Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of motorcycle technology, and in particular to a heating system for motorcycles and a motorcycle. Background Technology

[0002] Riding a motorcycle in winter is uncomfortable due to the low temperatures and direct wind exposure, which leaves the rider's legs exposed to cold air for extended periods. This can lead to health problems in the long run. While some motorcycle models have external radiators that allow some warm air to be blown onto the legs, traditional scooters have radiators that are isolated by covers, causing the heat to dissipate directly into the environment without being utilized. Furthermore, existing heating systems rely solely on the passively blown air during riding, without the rider being able to adjust the airflow, resulting in poor comfort.

[0003] Therefore, how to improve rider comfort during winter riding while making reasonable use of the vehicle's heat is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in the current technology. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a heating system and a motorcycle for motorcycles, which can improve the riding comfort of riders when riding in winter, while making reasonable use of the heat of the whole vehicle.

[0005] The present invention provides a heating system for a motorcycle, comprising a fan and an air supply duct for supplying air. The air supply duct is mounted on the motorcycle frame, the fan is mounted at the air outlet of the air supply duct, and the air inlet of the air supply duct is located behind the motorcycle radiator. In use, the system is used to deliver air flowing through the radiator to the vicinity of the rider's legs via the fan.

[0006] Furthermore, the air inlet is located behind the exhaust fan of the radiator, above it.

[0007] Furthermore, the dimensions of the air inlet gradually increase along the direction opposite to the wind direction.

[0008] Furthermore, a heating element is provided inside the air supply duct for heating the air inside the air supply duct.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner wall of the air supply duct is provided with heat insulation material.

[0010] Furthermore, the heating system also includes an airflow control component, which includes several air guide vanes. The air guide vanes are rotatably mounted at the air outlet via a rotating shaft and can be driven to rotate to a set angle.

[0011] Furthermore, the airflow control assembly also includes a drive component, drive rod I, and drive rod II. The air supply duct is provided with a clearance opening for exposing the drive component. One end of the drive component is exposed through the clearance opening, and the other end of the drive component is located inside the air supply duct and connected to one end of drive rod I. The other end of drive rod I is connected to drive rod II. Drive rod II is fixedly connected to the air guide vane, so that the drive component can drive the air guide vane to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft to a set angle through drive rod I and drive rod II.

[0012] Furthermore, the insulation material is silicone rubber.

[0013] Furthermore, in use, the fan and air supply duct are in two sets, respectively installed on both sides of the motorcycle frame.

[0014] The motorcycle of the present invention includes the heating system for the motorcycle described above.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The heating system for motorcycles and the motorcycle of the present invention, by setting up an air supply duct and placing the air inlet of the air supply duct behind the radiator, can use the heat emitted by the radiator to heat the air entering the air supply duct, so that the air blown towards the rider's legs by the fan is hot air, thereby saving heat energy and improving the rider's comfort when riding in winter. At the same time, the wind speed can be adjusted by the fan to further meet the different usage needs of the rider. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Figure 1This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the heating system of the present invention when it is used in conjunction with a radiator. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the heating system of the present invention when installed on a motorcycle. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the heating system. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the wind direction control component, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown: This embodiment of the heating system for a motorcycle includes a fan 4 and an air supply duct 1 for delivering air. The air supply duct 1 is mounted on the motorcycle frame, and the fan 4 is mounted at the air outlet 102 of the air supply duct 1. The air inlet 101 of the air supply duct 1 is located behind the motorcycle radiator 2. In use, it is used to deliver air flowing through the radiator 2 to the vicinity of the rider's legs via the fan 4. The air supply duct 1 is generally composed of a housing. During installation, the air supply duct 1 is connected to the body panel, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the air supply duct 1 extends backward and upward from the air inlet 101, finally bending forward (relative to the front-to-back and up-and-down directions of the motorcycle). The fan 4 is installed at the air outlet 102 of the air supply duct 1. When needed, the fan 4 is turned on, and the fan 4 generates negative pressure at the air outlet 102, which exhausts the hot air that flows through the radiator 2 into the air supply duct 1 (when riding, the oncoming air generated by the motorcycle's forward movement continuously flows through the internal fins of the radiator 2, carrying away the heat accumulated in the radiator 2 and raising the temperature of the air itself) and blows it towards the rider's legs (i.e., the legs and the area around the legs). This improves riding comfort in cold weather. Generally, the fan 4 is connected to the motorcycle's main cable and is controlled by a switch on the handlebars. The fan speed can be adjusted to further meet the user's needs and improve applicability.

[0024] In this embodiment, the air inlet 101 is located behind the exhaust fan of the radiator 2, near the top. Figure 1 As shown, the air inlet 101 is located behind the exhaust fan of the radiator 2 at the top position (relative to the front-to-back and up-to-down direction of the motorcycle), so that most of the air flowing through the radiator 2 can be better sent into the air supply duct 1, improving the utilization rate of hot air.

[0025] In this embodiment, the size of the air inlet 101 gradually increases along the direction opposite to the wind direction. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the air inlet 101 and the main channel of the air supply duct 1 form an L-shaped structure. At the same time, the size of the air inlet 101 gradually decreases from front to back relative to the front and rear direction of the motorcycle, so that more air can be sent into the air supply duct 1.

[0026] In this embodiment, a heating element 3 is provided inside the air supply duct 1 to heat the air inside the air supply duct 1. The heating element 3 is generally a heating wire, which is connected to a power source via a switch. The switch is generally located on the handlebars of the motorcycle, so that the rider can further heat the air inside the air supply duct 1 as needed, thereby further improving the rider's needs and riding comfort in cold weather.

[0027] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the air supply duct 1 is provided with heat insulation material. By providing heat insulation material, typically silicone rubber or other heat-resistant materials, on the inner wall of the air supply duct 1, heat loss can be reduced and heat energy utilization can be improved. At the same time, it can also prevent the outer wall of the air supply duct 1 from having a high temperature, which could cause discomfort to the rider. The maximum heating temperature of the heating wire is lower than the heat resistance temperature that the heat insulation material inside the air supply duct 1 can withstand.

[0028] In this embodiment, the heating system further includes an airflow control component, which comprises several guide vanes 5. Each guide vane 5 is rotatably mounted on the air outlet 102 via a rotating shaft 9 and can be driven to rotate to a set angle. The number of guide vanes 5 can be set according to usage needs. When the guide vanes 5 are parallel to the air outlet 102, they cover the entire outlet 102, and a small amount of hot air flows out through the gaps between the guide vanes 5. When the guide vanes 5 are at a certain angle relative to the air outlet 102, the hot air in the air duct 1 is guided by the guide vanes 5 and blown towards the rider's legs, further meeting the user's different usage needs.

[0029] In this embodiment, the wind direction control component further includes a drive element 6, a drive rod I 7, and a drive rod II 8. The air supply duct 1 is provided with a clearance opening for exposing the drive element 6. One end of the drive element 6 is exposed in the clearance opening, and the other end of the drive element 6 is located inside the air supply duct 1 and connected to one end of the drive rod I 7. The other end of the drive rod I 7 is connected to the drive rod II 8. The drive rod II 8 is fixedly connected to the air guide vane 5, so that the drive element 6 can drive the air guide vane 5 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 9 to a set angle through the drive rod I 7 and the drive rod II 8.

[0030] Specifically, the drive component 6 is generally a lever, with one end of the drive component 6 protruding from the air supply duct 1, making it easy for the rider to operate the drive component 6. Drive rod I7 and drive rod II8 form a linkage structure. The middle part of drive rod I7 is fixedly connected to the air supply duct 1 and forms a lever structure with the air supply duct 1. Therefore, when the drive component 6 is operated, the drive component 6 can drive drive rod II8 to move via drive rod I7, and drive rod II8 can drive the air guide vanes 5 to rotate. Figure 4 As shown, this allows the air guide blade 5 to rotate around the shaft 9.

[0031] In this embodiment, the insulation material is silicone rubber. Using silicone rubber provides good heat resistance while reducing heat loss and improving the utilization rate of thermal energy.

[0032] In this embodiment, during use, the fan 4 and the air supply duct 1 are two sets, respectively installed on both sides of the motorcycle frame. The fan 4 and the air supply duct 1 are two sets, respectively located on the left and right sides of the motorcycle frame, thus delivering hot air to the rider's legs on both sides. During use, when the fan 4 is in the off state, due to the poor airflow of the air supply duct 1 cavity, the hot air accumulated in the air supply duct 1 cannot be effectively discharged, and the heating system is in the off state. When the fan 4 is turned on, the heating system is in the operating state.

[0033] The motorcycle of this embodiment includes the heating system for the motorcycle.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
