Description

  The present invention relates to a cover, a hose fixing structure, and a saddle riding type vehicle.

  The cover is disposed in a spout for pouring liquid on the upper surface of the tank, and has a tray-like shape on the upper surface for receiving liquid overflowing from the spout.

  With regard to such a cover, for example, in Japanese Patent No. 3164422, a tray (tray) formed of a flexible member is provided at the injection portion of the fuel tank, and a side wall that rises above the tray and curves inward is formed. It is disclosed that the side wall is pushed by the bottom plate of the sheet and bent inward when the cover is closed and brought into contact with the bottom plate. In this case, the side wall of the tray formed of the flexible member is pressed by the bottom plate of the sheet. The seat bottom plate hits the outer side surface of the side wall and does not contact the inner side surface contaminated with fuel. In addition, even if the material of the flexible member progresses and the side wall of the tray is deformed, it does not deform outward but deforms inward. In this case as well, the seat bottom plate hits the outer surface of the side wall and fuel There is no contact with the inner surface that has been soiled.

In JP-A-2003-045468, the entire upper part of the fuel tank is covered with a cover to form a concave tray, a recess is formed between the helmet box of the cover and the fuel tank, and a drain hose is connected to the bottom of the recess. Such a structure is disclosed. In this case, since the upper part of the fuel tank is covered with a cover to form a concave receiving tray, a large capacity can be secured in the receiving tray, and overflow of the gasoline from the receiving tray can be surely prevented without increasing the diameter of the drain pipe. be able to. In addition, since the entire upper portion of the fuel tank is covered with the cover, the periphery of the fuel tank is not exposed to the outside with the seat opened, and the appearance of the fuel tank is improved.
Japanese Patent No. 3164422 JP 2003-054468

  The cover as described above is a member that receives fuel overflowing from the fuel filler opening of the fuel tank during refueling and is appropriately disposed through a drain hose. For this reason, it is desirable to have sufficient capacity to receive the fuel overflowing from the fuel filler port of the fuel tank. In Japanese Patent No. 3164422, a side wall that rises above the tray and curves inward is formed, and when the sheet is closed and abutted against the bottom plate, the side wall is pushed by the bottom plate of the sheet and bent inward. This is intended to prevent the bottom plate of the seat from being contaminated with fuel. However, at the time of refueling, the side wall is not pushed by the bottom surface of the seat, so that it does not curve inward but rises upward. On the other hand, the fuel overflowing from the fuel filler port flows toward the side wall and collides with the side wall, resulting in a waved state higher than the side wall. Therefore, the undulating fuel may leak out of the cover beyond the side wall.

  In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-054468, the entire upper portion of the fuel tank is covered with a cover to form a concave tray, and a concave portion is formed between the helmet box of the cover and the fuel tank to ensure the capacity. However, this structure is formed by a structure in which a helmet box is disposed in front of the fuel tank, and such a structure may not be employed.

  The cover according to the present invention is disposed around the spout for pouring liquid on the upper surface of the tank, has a tray-like shape for receiving the liquid overflowing from the spout, and a reservoir portion for storing the liquid overflowing from the spout. Is formed. A side wall is erected around the pool part, and a ridge extends from the side wall above the pool part.

  In one embodiment, the bottom of the reservoir may be inclined so as to become deeper from the spout toward the side wall. A drain hole may be formed in the deepest part of the reservoir, and a ridge may extend above the drain hole.

  The hose fixing structure of the present invention includes a support portion that supports both sides of the hose disposed along the back surface of the resin molded product having a decorative surface on one side. The support portion extends in the direction of mold release of the resin molded product, and at least one of the support portions on both sides is provided with a retaining member that stops the hose between the support portions on both sides.

  In a certain embodiment, the space | gap which accept | permits a hose being inserted between the support part of both sides and the securing member may be formed.

  In one embodiment, a boss portion is formed on the support portion, and the retaining member may be screwed to the boss portion. In this case, the retaining member may be a washer. Further, in this case, the outer peripheral portion of the washer may be bent in a direction away from the back surface to form a gap that allows the hose to be inserted between the support portions on both sides and the washer.

  For example, when fixing a hose to the back surface of the exterior cover of a vehicle, the exterior cover may include a support portion that supports both sides of the hose disposed along the back surface. And the said support part is extended in the die cutting direction of the resin molded product, and the prevention member which stops a hose between the support parts of both sides is attached to at least one among the support parts. The exterior cover may include a guide for guiding the hose so that the outlet of the hose is disposed from the vehicle toward the road surface.

  According to the cover of the present invention, the side wall stands up around the reservoir portion where the liquid overflowing from the spout of the tank accumulates, and the ridge extends from the side wall above the reservoir portion. Therefore, even if the overflowing liquid collides with the side wall and swells, the liquid is prevented from climbing over the side wall. Since the reservoir is formed deeper than the surroundings, the capacity of the reservoir is improved.

  Further, when the bottom of the pool portion is inclined so as to become deeper from the spout toward the side wall, the liquid overflowing from the spout flows to the pool portion along the bottom slope. At this time, the liquid flowing to the reservoir portion once flows downward along the bottom inclination. When flowing to the reservoir, the liquid once flows downward along the bottom slope, so that it is difficult for the liquid to spill out of the cover beyond the ridge above the side wall. In this case, it is possible to control the flow of the liquid flowing to the pool portion, and it is difficult for the liquid to spill out of the cover beyond the ridge.

  In addition, when a drain hole is formed in the deepest part of the pool part and a ridge extends above the deepest part of the pool part, the upper part of the deepest part of the pool part where the liquid overflowing from the spout accumulates. Since there are wrinkles, it is difficult for liquid to spill out of the cover.

  Further, the hose fixing structure can be molded with a simple split mold since the support portion extends in the direction of mold release of the resin molded product. And the securing member which stops a hose between the support parts of both sides is attached to at least one of the support parts of both sides. For this reason, there is no influence on the appearance of the makeup.

  Further, in a form in which the retaining member is formed between the support portions on both sides with a gap allowing the hose to be inserted between the support portions on both sides, the retaining member is attached to the support portion, It can be attached and detached, making it easier to install hoses and perform maintenance.

  Hereinafter, the cover which concerns on this invention Embodiment 1 is demonstrated based on drawing. In the drawings, members / parts having the same action are described with the same reference numerals. Further, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiment. Further, in this specification, when “front”, “rear”, “left”, “right”, “upper”, “lower” are referred to in the state where the driver is riding in a normal riding posture. Follow the direction seen by the driver. Each drawing is shown on the assumption that it is viewed in the direction of the reference numerals.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the cover 100 is disposed so as to cover the upper portion of the fuel tank 300 disposed under the vehicle seat 200. The cover 100 is disposed around a fuel filler port 310 (pour spout) on the upper surface of the fuel tank 300 and has a tray-like shape that receives fuel overflowing from the fuel filler port 310.

  Specifically, an opening 110 that exposes the fuel filler port 310 of the fuel tank 300 is formed on the upper surface of the cover 100. The edge 111 of the opening 110 is raised upward. Further, the periphery 112 of the opening 110 around the edge 111 is slightly lower than the edge 111, and the periphery 113 is lower than the periphery 112 of the edge 111 by providing a step.

  The cover 100 is formed with a reservoir 120 in which fuel overflowing from the fuel filler port 310 is accumulated. In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the cover 100 has a lower upper surface of the fuel tank 300 on the front side, and a reservoir 120 is formed on the front side of the upper surface of the cover 100.

Around the reservoir portion 120, a front side wall 121 extending left and right and a pair of left and right side walls 122 and 123 extending front and rear are erected, and both left and right ends of the front side wall 121 and left and right side walls 122 and 123. The front end of is connected. A trough 124 is provided above the reservoir 120. The eaves 124 extend rearward from the upper end edge of the front side wall 121 over the entire width region, and the left and right ends of the eaves 124 are connected to the upper end edges of the front end portions of the left and right side walls 122 and 123. In other words, the flange 124 extends above the front side wall 121 of the cover 100 and the corners of the front side wall 121 and the left and right side walls 122, 123 above the pool part 120 on the front side of the cover 100. With this configuration, the reservoir 120 is formed with a storage space that is open only on the rear surface side (that is, on the fuel filler port 310 side).
Further, this storage space has a larger volume as the height of the side walls 121, 122, 123 and the height of the ridge 124 are increased. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Since the bottom plate of the seat 200 exists in the vicinity of the upper side, the front side wall 121 cannot be raised. Therefore, paying attention to the bottom plate of the seat 200 being inclined so as to rise upward, the height of the front side wall 121 is left as it is, and the flange 124 extending from the front side wall 121 is provided. And it was set as the form which inclines so that it may become an upward slope toward back, so that the bottom plate of the sheet | seat 200 may be followed. Thereby, the height of the rear end edge of the rod 124 (that is, the opening edge on the rear surface side of the storage space) is secured sufficiently high, and the volume of the storage space is secured large.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, the bottom 125 of the reservoir 120 is inclined so as to become deeper from the fuel filler port 310 toward the side wall 121 as shown in FIG. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the periphery 112 of the opening 110 is slightly lower than the periphery 111, and the periphery 113 is lower than the periphery 112 by providing a step. Yes. The bottom 125 of the reservoir 120 is inclined so as to become deeper from the portion 113 toward the side wall 121. FIG. 4 shows the bottom surface of the cover 100. In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a drain hole 130 is formed in the deepest part of the reservoir 120. The collar 124 extends above the deepest part of the reservoir 120.

  Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the side end portions 124 a and 124 b of the flange 124 extending above the reservoir portion 120 are continuous with the side walls 122 and 123 erected around the reservoir portion 120. Yes. As described above, the side ends 124 a and 124 b of the ridge 124 extending above the reservoir 120 are connected to the side walls 122 and 123 erected around the reservoir 120. The shape is stable while extending upward. Further, in this embodiment, the side walls 122 and 123 erected around the pool portion 120 are provided around the opening 110 where the spout 310 (see FIG. 1) is exposed from the periphery of the pool portion 120 as shown in FIG. It extends to. As a result, the fuel overflowing from the spout 310 is more reliably introduced into the pool portion 120 along the side walls 122 and 123.

  The cover 100 is made of rubber and is integrally formed. A drain hose (not shown) is connected to the drain hole 130. The drain hose may be integrated with the cover 100 by adhesion, for example.

  Further, in this embodiment, the saddle riding type vehicle 1000 is placed in an inclined state by the side stand 500 as shown in FIG. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the cover 100 is disposed around a spout 310 for pouring liquid on the upper surface of the tank 300 disposed in the saddle riding type vehicle 1000. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, a drain hole 130 is formed in the reservoir portion 120 on the side (left side) that becomes the lower side when placed in a tilted state by the side stand 500. As a result, in the saddle-ride type vehicle 1000 placed in an inclined state by the side stand 500, the fuel overflowing from the spout 310 to the accumulation portion 120 can be smoothly discharged from the drain hole 130.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the cover 100 is provided around a spout 310 (fuel supply port) for pouring fuel on the upper surface of the fuel tank 300 disposed under the seat 200 of the saddle riding type vehicle 1000. Arranged. In the state where the cover 100 is disposed around the spout 310, a reservoir 120 is formed on the front side of the spout 310. Further, side walls 121, 122, 123 are erected around the pool portion 120, and a ridge extends from the side walls 121, 122, 123 above the pool portion 120. Further, the side walls 122 and 123 erected around the pool portion 120 extend from the periphery of the pool portion 120 to the side of the spout 310.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the saddle riding type vehicle 1000 is designed so that the front side of the seat is lowered so that the driver can easily get on the seat 200 while sitting on the seat 200. Furthermore, the saddle riding type vehicle 1000 has many designs in which the rear side of the seat 200 is raised in order to keep the driver leaning forward and to secure the tandem rider's seat 200 in the rear. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 1, the upper surface of the tank 300 disposed under the seat 200 is often lower on the front side and higher on the rear side. For this reason, in the cover 100 disposed around the spout 310 for pouring fuel on the upper surface of the tank 300 disposed under the seat 200, in particular, it is possible to form the reservoir 120 on the front side of the spout 310. The front side of the sheet 200 has a lean shape that matches the shape of the lower surface of the tank 300. In this embodiment, the side walls 122 and 123 erected around the reservoir 120 extend from the periphery of the reservoir 120 to the side of the spout 310. As a result, even when the saddle riding type vehicle 1000 is tilted by the side stand 500, the fuel overflowing from the spout 310 can be appropriately guided to the reservoir 120. When the saddle riding type vehicle 1000 is inclined and placed by the side stand 500, at least on the side that is lowered when the saddle type vehicle 1000 is placed by the side stand 500, the side of the spout 310 from the periphery of the pool portion 120. The side wall 122 or the side wall 123 may extend.

  According to this cover 100, the side walls 121, 122, 123 are erected around the reservoir portion 120 where fuel overflowing from the fuel filler port 310 of the fuel tank 300 is accumulated, and the sidewalls 121, 122, 123 are disposed above the reservoir portion 120. A flange 124 extends from 123. Therefore, even if the fuel overflowing from the fuel filler port 310 and flowing forward toward the accumulation portion 120 collides with the front side wall 131 and undulates, the soot 124 exists above the undulating region. Therefore, there is no possibility that the undulating fuel will get over the side wall 121. In addition, since the reservoir 120 is formed deeper than the surroundings, the volume of the reservoir 120 is increased. Further, when the saddle riding type vehicle 1000 is stopped by the side stand 500 or the like, the saddle riding type vehicle 1000 is slightly inclined. In this embodiment, the collar 124 extends from the front side wall 121 of the cover 100 and the corners of the front side wall 121 and the left and right side walls 122 and 123 to above the pool part 120 on the front side of the cover 100. Even if the straddle-type vehicle 1000 is slightly inclined, it is possible to prevent fuel from spilling from the pool portion 120.

  Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the bottom 125 of the reservoir 120 is inclined so as to become deeper from the fuel filler port 310 toward the side wall 121. For this reason, the fuel overflowing from the fuel filler port 310 flows into the accumulation portion 120 along the inclination of the bottom 125 as indicated by an arrow a in FIG. When the fuel flows into the pool portion 120, the fuel once flows downward along the slope of the bottom 125, so that it is difficult for the fuel to spill out of the cover 100 beyond the ridge 124 above the side wall 121. Thus, in this embodiment, since the bottom 125 of the reservoir 120 is inclined so as to become deeper from the fuel filler port 310 toward the side wall 121, the flow of fuel flowing to the reservoir 120 can be controlled. It is difficult for fuel to spill out of the cover 100 beyond.

  In this embodiment, a drain hole 130 is formed in the deepest portion of the reservoir portion 120, and the flange 124 extends above the deepest portion of the reservoir portion 120. As described above, since the spear 124 is located above the deepest portion of the reservoir 120 where the fuel overflowing from the fuel filler port 310 is accumulated, it is difficult for fuel to spill out of the cover 100.

  The cover according to the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, but the cover according to the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. In particular, various modifications can be made to the specific shape and the like of the cover without changing the gist of the present invention.

  The eaves 124 are illustrated as extending from the front side wall 121 of the cover 100 and the corners of the front side wall 121 and the left and right side walls 122 and 123 to the upper side of the pool part 120 on the front side of the cover 100. The present invention is not limited to such a form. For example, the reservoir does not necessarily have to be on the front side of the cover. Although not shown in the drawings, the jar is made from the side wall with an appropriate shape at an appropriate position so as to increase the capacity of the reservoir portion of the cover and prevent liquid overflowing from the spout of the tank from spilling from the cover. It should be extended. For example, in the embodiment described above, the reservoir is formed on the front side of the cover, but the reservoir may be on the side of the cover. In particular, when the saddle type vehicle is mounted under the seat of the straddle type vehicle, when the saddle type vehicle is inclined by the side stand, the reservoir portion is provided on the lower side when the inclined type vehicle is placed by the side stand. It may be provided.

  In the embodiment described above, the cover attached around the spout on the upper surface of the fuel tank under the seat of the saddle riding type vehicle is exemplified. The cover according to the present invention is not limited to such a cover. For example, the present invention can be applied to various tank spouts such as a radiator cooling water inlet in a radiator cooling water tank and an oil inlet in an engine oil tank. The present invention can be applied to various covers having a tray-like shape that is disposed around the spout for pouring liquid on the upper surface of various tanks and receives liquid overflowing from the spout.

  As described above, the cover according to the present invention has a side wall standing around the reservoir portion where the liquid overflowing from the spout of the tank accumulates, and a soot extends from the side wall above the reservoir portion. The fuel overflowing from the tank filler is hard to spill from the cover. For this reason, it is suitable as a cover for the fuel tank of the saddle riding type vehicle. Here, the saddle riding type vehicle includes not only various vehicles riding in a saddle riding posture but also a scooter type motorcycle, a snowmobile, a four-wheel buggy, and the like.

  Hereinafter, the hose fixing structure according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, members / parts having the same action are described with the same reference numerals. Further, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiment.

  For example, a motorcycle includes a vehicle provided with a cover for receiving fuel spilled during replenishment at the fuel filler port of the fuel tank as described in the first embodiment. Such a cover includes a tray portion in which spilled fuel accumulates. A drain hole is formed in the bottom of the tray portion, and a drain hose is connected to the drain hole. As a result, the fuel spilled from the fuel filler is collected in the tray portion and discharged to the outside through the drain hole and the drain hose. Such a drain hose is usually fixed to the frame of the vehicle with a fixture or the like so as not to be violated during traveling (for example, paragraph number 0063 of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-362459 and FIG. Fig. 4 of 66937). In addition, in order to facilitate the work of disposing the drain hose, it is also disclosed that a drain hose is disposed between both tanks when the fuel tank and the oil tank are adjacent to each other (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 6). -219365).

  However, since there may be no frame at the position where the drain hose is desired, it is conceivable to fix the drain hose to the back surface of the exterior cover of the vehicle. However, the outer surface of the exterior cover constitutes the appearance of the vehicle, and is painted or mirror-finished as a decorative surface. It is not desirable to have an appearance effect on the surface (decorative surface) of the exterior cover or to reduce the strength of the exterior cover because the drain hose is fixed to the back surface. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 11, attaching the fixing tool 80 for fixing the drain hose 54 to the back surface 22 of the outer cover 56 by screwing exposes unnecessary screws on the decorative surface 21 in terms of appearance. Cannot be used when is considered important. Moreover, the strength of the decorative surface may be lowered by forming the screw hole so as to penetrate therethrough. For example, as shown in FIG. 12, guides 81 and 82 that are fixed to the back surface 22 of the exterior cover 56 of the vehicle through the drain hose 54 can be formed. However, depending on the shape of the guides 81 and 82, a part cost is increased, for example, a slide mold is required.

  In view of such circumstances, the present inventor has examined a fixing structure for hoses that does not affect the decorative surface 21 and is easy to mold. Furthermore, the present inventor has studied a structure in which a work for attaching and detaching hoses such as a drain hose is easy at the time of assembling a vehicle or during maintenance, and has come up with a completely new hose fixing structure that has never been seen before.

  Below, the fixing structure of the hose which concerns on Embodiment 2 of this invention is demonstrated.

  In this embodiment, the hose fixing structure 10 fixes the hose 30 to the back surface 22 of the resin molded product 20 having a decorative surface 21 on one side, as shown in FIG. The hose 30 is disposed along the back surface 22. The back surface 22 includes support portions 31 and 32 that support both sides of the hose 30. The support portions 31 and 32 extend in the direction of punching the resin molded product 20. A retaining member 40 that stops the hose 30 between the support portions 31 and 32 on both sides is attached to at least one of the support portions 31 and 32.

  The hose fixing structure 10 can be molded with a simple split mold because the support portions 31 and 32 extend in the die-cutting direction of the resin molded product 20 and the retaining member 40 is formed separately. . That is, although not shown, the resin molded product 20 can be molded by a pair of molds including a first mold that molds the decorative surface 21 side and a second mold that molds the back surface 22 side. The support portions 31 and 32 can be removed from the back surface 22 in the normal direction. And the securing member 40 which stops the hose 30 between the support parts 31 and 32 on both sides is attached to at least one of the support parts 31 and 32. The retaining member 40 is attached to the support portion 32, and does not affect the appearance of the decorative surface 21 in the attachment structure.

  Such a hose fixing structure 10 can be adopted as a structure for fixing various hoses. For example, in addition to the above-described fuel drain hose, air hose drain hoses, and fixed hoses such as cables can be fixed. It can be adopted as a structure.

  Specifically, in this embodiment, ribs 33 and 34 are appropriately formed on the support portions 31 and 32. A boss portion 35 is formed on one support portion 32. A screw hole 36 is formed in the boss portion 35. The retaining member 40 is composed of a washer, and is secured to the boss portion 35 with a screw 41. The washer 40 is bent in a direction in which the outer peripheral portion 42 is separated from the back surface 22. Thus, a gap 43 that allows the hose 30 to be inserted between the support portions 31 and 32 on both sides is formed.

  In this embodiment, since the gap 43 that allows the hose 30 to be inserted is formed between the support portions 31 and 32 on both sides, the retaining member 40 is attached to the support portion 32 and the hose 30 is attached. Detachable. For this reason, the operation | work at the time of attaching the hose 30 and a maintenance becomes easy. The gap 43 that allows the hose 30 to be inserted between the support portions 31 and 32 on both sides has the function of the retaining member 40 that stops the hose 30 between the support portions 31 and 32 on both sides in normal vehicle travel. It is desirable that the gap be such that the hose 30 can be attached and detached while maintaining the retaining member 40 during maintenance or the like.

  Further, in this embodiment, the boss portion 35 is formed on one support portion 32 and the washer 40 (prevention member) is attached thereto by screwing. Therefore, even when screwing, the boss portion 35 is provided. The screw hole 36 can be formed on the decorative surface 21 without affecting the appearance.

  In the above-described embodiment, the form using the washer for the retaining member 40 has been exemplified. However, since the washer is a general-purpose product, it can be obtained at low cost and is one of the suitable members as the retaining member 40 of the present invention. In particular, in this embodiment, the washer 40 (prevention member) is bent such that the outer peripheral portion 42 is bent away from the back surface 22 and allows the hose 30 to be inserted between the support portions 31 and 32 on both sides. 43 is formed. The washer has the same shape in the circumferential direction, and does not affect the gap 43 even if it is rotated when screwing, and is also one of the suitable members as the retaining member 40 of the present invention in this respect.

  The retaining member 40 is not limited to a washer, and a member having an appropriate shape for retaining the hose 30 can be employed. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 8, the retaining member can be a piece 40 a instead of a washer. In addition, although illustration is abbreviate | omitted, when using the piece material 40a, it is good to employ | adopt the rotation prevention structure which stops turning the piece material 40a. For example, a detent in which a part of the piece 40a is engaged with a part of the support portion 32 may be configured. Moreover, you may screw together the anti-rotation member which stops turning the piece 40a.

  Moreover, although screwing the retaining member has been illustrated, the retaining member mounting structure is not limited to screwing. For example, it may be bonded, or a suitable fitting structure or engagement structure may be formed between the boss portion 35 and the retaining member 40 and attached by such a fitting structure or engagement structure.

  Further, in the hose fixing structure 10, from the viewpoint of fixing the hose 30, the retaining member 40 may be attached to both the support portions 31 and 32 on both sides, or spanned on the support portions 31 and 32 on both sides. The retaining member 40 may be attached so as to pass. However, from the viewpoint that the hose 30 can be attached / detached in a state in which the operation of attaching / detaching the hose 30 is easy, that is, with the retaining member 40 attached, the retaining member 40 is attached to the support portion 32 on one side and supported on both sides. It is preferable to form a gap 43 that allows the hose 30 to be inserted between the portions 31 and 32.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment in which such a hose fixing structure is applied to an exterior cover of a vehicle will be described.

  In this embodiment, the vehicle 50 is a scooter type motorcycle as shown in FIG. The fuel tank 51 is attached to a frame 53 that supports the seat 52. The drain hose 54 is disposed from the vicinity of the fuel filler opening of the fuel tank 51 toward the lower side of the vehicle 50. A part of the drain hose 54 is fixed to the frame 53 so as to be disposed at a predetermined position, and a part of the drain hose 54 is fixed to the back surface 22 of the exterior cover 56 disposed on the side surface below the seat 52.
