Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a component installed on a vehicle, in particular to a storage rack. Background Art

[0002] See also Figure 1 , a conventional storage rack 9 is suitable for installation on the front of a motorcycle (not shown). The motorcycle defines a length direction, a width direction and a height direction perpendicular to each other. The conventional storage rack 9 includes a frame 91 surrounding and defining a receiving port 90, a support unit 92 disposed in the receiving port 90, and a screw unit 93 disposed in the support unit 92. The support unit 92 includes three support tubes 921 extending along the width direction and spaced from each other along the height direction, and two reinforcing tubes 922 extending along the height direction to connect the support tubes 921. Among them, the support tubes 921 are sequentially defined as a first support tube 921a, a second support tube 921b and a third support tube 921c along the height direction. The first support tube 921a and the frame 91 divide the receiving port 90 into a first block 901. The second support tube 921b, the first support tube 921a and the frame 91 divide the area around the receiving port 90 into a second block 902. The third support tube 921c, the second support tube 921b and the frame 91 divide the area around the receiving port 90 into a third block 903. The third support tube 921c and the frame 91 divide the area around the receiving port 90 into a fourth block 904. The screw unit 93 includes two first screw pieces 931 that are arranged on the first support tube 921a and located in the first block 901 at intervals along the width direction, and a second screw piece 932 that is arranged on the third support tube 921c and located in the second block 902. And the reinforcing tubes 922 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the second screw piece 932 along the width direction.

[0003] When the conventional storage rack 9 is used, the user screws the first screw-fixing piece 931 and the second screw-fixing piece 932, so that the first screw-fixing piece 931 and the second screw-fixing piece 932 are simultaneously locked to the front of the motorcycle. Then, the user first fixes the goods to the frame 91 in a hook-like manner, and uses the third support tube 921c to support the bottom of the goods, so as to achieve the effect of supporting the weight of the goods and transporting the goods.

[0004] However, in order to effectively improve the mechanical strength, the operator first welds the support tubes 921 to the frame 91, and then welds the reinforcement tubes 922 to the support tubes 921, so that the support tubes 921 and the reinforcement tubes 922 are connected as shown in FIG. Figure 1The structure shown in FIG. 9 is similar to a tic-tac-toe structure, so that the first block 901, the second block 902, the third block 903 and the fourth block 904 can be defined, and the first screw-fixing pieces 931 can be smoothly welded to the first support tube 921a in accordance with the welding position of the support tubes 921, and the second screw-fixing piece 932 can be welded to the second support tube 921b. However, such a complicated manufacturing process will greatly increase the manufacturing cost, so the existing rack 9 still has room for improvement. Utility Model Content

[0023] In some embodiments of the utility model, since each of the support units extends along the width direction and the opposite ends of each of the support units are connected to the frame, the storage rack of the utility model can be manufactured with a minimum of raw material components while maintaining sufficient structural strength and achieving a lightweight effect.

[0024] In some embodiments of the present invention, by means of the structural design of the body and the at least one locking hole of each supporting unit, the strength of fixing the body and the front panel to each other can be maintained when fewer locking points are provided on the body.

[0025] In some embodiments of the present invention, by virtue of the structural design that the length of the front support unit is greater than the length of the rear support unit, the support unit can be raised to a position where the user can place goods at an angle, thereby achieving the effect of increasing the carrying capacity.

[0069] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , is an embodiment of the storage rack of the utility model, which is suitable for installation on a motorcycle 8, and the motorcycle 8 includes a frame 81, a shell 82 covering the frame 81, a front 83 disposed on the frame 81, a seat 84 disposed on the frame 81 and spaced from the front 83 along a length direction D1, and a headlight 85 disposed on a side of the frame 81 close to the front 83. The shell 82 includes a front panel 821 shielding the front of the frame 81. The front panel 821 has a front edge 821a at one end away from the front 83. This embodiment is suitable for placing and hanging supplies to achieve the purpose of transportation, and includes a frame 1, and two support units 2 disposed on the frame 1.

[0070] A width direction D2 perpendicular to the length direction D1 and a height direction D3 perpendicular to the length direction D1 and the width direction D2 are defined. The frame 1 is suitable for being arranged in front of the front panel 821, and includes a support section 11 suitable for supporting the bottom of the goods and located in front of the front panel 821, and a placement section 12 connected to the support section 11 and for the support units 2 to be installed. The support section 11 and the placement section 12 jointly define a receiving opening 10. The support section 11 has a front edge 111 located at an end away from the vehicle head 83.

[0071] A first vertical plane P1 perpendicular to the length direction D1 and overlapping the front edge 821a of the front panel 821, a second vertical plane P2 perpendicular to the length direction D1 and overlapping the end of the headlight 85 away from the front 83, and a third vertical plane P3 perpendicular to the length direction D1 and overlapping the top edge 111 of the support section 11 are further defined. In the present embodiment, the third vertical plane P3 is in front of the first vertical plane P1 and the second vertical plane P2, but the third vertical plane P3 may also overlap with the first vertical plane P1 or the second vertical plane P2.

[0072] A horizontal plane H perpendicular to the height direction D3, an imaginary plane J extending obliquely toward the front of the vehicle 83 at an inclination angle U relative to the horizontal plane H, and a reference plane S extending away from the front of the vehicle 83 at an elevation angle Y relative to the horizontal plane H are defined. Preferably, the front panel 821 is configured along the imaginary plane J, and the placement section 12 is configured obliquely in front of the front panel 821 close to the front panel 821 and is used for hanging goods. In the present embodiment, the support section 11 and the placement section 12 are tubular and integrally formed to surround and form the frame 1, which helps the operator to quickly and conveniently manufacture the frame 1, while effectively reducing the weight of the frame 1 and achieving the effect of improving the overall mechanical strength of the frame 1. The support section 11 is configured horizontally in front of the front panel 821 along the reference plane S, and the placement section 12 is configured obliquely toward the front of the vehicle 83 along the imaginary plane J.

[0073] The support units 2 are arranged on the frame 1 and are extendedly arranged in the receiving opening 10 along the width direction D2. Each of the support units 2 includes a sheet-shaped body 21 and at least one locking hole 22 that runs through the body 21. The body 21 has a first end 211 and a second end 212 that are spaced apart from each other along the width direction D2, and the first end 211 and the second end 212 of each of the body 21 are welded to the frame 1, and the plate-shaped bodies 21 can effectively maintain the strength of the support units 2 and the frame 1 being connected to each other under the condition of using fewer components, and simultaneously achieve the purpose of lightweight. In the present embodiment, the number of the locking holes 22 is one or two, so that when a smaller number of the locking holes 22 are provided, a screw lock member such as a screw can be provided to lock and connect to maintain the strength of the support unit 2 and the front panel 821 being connected to each other.

[0074] It should be supplemented that the support units 2 are arranged at intervals from each other, and the support unit 2 located at the bottom is farther away from the front of the vehicle 83 than the support unit 2 located at the top, thereby forming a structure in which the support unit 2 located at the bottom is relatively forward, and the support unit 2 located at the top is relatively backward. By this, when the operator locks the screw lock member in the locking hole 22, the stress generated by the locking hole 22 of different support units 2 can be dispersed, and the installation stability and durability of the support units 2 can be improved. In addition, since the height of the front edge 111 of the support section 11 is lower than the height of the locking hole 22 of the support unit 2 at the rear, it is helpful for the operator to remove the present embodiment from the front panel 821. When the present embodiment is to be screwed to the front panel 821, the placement section 12 located at the front can also provide a more ample working space for operation, thereby improving the convenience of maintenance.

[0075] When using this embodiment, the user first places the goods on the support section 11, and then hooks the goods on the placement section 12, so that the goods are placed along the angle of the placement section 12. Based on the structural design that the support section 11 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane H, when the operator places the goods on the support section 11, the center of gravity of the goods can be slightly backward, which can not only reduce the situation that the goods fall from the front of the support section 11, but also help the user to distribute the weight of the goods to the center of the motorcycle 8, effectively avoiding the problem of poor turning controllability caused by the weight distribution of the goods too far forward when the user rides the motorcycle 8 to turn. The structural design that the placement section 12 is inclined relative to the support section 11 can support part of the weight of the goods through the placement section 12, avoiding the weight of the goods from being too concentrated on the support section 11, thereby preventing the support section 11 from being deformed and damaged, thereby increasing the service life of the support section 11. When the length of the support unit 2 located at the front is designed to be greater than the length of the support unit 2 located at the rear, it helps to further improve the ability to carry goods.

[0076] In addition, if the user accidentally collides with an object in front while riding the motorcycle 8, since the front edge 111 of the support section 11 protrudes forward more than the front edge 821a of the front panel 821, the support section 11 will contact the object in front earlier than the front panel 821, thereby reducing the damage caused by the front panel 821 directly contacting the object in front, thereby reducing possible repair costs. In addition, since the front edge 111 of the support section 11 protrudes forward more than the end of the headlight 85 away from the front 83, when the motorcycle 8 accidentally collides with an object in front, the support section 11 can also contact the object in front earlier than the headlight 85, thereby preventing the headlight 85 from being damaged due to direct contact with the object in front, and achieving the effect of protecting the headlight 85.

[0077] It is worth mentioning that, due to the structural design that the support unit 2 located at the bottom is closer to the front and the support unit 2 located at the top is closer to the back, in addition to being installed on the motorcycle 8, this embodiment can also be installed on any fixed object with an inclined surface, so that when the goods are placed on the support section 11, the effect of stably supporting the weight of the goods can also be achieved. Therefore, this embodiment is not limited to being installed on the motorcycle 8.

[0078] In summary, in this embodiment of the storage rack of the present invention, the concise structural design of the frame 1 and the supporting units 2 is more convenient than the above-mentioned embodiment. Figure 1The existing rack shown does not need to be additionally equipped with screw fixing pieces, and can greatly simplify the connection points where the support units 2 and the frame 1 are welded to each other while maintaining the overall mechanical strength of the rack of the utility model, thereby reducing the cost of material and welding manufacturing. In addition, the design of the support section 11 protruding forward relative to the front panel 821 and the headlight 85 can optimize the weight distribution of the goods and improve the turning controllability, and can also protect the front panel 821 and the headlight 85, preventing the headlight 85 from being directly hit and damaged, thereby further reducing the maintenance cost. Therefore, the purpose of the utility model can be achieved.

[0079] The above description is only an embodiment of the present utility model and cannot be used to limit the scope of implementation of the present utility model. All simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims and description of the present utility model are still within the scope of the present utility model patent.
