Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a component support device for a motorcycle.

[Prior art]

Various electric components are attached to the motorcycle. Conventionally, the mounting position of this electrical component was
It was generally mounted on the upper surface of the rear fender as described in Japanese Patent No. 3, but from the viewpoint of maintenance work,
It had the drawback of being restricted to a narrow space at the bottom of the openable seat. In order to solve such a drawback, there has been proposed a structure in which the above-mentioned electric component is attached to a side portion of the rear frame where a relatively wide attachment position can be selected.

However, when mounting the electrical components on the side of the rear frame in this way, the metal mounting bracket is welded and mounted, so the wall thickness of the rear frame must be increased in anticipation of welding embrittlement. It was the cause of the increase.

[Object of the Invention] An object of the present invention is to provide a structure in which, when an electrical component or the like is attached to a side portion of a rear portion of a vehicle body, a rear fender is used to easily attach the electrical component without increasing the weight of the vehicle body. It is in.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a structure capable of easily performing maintenance of accessory parts such as electrical components and reducing vibration transmitted to the accessory parts.

[Structure of Invention]

The present invention to achieve the above-mentioned object, in a motorcycle in which accessory parts such as electrical components are attached to the side part of the rear part of the vehicle body, a resin-made rear fender is provided on the upper part facing the ground contact surface of the rear wheel and on the side surface of the rear wheel. Opposing side portions, and an extending portion extending from the lower edge of the side portion to the outer side of the vehicle body across the rear frame,
It is configured by a mounting bracket integrally molded to the extension portion, and the accessory is attached to the attachment bracket, and the accessory is attached to the side portion and the extension portion of the rear fender, and the side and upper portions of the accessory. It is characterized in that it is surrounded by a removable side cover that covers it.

〔Example〕

In FIG. 3, reference numeral 1 denotes a main frame of a motorcycle, in which a head tube 2 at a front end thereof has front forks 3, 3 rotatably supported left and right, and a lower end thereof has a front wheel 4 supported thereon. On the other hand, a rear frame 5 is fixed to the rear part of the main frame 1 so as to extend rearward, and both side parts thereof are covered with removable side covers 10 made of resin. Rear frame 5
The seat 6 is attached to the upper part of the, and the rear fender 8 made of resin is attached to the lower part. A rear arm 7 is swingably supported at a position below the fixed portion of the rear frame 5 at the rear portion of the main frame 1, and a rear wheel 9 is supported at its rear end.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the resin-made rear fender 8 is provided.
Has one side edge extending over the rear frame 5 to the outside,
Further, mounting brackets 12, ..., 12 are integrally formed on the extending portion 8a, and electrical components 11 ,. The side portion of the rear fender 8, the extending portion 8a and the mounting bracket 12 have a U-shaped cross section as a whole,
The rear frame 5 is sandwiched inside thereof. In such a mounting structure, the maintenance of the electric component 11 can be easily performed only by removing the side cover 10.

In the above-mentioned motorcycle, since the mounting bracket 12 of the electric component 11 is made of resin and is integrally formed with the resin-made rear fender 8, there is no welding point for the mounting bracket in the rear frame as in the conventional case. . Therefore,
It is not necessary to make the rear frame thick in anticipation of welding embrittlement, which can reduce the overall weight.

Moreover, since the mounting bracket is formed integrally with the rear fender, the number of parts is reduced, which can reduce the number of mounting steps.

〔The invention's effect〕

As described above, the present invention provides a resin-made rear fender,
An upper part facing the ground contact surface of the rear wheel, a side part facing the side surface of the rear wheel, an extending part extending from the lower edge of the side part to the outer side of the vehicle body across the rear frame, and this extending part. A mounting bracket that is integrally molded to the mounting bracket, and the accessory is attached to the mounting bracket, and the accessory is a detachable cover that covers the side and extension of the rear fender, and the side and top of the accessory. Since it is surrounded by the side cover, it has the following effects.

Since it is not necessary to weld the mounting bracket to the rear frame as in the conventional case, it is not necessary to increase the thickness of the rear frame in consideration of welding embrittlement, and thereby the weight can be reduced.

Moreover, since the mounting bracket is integrally formed with the rear fender, the number of parts is reduced, and the number of mounting steps can be reduced.

Further, since the side cover is detachably attached, by removing the side cover, the side and the upper side of the accessory are opened and largely exposed, so that maintenance of the accessory is easily performed. be able to.

Moreover, since the mounting bracket is formed integrally with the extending portion extending to the outer side of the vehicle body, it is possible to secure a work space for mounting and dismounting around the accessory, and to easily remove the accessory. Can be done.

Further, since the accessory is attached to the mounting bracket integrally formed with the resin-made rear fender,
Due to the elastic deformation of the rear fender and the mounting bracket, the vibration of the vehicle body transmitted to the accessory is damped, and the durability of the accessory can be enhanced.

In addition, since the accessory is covered with the side portion, the extension portion, and the side cover of the rear fender, it is possible to protect the accessory from mud and water splashed by the rear wheel.
