The front wall 22 is provided and is inclined obliquely upward and rearward of the vehicle. The rear wall edge 21a of the rear wall 21 is folded back toward the front side, and the front wall edge 22a formed by stepping down the front wall 22 is inserted inside the rear wall edge 21a with a gap a therebetween. Thus, a drainage passage 23 for discharging rainwater and the like is formed.
[0017]
A large screen (windshield plate) 24 is sectioned at the center in the vehicle width direction at the front upper end of the cowling 11 and is tilted slightly upward from the meter visor 20 when viewed from the side of the vehicle (relative to the vertical line). The angle is slightly smaller than that of the meter visor 20). The screen 24 is made of a transparent resin, and when viewed from the front, the lower edge 24a protrudes downward in an arc shape and is generally rectangular when viewed as a whole. The lower edge 24a is inserted into a plurality of bolt holes 24f. The mounting bolt 25 is fastened and fixed to the upper edge 11a of the cowling 11. The mounting bolt 25 is covered with a colored resin cover 26 so that it cannot be seen from the outside. In addition, 11b is a headlight arrangement | positioning opening, 11c is a direction indicator arrangement | positioning opening, 11d is an external air introduction opening.
[0018]
An outside air introduction opening 24b for introducing outside air to the rear side of the screen 24 is formed at a lower portion of the screen 24, that is, near the lower edge 24a. The outside air introduction opening 24b has a generally inverted trapezoidal shape when viewed from the front. The left and right edges 24c, 24c of the outside air introduction opening 24b are bent rearward with a predetermined bending radius (see cross section aa in FIG. 5), and the outside air introduction opening 24b is formed by this bending. As a result, a decrease in rigidity is suppressed.
[0019]
A colored film, for example, a black film 27 is formed on the inner surface of a portion of the screen 24 below the line b (the hatched portion in FIG. 5) continuously extending from the upper edge 24d of the outside air introduction opening 24b. It is formed by screen printing, so that the portion below the extension line b of the screen 24 is translucent or opaque. In the present embodiment, the lower part of the extension line b is configured so that the upper part is translucent and gradually becomes opaque toward the lower part. The film may be formed by a method other than printing, for example, by sticking an opaque seal.
[0020]
When viewed from the front, the upper edge 20a of the meter visor 20 is located at a higher position than the upper edge 24d of the outside air introduction opening 24b. The height difference c between both the upper edges 20a and 24d is such that the upper edge 20a on the meter visor 20 side is substantially horizontal, while the upper edge 24d on the outside air inlet 24b side is slightly lower. Since it has an arcuate shape that protrudes toward the center of the vehicle, it increases toward the center in the vehicle width direction. Further, when viewed from the side of the vehicle in a longitudinal section, the height of the upper edge 20a of the meter visor 20 is generally on an extension line d on the upper surface of the upper guide blade 29a constituting the guide plate 29 of the louver mechanism 28 described later. The height is set.
[0021]
A louver mechanism 28 that substantially opens and closes the opening 24b and guides the flow direction of the outside air toward the driver's head when opened is disposed in the outside air introduction opening 24b. The louver mechanism 28 includes a fixed guide plate 29 that guides the flow of outside air toward the vicinity of the driver's head, and a shutter plate 30 that opens and closes a substantial outside air introduction opening formed by the guide plate 29. And an opening / closing knob 31 that is gripped when the shutter plate 30 is opened / closed.
[0022]
The guide plate 29 has upper, middle and lower guide blades 29a, 29b and 29c which are curved in a circular arc shape so as to protrude slightly forward in plan view, and are arranged vertically. Further, it is an integrally molded resin product joined by left and right ribs 29d, 29d and a central rib 29e. The guide blades 29a to 29c are substantially horizontal when viewed from the front, and are slightly obliquely inclined rearward and upward when viewed from the side of the vehicle. Further, the meter visor 20 is inclined rearward and obliquely upward to be larger than the fixed guide plate 29. The combination of the guide plate 29 and the meter visor 20 directs the traveling wind toward the vicinity of the rider's head, and the flow is adjusted to prevent the occurrence of turbulence. Generation of negative pressure is prevented.
[0023]
A mounting flange portion 29f is stepped and formed in a circular arc shape along the front edge line of the guide blade 29c at the front edge of the lower guide blade 29c. The upper surface of the mounting flange portion 29f is adhered to the lower surface of the opening lower edge 24e of the outside air introduction opening 24b of the screen 24 with a double-sided adhesive tape 33.
[0024]
The shutter plate 30 is a resin-integrated molded product in which strip-shaped upper blades 30a and lower blades 30b extending in the vehicle width direction are integrally joined with a step of about the blade thickness. Further, shaft support portions 30c and 30c are integrally formed at both ends of the shutter plate 30, and the shaft support portion 30c is rotatably supported by shaft portions 29g protruding from the left and right ribs 29d and 29d. Has been. Thus, the shutter plate 30 opens and closes the air introduction opening formed by the upper, middle, and lower guide blades 29a, 29b, and 29c.
[0025]
The opening / closing knob 31 for opening / closing the shutter plate 30 is integrally formed at the center of the rear edge of the upper blade 30a of the shutter plate 30 in the vehicle width direction. The opening / closing knob 31 includes a closing knob portion 31a for rotating the shutter plate 30 from the open state to the closed state, and an opening knob portion 31b for rotating the shutter plate 30 from the closed state to the open state. The closing knob portion 31a is inclined rearward so that a gap can be inserted between the shutter plate 30 and the front wall 22 of the meter visor 20 when the shutter plate 30 is in the open position (the angular position shown by a solid line in FIG. 7). The opening knob portion 31b is formed so as to incline upward, and when the shutter plate 30 is in the closed position (the angular position indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 7), a finger is placed between the opening 24 and the screen 24. The gap is formed in parallel with the shutter plate 30 and rearwardly so as to form an insertable gap.
[0026]
One end 32a of a torsion spring type urging spring 32 is hooked to the left end surface in the vehicle width direction of the shutter plate 30 when viewed from the rear of the vehicle, and the other end 32b of the urging spring 32 is connected to the left rib. It is hooked on the spring support 29h of 29d. In this case, the latching positions of the one end 32a and the other end 32b are set so as to bias the shutter plate 30 in the open and closed states, respectively, when the shutter plate 30 is rotated to the open and closed states. .
[0027]
In the present embodiment, since the outside air introduction opening 24b is formed in the screen 24, it is possible to prevent the traveling wind from being introduced into the back surface of the screen 24 and to generate negative pressure on the back surface of the screen 24, and to apply a positive force to the driver. Can be prevented from acting. When the outside air inlet 24b is formed in the screen 24, the left and right edges 24c and 24c of the outside air inlet opening 24b are bent rearward, so that the rigidity of the outside air inlet opening 24b is prevented from lowering particularly in the left and right sides. In addition, it is possible to ensure the necessary rigidity of the entire screen 24 while forming the outside air introduction opening 24b.
[0028]
On the other hand, since the left and right edge portions of the outside air introduction port 24b are bent, there is a concern that the field of view may be distorted when looking forward through the bent portion of the screen 24. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the screen 24 is semi-transparent on the inner surface of the portion below the line b (the hatched portion) extending continuously from the upper edge 24d of the outside air introduction opening 24b in the vehicle width direction. Since the opaque film 27 is formed, the driver looks forward through the region A shown in FIG. 1 without trying to look forward through the vicinity of the outside air introduction opening 24b of the screen 24, and thus through the portion by forming the fold. It is possible to avoid the problem of distortion occurring in the field of view when viewed. In addition, since the area where the outside air introduction opening 24b is formed is translucent or opaque, the distinction from the transparent portion above is clear, the design is sharp, and the appearance can be improved.
[0029]
Further, a louver mechanism 28 is provided in the outside air introduction opening 24b, and the guide blades 29a, 29b, 29c of the fixed guide plate 29 are slightly inclined rearward and upward, and the meter visor 20 is further raised from the guide plate 29. Since the driving wind is directed toward the vicinity of the rider's head and the flow state is adjusted, the generation of the above-described negative pressure can be prevented and the driving wind can be prevented from being generated. Can be suppressed.
[0030]
Furthermore, when running in the rain, rainwater enters the outside air introduction opening 24b together with the running wind. However, this rainwater is hardly blocked by the front wall 22 of the meter visor 20 and applied to the driver. The rainwater hitting the front wall 22 flows along the front wall 22 surface toward the periphery, and falls from the gap a through the drainage passage 23 to the lower side of the vehicle body.
[0031]
Further, since the shutter plate 30 is provided, the outdoor air introduction passage formed by the guide plate 29 can be closed by the shutter plate 30 in the cold season. When closed in this manner, outside air can be prevented from flowing toward the rider. When the outside air introduction passage is closed, the shutter plate 30 is rotated upward by placing a finger on the lower surface of the closing knob portion 31a, and when opened, the shutter plate 30 is lowered by placing the finger on the front surface of the opening knob portion 31b. In this way, the shutter plate 30 can be easily opened and closed in a narrow region where it is difficult to access.
[0032]
As described above, the opening / closing knob 31 of the shutter plate 30 has a stepped shape including the inclined closing knob portion 31a and the stepped opening knob portion 31b, so that the screen 24 and the meter visor 20 are arranged with a simple structure. The shutter plate 30 can be opened and closed in such a narrow space. Further, since the torsion spring type biasing spring 32 is provided, the shutter plate 30 can be reliably held in the open position or the closed position. Although it is possible to extend the rotation axis of the shutter plate 30 in the vehicle width direction to the left and right edges of the meter visor 20 and to grip and rotate the end of the extension shaft, If it does in this way, while a structure will become complicated, there exists a concern about the fall of the external appearance by the said extension shaft.
[0033]
Next, the left and right container (housing portion) provided in the leg shield 13 will be described. A main switch 34 is disposed at the upper edge of the leg shield 13 and slightly to the right of the center in the vehicle width direction, and a small right container (sub-accommodating portion) 35 is located on the right side of the switch 34. On the left side, a relatively large left container (main storage part) 36 is disposed.
[0034]
The left container 36 swings forward and backward by a hinge 36a at an opening 13c toward the vehicle rear of a box bottom (main box bottom) 13b formed by recessing a part of the leg shield 13 so as to protrude toward the front of the vehicle body. It is configured to be opened and closed by a left lid (main lid) 36b supported in a possible manner. In the box bottom 13b, the portion indicated by 13b 'in FIGS. 4 and 9 is integrally formed with the leg shield. However, the portion 13b "is formed by welding a different one. This 13b" The storage space is expanded downward by the portion. A lock mechanism 38 is disposed on the left lid 36b. This locking mechanism 38 has a latching claw 38b. The latching claw 38b is pushed into the lock mechanism main body when it hits the latching piece 13d of the leg shield 13, and when it gets over the latching piece 13d, it automatically returns and hooks. It hooks on the back side of the stopper 13d. To open the lid 36b, the left and right knobs (not shown) provided on the lock mechanism 38 are pushed into the lock mechanism main body to release the engagement of the hooking claws 38b with the hooking pieces 13d. Further, when the lock mechanism 38 is rotated to the lock position by inserting the main key into the key hole 38 a, the lock claw 38 b is held in a state of being hooked on the latch piece 13 d of the leg shield 13. In FIG. 4, the left lid 36b is removed.
[0035]
The right container 35 is an integrated box bottom portion (sub-box bottom portion) 35a and right lid portion 35b, and is provided so that the opening 13f of the leg shield 13 can be opened and closed. The box bottom portion 35a is configured such that the lower surface is inclined obliquely upward as it goes forward of the vehicle, and the upper surface is opened, whereby the right case 35 is formed in a box shape with the upper surface opened. The box bottom 35a is supported by a side wall 13a recessed in the leg shield 13 so as to be pivotable back and forth by pins 35c and 35d and to be detachable. Here, the pin 35c is of a type integrally formed on the side surface of the box bottom 35a. In FIG. 4, the lid portion 35b and the box bottom portion 35a are removed.
[0036]
On the other hand, the pin 35d is configured to be detachable. Specifically, the pin 35d is inserted into the shaft hole 35e of the box bottom 35a, and the shaft 35f is inserted, whereby the end of the pin 35d is expanded and fixed to the support hole 13e of the side wall 13a. As a result, the right case 35 can swing back and forth about the pins 35c and 35d.
[0037]
A cooling water supply cap (water supply cap) 37 for the radiator 39 is located at the back of the right case 35. The replenishing cap 37 faces outward by removing the right container 35, and the cooling water can be easily replenished by removing the replenishing cap 37 in this state. When removing the right case 35, the end of the pin 35d is unfolded when the shaft 35f is further pushed in, so that the shaft 35f and the pin 35d can be pulled out at the same time. The right case 35 can be removed.
[0038]
As described above, in this embodiment, the container is divided into the left and right, the right container 35 is configured to be a type in which the box bottom 35a and the box lid 35b are integrated, and the right container 35 is separated from the leg shield 13. Since the cooling water supply cap 37 of the radiator 39 faces outward when the right case 35 is removed, the cooling water supply operation can be easily performed.
[0039]
Next, the sheet device 8 and the storage device 7 will be described in detail. The seat device 8 has a front and rear two-part structure of a main seat (front seat) 41 on which a driver sits and a tandem seat (rear seat) 42 on which a passenger sits. The lid hinge plate 43 for supporting the main seat 41 is configured to open and close the upper opening 40c of the storage box 40 of the storage device 7.
[0040]
The storage box 40 has a length over the entire length of the seat device 8 for two-seaters, and is formed by joining and integrating two members formed integrally with resin as described later. A front box part (front box) 40a located on the side and a rear box located below the tandem seat 42 Part (Rear box 4) 0b, and full face type helmets A and B can be stored in the front box portion 40a and the rear box portion 40b.
[0041]
The storage box 40 as a whole is formed in a downwardly inclined shape, and a front bottom portion 40e corresponding to the front box portion 40a of the bottom wall 40d can accommodate the helmet A with the lid hinge plate 43. And is located at a height that substantially covers the front surface of the cylinder head cover 5 a of the engine unit 5. Further, the front box portion 40a is fastened and fixed to the upper side pipe 2b by bolts 44a and 44b at the front and rear four places.
[0042]
The rear box portion 40b is substantially rectangular in plan view. That is, as shown in FIG. 16, when viewed from the plane, the left and right side walls 40u and the rear side wall 40u 'correspond to the left, right side, and rear side of the rectangle. The rear bottom portion 40f of the rear box portion 40b bulges downward, and the top wall 40g has a mountain shape (dome shape) when viewed in cross section, and has a tunnel shape as a whole. In this way, a rectangular object such as the helmet B or the suitcase can be accommodated. The rear box portion 40b is fixed to the upper side pipe 2b by four bolts 44c near the front end of the rear bottom portion 40f, and a support boss portion 40v protruding from the rear end wall is supported by the rear frame 2g. ing. In attaching the storage box 40, the support boss 40v is supported by the rear frame 2g, and then the bottom of the storage box is fastened and fixed to the upper side pipe 2b by the mounting bolts 44a to 44c.
[0043]
More specifically, the top wall 40g is set in a mountain shape having a linear inclined surface 40h formed by cutting a hatched area of a substantially semicircular top wall e shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. Yes. Since the hatched area is cut into a shape having the inclined surface 40h in this way, as will be described later, the cushion thickness of the overlapping portion of the main seat 41 disposed so as to overlap the portion is set. It can be secured and ride comfort can be secured.
[0044]
An illuminating lamp 48 for illuminating the rear box portion 40b and the front box portion 40a is disposed at the rear portion of the top wall 40g. This illuminating lamp 48 is disposed and fixed on the rear side surface of the top wall 40g so as to be inserted from the outside to the inside, and its lens surface 48a is formed flat. Since the illuminating lamp 48 is provided in this way, the problem that the interior is dark and difficult to see can be avoided by forming the rear box portion 40b in a tunnel shape.
[0045]
Further, since the illuminating lamp 48 is disposed in a portion of the top wall 40g where the substantial accommodating volume is not reduced, the problem that the accommodating volume is reduced by providing the illuminating lamp 48 can be avoided. Further, since the illuminating lamp 48 is disposed at a portion of the ceiling wall 40g where the stored item is difficult to hit, the problem that the illuminating lamp is damaged by the stored item can be avoided. Further, since the lens surface 48a is flattened to minimize the protrusion to the inside, it is possible to avoid a reduction in the storage volume from this point, and to prevent the stored items in the rear box portion 40b from interfering with the illumination lamp 48. it can.
[0046]
The rear box portion 40b has a structure in which the mating opening 40m on the rear bottom 40f side and the mating opening 40n on the top wall 40g are abutted and the mating openings are welded together by a wire welding method. Specifically, the heating wire 49 is disposed between the mating openings 40m and 40n, and the wire 49 is energized. The resin is melted by the heat generated at this time, and is welded at the time of solidification.
[0047]
Thus, in forming the tunnel-type rear box portion 40b, the top wall 40g side portion and the bottom portion 40f side portion divided into two parts are welded and joined by the wire welding method, so that the waterproof property can be improved and the appearance quality can be improved.

In this holding position, the lever main body 81 is positioned immediately below the left grip 76, and the lever main body 81b interferes with the hand when the left grip 76 is to be gripped.
[0098]
When releasing the parking brake device 80, the lever body 81b is rotated to the release position. Then, the inner cable 82b of the brake cable 82 is loosened, the brake shoes 86, 86 of the parking brake mechanism 83 are reduced in diameter by the return spring 87, and the braking force is released.
[0099]
Thus, the parking brake mechanism 83 has a diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the disk plate 90, and the brake panel 85 is inserted and disposed so as to overlap the disk plate 90 from the disk plate 90 side when viewed in the direction perpendicular to the axis. Therefore, it is possible to avoid an increase in the axial dimension while providing both the disc brake mechanism 89 and the parking brake mechanism 83.
[0100]
Further, when the parking brake device 80 is operated, the lever main body 81b is positioned in the immediate vicinity of the lower side of the left grip 76, and the lever main body 81b hits the hand when trying to hold the left grip 76. It is possible to reliably prevent the vehicle from starting running without rotating to the hour position.
[0101]
Further, since the lever main body 81b is provided on the left grip 76 side, the throttle grip can be operated with the right hand while releasing the lever main body 81b with the left hand at the start of running, and the operability is good.
