FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line III--III in FIG. 1, and shows a partial sectional view of the electrical component 51 along with the surrounding structure as seen from the front of the vehicle body. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line IV-IV in FIG. 2, and shows a partial cross-sectional view of the electrical component 51 and its surrounding components as seen from the left side of the vehicle body. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line VV in FIG. 4, and shows a partial cross-sectional view of the electrical component 51 along with its peripheral components as viewed diagonally from above.
The electrical component 51 is a box-shaped electrical component that includes a circuit board and the like, and is formed into a trapezoidal shape that is relatively long in the vehicle width direction when viewed from the front of the vehicle body. As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the inner cover 35 is integrally provided with a protrusion 35T that protrudes forward, and the electrical component 51 is supported by the protrusion 35T via a support stay 35S. A cover 52 (hereinafter referred to as "electrical component cover 52") that covers the electrical component 51 from the front is attached to the inner cover 35.

The electrical component cover 52 is provided with a passage hole 52H (hereinafter referred to as "socket passage hole 52H") below the electrical component 51, through which the USB socket 46 passes. The socket passage hole 52H is located forward and below the hole 35B of the inner cover 35, and holds the USB socket 46 in an upwardly rearward position. As a result, the rear end surface of the USB socket 46 (the surface having the USB port) is directed toward the passenger side.

As shown in FIG. 3, at least a portion of the socket passage hole 52H is located below the electrical component 51 within the width W1 of the electrical component 51. As shown in FIG. Note that the width W1 of the electrical component 51 along the vehicle width direction is longer than the diameter of the socket passage hole 52H and the diameter of the USB socket 46.
The electrical component 51 is inclined so that the lower surface 51L of the electrical component 51 becomes higher toward the socket passage hole 52H in the vehicle width direction. Thereby, a space for arranging the USB socket 46 is secured below the electrical component 51. Note that the width W1 of the electrical component 51 along the vehicle width direction is longer than the diameter of the USB socket 46.

In other words, by arranging the electrical component 51 at an angle as described above, the portion of the electrical component 51 on the side opposite to the socket passage hole 52H (corresponding to the outside in the vehicle width direction) is arranged at a relatively low position. . As a result, the space on the outside in the vehicle width direction with respect to the socket passage hole 52H is effectively used as a space for arranging the electrical component 51 and a space for arranging the harness 55, which is necessary for arranging the USB socket 46, the electrical component 51, and the harness 55. This makes it easier to make the space more compact in the vehicle width direction. Further, since the harness 55 is arranged below the electrical component 51, the harness length can be made shorter than when the harness 55 is arranged above or to the side of the electrical component 51.

FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along the line VI-VI in FIG. 4, and shows a partial sectional view of the electrical component 51 along with the surrounding components as seen from the front side of the vehicle body.
As shown in FIGS. 6 and 4, a harness 55 is connected to the lower surface 51L of the electrical component 51 via a connector 54. This harness 55 is a bundle of a plurality of wires connected to the electrical component 51, and passes through the space below the electrical component 51 (range of width W1 shown in FIG. 3) and outside the socket passage hole 52H in the vehicle width direction. It extends toward the head pipe 18 side, and is routed along the vehicle body frame 11 and the like toward each part of the vehicle body (battery, fuel supply system, ignition system, etc.). Since the periphery of the connector 54 is also covered by the electrical component cover 52, it is possible to sufficiently prevent moisture such as rainwater from adhering to the connector 54 and the like.

Next, the electrical component cover 52 will be explained in detail.
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the electrical component cover 52 includes a front cover part 52F that covers the front of the electrical component 51, an upper cover part 52U that covers the upper part of the electrical component 51, and an upper cover part 52U that covers the electrical component 51 on the outside in the vehicle width direction. It integrally includes a side cover part 52S that covers the electrical component 51 from below, and a lower cover part 52L that covers the electrical component 51 from below. The electrical component cover 52 is manufactured, for example, by integral molding using a resin material. The material of the electrical component cover 52 does not need to be limited to a resin material, and any suitable material that can prevent moisture from entering can be used.

7 is a sectional view taken along VII-VII in FIG. 1, and FIG. 8 is a sectional view taken along VIII-VIII in FIG.
As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, when viewed from the bottom of the vehicle body, a region corresponding to the electrical component cover 52 is exposed downward. That is, a lower opening 66K is formed between the front cover 33 and the inner cover 35 for passing the front fork 14 and the like extending in the vertical direction of the vehicle body. At least a portion of the electrical component cover 52 is located in an area overlapping with the electrical component cover 52. More specifically, in the area of the lower opening 66K, a portion of the electrical component cover 52 is exposed below the vehicle body in an area behind the bottom bridge 39 and in front of the radiator 40.
In addition, in FIG. 8, the outlines of the front wheel 13, the bottom bridge 39, and the radiator 40 are shown by two-dot chain lines in order to make the explanation easier to understand.

As described above, the electrical component cover 52 has the lower cover portion 52L that covers the electrical component 51 from below, so the electrical component 51 is not exposed below when viewed from the bottom of the vehicle body, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8. Therefore, the lower cover portion 52L can prevent the electrical components 51 from being exposed to moisture such as water splashed from around the front wheels 13 or water from washing the car.
Furthermore, since the electrical component cover 52 also includes a front cover portion 52F, an upper cover portion 52U, and a side cover portion 52S that cover the front side of the electrical component 51, moisture from various directions may adhere to the electrical component 51. can be effectively prevented.

In this way, even if rainwater or the like intrudes into the space surrounded by the front cover 33 and the inner cover 35, the electrical component cover 52 prevents moisture from the outside from adhering to the electrical component 51.
Further, the electrical component cover 52 functions as a protective wall that prevents access to the electrical component 51 from the front, above, outside in the vehicle width direction, and the like. This can prevent unintentional third parties from accessing the electrical component 51 or removing the electrical component 51. Further, even if there is a flying object from the front or the like, the electrical component cover 52 can prevent the electrical component 51 from being affected.

Further, since the electrical component cover 52 is opened at least to the rear, heat from the electrical component 51 can be released to the rear of the electrical component cover 52, and a rise in temperature of the electrical component 51 can be sufficiently suppressed. As shown in FIG. 4, the electrical component cover 52 is located between the electrical component 51 and the light unit 38, so it is a heat shielding member that prevents heat from the light unit 38 etc. from being transmitted to the electrical component 51. It can also function as

As shown in FIG. 3, the electrical component cover 52 is attached to the inner cover 35 by fastening a plurality of (three in this configuration) fastening members 61 from the front. More specifically, among the four corners of the front cover part 52F, the area corresponds to the upper and lower corners located on the inside in the vehicle width direction, and the corner located on the outside and lower part in the vehicle width direction. These regions are each fixed to the inner cover 35 by fastening members 61.

Among the four corners of the front cover portion 52F, the corner regions to which the fastening members 61 for fixing the electrical component cover 52 are not fastened, that is, the corner regions located on the outer and upper side in the vehicle width direction are , a fastened portion 62 (see FIGS. 3 and 4) to which a single fastening member 61 can be fastened is provided. A stay 65S that supports the horn 65 is attached to the electrical component cover 52 by a fastening member 63 to the fastened portion 62.
The horn 65 is an audio output device that outputs a warning sound to the surroundings including the front of the vehicle body. Since the stay 65S that supports the horn 65 is attached to the electrical component cover 52, there is no need to separately provide a special member for attaching the stay 65S, and the number of parts can be reduced. Furthermore, it becomes easier to effectively utilize the limited space around the electrical component cover 52 as a space for arranging the horn 65. Note that instead of the horn 65, a buzzer that outputs a buzzer sound or an audio output device that can output various sounds may be used.

In the front cover portion 52F of the electrical component cover 52, a corner region including the socket passage hole 52H is formed into a recess 52K recessed toward the rear of the vehicle body compared to other regions.
In this configuration, as shown in FIG. 3, by forming the recessed part 52K by recessing a part of the front cover part 52F, when the USB socket 46 is inserted into the socket passage hole 52H, the outside of the socket passage hole 52H is An upper cover part (hereinafter referred to as "socket upper cover part") 52X that covers the USB socket 46 exposed from above (in the present embodiment, the front) and a side cover part (hereinafter referred to as "socket upper cover part") that covers the USB socket 46 from the side. 52Y (referred to as a "socket side cover section") is provided.
The socket upper cover part 52X and the socket side cover part 52Y are referred to as a stepped part, a ridgeline part, or a boundary part formed by the recess 52K in the front cover part 52F of the electrical component cover 52. You can also do that.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the electrical component cover 52 together with the surrounding structure from diagonally from the front. FIG. 9 schematically shows a state in which the USB socket 46 is inserted into the socket passage hole 52H.
Since the USB socket 46 is inserted into the socket passing hole 52H provided in the electrical component cover 52, the arrangement space of the electrical component cover 52 can also be used as the arrangement space of the USB socket 46, and the electrical component cover 52 can also be used as a space for the USB socket. It can also be used as a support member for supporting 46. Therefore, compared to the case where special parts necessary for arranging the USB socket 46 are provided, the space for arranging the parts can be reduced, and the number of parts can also be reduced.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 9, the socket upper cover portion 52X extends above the socket passage hole 52H over the entire width of the socket passage hole 52H, and functions as an eaves extending toward the front of the vehicle body. Further, the socket upper cover portion 52X is formed in a shape such that the height decreases toward the outside in the vehicle width direction.
The socket side cover portion 52Y extends over the entire vertical length of the socket passage hole 52H on the outer side in the vehicle width direction of the socket passage hole 52H, and functions as a side wall extending toward the front of the vehicle body. Similarly to the socket upper cover part 52X, the socket side cover part 52Y is also formed in a shape in which the height decreases toward the outside in the vehicle width direction.

When moisture enters the space surrounded by the front cover 33 and the inner cover 35, the socket upper cover part 52X and the socket side cover part 52Y prevent the moisture from adhering to the USB socket 46 inserted into the socket passage hole 52H. This makes it easier to prevent such situations.
In addition, since the socket upper cover part 52X and the socket side cover part 52Y are formed in a shape that decreases in height toward the outside in the vehicle width direction, it is possible to prevent the front surface of the electrical component cover 52 from being exposed from below. If moisture adheres to the vehicle, it can be guided outward in the vehicle width direction and smoothly fall downward.

As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, a portion of the USB socket 46 is exposed downward when viewed from the bottom of the vehicle body. The area exposed below the USB socket 46 is small, and parts such as the radiator 40 and wiring parts (not shown) are present below the USB socket 46. Therefore, it is possible to sufficiently prevent water splashed from around the front wheel 13 from adhering to the USB socket 46.

As described above, the saddle-ride type vehicle 10 of the present embodiment is attached to the inner cover 35 that functions as a vehicle body cover member that covers a part of the front frame 19 (corresponding to the main frame), and covers the lower part of the electrical component 51. The electrical component cover 52 has a socket passage hole 52H through which the USB socket 46 functioning as a power supply member passes.
According to this configuration, the space around the electrical component 51 and the electrical component cover 52 can be used as a space for arranging the USB socket 46 while preventing the electrical component 51 from being exposed to water from below. It can be used for arranging the USB socket 46. Therefore, it becomes easier to reduce the space required for arranging the electrical components 51 and the USB socket 46 and reduce the number of parts.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a stay 65S that supports the horn 65 is attached to the electrical component cover 52. Therefore, there is no need to separately provide a special member for attaching the stay 65S, and this also suppresses an increase in the number of parts, making it easier to reduce the number of parts in the saddle-ride type vehicle 10 as a whole.

Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, the electrical component 51 has a shape that is long in the vehicle width direction, and more specifically, has a shape that is longer than the diameter of the USB socket 46. . At least a portion of the USB socket 46 and at least a portion of the harness 55 connected to the USB socket 46 are located below the electrical component 51 and within the range of the electrical component 51 in the vehicle width direction.
According to this configuration, the space required for arranging the electrical component 51, the USB socket 46, and the harness 55 can be made compact, and the electrical component cover 52 can be prevented from increasing in size. Further, it becomes easier to prevent water from coming in from above the electrical components 51, the USB socket 46, and the harness 55.

Note that in this embodiment, the electrical components 51 are arranged so as to have a relatively long shape in the vehicle width direction, and the space left below the electrical components 51 is used as a space for the USB socket 46 and the like. Thereby, the vertical length of the space required for arranging the electrical component 51, the USB socket 46, etc. can be reduced.
This makes it easier to efficiently arrange electrical components such as the electrical components 51 and the USB sockets 46 in the spaces within the front cover 33 and inner cover 35 whose vertical lengths are restricted.

Further, the electrical component cover 52 includes a socket side cover portion 52Y that covers at least a portion of the USB socket 46 passed through the socket passage hole 52H from the outside in the vehicle width direction. According to this configuration, it is possible to prevent the USB socket 46 from being exposed to water from outside in the vehicle width direction.

Further, the electrical component cover 52 has a socket upper cover part 52X that covers the upper part of the USB socket 46 passed through the socket passage hole 52H. According to this configuration, it is possible to prevent the USB socket 46 from being exposed to water from above. Furthermore, the socket upper cover part 52X and the socket side cover part 52Y are formed in a shape such that the height decreases toward the outside in the vehicle width direction. According to this configuration, when moisture adheres to each surface of the socket upper cover part 52X and the socket side cover part 52Y, each moisture is smoothly guided outward in the vehicle width direction using gravity, It can be dropped downward. Therefore, moisture can be discharged to a position away from the USB socket 46, and the USB socket 46 and the like can be more effectively prevented from getting wet.
However, the shapes of the socket upper cover part 52X and the socket side cover part 52Y are not limited to the shapes described above, and may be changed as appropriate.

Further, the electrical component 51 is arranged such that the lower surface 51L of the electrical component 51 becomes higher toward the socket passage hole 52H side. This makes it easier to secure a space for arranging the USB socket 46 below the electrical component 51, making it easier to arrange the electrical component 51 and the USB socket 46 in a compact manner in the vertical direction.

Further, the electrical component cover 52 includes a front cover part 52F that covers the front of the electrical component 51, an upper cover part 52U that covers the upper part of the electrical component 51, and a side cover part 52S that covers the side of the electrical component 51. Therefore, the electrical components 51 can be prevented from being exposed to water from the front, above, and sides.
Note that when the direction in which the electrical component cover 52 is exposed to water is limited, one of the front cover portion 52F, upper cover portion 52U, side cover portion 52S, and lower cover portion 52L may be provided depending on the direction. You can also do this. That is, in the present invention, whether the electrical component cover 52 is provided with any one of the front cover part 52F, the upper cover part 52U, the upper cover part 52U, and the lower cover part 52L may be changed as appropriate. The shapes of the cover portions 52F, 52U, 52S, and 52L may also be changed as appropriate.

Note that the above-described embodiment shows one aspect of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment. For example, a case has been described in which the electrical component cover 52 that covers the upper and side surfaces of the electrical component 51 prevents the USB socket 46 from being exposed to water, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration.

For example, a cover may be provided to cover the top and sides of electrical components other than the electrical component 51, and this cover may prevent the power supply members such as the USB socket 46 from being exposed to water. In this case, the shape of the cover that prevents the electrical components and the power supply member from being exposed to water may match the shape of the electrical component cover 52, or may not match, depending on the shape of the components, empty space, etc. In addition, an appropriate shape can be adopted.

Furthermore, although the present invention has been described as being applied to the saddle-ride type vehicle 10 shown in FIG. It may also be applied to a saddle-ride type vehicle. Moreover, the power unit 12 is not limited to a configuration having an internal combustion engine, but can be widely applied to a configuration having various drive sources capable of driving the vehicle body, such as a drive motor. That is, the present invention may be applied to an electric saddle type vehicle or a hybrid type saddle type vehicle equipped with multiple types of drive sources.
