Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motorcycle technology, specifically to a fuel tank guard plate with decorative parts. Background Technology

[0002] Motorcycle fuel tanks are typically exposed on the outside of the frame. The areas on either side of the fuel tank are susceptible to damage during riding from friction with the rider's legs, external impacts, flying gravel, and side tipping. Current solutions usually involve installing fuel tank guards on both sides. These guards serve two purposes: firstly, they prevent direct external forces from impacting the fuel tank itself, protecting it from mechanical damage and corrosion, and extending its lifespan; secondly, their exposed surfaces are an important part of the overall vehicle design and must also serve a decorative function. Changing the shape, color, and materials can enhance the vehicle's appearance and improve its aesthetics and brand recognition.

[0003] In existing technologies, fuel tank protectors mainly have two structures: one is a one-piece fuel tank protector, which is made of single-layer injection molding or metal sheet in one piece, combining basic protection with simple decoration, but has low design freedom and requires replacement of the whole unit when damaged in a part; the other is a modular fuel tank protector, such as the motorcycle fuel tank side cover disclosed in CN206734494U, which discloses a fuel tank side cover including a front side cover and a rear side cover, which are connected together by a connecting part, reducing the difficulty and cost of mold making in processing and manufacturing. However, the front and rear side covers of the above-mentioned utility model are mainly fastened directly by bolts, lacking an auxiliary positioning structure, which can easily lead to misalignment and inaccurate installation position during installation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a fuel tank guard plate with decorative parts to improve the installation accuracy and aesthetics of the fuel tank guard plate.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A fuel tank liner with decorative elements includes an inner liner, an outer liner, and a decorative panel connected sequentially from the inside to the outside. The decorative panel is connected to the lower outer side of the outer liner. The outer liner has a decorative panel mounting area, and the inner side of the decorative panel is connected to the decorative panel mounting area. The outer side of the inner liner has a first decorative strip and a second decorative strip protruding outwards. The outer liner has an outer liner groove that mates with the first decorative strip, and the outer liner groove is located above the decorative panel mounting area. The decorative panel has a decorative panel groove that mates with the second decorative strip, and the decorative panel groove is located on one side of the middle of the decorative panel. The outer liner has a clearance groove for avoiding the second decorative strip, and the clearance groove is located on one side of the decorative panel mounting area. The outer side of the decorative panel has a decorative panel groove.

[0007] The principles and advantages of this scheme are:

[0008] 1. The fuel tank liner is divided into three parts: an inner liner, an outer liner, and a decorative panel. A modular design is adopted, with each part serving a specific function. The inner liner provides structural support, the outer liner provides structural support while also serving a decorative transition, and the decorative panel enhances the aesthetics. Furthermore, the modular design facilitates individual replacement of damaged components, reducing maintenance costs.

[0009] 2. The fuel tank liner is divided into three parts: inner liner, outer liner, and decorative panel. The structural complexity of a single component is lower than that of an integrated fuel tank liner, which can reduce the difficulty of mold development and manufacturing costs.

[0010] 3. The protruding portion of the first decorative strip on the inner panel engages with the slot of the outer panel, and the side wall of the first decorative strip fits tightly against the slot wall of the outer panel, forming a mechanical lock to achieve positioning and longitudinal anti-detachment of the outer panel. The clearance groove on the outer panel is used to avoid the second decorative strip. The protruding portion of the second decorative strip passes through the clearance groove and engages with the decorative panel slot. The side wall of the second decorative strip successively fits tightly against the slot wall and the decorative panel slot wall, forming a mechanical lock to achieve positioning and longitudinal anti-detachment of the decorative panel. The first decorative strip simultaneously constrains the longitudinal displacement of both the inner and outer panels, and the second decorative panel simultaneously constrains the longitudinal displacement of both the inner and outer panels, improving the installation accuracy and stability between the inner and outer panels and the decorative panels.

[0011] 4. The first decorative strip on the inner panel can pass through the outer panel slot and be exposed on the outside, and the second decorative panel can pass through the decorative panel slot and be exposed on the outside. During installation, it is possible to more intuitively observe whether the inner panel, outer panel, and decorative panel are properly connected, which significantly improves installation efficiency and accuracy. At the same time, the exposure of the first and second decorative panels creates a layered effect, enhancing the three-dimensionality and design layering of the fuel tank panel and improving its aesthetics.

[0012] Preferably, as an improvement, the inner side of the inner protective plate is provided with a plurality of mounting parts that cooperate and connect with the oil tank, and the lower part of the inner protective plate is drawn inward.

[0013] Technical Effects: This solution adopts the above-mentioned setup, connecting the inner guard plate and the fuel tank through the mounting part; the lower part of the inner guard plate tapers inward, so that when the fuel tank guard plate is installed on the fuel tank, it forms a structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, that is, the upper part of the fuel tank is wider and the lower part is narrower, which forms an "inverted triangle" outline. The curvature of the upper part can support the rider's torso well, while the narrowed lower part will not spread the legs too wide, which can better fit the rider's posture when riding, and can significantly improve riding comfort and handling fit.

[0016] Preferably, as an improvement, the outer protective plate bolt post is provided with multiple reinforcing ribs around its perimeter, and the inner protective plate bolt hole is a countersunk hole structure.

[0017] Technical Effects: The above-mentioned configuration in this solution strengthens the outer protective plate bolt column, disperses the stress of the outer protective plate bolt column, and avoids stress concentration at the root of the outer protective plate bolt column. The countersunk hole structure of the inner protective plate bolt hole allows the head of the outer protective plate bolt column to be embedded in the countersunk hole, so that there is no protrusion on the outer surface and the appearance is flat. At the same time, the stiffener fits against the countersunk hole wall, which can further improve the rigidity of the outer protective plate bolt column.

[0019] Technical benefits: This solution, with the above-mentioned design, allows the outwardly protruding decorative panel installation area to better fit the inner side of the decorative panel, providing only auxiliary positioning during installation while enhancing the three-dimensionality and aesthetics of the decorative panel. The bolt holes of the outer protective panel and the bolt posts of the decorative panel are connected to achieve pre-positioning during installation. Furthermore, placing the bolt posts of the decorative panel on the inner side of the decorative panel ensures that there are no exposed bolts on the outer side of the decorative panel when using bolts for fastening, improving the neatness and aesthetics of the appearance.

[0020] Preferably, as an improvement, the bolt holes of the outer protective plate are countersunk holes, and the outer periphery of the bolt posts of the decorative plate is provided with multiple reinforcing ribs.

[0021] Technical Effects: The above-mentioned configuration in this solution strengthens the decorative panel bolt columns, disperses their stress, and prevents stress concentration at the root of the bolt columns. The countersunk hole structure of the outer protective plate bolt holes allows the head of the decorative panel bolt columns to be embedded in the countersunk holes, resulting in a smooth outer surface without protrusions. At the same time, the fit between the reinforcing ribs and the countersunk hole wall further improves the rigidity of the decorative panel bolt columns.

[0022] Preferably, as an improvement, the bottom of the decorative groove of the decorative panel protrudes inward to the decorative panel, and the decorative panel mounting area of ​​the outer protective panel is provided with an outer protective panel positioning groove that cooperates with and connects to the protruding part of the bottom of the decorative groove of the decorative panel.

[0023] Technical effect: With the above-mentioned configuration, the protruding structure of the decorative panel groove is engaged in the positioning groove of the outer protective panel, forming a mechanical lock, thereby achieving the positioning of the decorative panel and preventing it from falling off longitudinally, and improving the stability of the decorative panel installation.

[0024] Preferably, as an improvement, the inner side of the decorative panel is provided with a decorative panel positioning post protruding inward, and the inner protective panel is provided with an inner protective panel positioning hole that cooperates with and connects to the decorative panel positioning post.

[0025] Technical benefits: The above-mentioned settings facilitate the positioning of the decorative panels, improve the accuracy of the installation position, and prevent offset or misalignment during installation. Attached Figure Description
