Fig. 3 is a plan view of the brake cable protective structure for a saddle-ride type vehicle of this embodiment, seen from above the vehicle body. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along a plane defined by the front-rear direction of the vehicle body and the vehicle width direction in Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a view of the brake cable protective structure for a saddle-ride type vehicle of this embodiment, seen from the right side in the vehicle width direction.

[0020] The brake lever mount structure of this embodiment includes a brake lever bracket (hereinafter referred to as lever bracket) 32 that supports a brake lever 31 and is attached to the handlebar 2.

[0021] The lever bracket 32 ​​is attached to the handlebar 2. The lever bracket 32 ​​includes two parts, a first bracket portion 41 and a second bracket portion 42, which are made of die-cast aluminum. The first bracket portion 41 forms a mount body that supports the brake lever 31. The second bracket portion 42 forms a clamp portion that fixes the first bracket portion 41 to the handlebar 2.

[0022] The first bracket portion 41 has a semicircular arc-shaped first recess 41a that matches the shape of the outer peripheral surface of the handlebar 2, and the second bracket portion 42 has a semicircular arc-shaped second recess 42a that matches the shape of the outer peripheral surface of the handlebar 2. The first recess 41a of the first bracket portion 41 and the second recess 42a of the second bracket portion 42 are arranged opposite each other so as to sandwich the handlebar 2 therebetween.

[0023] The first bracket portion 41 has a pair of upper and lower first fastening portions 41b to which the second bracket portion 42 is attached, and the second bracket portion 42 has a pair of upper and lower second fastening portions 42b to which the first bracket portion 41 is attached. The first fastening portions 41b of the first bracket portion 41 and the second fastening portions 42b of the second bracket portion 42 are fastened to each other by fastening members 43 such as bolts and nuts in a state in which the first recessed portion 41a of the first bracket portion 41 and the second recessed portion 42a of the second bracket portion 42 are disposed opposite each other so as to sandwich the handlebar 2 therebetween. By sandwiching the handlebar 2 between the first recessed portion 41a and the second recessed portion 42b in this manner, the first bracket portion 41 and the second bracket portion 42 are firmly fixed to the handlebar 2. In addition, the first bracket portion 41 and the second bracket portion 42 may also be fixed by clamping the handlebar 2 between the first recess 41a and the second recess 42a with a semicircular arc-shaped spacer called a sleeve interposed therebetween.

[0024] The first bracket part 41 has a support part 44 that supports the brake lever 31 so that it can swing. The support part 44 is formed by a bolt and a nut that are fastened to the first bracket part 41. The brake lever 31 includes a rod-shaped lever part 51 that is gripped by the rider, and a base part 52 that widens from the base of the lever part 51. A hole part 53 is formed in the base part 52 of the brake lever 31 at a position offset from the base of the lever part 51, and the bolt of the support part 44 is passed through the hole part 53, so that the brake lever 31 is supported so that it can swing relative to the first bracket part 41.

[0025] The first bracket part 41 has a front cable holding part 45 to which a cap part 62 attached to an end (connection part) of a front brake cable 61 extending from a front brake mechanism (not shown) is locked, and a rear cable holding part 46 to which a cap part 64 attached to an end (connection part) of a rear brake cable 63 extending from a rear brake mechanism (not shown) is locked. The front cable holding part 45 and the rear cable holding part 46 are holes that pass through the first bracket part 41 toward the brake lever 31. With the cap part 62 of the front brake cable 61 locked to the front cable holding part 45, a wire (not shown) inside the cable is connected to the brake lever 31. With the cap part 64 of the rear brake cable 63 locked to the rear cable holding part 46, a wire (not shown) inside the cable is connected to the brake lever 31.

[0026] The brake lever 31 has an equalizer 47 to which a wire (not shown) inside the front brake cable 61 and a wire (not shown) inside the rear brake cable 63 are connected. The equalizer 47 is swingably supported on a base 52 of the brake lever 31 by fastening members 54 such as bolts and nuts. The equalizer 47 is fitted inside the front brake cable 61 and includes a first coupling portion 55 to which a front brake wire (not shown) extending from a front brake mechanism (not shown) is connected, and a second coupling portion 56 to which a rear brake wire (not shown) extending from a rear brake mechanism (not shown) is connected. The equalizer 47 has the function of distributing the pulling force input to the front brake wire and the rear brake wire when the brake lever 31 is operated.

[0027] The first bracket portion 41 has a switch holding portion 48 that holds a stop lamp switch 66 attached to the end of a stop lamp cable (not shown) extending from a stop lamp (not shown). The switch holding portion 48 forms an electrical contact between the brake lever 31 and the stop lamp switch 66, and is configured so that when the rider grips the brake lever 31 to enter a braking state, the stop lamp switch 66 moves away from the brake lever 31, causing a stop lamp (not shown) to light up.

[0028] A brake lock lever 67 is provided on the first bracket portion 41, which holds the brake lever 31 in the braking position without being gripped by the rider. The brake lock lever 67 is biased by a return spring 68 to hold the brake lever 31 in the braking position. The brake lock lever 67 fixes the brake lever 31 in the braking position to prevent sudden acceleration after the engine has started. To set the brake lock lever 67 to the braking position, the rider grips the brake lever 31 with his left hand while the vehicle is stopped, and then pushes the brake lock lever 67 with his right hand. To release the brake lock lever 67 to the non-braking position, the rider further grips the brake lever 31.

[0029] The first bracket portion 41 has a cover portion 70 that extends so as to protrude inward in the vehicle width direction from an inner end surface of the first bracket portion 41 in the vehicle width direction. The cover portion 70 is formed in a continuous U-shape from the front of the vehicle body to the rear of the vehicle body on the inner end surface of the first bracket portion 41 in the vehicle width direction, and covers and protects the cap portion 62 of the front brake cable 61 engaged with the front cable holding portion 45, the cap portion 64 of the rear brake cable 63 engaged with the rear cable holding portion 46, and the stop lamp switch 66 engaged with the switch holding portion 47 from above the vehicle body, improving their durability (shock resistance and waterproofness).

[0030] The cover portion 70 has an upper surface portion 71 located above the front cable holding portion 45 and the rear cable holding portion 46. When viewed from above the vehicle body (as viewed from above), the upper surface portion 71 of the cover portion 70 is positioned so as to overlap with objects to be protected, such as the front cable holding portion 45, the rear cable holding portion 46, the switch holding portion 48, the cap portion 62 of the front brake cable 61 engaged with the front cable holding portion 45, the cap portion 64 of the rear brake cable 63 engaged with the rear cable holding portion 46, and the stop lamp switch 66 engaged with the switch holding portion 47. This configuration prevents the objects to be protected from being subjected to impact from above the vehicle body when the vehicle rolls over, for example. Note that a label may be attached to the upper surface portion 71 of the cover portion 70 to display various information.

[0031] The front brake cable 61 and the rear brake cable 63 are arranged in the fore-and-aft direction of the vehicle body. More specifically, the front cable holding portion 45 is provided further forward of the vehicle body than the rear cable holding portion 46, the front cable holding portion 45 is provided further rearward of the vehicle body than the rear cable holding portion 46, the rear brake cable 63 is arranged further forward of the vehicle body than the front brake cable 61, and the front brake cable 61 is arranged further rearward of the vehicle body than the rear brake cable 63. In addition, when viewed from above the vehicle body, the cover portion 70 overlaps with the front brake cable 61 and the rear brake cable 63. With this configuration, the rigidity of the first bracket portion 41 can be increased in the same direction as the upper surface portion 71 of the cover portion 70.

[0032] The upper surface portion 71 of the cover portion 70 extends substantially parallel to the direction in which the front brake cable 61 extends from the front cable holding portion 45 to the front brake mechanism and the direction in which the rear brake cable 63 extends from the rear cable holding portion 46 to the rear brake mechanism, and extends more inward in the vehicle width direction than the cap portion 62 of the front brake cable 61 and the cap portion 64 of the rear brake cable 63. With this configuration, the cap portion 62 of the front brake cable 61 and the cap portion 64 of the rear brake cable 63 can be protected from above the vehicle body.

[0033] The cover portion 70 is open toward the front of the vehicle body from the top surface portion 71. This allows access to the cap portions 62, 64 of the brake cables 61, 63 through the gap in front of the cover portion, thereby improving durability and ensuring ease of maintenance.

[0034] The cover portion 70 includes an arc-shaped side wall portion 72 that intersects the rear end of the upper surface portion 71 in the approximately vertical direction and extends downward toward the vehicle body. This provides durability to the upper surface portion 71 of the cover portion 70 on the rear side of the vehicle body in the vertical direction.

[0035] In a top view of the vehicle body, the upper surface portion 71 of the cover portion 70 overlaps the switch holding portion 48 and the stop lamp switch 66. This makes it possible to protect the stop lamp switch 66.

[0036] The stop lamp switch 66 is disposed closer to the rear brake cable 63, which is closer to the front of the vehicle body, than the front brake cable 61, in a top view of the vehicle body. Specifically, the switch holder 48 is disposed closer to the rear cable holder 46 than the front cable holder 45, and the stop lamp switch 66 is disposed closer to the rear brake cable 63, which is closer to the front of the vehicle body, of the two brake cables 61, 63. This allows the stop lamp switch 66 to be protected by the cover 70, and by disposing the stop lamp switch 66 closer to the front of the vehicle body, the distance from the rotation axis 44 of the brake lever 31 is increased. This allows the brake lever 31 to be displaced significantly relative to the stop lamp switch 66 even when the rotation angle of the brake lever 31 is small, thereby improving the accuracy of turning the stop lamp switch 66 on and off. The stop lamp switch 66 is turned on and off when the brake lever 31 is displaced approximately 3 mm.

[0037] The sizes (diameters) of the holes in the front cable holding portion 45 and the rear cable holding portion 46 are different from each other. This makes it possible to prevent the front brake cable 61 and the rear brake cable 63 from being connected to the first bracket portion 41 incorrectly.

[0038] In addition, the lever bracket 32 ​​of this embodiment is attached to the handlebar 2 by the second bracket portion 42 with the brake lever 31, front brake cable 61, rear brake cable 63 and brake lock lever 67 pre-assembled to the first bracket portion 41.

[0039] The brake cable protection structure of this embodiment is applied to a brake lever bracket to which a brake cable and a switch cable are attached, and is applied to a brake lever bracket on the left side in the vehicle width direction that is operated by the rider's left hand, but is not limited to this and may also be applied to a brake lever bracket on the right side in the vehicle width direction that is operated by the rider's right hand.

[0040] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. For example, the saddle-ride type vehicle of the present invention is not limited to scooter-type motorcycles, and can be applied to various types of vehicles. Furthermore, the saddle-ride type vehicle 1 of this embodiment is, for example, a motorcycle powered by an internal combustion engine, but it may also be a motorcycle powered by an electric motor, or a hybrid motorcycle that combines an internal combustion engine and an electric motor. It is not limited to motorcycles, and can be applied to all saddle-ride type vehicles, such as motorized bicycles.
