the top surface to form two positioning holes 21, and the positioning holes 21 are arranged at intervals along the front-to-back direction ( Figure 3Only one of them is shown). The movable seat 3 includes a seat body portion 31 located above the fixed seat 2, and two lug portions 32 protruding downward from the seat body portion 31 and spaced from each other to the left and right. The seat body portion 31 is provided with a pressing hole 33 penetrating in the up-down direction. The unlocking member 4 includes a lock catch 41, a pivot rod 42 penetrating the lug portions 32 and the lock catch 41, and an elastic member 43 set on the pivot rod 42. The lock catch 41 has a pivot portion 411 penetrating the pivot rod 42, a pressing portion 412 extending backward and upward from the pivot portion 411, and a positioning portion 413 extending forward and downward from the pivot portion 411. The elastic member 43 is a torsion spring, and its two ends are respectively fixed to the pivot portion 411 and one of the lug portions 32. The torsion of the elastic member 43 enables the lock catch 41 to continuously obtain the elastic force of resetting.

[0051] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 ,and Figure 5 The unlocking member 4 can be operated in a Figure 3 The locked state shown, and Figure 5 When the unlocking member 4 is in the locked state, the pressing portion 412 is extended into the pressing hole 33, and the top surface of the pressing portion 412 is adjacent to the top surface of the seat body 31, and the positioning portion 413 is extended downward into one of the positioning holes 21, thereby locking the movable seat 3 on the fixed seat 2. The user can press the pressing portion 412 downward through the pressing hole 33 with a finger, so that the pressing portion 412 moves downward away from the top surface of the seat body 31, thereby making the lock buckle 41 tilt like a seesaw, thereby switching the unlocking member 4 to the unlocking state, at which time the positioning portion 413 is moved out of the positioning hole 21, and the movable seat 3 is no longer fixed on the fixed seat 2.

[0052] See also Figure 2 , Figure 5 ,and Figure 6 When the unlocking member 4 is in the unlocking state, the user can pull the movable seat 3 backward or push it forward, so that the movable seat 3 is in a state relative to the fixed seat 2. Figure 2 The original state shown, and Figure 6The movable seat 3 moves back and forth between the extended states shown. When the movable seat 3 is in the original state, the movable seat 3 covers the fixed seat 2, so that the adjustable rear shelf is folded and the occupied space can be reduced. When the movable seat 3 is in the extended state, the movable seat 3 protrudes backwards so that the fixed seat 2 is partially exposed to the outside, thereby increasing the load-bearing area of ​​the adjustable rear shelf. It should be further explained that during the movement of the movable seat 3 back and forth, the positioning portion 413 is continuously pressed against the top surface of the fixed seat 2 by the elastic force of the elastic member 43, so that the positioning portion 413 is in sliding contact with the fixed seat 2. After moving to the position, the positioning portion 413 will align with another positioning hole 21 (which is blocked by the movable seat 3 and not shown). Figure 6 ), and the elastic force of the elastic member 43 will force the positioning portion 413 to automatically embed into the positioning hole 21, so that the unlocking member 4 automatically switches to the locked state. In this way, during the entire operation process, the user only needs to lightly press the pressing portion 412 once and then pull the movable seat 3. There is no need to continue pressing during the pulling process, and it can be automatically locked after reaching the position without other operations, which greatly reduces the complexity of the operation and improves the convenience, while also having a better operational feedback feel.

[0053] See also Figure 7 In addition to Figure 3 In addition to the embodiment shown, the Figure 7 The design shown, that is, the positioning portion 413 is hooked backward, so that a portion 414 extends below the fixed seat 2, and the portion 414 overlaps with the fixed seat 2 in the horizontal projection area viewed from top to bottom. This design of the positioning portion 413 can enhance the positioning of the movable seat 3 fixed on the fixed seat 2, and avoid the unlocking member 4 switching from the locked state to the unlocked state when the pressing portion 412 is not pressed and only an external force is applied to pull the movable seat 3.

[0054] In summary, the present invention can adjust the size of the load area to correspond to items of different sizes or transportation requirements through simple and labor-saving operations, thereby improving the overall versatility. The ingenious design of the operation also makes the overall operation more convenient and improves the commercial value, so the purpose of the present invention can indeed be achieved.
