Description

Metering display device for saddle-type vehicle

The present invention relates to the metering and display device that the saddle-type vehicle such as small-sized motor book is used.

Motor scooter since its purchase and maintain cost all hang down with and be used for the flexible convenient and very universal of traffic.In order to give the cyclist indication, near handle assembly, installed one or several instrument in the practice with certain running motor bike.Yet importantly, these instrument and relevant telltale thereof should be installed into the outward appearance with neat grace.Regrettably, be not all to be successful in the prior art so far for structure that this provided.

In order to improve the outward appearance of motor scooter, being everlasting is provided with handle and puts lid above the handle assembly.This can block the horizontal structure of some machines and can make the more neat grace of outward appearance.Existing proposal will be installed on this cover cap instrument or telltale so that outward appearance is neat; But telltale needs to install from the below of cover cap, and its display surface is just can see by an opening on the cover cap.This has brought the sizable difficulty that causes in assembling and in the maintenance service.

Therefore, main purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of be used for motor scooter, improved display installation structure.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of be used for motor scooter, improved telltale, and this telltale can be installed from top, and a neat graceful outward appearance can be provided again.

There is the setting of needs to deposit the storage tank of small article because these vehicles itself are very little, so be that storage tank is set below vehicle seat always., this just means that the cyclist must stop and dismantle vehicle seat, in order to take out object or object is put into storage tank from storage tank.

Therefore, a further object of the present invention is to provide a kind of be used for this type of vehicle, improved telltale installation method, and its telltale is installed on the bottom surface of cover cap, and this cover cap is used as the cover cap of storage tank simultaneously.

The present invention is applicable to the dilly of motor scooter class, and this vehicle has a vehicle seat, and above the cyclist can be sitting in, its both feet can be to forward and backward stretching, extension.Be provided with one in front portion and can make the handle assembly of vehicular drive on its motion path with vehicle.This handle assembly is provided with a cover cap.A telltale is installed on the cover cap from the top.

Fig. 1 is the lateral plan of the motor scooter that constitutes according to one embodiment of present invention.

Fig. 2 is the block diagram of expression storage tank and the vehicle control handle assembly of telltale mounting cup when opening the position.

Fig. 2 A is the enlarged view that encloses part among Fig. 2 with circle.

Fig. 3 is the cross sectional drawing that passes cover assembly, and solid line represents that storage tank is in the closed position, and dotted line represents that it opens the position.

Fig. 4 is the three-dimensional exploded view of storage tank cover and display installation structure.

At first referring to Fig. 1, what Gou Zao motor scooter was total according to one embodiment of present invention represents with label 11.Motor scooter 11 comprises a base portion of representing with label 12, and a front vehicle wheel 13 and a rear wheel 14 are hung thereon.Front vehicle wheel 13 can supported by base portion 12 with a known manner by the device that comprises the front fork of being driven by leader's assembly 16 15 with controlling.

Rear wheel 14 is positioned under the cyclist seat 17 and and comprised a rear shock absorber 19 by the suspension journal rest that a usefulness label 18 is represented.Constitute by the motion transmission assemblies of label 21 expression driving device 23 by a combustion engine 22 and a drive rear wheels 14.This motion transmission assemblies 21 is pivotably mounted on the base portion 12 in the suitable mode that can compensate rear wheel 14 suspension movements by suspension 18.

Pedal position 24 is made of the base portion 12 before the seat 17, and like this, the cyclist who is sitting on the seat can be placed on it with its both feet.

Handle assembly 16 is surrounded by a cover cap that comprises main shroud part 25, and it is shown on the block diagram among Fig. 2 and in the cross sectional drawing of Fig. 3.Specifically referring to the partial exploded view of these figure and Fig. 4, compound type storing and the display structure represented with label 26 are contained on the cover cap 25.Cover cap 25 has an opening, and this opening can be accepted one and form a plastics storage tank 27, and this plastic box constitutes an inner cavity chamber 28, wherein can place the small article of all objects " A " as shown in Figure 3 and so on.

This inner chamber 28 is surrounded by sidewall 31 and 32, antetheca 33 and rear wall 34.Diapire 35 seals into this storage tank 27 at last.On diapire 35, have a discharge port 36, to allow the water that may enter wherein discharge.

A tightening seal washer 37 sticks on the vertical upper limb of wall 31 to 34, and when cover cap 38 was in off position shown in solid line among Fig. 3, pivotable therewith cover cap of packing ring or cover part cooperated.Adopting a bolt lock mechanism 39 that cover cap 38 is remained on and storage tank 27, specifically is on the position of tightening seal washer 37 closures.

Bolt lock mechanism comprises slidably supporting lock 41 (shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 2 A) with the shank 42 that directly places cyclist the place ahead, in the cooperation position that it is slipped into and is installed in a clip 43 on cover cap 38 bottom surfaces.Cover cap 38 is bearing in its leading edge place pivotally by the hinge 44 at a pair of interval.

According to a further aspect in the invention, the metering display of representing with label 45 is installed on the cover cap 38, and its mounting means is for installing from the top of handle cover cap 25.For this reason, cover cap 38 has a transparent panel 47 in the face of the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) 48 of display part 49 on 46 in the surface thereon.This display part 49 has the flange portion of a protrusion, when cover cap 38 be in shown in Fig. 3 dotted line open the position time, with threaded fasteners 51 this flange portion is connected on the opposite sides on cover cap 38 surfaces 46.Also have a cover cap seat 52 be installed in by other threaded fasteners 53 that is screwed into cover cap 38 display part 49 around.This cover cap seat 52 has an opening that supplies lead 54 to pass through, and lead is fixed on the antetheca 33 of storage tank 27 with connecting element 55.Lead 54 passes the opening 56 on the case diapire 35 and is connected on the sensor 58 that is loaded on the car by an electrical fitting.Sensor 58 to signal output to the display part 49 of doing information processing and be presented on the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) 48.

Sensor 58 can be the sensor of an induction speed of a motor vehicle, and display part 49 enough digital forms of energy or analog system show the speed of a motor vehicle, and perhaps dual mode all can.Certainly, also can show out of Memory.

Therefore, should be readily appreciated that this device not only provides the mounting means of a kind of compact conformation and neat appearance for telltale, but also place one to be easy to allow on the position that cyclist on cyclist's vehicle seat 17 watches it.In addition, the cyclist can also store small article in the storage tank 27 below the telltale, and needn't leave vehicle seat 17.Certainly, mentioned above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, therefore, can also do multiple variation and remodeling to this, and this can not break away from by determined spirit of the present invention of appended claims and scope.
