Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a saddle-ride type vehicle. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, in saddle-type vehicles, a technique is known in which a cargo hook is provided on the rear frame or the seat in order to fasten luggage to the rear of the seat. Such cargo hooks are often exposed to the outside even when not in use, and there is a risk of them getting caught and becoming a hindrance. In response to this, a technique relating to a cargo hook storage structure has been proposed (see, for example, Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2). Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose a state in which a cargo hook supported on the seat bottom plate protrudes in the width direction of the seat. In the vehicle bodies described in Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2, the cargo hook is rotatably supported on the seat bottom plate, and is rotatably supported between a deployed position deployed in the width direction of the seat and a stored position along the inner surface of the seat bottom plate. [Prior art documents] [Non-patent literature]

[0004] Generally, the seat bottom plate of a seat has an outer peripheral wall portion extending downward. For this reason, as described in Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2, in a configuration in which a bent rod-shaped cargo hook is supported on the seat bottom plate, a hook escape portion having a notch shape is provided on the outer peripheral wall surface of the seat bottom plate, and the cargo hook is held in the deployed position through this hook escape portion. However, there is a problem that the hook escape portion is likely to affect the appearance, and the seat bottom plate is likely to become heavy in order to ensure the rigidity of the seat bottom plate. The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned circumstances, and aims to provide a saddle-type vehicle that can be made lighter while ensuring the rigidity of the seat bottom plate, and has little impact on the appearance. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] A saddle-ride type vehicle in which a cargo strap member is stored on the underside of a seat comprises cargo strap member mounting portions provided on at least the left and right sides of the underside of the seat, ring-shaped cargo strap members attached to each of the cargo strap member mounting portions, and on-board tools stored on the underside of the seat so that their longitudinal direction is in the fore-and-aft direction of the vehicle body, the cargo strap members being mounted so as to be movable between a deployed position in which they are deployed outboard in the vehicle body width direction from the sides of the seat and a stored position in which they are stored inboard in the vehicle body width direction from the sides of the seat, and the cargo strap members are hooked onto the on-board tools to be held in the stored position. Effect of the Invention

[0006] It is possible to provide a saddle-type vehicle that can achieve weight reduction while ensuring the rigidity of the seat bottom plate and has little effect on the appearance. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0008] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the description, directions such as front, rear, left, right, up and down are the same as directions relative to the vehicle body unless otherwise specified. In addition, the symbol FR in each drawing indicates the front of the vehicle body, the symbol UP indicates the upper side of the vehicle body, and the symbol LH indicates the left side of the vehicle body.

[0009] [Embodiment Mode] FIG. 1 is a side view of a saddle-ride type vehicle 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The saddle-type vehicle 10 is a vehicle that includes a body frame 11, a power unit 12 supported by the body frame 11, a front fork 14 that supports a front wheel 13 so as to be steerable, a swing arm 16 that supports a rear wheel 15, and a seat 17 for a passenger. The saddle-ride type vehicle 10 is a vehicle in which a rider sits astride a seat 17. The seat 17 is provided above the rear part of the body frame 11.

[0010] The body frame 11 includes a head pipe 18 provided at the front end of the body frame 11, a front frame 19 located rearward of the head pipe 18, and a rear frame 20 located rearward of the front frame 19. The front end of the front frame 19 is connected to the head pipe 18. The seat 17 is supported by a rear frame 20 .

[0011] The front fork 14 is supported by a head pipe 18 so as to be steerable left and right. The front wheel 13 is supported by an axle 13a provided at the lower end of the front fork 14. A steering handle 21 that is held by a rider is attached to the upper end of the front fork 14.

[0012] The swing arm 16 is supported by a pivot shaft 22 that is supported by the body frame 11. The pivot shaft 22 is a shaft that extends horizontally in the vehicle width direction. The pivot shaft 22 is inserted into the front end of the swing arm 16. The swing arm 16 swings up and down about the pivot shaft 22. The rear wheel 15 is supported by an axle 15 a provided at the rear end of a swing arm 16 .

[0013] The power unit 12 is disposed between the front wheels 13 and the rear wheels 15 and is supported by the body frame 11. The power unit 12 is an internal combustion engine. The power unit 12 includes a crankcase 23 and a cylinder portion 24 that houses a reciprocating piston. An exhaust device 25 is connected to an exhaust port of the cylinder portion 24. The output of the power unit 12 is transmitted to the rear wheels 15 by a driving force transmission member that connects the power unit 12 and the rear wheels 15 .

[0014] The saddle-ride type vehicle 10 also includes a front fender 26 that covers the front wheel 13 from above, a rear fender 27 that covers the rear wheel 15 from above, a step 28 on which a rider places his or her feet, and a fuel tank 29 that stores fuel used by the power unit 12. The front fender 26 is attached to the front fork 14. The rear fender 27 and the step 28 are provided below the seat 17. The fuel tank 29 is supported by the body frame 11.

[0015] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the body frame 11 according to the embodiment. The front frame 19 in this embodiment comprises a main frame 31 extending downward and rearward from the head pipe 18, a pivot frame 32 extending downward from the rear end of the main frame 31, a down frame 33 extending downward from a position on the head pipe 18 below the front end of the main frame 31, and a gusset 34 that reinforces the connection between the head pipe 18, the main frame 31 and the down frame 33.

[0016] The rear frame 20 comprises a pair of left and right seat frames 41 extending from the rear of the main frame 31 to the rear end of the vehicle body, a pair of left and right rear subframes 42 extending from the vertical middle of the left and right pivot frames 32 to the rear ends of the seat frames 41, a rear front cross member 43 connecting the front ends of the pair of left and right seat frames 41 in the left-right direction, a rear rear cross member 44 connecting the rear ends of the pair of left and right seat frames 41 in the left-right direction, and a seat engagement portion 45 formed between the rear front cross member 43 and the rear rear cross member 44.

[0017] A unit bracket 35 is formed at the lower end of the down frame 33. The unit bracket 35 is in the form of a bent plate with an open rear end. The power unit 12 is fixed to the unit bracket 35. In detail, the front end of the crankcase 23 of the power unit 12 is fixed to the unit bracket 35 by a shaft-shaped fastener extending in the vehicle width direction. A unit bracket 36 (see FIG. 1) is formed at the lower end of the pivot frame 32. The power unit 12 is fixed to the unit bracket 36. In detail, the rear end of the crankcase 23 of the power unit 12 is fixed to the unit bracket 36 by a shaft-shaped fastener extending in the vehicle width direction. Therefore, in the body frame 11, the down frame 33 and the pivot frame 32 are connected by the power unit 12, which is an example of a rigid member. The down frame 33 and the pivot frame 32 are connected via the power unit 12, and the body frame 11 of this embodiment is a backbone frame.

[0018] 1, a body cover 50 is supported on the body frame 11. The body cover 50 includes a tank cover 51 that covers the fuel tank 29, a pair of left and right center covers 52 that are provided below the tank cover 51 and cover the vehicle body from the outside in the left and right direction, a pair of left and right rear covers 53 that are behind the center cover 52 and cover the underside of the seat 17 from the outside in the left and right direction, and a lower cover 54 that is disposed below and spaced apart from the center cover 52 and covers the front end part of the power unit 12 from the front.

[0019] FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the sheet 17 according to the embodiment. The seat 17 extends in the front-rear direction. A front end 17a of the seat 17 is inclined downward toward the rear along the back surface of the tank cover 51. A front portion 17b and a rear portion 17c of the seat 17 are horizontal or inclined slightly upward toward the rear. A driver (passenger) can sit on the front portion 17b of the seat 17. A passenger (passenger) can sit on the rear portion 17c of the seat 17. Luggage can also be placed on and tied to the rear portion 17c of the seat 17.

[0020] The seat 17 includes a seat bottom plate 60 that constitutes the rear surface of the seat 17, a cushion 70 supported by the seat bottom plate 60, and a seat cover 80 that covers the cushion 70 and is fixed to the seat bottom plate 60. The seat 17 is supported by the rear frame 20 in a detachable manner.

[0021] Fig. 4 is a bottom view of the seat 17 according to the embodiment. In Fig. 4, members and parts other than the seat bottom plate 60 are appropriately indicated by dots. The seat bottom plate 60 of this embodiment is a resin part. When viewed from the bottom, the seat bottom plate 60 has an oval shape extending in the front-rear direction. The seat bottom plate 60 has a shallow container shape with an upward recess. That is, the seat bottom plate 60 has a plate-shaped main body portion 61 that has a thickness in the up-down direction and extends in the front-rear direction, and an outer peripheral wall portion 62 that protrudes downward from the outer periphery of the main body portion 61.

[0022] The seat bottom plate 60 is formed with a plurality of ribs 60a extending in the front-rear and left-right directions. This makes it easy to ensure the appropriate rigidity of the seat bottom plate 60. A protrusion 63 that abuts against the tank cover 51 is formed in the center of the front end of the seat bottom plate 60 in the vehicle width direction. In addition, the seat bottom plate 60 is provided with abutment portions 71 and 72 that abut against the seat frame 41, the rear front cross member 43, and the rear rear cross member 44 of the body frame 11. The abutment portions 71 and 72 are made of, for example, rubber. When the seat 17 is attached to the body frame 11, the abutment portions 71 and 72 are abutted against the body frame 11 and compressed. This suppresses rattling when the seat 17 is attached.

[0023] A tandem belt 81 is fixed to the center in the front-rear direction of the seat bottom plate 60. The tandem belt 81 passes from the upper surface of the seat 17 to the left and right of the seat 17 so as to be wound around the seat 17 and is disposed on the underside of the seat 17. Both left and right ends of the tandem belt 81 are each fixed to the seat bottom plate 60. Specifically, both ends of the tandem belt 81 are fixed by bolts (fixing devices) 75 in a state where they are pressed against the seat bottom plate 60 by seat engagement stays 74.

[0024] The seat engagement stay 74 has an engagement portion 74a that extends downward from the seat bottom plate 60 and has a lower end that protrudes forward. This engagement portion 74a is inserted into the seat engagement portion 45 (see FIG. 2) of the seat frame 41 from the rear. This restricts the seat 17 from moving forward and upward, and temporarily fastens the seat 17 to the rear frame 20.

[0025] A lock engagement portion 76 formed in an annular shape is provided at the rear of the seat bottom plate 60. When the seat 17 is placed on the rear frame 20, the lock engagement portion 76 penetrates an elongated hole 44a (see FIG. 2) formed in the rear rear cross member 44 and enters below the rear rear cross member 44. A seat lock mechanism (not shown) is disposed on the underside of the rear rear cross member 44. The seat lock mechanism engages with the penetrated lock engagement portion 76 to lock the seat 17. That is, the seat engagement stay 74 and the lock engagement portion 76 prevent the seat 17 from being detached from the vehicle body frame 11.

[0026] At this time, the seat lock mechanism is unlocked by performing a predetermined operation. This allows the rear portion 17c of the seat 17 to be lifted. This allows the engagement portion 74a of the seat engagement stay 74 to be removed from the seat engagement portion 45 by moving the lock engagement portion 76 above the rear cross member 44 and moving the seat 17 rearward. In other words, the seat 17 can be removed from the body frame 11.

[0027] Various on-board tools 91-97 are supported on the seat bottom plate 60 of this embodiment. That is, various on-board tool support parts 64a, 64b, 65-69 are formed on the seat bottom plate 60. The on-board tool support parts 64a-69 are formed in a claw shape, an insertion hole shape, or the like according to the shapes of the on-board tools 91-97. The on-board tool support parts 64a-69 are elastically deformed in the claw shape, and support the on-board tools 91-97 in a state of being pressed in, so to speak.

[0028] A plurality of front on-board tool support parts 64a, 64b, 65 are formed in the center of the seat bottom plate 60 in the front-rear direction. The on-board tool support parts 64a, 64b, 65 are formed between the left abutment parts 71, 72 and the right abutment parts 71, 72. The on-board tool support parts 64a, 64b, 65 support a handle 91 of a hook wrench 96, a handle 92 of an interchangeable screwdriver 94, and a pulling tool 93. In particular, the handle 91 and the handle 92 are supported so that their longitudinal directions are in the left-right direction.

[0029] A plurality of rear on-board tool support portions 66-69 are formed behind the front on-board tool support portions 64a, 64b, 65. The on-board tool support portions 66-69 are formed between the left abutment portions 71, 72 and the right abutment portions 71, 72. An interchangeable driver 94, a spanner 95, a hook wrench 96, and a hexagonal wrench 97 are supported on the on-board tool support portions 66-69. The interchangeable driver 94, the spanner 95, the hook wrench 96, and the hexagonal wrench 97 are supported so that their longitudinal directions are in the front-rear direction.

[0030] Here, in this embodiment, among these four on-board tools 94 to 97, the interchangeable driver (first on-board tool) 94 is disposed at the right end (one end in the vehicle width direction, the outermost end). The interchangeable driver 94 is an on-board tool that extends like an axis having a longitudinal shape. At least a portion of the interchangeable driver 94 has the same radial size, and portions having the same radial size are continuously formed in the longitudinal direction. The interchangeable driver 94 has a smaller cross-sectional shape than the spanner 95 and the hook wrench 96. In other words, the diameter is small.

[0031] Among these four on-board tools 94 to 97, a hexagonal wrench (first on-board tool) 97 is disposed at the left end (the other end in the vehicle width direction, the outermost end). The hexagonal wrench 97 is an on-board tool that extends like a shaft having a longitudinal shape. At least a portion of the hexagonal wrench 97 has the same radial size, and portions with the same radial size are continuously formed in the longitudinal direction. The hexagonal wrench 97 has a shape in which the shaft-shaped portion is bent into a substantially L-shape. The hexagonal wrench 97 has a smaller cross-sectional shape than the spanner 95 and the hook wrench 96. In other words, the diameter is smaller. The front end of the hexagonal wrench 97 is supported so as to be at approximately the same front-to-rear position as the front end of the interchangeable screwdriver 94 .

[0032] Therefore, among these four on-board tools 94 to 97 , the spanner (second on-board tool) 95 and the hook wrench (second on-board tool) 96 are disposed between the interchangeable driver 94 and the hexagonal wrench 97 .

[0033] The wrench 95 includes a flat longitudinal portion 95a having a longitudinal shape, a one-end engaging portion 95b formed at one end of the longitudinal portion 95a and having a width larger than that of the longitudinal portion 95a, and an other-end engaging portion 95c formed at the other end of the longitudinal portion 95a and having a width larger than that of the longitudinal portion 95a. The wrench 95 is supported by the on-board tool support portion 67 so that the thickness direction is the up-down direction. In this embodiment, the one-end engaging portion 95b is supported so that it is at approximately the same front-rear position as the front end of the interchangeable screwdriver 94.

[0034] The hook wrench 96 has a longitudinal, flat, longitudinal portion 96a and a hook portion (engagement portion) 96b formed at one end of the longitudinal portion 96a. The hook portion 96b is formed in an arc shape that protrudes in the width direction beyond the longitudinal portion 96a. A claw portion 96b1 is formed at the front end of the hook portion 96b. A jaw portion 96b2 is formed at the rear end of the hook portion 96b. The jaw portion 96b2 has a shape that protrudes in the width direction beyond the longitudinal portion 96a. The hook wrench 96 is supported by the on-board tool support portion 68 so that the thickness direction is the up-down direction.

[0035] In this embodiment, the hook wrench 96 has a long portion 96a located forward of the lock engagement portion 76. Also, the jaw portion 96b2 of the hook portion 96b of the hook wrench 96 is located forward of one-end engagement portion 95b of the spanner 95. Thus, the range A1 occupied by the hook portion 96b in the vehicle width direction and the range A2 occupied by the spanner 95 in the vehicle width direction at least partially overlap. As a result, the spanner 95 and the hook wrench 96, which have uneven shapes in the vehicle width direction, are arranged so as to compensate for each other's unevenness, and the spanner 95 and the hook wrench 96 are efficiently arranged on the seat bottom plate 60.

[0036] Belt fixing parts (hanging strap member attachment parts) 82, 83 are formed on the outer side of the on-board tool support parts 64-69 in the vehicle width direction. The belt fixing parts 82, 83 are formed on both sides of the on-board tool support parts 64-69 in the vehicle width direction. That is, the belt fixing parts 82, 83 are formed in a pair on the left and right of the seat bottom plate 60. In this embodiment, the belt fixing parts 82, 83 are rearward of the fixing position of the tandem belt 81, that is, the mounting position of the bolt 75. The belt fixing parts 82, 83 are formed in front of the rear abutment part 71. The belt fixing parts 82, 83 are located forward of the rear cross member 44. The belt fixing parts 82, 83 are formed at approximately the same front-rear position as the front ends of the first on-board tools 94, 97. The belt fixing parts 82, 83 have hanging belts (hanging strap members) 101, 102 fixed thereto. The cargo straps 101 and 102 are fixed to form a loop shape.

[0037] The hanging belts 101, 102 in this embodiment are made of a belt-like member of a predetermined length. The hanging belts 101, 102 are folded back and fixed to the belt fixing parts 82, 83 with both ends overlapping each other by rivets (fixing devices) 103, 104. As a result, the hanging belts 101, 102 are connected at both ends to form a loop shape. For example, a rope for tying a baggage above the seat 17 is passed through the inside of the loop shape of the hanging belts 101, 102. In this embodiment, the hanging belts 101, 102 extend along the vehicle width direction and are fixed to the rivets 103, 104 in a state where they protrude from the seat bottom plate 60 in the vehicle width direction. The hanging belts 101, 102 may be fixed with bolts instead of the rivets 103, 104.

[0038] Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the rear portion of the seat bottom plate 60 according to the embodiment, as viewed from below and in front. In Fig. 5, members and parts other than the seat bottom plate 60 are appropriately indicated by dots. The folded-back portions of the load-hanging belts 101 and 102, i.e., the tip portions 101a and 102a that are far from the rivets 103 and 104, are movable relative to the portions fixed by the rivets 103 and 104. The load-hanging belts 101 and 102 are formed to a length that allows them to be exposed to the outside of the seat bottom plate 60 in a bottom view, and to a length that allows them to reach any of the on-board tools 94 to 97 on the inside in the vehicle width direction when folded to the opposite side, i.e., when folded to cover the rivets 103 and 104. The load-hanging belts 101 and 102 are attached to be movable between an expanded position (see the solid line in FIG. 4 and the two-dot chain line in FIG. 5) where they are expanded outward in the vehicle width direction from the side of the seat 17, and a stored position (see the two-dot chain line in FIG. 4 and the solid line in FIG. 5) where they are stored inward in the vehicle width direction from the side of the seat 17. In this embodiment, when the load-hanging belts 101, 102 are in the stored position, the first on-board tool 94, 97 is passed inside the tip portions 101a, 102a, so that the load-hanging belts 101, 102 are held in the stored position with the load-hanging belts 101, 102 hooked onto the first on-board tool 94, 97.

[0039] Fig. 6 is an explanatory diagram of the prior art, and Fig. 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along line VII-VII in Fig. 6. In the seat B17 of the prior art, the seat bottom plate B60 is provided with cargo hooks B101 and B102 in the form of bent metal rods as cargo hanging members. The cargo hooks B101 and B102 are supported to be rotatable between a deployed position shown by a solid line in which the cargo hooks are deployed from the sides of the seat B17 outward in the vehicle width direction, and a stored position shown by a dashed line in which the cargo hooks are stored below the seat bottom plate B60. Here, as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 7, if the cargo hook B101 is bent to avoid the outer peripheral wall portion B62 of the seat bottom plate B60, the cargo hook B101 cannot be aligned along the seat bottom plate B60 in the stored position. That is, the storability of the cargo hooks B101 and B102 is deteriorated. For this reason, the outer peripheral wall portion B62 of the seat bottom plate B60 is provided with a hook recess B62a that is cut from below to above, thereby making it possible for the cargo hooks B101, B102 to be shaped so as to fit along the seat bottom plate B60.

[0040] However, when the hook escape portion B62a is provided, the notch shape of the hook escape portion B62a may reduce the rigidity of the outer peripheral wall portion B62. In order to suppress the thickness of the rear portion of the seat B17 from the viewpoint of design, it is necessary to ensure the rigidity at a portion other than the rear portion, which tends to increase the weight of the seat bottom plate B60. In addition, when the hook escape portion B62a is provided, when the seat cover B80 covers the cushion B70 and is fixed to the seat bottom plate B60, the seat cover 80 is recessed at the hook escape portion B62a, which tends to deteriorate the appearance.

[0041] In other words, with the conventional cargo hooks B101, B102 in the form of a bent metal rod, there were problems such as an increase in the weight of the seat B17 in order to deal with the reduced rigidity of the seat bottom plate B60, a decrease in ride comfort due to the discontinuous cross-section of the hook escape portion B62a, and a deterioration in appearance due to the appearance of the hook escape portion B62a being exposed when the cargo hooks B101, B102 are stored.

[0042] In contrast, in the present embodiment, flexible hanging belts 101, 102 are used as the hanging members, and by bending the hanging belts 101, 102, they can be easily deployed beyond the outer peripheral wall portion 62 of the seat bottom plate 60. Therefore, it is not necessary to form a notch shape for passing the hanging belts 101, 102 in the outer peripheral wall portion 62 of the seat bottom plate 60. This makes it possible to prevent the usability and riding comfort of the seat 17 from being impaired. In addition, even if the hanging belts 101, 102 are held in the stored position, the appearance can be improved because there is no notch shape. Furthermore, the seat bottom plate 60 can be easily formed into a cross-sectional shape that uses resin efficiently, and the seat 17 can be made lighter. Therefore, the manufacturing cost can be reduced accordingly.

[0043] In addition, by using the on-board tools 94-97 mounted on the seat bottom plate 60 when holding the hanging belts 101, 102 in the stored position, it is not necessary to provide a member or shape dedicated to storing the hanging belts 101, 102. In other words, there is no need to deal with measures such as reducing the rigidity of the seat bottom plate due to the creation of a large hole dedicated to storage, or adding a slide structure. Therefore, in this embodiment, the hanging belts 101, 102 can be stored while improving the rigidity of the seat bottom plate 60 with a simple configuration.

[0044] In particular, in this embodiment, the hanging belts 101, 102 can be hooked onto the first on-board tools 94, 97 having a relatively small shaft diameter, such as the interchangeable screwdriver 94 and the hexagonal wrench 97. Therefore, in the storage position, the hanging belts 101, 102 can be easily hooked onto the first on-board tools 94, 97 without significantly widening the loop shape of the hanging belts 101, 102, making storage easy.

[0045] As described above, according to this embodiment to which the present invention is applied, in a saddle-type vehicle 10 in which cargo straps 101, 102 are stored behind a seat 17, the vehicle is provided with at least a pair of belt fixing parts 82, 83 provided on the left and right sides behind the seat 17, loop-shaped cargo straps 101, 102 attached to the belt fixing parts 82, 83, respectively, and on-board tools 94, 95, 96, 97 stored behind the seat 17 so as to be longitudinal in the fore-and-aft direction of the vehicle body, and the cargo straps 101, 102 are attached so as to be movable between a deployed position in which they are deployed outboard of the sides of the seat 17 in the vehicle width direction and a stored position in which they are stored inboard of the sides of the seat 17 in the vehicle width direction, and the cargo straps 101, 102 are hooked onto the on-board tools 94-97 and held in the stored position.
