[0009] A saddle-type vehicle according to one aspect of the present invention runs on the power of a main battery and a sub-battery. A low-floor board is installed on a vehicle body frame in front of a seat of the saddle-type vehicle, and a main holder and a sub-holder are installed on the floor board side by side in the vehicle width direction. The main holder holds the main battery in a detachable manner, and the sub-holder holds the sub-battery in a detachable manner. Since the main holder and the sub-holder are exposed to the outside, the main holder and the sub-holder can be easily attached and detached, and the space under the seat, such as a storage box, can be effectively used. Even if the main battery and the sub-battery are installed on the floor board, the main battery and the sub-battery are lined up in the vehicle width direction, so that a sufficient tread surface of the floor board is secured in front of the batteries. Furthermore, the main battery and the sub-battery can be selectively attached depending on the travel distance. EXAMPLES

[0010] The saddle riding type vehicle of this embodiment will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Fig. 1 is a left side view of the saddle riding type vehicle of this embodiment. Fig. 2 is a right side view of the saddle riding type vehicle of this embodiment. Note that the following figures show a state in which a body cover is removed from the saddle riding type vehicle. Also, in the following figures, the arrow Fr indicates the front of the vehicle, the arrow Re indicates the rear of the vehicle, the arrow L indicates the left side of the vehicle, and the arrow R indicates the right side of the vehicle.

[0011] 1 and 2, a low floorboard 45 is installed on the body frame 10 of the saddle-type vehicle 1 in front of the seat 41. A head pipe 11 is provided at the front end of the body frame 10, and a front frame 12 extends diagonally rearward and downward from the head pipe 11. A pair of left and right lower frames 13 are connected to the lower part of the front frame 12, and the pair of lower frames 13 extend rearward below the floorboard 45. A pair of side frames 14 rise from rear portions of the pair of lower frames 13 toward the seat 41, and upper portions of the pair of side frames 14 are bent rearward to form a seat frame 15.

[0012] A front fork 31 is steerably supported on the head pipe 11 via a steering shaft (not shown). A handle 32 is provided on the upper part of the steering shaft, and a front wheel 33 is rotatably supported on the lower part of the front fork 31. A pair of U-shaped rear frames 16 extend rearward from the pair of side frames 14, and a rear wheel 34 is rotatably supported on a pair of rear brackets 18 at the rear ends of the pair of rear frames 16. A rear fender 35 is attached to the upper parts of the rear brackets 18 and the rear frames 16, and the rear wheel 34 is covered from above by the rear fender 35.

[0013] A seat 41 is supported on the pair of seat frames 15, and a storage box 29 is installed below the seat frames 15. The storage box 29 is located inside the pair of side frames 14, and an upper access opening of the storage box 29 is covered from above by the seat 41. A floor board 45 is installed on the pair of lower frames 13, and the legs of a driver seated in the seat 41 are placed on the tread surface of the floor board 45. A battery 53 is installed via a battery holder 50 on the upper rear surface of the floor board 45, and a motor 60 is installed on the lower rear side of the floor board 45.

[0014] Although details will be described later, in the saddle riding type vehicle 1 of this embodiment, a main holder 51 and a sub-holder 52 are provided as the battery holder 50. A main battery 54 that supplies power to the motor 60 is detachably held in the main holder 51, and a sub-battery 55 that supplies backup power to the motor 60 is detachably held in the sub-holder 52. In the following, when there is no need to distinguish between the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52, they will be collectively referred to as the battery holder 50, and when there is no need to distinguish between the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55, they will be collectively referred to as the battery 53.

[0015] A drive sprocket 36 is provided on the output shaft of the motor 60, and a driven sprocket 37 is provided on the axle of the rear wheel 34. The drive sprocket 36 of the motor 60 and the driven sprocket 37 of the rear wheel 34 are connected via a chain 38. Electricity is supplied to the motor 60 from a battery 53, and the motor 60 drives the rear wheel 34 via the drive sprocket 36, the chain 38, and the driven sprocket 37. A side stand 39 is provided on the left lower frame 13, and by raising the side stand 39, the vehicle body can stand on its own while tilted to the left (one side in the vehicle width direction).

[0016] In an electric saddle-type vehicle 1, depending on the battery layout, the storage space below the seat 41 may become narrow and the ease of attaching and detaching the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 may become poor. For example, if two batteries are installed below the seat, it may be difficult to secure a sufficient storage space below the seat. Also, it may be difficult to attach and detach the two batteries in the storage space below the seat. Therefore, in the saddle-type vehicle 1 of this embodiment, the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 are installed side by side in the vehicle width direction on the floor board 45, so that the storage space below the seat 41 is secured and the ease of attaching and detaching the battery 53 is improved.

[0017] The rear structure of the saddle riding type vehicle will be described below with reference to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4. Fig. 3 is a right side view of the rear part of the vehicle body of this embodiment. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the saddle riding type vehicle of Fig. 2 taken along line AA.

[0018] 3, a seat 41 is supported on the pair of seat frames 15, and the seat 41 protrudes forward beyond the front surface of the storage box 29. In a side view, the front surface of the storage box 29 is formed parallel to the pair of side frames 14, and the storage box 29 is installed inside the body cover 26 that covers the pair of side frames 14. Inside the body cover 26, a lower portion of the storage box 29 is supported by a frame bridge 21 that connects the lower portions of the pair of side frames 14, and an upper portion of the storage box 29 is supported by a frame bridge 22 that connects the rear sides of the pair of seat frames 15.

[0019] A pair of side frames 14 rise from the rear of the floorboard 45 toward the seat 41, and the seat 41 protrudes forward beyond the pair of side frames 14. The front half of the seat 41 faces the floorboard 45, and the rear half of the floorboard 45 is covered from above by the front half of the seat 41. The pair of side frames 14 and the storage box 29 are located inside the body cover 26, and the outside of the body cover 26 is an external space sandwiched between the floorboard 45 and the seat 41 from above and below. The external space between the floorboard 45 and the seat 41 is open to the surroundings except for the rear.

[0020] A main holder 51 (see FIG. 4) and a sub-holder 52 are installed in the external space between the floor board 45 and the seat 41. A main battery 54 is held in the main holder 51, and a sub-battery 55 is held in the sub-holder 52. The pair of side frames 14 are positioned rearward of the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 so that the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 do not overlap with the side frames 14 in a side view. By exposing the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 to the outside from the body cover 26, the attachment and detachment of the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 is improved.

[0021] The main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 are positioned between the front end of the seat 41 and the side frame 14. When the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are held in the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52, the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are also positioned rearward of the front end of the seat 41. In this manner, the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are installed by utilizing the space behind the driver's legs. When the driver lowers his / her legs directly below, the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 do not interfere with the driver's legs, and a sufficient tread surface for the legs to rest on is secured on the floor board 45 in front of the seat 41.

[0022] The main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are held by the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 so as to be aligned with the side frame 14, and the inclination of the rear surfaces of the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 is approximately parallel to the inclination of the side frame 14. Also, the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are inclined forward so that their upper ends are further forward than their lower ends. By bringing the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 closer to the side frame 14 and positioning the lower ends of the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 rearward, a wide tread surface of the floorboard 45 is ensured.

[0023] The main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are installed above the floorboard 45, and a part of the motor 60 is located directly below the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55. That is, the motor 60 is installed directly below the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52, with the floorboard 45 in between. The main battery 54, the sub-battery 55, and the motor 60 are arranged vertically in a side view, so that the main battery 54, the sub-battery 55, and the motor 60 are installed compactly. By installing the motor 60 below the floorboard 45, the floorboard 45 functions as a canopy, making it difficult for rainwater to adhere to the motor 60 during rainfall.

[0024] The floorboard 45 is supported from below by a pair of lower frames 13, and the motor 60 is positioned below the lower frames 13. In addition, a base end portion 17 of the rear frame 16 is located near the boundary between the lower frame 13 and the side frames 14, and the motor 60 is positioned below the base end portion 17 of the rear frame 16. Since the motor 60, which is a heavy object, is located in a low position, the center of gravity of the vehicle body is lowered, improving driving stability. Furthermore, since the drive shaft center O1 of the motor 60 is located below the rotation shaft center O2 of the rear wheels 34 when the vehicle is stopped, the center of gravity of the vehicle body is further lowered, improving driving stability.

[0025] As shown in Fig. 4, a main holder 51 and a sub-holder 52 are installed side by side in the vehicle width direction on the floor board 45. The main holder 51 is formed in a concave shape that is open on the upper side and the left side, and the main battery 54 can be attached and detached to the main holder 51 from the left side. A pair of guide holes (not shown) are formed in the front and rear walls of the main holder 51, and a pair of guide shafts (not shown) that fit into the guide holes are formed in the lower part of the main battery 54. In addition, a holder terminal (not shown) protrudes from the bottom surface of the main holder 51, and a battery terminal (not shown) is provided in an insertion port on the bottom surface of the main battery 54.

[0026] The sub-holder 52 is formed in a concave shape that is open at the top and front, and the sub-battery 55 can be attached to and detached from the front side of the sub-holder 52. A pair of guide holes (not shown) are formed in the left and right walls of the sub-holder 52, and a pair of guide shafts (not shown) that fit into the guide holes are formed in the lower part of the sub-battery 55. In addition, a holder terminal (not shown) protrudes from the bottom surface of the sub-holder 52, and a battery terminal (not shown) is provided in an insertion port on the bottom surface of the sub-battery 55. In this way, the attachment and detachment direction of the main battery 54 to the main holder 51 and the attachment and detachment direction of the sub-battery 55 to the sub-holder 52 are different.

[0027] In this case, the main battery 54 can be attached to and detached from the main holder 51 from the side stand 39 side. The side stand 39 is provided on the left side of the vehicle body, and when the saddle-type vehicle 1 is stopped, the vehicle body is tilted to the left and stands on its own. Because the main holder 51 is tilted to the left, the main battery 54 can be smoothly attached to and detached from the main holder 51 from the left side. In addition, the sub-battery 55 can be attached to and detached from the sub-holder 52 from the front side. The sub-battery 55 is held by the sub-holder 52 in a forward-leaning position. Because the sub-holder 52 is tilted forward, the sub-battery 55 can be smoothly attached to and detached from the sub-battery 55 from the front side.

[0028] Locking mechanisms 56, 57 are provided on the right side of the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55. The locking mechanisms 56, 57 are attached to the cross plate 25 that connects the pair of side frames 14. A locking piece (not shown) is provided on each of the locking mechanisms 56, 57, and a locking hole (not shown) is provided on each of the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55. Key cylinders 58, 59 are provided on the front of the locking mechanisms 56, 57, and by rotating the key cylinders 58, 59 with a mechanical key, the locking piece fits into the locking hole, locking the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 so that they cannot be removed.

[0029] The battery layout will be described with reference to Figures 5 and 6. Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view of the rear body of the vehicle in Figure 4 taken along line BB. Figure 6 is a top view of the rear body of the vehicle in this embodiment. Note that Figure 6 shows a state in which the seat has been removed from the rear body.

[0030] As shown in Fig. 5, a motor bracket 63 is attached to the vehicle body frame 10, and a battery bracket (protrusion) 71 is attached onto the motor bracket 63. The motor bracket 63 supports the motor 60 from above, and the battery bracket 71 supports the main holder 51 (see Fig. 4) and the sub-holder 52 from below. A base plate 64 of the motor bracket 63 is formed to have an upper surface portion and both side surfaces, and the base plate 64 is positioned inside the pair of lower frames 13 with both side surfaces facing in the vehicle width direction.

[0031] The front side of the base plate 64 is screwed to the pair of lower frames 13, and the rear side of the base plate 64 is screwed to the pair of rear frames 16. A front support plate 67 is joined to the front side of the lower surface of the base plate 64, and a rear support plate 68 is joined to the center of the lower surface of the base plate 64. A front mounting portion 61 on the front side of the upper part of the motor 60 is screwed to the front support plate 67, and a rear mounting portion 62 on the upper center of the motor 60 is screwed to the rear support plate 68. In this manner, the motor 60 is attached to the vehicle body frame 10 via the motor bracket 63.

[0032] The battery bracket 71 is formed by joining a lower plate 72 and an upper plate 73 with a support member 74. The lower plate 72 of the battery bracket 71 is screwed to the upper surface of the base plate 64 of the motor bracket 63. The support member 74 stands up from the rear side of the upper surface of the lower plate 72 of the battery bracket 71. A notch 46 is formed in the rear side of the floor board 45, and the support member 74 protrudes upward beyond the floor board 45 through the notch 46. The upper plate 73 is supported on the upper end of the support member 74, and the upper plate 73 is positioned on the floor board 45.

[0033] The upper plate 73 of the battery bracket 71 is formed long in the vehicle width direction. The main holder 51 is screwed to the left side of the upper surface of the upper plate 73, and the sub-holder 52 is screwed to the right side of the upper surface of the upper plate 73. In this manner, the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 are supported by the battery bracket 71 protruding above the floor board 45 through the notch 46. The main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 can be installed regardless of the rear shape of the floor board 45. In addition, the floor board 45 protects the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 from splashes of water, flying stones, and the like from below.

[0034] The rear part of the floorboard 45 is curved upward, but the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are held by the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 so that the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are higher than the rear upper surface of the floorboard 45. The upper plate 73 of the battery bracket 71 is tilted forward on the floorboard 45, and the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 on the upper plate 73 are tilted to suppress interference between the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 and the floorboard 45. The main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are installed on the curved rear side of the floorboard 45, ensuring a wide tread surface of the floorboard 45.

[0035] As shown in Fig. 6, the front part of the floorboard 45 is cut out in a V-shape, and the rear part of the floorboard 45 is cut out in a rectangular shape (the rear cutout is not shown). The rear end 47 of the floorboard 45 is located approximately in the center of the seat 41 in the front-rear direction, and both ends 48, 49 of the floorboard 45 in the vehicle width direction are located outside the seat 41 in the vehicle width direction. The main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 are located entirely in front of the rear end 47 of the floorboard 45 and inside both ends 48, 49 of the floorboard 45 in the vehicle width direction. As a result, the floorboard 45 protects the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 as a whole from water splashes, flying stones, and the like from below.

[0036] As described above, according to the saddle-type vehicle 1 of this embodiment, the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 are exposed to the outside, which facilitates the attachment and detachment of the main holder 51 and the sub-holder 52 and allows the effective use of the space below the seat 41, such as the storage box 29. Even if the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are installed on the floor board 45, the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 are aligned in the vehicle width direction, so that a sufficient tread surface of the floor board 45 is secured in front of the battery 53. Furthermore, the main battery 54 and the sub-battery 55 can be selectively attached depending on the travel distance.

[0037] In this embodiment, the main battery is attached and detached from the left side, and the sub-battery is attached and detached from the front side, but the directions in which the main battery and the sub-battery are attached and detached to the main holder and the sub-holder are not particularly limited. For example, the main battery and the sub-battery may be attached and detached to the main holder and the sub-holder from the front side.

[0038] In addition, in this embodiment, the main battery and the sub-battery are held in an inclined state by the main holder and the sub-holder, but the holding posture of the main battery and the sub-battery is not particularly limited. For example, the main battery and the sub-battery may be held in an upright posture by the main holder and the sub-holder.

[0039] In addition, in this embodiment, the main holder is installed on the left side of the vehicle body and the sub holder is installed on the right side of the vehicle body, but the main holder may be installed on the right side of the vehicle body and the sub holder may be installed on the left side of the vehicle body.

[0040] In addition, in this embodiment, the main holder and the sub holder are supported by the battery bracket protruding upward from the floor board, but the main holder and the sub holder may be supported by a protruding portion other than the battery bracket. For example, a part of the floor board may protrude upward, and the main holder and the sub holder may be supported by the protruding portion of the floor board.

[0041] The battery layout of this embodiment is not limited to the above-mentioned saddle-ride type vehicle, and may be adopted in other saddle-ride type vehicles. Note that the saddle-ride type vehicle is not limited to all vehicles in which the rider sits astride the seat, but also includes scooter-type vehicles in which the rider does not sit astride the seat.

[0042] As described above, the first aspect is a saddle-type vehicle (1) that can run on the power of a main battery (54) and a sub-battery (55), and includes a low-floor floorboard (45) installed on the body frame (10) in front of the seat (41), a main holder (51) that detachably holds the main battery, and a sub-holder (52) that detachably holds the sub-battery, and the main holder and the sub-holder are installed side by side on the floorboard in the vehicle width direction. According to this configuration, since the main holder and the sub-holder are exposed to the outside, the main holder and the sub-holder can be easily attached and detached, and the space under the seat, such as a storage box, can be effectively used. Furthermore, even if the main battery and the sub-battery are installed on the floorboard, the main battery and the sub-battery are lined up in the vehicle width direction, so that a sufficient tread surface of the floorboard is secured in front of the batteries. Furthermore, the main battery and the sub-battery can be selectively installed depending on the traveling distance.

[0043] In the second embodiment, the vehicle body frame of the first embodiment has side frames (14) that rise from the rear of the floorboard toward the seat, and the main battery and the sub-battery are attached to the main holder and the sub-holder so as to be aligned with the side frames. With this configuration, the main battery and the sub-battery are brought close to the side frames, and a wide tread surface of the floorboard can be secured.

[0044] In the third aspect, the main holder and the sub-holder are located between the front end of the seat and the side frame in the second aspect. With this configuration, the main battery and the sub-battery can be installed using the space behind the driver's legs.

[0045] In the fourth aspect, in any one of the first to third aspects, the main holder and the sub-holder are supported by a protruding portion (battery bracket 71) protruding upward from the floorboard. With this configuration, the main holder and the sub-holder can be installed regardless of the shape of the floorboard. In addition, the floorboard protects the main battery and the sub-battery from splashes of water, flying stones, and the like from below.

[0046] In a fifth aspect, in any one of the first to fourth aspects, the main holder and the sub-holder are entirely located forward of the rear end (47) of the floorboard and inside both ends (48, 49) of the floorboard in the vehicle width direction. With this configuration, the floorboard entirely protects the main battery and the sub-battery from water splashes, flying stones, and the like from below.

[0047] A sixth aspect is any one of the first to fifth aspects, and includes a motor (60) driven by the power of the main battery and the sub-battery, and the motor is installed directly below the main holder and the sub-holder with the floorboard in between. With this configuration, the motor, the main battery, and the sub-battery are installed compactly. Also, since the motor is installed below the floorboard, rainwater is less likely to adhere to the motor when it rains.

[0048] In the seventh aspect, in any one of the first to sixth aspects, the upper ends of the main battery and the sub-battery are tilted forward relative to the lower ends. With this configuration, the lower ends of the main battery and the sub-battery are positioned rearward, thereby making it possible to ensure a wide tread surface for the floorboard.

[0049] Although the present embodiment has been described, other embodiments may be made by combining the above-described embodiments and modifications in whole or in part.

[0050] In addition, the technology of the present invention is not limited to the above examples, and may be modified, substituted, or altered in various ways without departing from the spirit of the technical idea. Furthermore, if the technical idea can be realized in a different way due to the progress of technology or a different technology derived therefrom, the invention may be implemented using that method. Therefore, the claims cover all embodiments that may be included within the scope of the technical idea. [Explanation of symbols]
