Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a motorcycle side cover, specifically a side cover assembly for both sides of a motorcycle seat, belonging to the technical field of motorcycle side cover. Background Technology
[0002] Motorcycle side covers typically refer to motorcycle side covers, which are parts or all of the motorcycle body parts that cover the side of the motorcycle. The main function of this part is to protect the internal parts of the motorcycle from dust, rain and sun erosion, while also serving a decorative and aesthetic purpose.
[0003] However, most existing motorcycle side covers have various problems. For example, in the side cover with a pre-positioning function disclosed in announcement number CN209126901U and the motorcycle with the side cover, although the mounting holes of the side cover can be perfectly aligned with the fixing holes on the frame when the side cover is pre-positioned, and the side cover position will not be deviated after assembly, and the side cover and frame will not loosen or fall off due to long-term vibration, in this technical solution and most current motorcycle side covers, the side cover components on both sides of the current motorcycle seat generally use a screw locking structure to connect to the vehicle body. This connection structure requires repeated tightening or loosening of multiple screws during maintenance, which is cumbersome and time-consuming, affecting maintenance efficiency. At the same time, long-term vibration can easily cause the screws to loosen or fall off, affecting the reliability of the connection between the side cover and the vehicle body. Moreover, the rigid connection of traditional threaded fixing is difficult to adapt to the installation requirements of different angles of the vehicle body, which can easily lead to assembly deviation or reduced sealing. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a solution that is significantly different from existing technologies, addressing the problem that existing technologies are too simplistic. Specifically, the purpose of this utility model is to solve the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a side cover assembly for both sides of a motorcycle seat.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A side cover assembly for both sides of a motorcycle seat includes a fixing plate, a side plate, a mating plate, a snap-fit groove, a mating assembly, and a flow guiding assembly. The fixing plate is connected and locked to both sides of the motorcycle seat. The side plate is connected to one side of the fixing plate. The mating plate is fixed to one end of the side plate. The snap-fit groove is disposed at one end of the fixing plate. The mating assembly is disposed on the mating plate, and the mating plate is locked in the snap-fit groove by the mating assembly. The flow guiding assembly is disposed on the side plate.
[0007] The docking assembly includes a limiting groove, a retaining plate, an abutment plate, a linkage screw, and a linkage unit. The limiting groove is disposed through the bottom of the retaining groove. The retaining plate is fixed to the bottom of the docking plate and docks with the limiting groove. A rectangular slot is provided on the side wall of the retaining plate. One end of the abutment plate is rotatably connected to the rectangular slot, and the other end abuts against the fixed plate. The linkage screw is slidably connected to the retaining plate. The linkage unit is disposed between the linkage screw and the abutment plate.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the linkage unit includes a sliding groove, a protrusion, and an adjusting cylinder. The annular sliding groove is disposed on the side wall of the linkage screw. The protrusion is disposed on the rotating end of the abutment plate and is slidably engaged in the sliding groove. The adjusting cylinder is embedded and rotatably connected in the abutment plate, and a thread is provided on the inner wall of the adjusting cylinder. The linkage screw is linked with the adjusting cylinder through the thread.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: a guide rod is fixed at the end of the linkage screw away from the adjusting cylinder. The guide rod has a rectangular structure and slides in cooperation with the clamping plate.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the flow guiding component includes a flow guiding groove, a front end groove and a rear end groove. The flow guiding groove is disposed through the side plate and is provided in multiple equidistant locations. The front end groove is disposed on the flow guiding groove near the front of the motorcycle, and the rear end groove is disposed on the flow guiding groove near the rear of the motorcycle. Both the front end groove and the rear end groove are Y-shaped structures.
[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model: two guide plates are symmetrically fixed at the bottom of the side plate, the guide plates are located on both sides of the guide groove, and both are U-shaped.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, multiple positioning buckles are fixed at the bottom edge of the fixing plate.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] In this invention, the side cover is divided into two independent modules: a fixed plate and a side plate. A docking assembly enables quick fixing and separation, avoiding the tedious operation of repeatedly tightening traditional screws. When the motorcycle needs maintenance, only the side plate with the docking assembly needs to be disassembled to expose the maintenance area, reducing unnecessary disassembly of parts and shortening operation time. During disassembly and assembly, the rotation of the adjusting cylinder causes the linkage screw to engage, which in turn causes the abutment plate to deflect via the sliding groove and protrusion, achieving quick locking and unlocking between the side plate and the fixed plate. This is simple, efficient, and practical. Furthermore, the airflow guide assembly directs airflow through the interior of the side plate, accelerating heat dissipation and reducing the risk of seal aging due to high temperatures.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1
[0023] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a side cover assembly for both sides of a motorcycle seat includes a fixing plate 1, a side plate 2, a docking plate 3, a snap-fit groove 4, a docking component 5, and a flow guiding component 6. The fixing plate 1 is connected and locked to both sides of the motorcycle seat, the side plate 2 is connected to one side of the fixing plate 1, the docking plate 3 is fixed to one end of the side plate 2, the snap-fit groove 4 is provided at one end of the fixing plate 1, the docking component 5 is provided on the docking plate 3, and the docking plate 3 is locked in the snap-fit groove 4 by the docking component 5. The flow guiding component 6 is provided on the side plate 2.
[0024] The docking assembly 5 includes a limiting groove 51, a clamping plate 52, an abutment plate 53, a linkage screw 54, and a linkage unit. The limiting groove 51 is disposed through the bottom of the clamping groove 4. The clamping plate 52 is fixed to the bottom of the docking plate 3 and docks with the limiting groove 51. A rectangular slot is opened on the side wall of the clamping plate 52. One end of the abutment plate 53 is rotatably connected in the rectangular slot, and the other end abuts against the fixed plate 1. The linkage screw 54 is slidably connected in the clamping plate 52. The linkage unit is disposed between the linkage screw 54 and the abutment plate 53.
[0025] The linkage unit includes a slide groove 55, a protrusion 56, and an adjusting cylinder 57. The annular slide groove 55 is provided on the side wall of the linkage screw 54. The protrusion 56 is provided on the rotating end of the abutment plate 53 and is slidably engaged in the slide groove 55. The adjusting cylinder 57 is embedded and rotatably connected in the abutment plate 3, and a thread is provided on the inner wall of the adjusting cylinder 57. The linkage screw 54 is linked and engaged with the adjusting cylinder 57 through the thread.
[0026] The airflow guiding component 6 includes an airflow guiding channel 61, a front end slot 62, and a rear end slot 63. The airflow guiding channel 61 is disposed through the side plate 2 and is provided with multiple slots at equal intervals. The front end slot 62 is disposed on the airflow guiding channel 61 near the front of the motorcycle, and the rear end slot 63 is disposed on the airflow guiding channel 61 near the rear of the motorcycle. Both the front end slot 62 and the rear end slot 63 have a Y-shaped structure.
[0027] In this utility model, the side cover is divided into two independent modules, the fixing plate 1 and the side plate 2. The docking component 5 enables quick fixing and separation, avoiding the tedious operation of repeatedly tightening screws. When the motorcycle needs maintenance, only the side plate 2 with the docking component 5 needs to be disassembled to expose the maintenance area, reducing unnecessary disassembly of parts and shortening the operation time. During disassembly and assembly, the rotation of the adjusting cylinder 57 causes the linkage screw 54 to be threaded, which in turn causes the abutment plate 53 to deflect through the sliding groove 55 and the protrusion 56, achieving quick locking and unlocking between the side plate 2 and the fixing plate 1. It is simple, efficient and practical. The airflow guide component 6 guides the airflow through the inside of the side plate 2, accelerating heat dissipation and reducing the risk of aging of the seals due to high temperature. Example 2
[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in addition to all the technical features included in Embodiment 1, this embodiment also includes:
[0029] A guide rod 58 is fixed to the end of the linkage screw 54 away from the adjusting cylinder 57. The guide rod 58 has a rectangular structure and slides with the clamping plate 52. The guide rod 58 limits the linkage screw 54 to prevent it from rotating synchronously with the adjusting cylinder 57 and thus failing to achieve threaded linkage.
[0030] Two guide plates 64 are symmetrically fixed at the bottom of the side plate 2. The guide plates 64 are located on both sides of the guide groove 61 and are U-shaped. The guide plates 64 limit the airflow direction to prevent the airflow from forming turbulence inside the component and thus failing to achieve the heat dissipation function.
[0031] Multiple positioning buckles 7 are fixed at the bottom edge of the fixing plate 1. The setting of multiple positioning buckles 7 enables the fixing plate 1 to be quickly positioned and snapped into place with the motorcycle, thus achieving pre-fixation.
[0032] Working principle: When using this motorcycle side cover, first fix the fixing plate 1 to the motorcycle by means of positioning buckle 7, and then lock it with screws. Then, connect the docking plate 3 to the snap-fit groove 4 and make the snap-fit plate 52 pass through the limiting groove 51. At this time, the side plate 2 is connected to one side of the fixing plate 1. Then rotate the adjusting cylinder 57. At this time, the linkage screw 54 is threaded and moves in the snap-fit plate 52. While sliding, the protrusion 56 drives the abutment plate 53 to move under the limiting action of the sliding groove 55, so that the abutment plate 53 unfolds, thereby achieving the limiting and locking effect between the snap-fit plate 52 and the fixing plate 1.
[0033] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
[0034] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
