FIELD OF TECHNIQUE
[001] The present invention relates to a vehicle that includes a chassis frame that can tilt and two front wheels. BACKGROUND TECHNIQUE
[002] Vehicles including a chassis frame that can tilt and two front wheels are known in Non-Patent Document 1, Patent Document 1 and the like. In the vehicle described in Non-Patent Document 1 on which a linkage mechanism is mounted, vehicle components such as a radiator, a headlamp and the like are arranged directly in front of the linkage mechanism.
[003] In the vehicles described in non-patent document 1 and patent document 1, the linkage mechanism is arranged not between the right front wheel and the left front wheel, but above the right front wheel and the left front wheel. This setting limits the increase of a defined space in a left to right direction of the vehicle.RELATED ART DOCUMENTNon-patent documentNon-patent document 1 - Catalogo partidi ricambio, MP3 300 64102 ieLT Mod. ZAPM64102, Piaggio.Patent documentPatent document 1 - US design patent no. 547,242 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION PROBLEM THAT THE INVENTION MUST SOLVE
[004] In the vehicle described in non-patent document 1 that includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, a front portion of the vehicle becomes large. This is attributed to the fact that the vehicle includes the two steerable front wheels, i.e. the right front wheel and the left front wheel, and the linkage mechanism that supports the right front wheel and left front wheel so as to be displaced in to the chassis frame in an up-and-down direction of the chassis frame. With the chassis frame tilting with respect to a perpendicular direction, elements that make up the linkage mechanism move widely, and the right front wheel and left front wheel are offset widely relative to the chassis frame. This increases the size of an external vehicle component that is provided in the front portion of the vehicle so as to avoid its interference with the linkage mechanism that moves widely and the right front wheel and left front wheel that are widely displaced. In addition, vehicle components such as a headlamp, arrow lamps, a front cover, a radiator and the like are also arranged in the front portion of the vehicle. Due to these facts, in this type of vehicle, the front portion of the vehicle that is above the two front wheels tends to be increased.
[005] Figure 13 is a schematic view showing the vehicle chassis frame described in Non-Patent Document 1. In the configuration described in Non-Patent Document 1, vehicle components such as the chassis cover and radiator are supported on the frame of chassis 110 by a support element 110. That support element 100 includes an upper support element 101 which extends forwardly from above the link mechanism 105 so as to avoid interference with the link mechanism 105 and an element lower support element 103 which extends forward and downward from the upper support element 101. The chassis cover is secured to the upper support element 101. The radiator is secured to the lower support element 103. As a result of this configuration, no vehicle described in Non-Patent Document 1 which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, the front portion of the vehicle becomes large.
[006] Thus, the invention provides a vehicle including a tilting chassis frame and two front wheels that can limit vehicle rise while vehicle components are assembled. MEANS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM
[007] In order to solve the problem, according to a mode (1) that the invention can take, a vehicle is provided comprising: a chassis frame; a left front wheel and a right front wheel that are laterally disposed when viewed from the front. of the front of the vehicle and which can be steered; a left damper device which supports the left front wheel on a lower portion thereof and which absorbs upward displacement of the left front wheel in an upward and downward direction of the chassis frame; a device right damper which supports the right front wheel in a lower portion thereof and which absorbs upward displacement of the right front wheel in the up and down direction of the chassis frame; a link mechanism including a right side portion which supports an upper portion of the right damper device so as to rotate around a geometric axis of right direction that extends in the up and down direction of the quad chassis, a left-hand portion that supports an upper portion of the left damper device so as to rotate about a left-turning axis that is parallel to the right-hand axis, and a transverse portion that supports the portion of the right side on an extreme right portion thereof so as to rotate around a right axis which extends in a front and rear direction of the chassis frame and supports the left side portion on an extreme left portion thereof so as to remove around a left axis which is parallel to the right axis and which is supported on a link support portion which is part of the chassis frame in a middle portion thereof so as to rotate about a mean axis which is parallel to the right axis and the left axis, and a vehicle component that is disposed in front of the chassis frame in relation to the front and rear direction of the chassis frame ,wherein the cross portion includes a front cross portion which lies ahead of the connecting support portion of the chassis frame, the link mechanism has a forward portion defining a space that does not overlap the front cross portion when the cross portion rotates relative to the chassis frame into a moving front outer edge which is an outer edge of a location formed when the transverse portion rotates relative to the chassis frame as seen from the direction of the median axis, and the vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame via a component support portion which is disposed in the space defined by the direct portion.
[008] Conventionally proposed vehicles that include a tilting chassis frame and two front wheels as described in Non-Patent Document 1 or Patent Document 1 tend to have a large front portion. Then, those conventionally proposed vehicles which include the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels as described in Non-Patent Document 1 or Patent Document 1 were studied and analyzed in relation to a supporting construction of a vehicle component. The vehicle described in non-patent document 1 or patent document 1 includes a transverse portion of the linkage mechanism and vehicle component. As seen from the direction of the mean axis, the cross portion always lies inward of a movable outer edge which is an outer edge of a location formed by the cross portion when the cross portion is rotated. A component support portion that supports the vehicle component is formed so as to move away from the moving outer edge of the cross portion as seen from the direction of the median axis to avoid an interference of the vehicle component with the cross portion. Specifically, the vehicle described in non-patent document 1 or patent document 1 has an upper support that extends from the chassis frame to the front of the link mechanism by moving above the movable outer edge of the transverse portion. Additionally, the vehicle has an undercarriage that extends from the chassis frame to the front of the link mechanism by moving below the movable outer edge of the cross-section. It was found that the front portion of the vehicle is increased due to the upper support and the lower support being arranged above and below the mobile outer edge of the transverse portion. Furthermore, it was found from the results of the analysis that a defined long distance between the vehicle component and the chassis frame lengthens the upper support and the lower support. In addition, the top support and the bottom support are increased to ensure the rigidity with which the vehicle component is supported. The increase in size of the upper support and lower support increases the front portion of the vehicle.
[009] As a result of the study and analysis having been carried out, the inventors came up with the technical idea that the component support portion does not move around (turn around) the movable outer edge of the transverse portion in place of the conventional technical idea of that the component support portion moves around (makes a turn) the movable outer edge of the transverse portion. This technical idea can first be found through a detailed analysis of the rotation of the transverse element in relation to the chassis frame. The movable outer edge of the transverse portion is large. This is attributed to the fact that the shape of the cross section is configured to be large enough to support a load that is exerted on the front wheels. This limits the attempt to make the outer edge moveable from the small cross portion. Additionally, the transverse portion is rotatably supported on the chassis frame. In addition, the cross portion includes a front cross portion which is located in front of a connecting support portion of the chassis frame. Because of this, the inventors have realized that avoiding interference with the front transverse portion makes it difficult to raise the front portion of the vehicle even though the vehicle component is disposed on the front portion of the vehicle. So, thinking another way, the inventors came up with the technical idea that the vehicle component is supported into the large moving outer edge of the cross portion, i.e., the technical idea that the vehicle component does not move in around the movable outer edge of the transverse portion. Additionally, the inventors realized that a straight portion can be easily formed into the movable outer edge of the cross portion by making use of the original large shape of the cross portion which was conventionally regarded as a demerit while imagining the shape of the cross portion. Furthermore, the inventors have realized that it is possible to limit the increase in the movable outer edge of the transverse portion while the direct portion is formed in the link mechanism. The present invention was carried out based on this knowledge obtained through the study and analysis.
[010] According to the mode (1) that the invention can take, the transverse portion includes the front transverse portion which is situated in front of the connecting support portion of the chassis frame. The link mechanism has the direct portion that does not overlap the front cross portion when the cross portion rotates relative to the chassis frame where it is inside the front movable outer edge which is the outer edge of the location formed when the cross portion rotates relative to the chassis frame as seen from the direction of the median axis. The vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame through the component support portion which is disposed in the space defined by the direct portion.
[011] Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to limit the vehicle's rise.
[012] According to a mode (2) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the direct portion can be located inside the outer edge of the front transverse portion that lies ahead of the connecting support portion as seen in from the direction of the mean geometric axis.
[013]According to mode (2), since the forward portion is set into the outer edge of the front cross-section, it is possible to further limit the increase in the front moving outer edge of the front cross-section. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[014] According to a mode (3) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the direct portion may be located closer to the mean geometric axis than an extreme left portion and an extreme right portion of the front transverse portion that is located in front of the link support portion.
[015]A right portion size as seen from the direction of the mean geometry axis can be made smaller since the right portion is arranged closer to the mean geometry axis. Due to this, according to mode (3), although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[016]According to a mode (4) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the mean geometric axis can be situated in the space defined by the direct portion as seen from the direction of the mean geometric axis.
[017]The mean geometry axis does not move or rotate with respect to the chassis frame although the link mechanism operates. Because of this, according to mode (4), the direct portion can be set to a minimum required size. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[018] According to a mode (5) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the component support portion may form part of a swivel support portion that supports the forward transverse portion in the connecting support portion so to rotate. According to mode (5), since the component support portion can be composed using the portion supporting the front transverse portion, a separate component support portion does not have to be provided, and the vehicle component can be supported with simple configuration. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[019] According to a mode (6) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the direct portion can define an elongated hole that includes an arc that is centered on the mean geometric axis of the front transverse portion.
[020]According to mode (6), the direct portion defines an ellipse that includes the arc that is centered on the geometric mean axis that constitutes the center of rotation of the transverse portion in relation to the chassis frame. This makes it possible to make the shape of the direct portion small while avoiding the interference of the space that is defined by the direct portion with the component support portion. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[021] According to a mode (7) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the link mechanism may have a front upper transverse portion which lies ahead of the link support portion and a front lower transverse portion of which the mean geometric axis lies below the upper transverse portion and which lies ahead of the connecting support portion, and the forward portion may have an upper straight portion which forms part of a lower edge of the front upper transverse portion and a lower straight portion which forms part of an upper edge of the front lower transverse portion.
[022]According to mode (7) an opening defined between the front upper transverse portion and the front lower transverse portion is used to provide the component support portion. This increases the efficiency of space utilization in the front portion of the vehicle. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[023] According to a mode (8) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the vehicle component can be supported on the connecting support portion of the chassis frame.
[024]According to mode (8), the linkage mechanism supports the linkage mechanism that supports the right front wheel, left front wheel, right damper device and left damper device and is highly rigid. Due to that, by supporting the vehicle component by making use of its high rigidity, the configuration supporting the vehicle component can be simplified. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[025] According to a mode (9) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, a plurality of direct portions can be provided, and in which a plurality of component support portions can be provided.
[026] According to mode (9), the vehicle component can be supported in a plurality of locations to thereby be supported strongly and rigidly. The individual component support portions can be formed small so as to make it easy to avoid their interference with the connection mechanism. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[027] According to a mode (10) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the vehicle component, when viewed from the direction of the median axis, can be supported on the chassis frame through a connecting portion that it is not arranged in the space which is defined by the direct portion but is arranged outward from the moving outer edge of the front.
[028]According to mode (10), the support rigidity with which the vehicle component is supported is easily ensured by the component support portion and connecting portion. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.
[029] According to a mode (11) that the invention can take, in the vehicle, the vehicle support portion can form part of at least any one of the chassis frame, vehicle component, and a fixing bracket with the which vehicle component is attached to the chassis frame.
[030]According to mode (11), the component support portion can be composed by using any of the other elements. Consequently, although the vehicle component is mounted on the vehicle which includes the tilting chassis frame and the two front wheels, it is possible to further limit the vehicle's rise.

[052]Chassis frame 21 is covered by chassis cover 22. Chassis cover 22 includes a front cover 221, front fenders 223, and a rear fender 22.
[053]The front cover 221 is located in front of the seat 24. The front cover 221 covers the barrel 211 and the link mechanism 5.
[054]The front fenders 223 are supplied individually directly above the front wheels 3 which are a pair of left and right front wheels 3. The front fenders 223 are arranged directly below the front cover 221. The rear fender 224 is arranged directly above the rear wheel 4.

The right front wheel 32 is arranged to be symmetrical with the left front wheel 31 with respect to the middle transverse portion of the vehicle.
[058] When referred to in this description, a "right direction RF of vehicle chassis frame 21" indicates a rightward direction of directions that intersect an axial direction of barrel 211 perpendicularly in a front view of vehicle 1. Additionally, when mentioned, an upward direction UF of chassis frame 21 indicates an upward direction of chassis frame 21 when vehicle 1 is supported vertically. For example, the upward direction of the chassis frame 21 coincides with an axial direction of the barrel 211 in the front view of vehicle 1. In such a state that vehicle 1 is supported in a vertical state as shown in figure 2, the direction for the right RF of vehicle chassis frame 21 coincides with a right direction R in the horizontal direction. Because of this, only the right direction R in the horizontal direction is shown in figure 2. In such a state that vehicle 1 leans in relation to the road surface G as shown in figure 6, the right direction RF of the frame of chassis 21 does not match the right direction R in the horizontal direction, and the upward direction UF of the chassis frame 21 does not match an upward direction U in the perpendicular direction.

[072] The lower medial axis M4 constituting a center of rotation of the lower medial support 521, a lower left axis M5 constituting a center of rotation of the lower left support 522, and a lower right axis M6 constituting a center of rotation of the lower right bracket 522 are made to lie parallel to each other. Additionally, the lower mean geometry axis M4 is provided to be parallel to the upper mean geometry axis M1. Furthermore, with vehicle 1 supporting in the vertical state, a position of the lower left bracket 522 in the left and right direction in relation to the chassis frame 21 is equal to a position of the upper left bracket 512 in the left and right direction in relation to chassis frame 21. With vehicle 1 supporting in the vertical state, a position of the lower right bracket 522 in the left and right direction relative to the chassis frame 21 is equal to a position of the upper right bracket 512 in the left and right direction. in relation to the chassis frame 21.
[073] The lower cross portion 52 is connected to the lower portion of the left side portion 53 and the lower portion of the right side portion 54 through lower left supports 522 and lower right supports 522, respectively. This allows the lower transverse portion 52 to rotate about the left direction axis N1 and right direction axis N2 with respect to the left side portion 53 and right side portion 54, respectively.
[074] Thus, by being configured in the manner described above, the connection mechanism 5 can be deformed into a plane containing the upper transverse portion 51, the lower transverse portion 52, the left side portion 53 and the side portion right 54, it is observed that the linkage mechanism 5 is mounted on the barrel 211. Because of this, although the steering axle 60 rotates as the handlebar 23 is steered, the linkage mechanism 5 does not rotate with respect to the frame. chassis 21. tether
[075]The description continues with reference to Figure 2. A tie rod 6 transfers the direction of the handlebar 23 to the left front wheel 31 and right front wheel 32. By doing this, the left front wheel 31 and right front wheel 32 can be driven by handlebar 23. Tie-rod 6 is provided in front of barrel 211. Tie-rod 6 extends in the left and right direction. Tie 6 is disposed below lower transverse portion 52 and above left front wheel 31 and right front wheel 32. Tie 6 is connected to a lower portion of steering axle 60. When steering axle 60 is rotated, tie rod 6 moves laterally to the left or right. Supports
[076]As shown in figure 2, the first bracket 335 is provided in the lower portion of the left side portion 53. .the first bracket 335 is connected to the left damper 33.
[077] The first support 335 is provided so as to rotate with respect to the left side portion 53. The tie 6 is also provided on the first support 335 so as to rotate with respect to the left side portion 53. A swivel axis in the which the first support 335 rotates with respect to the left side portion 53 and a pivot axis in which the first support 335 rotates with respect to the tie rod 6 are parallel to the left direction geometric axis N1 along which the left side portion 53 extends and.
[078] The second bracket 336 is provided in the lower portion of the right side portion 54. The second bracket 336 is connected to the right damper 34. The second bracket 336 is provided to rotate relative to the right side portion 54. tie rod 6 is also provided on the second support 336 so as to rotate with respect to the right side portion 54. A pivot axis in which the second support 336 pivots with respect to the right side portion 54 and a pivot axis in which the second support 336 pivots with respect to the tie rod 6 are parallel to the right direction geometric axis N2 along the right side portion 54 extends e.
[079]When steering shaft 60 rotates as a result of handlebar 23 being steered, tie rod 6 moves laterally to the left or right. Then, the first support 335 pivots about the pivot axis in which the first support 335 pivots with respect to the left-hand portion 53 as the rod 6 thus moves. This moves a connecting portion 52b where the first bracket 335 connects to the left damper 33 in the left and right direction, and the left front wheel 31 rotates about the axis of rotation 312.
[080]Therefore, the first bracket 335 transfers the direction of the handlebar 23 to the left front wheel 31. Similarly, the second bracket 336 transfers the direction of the handlebar 23 to the right front wheel 32. Configuration of the front portion of the vehicle

Additionally, the front cover 221 and a windshield 222 are provided in order to cover the headlamp 81 and the hydraulic unit 82. In the following description, the headlight 81, the hydraulic unit 82, the front cover 221 and the windshield 222 can be called a vehicle component all together.
[082]It is noted that the hydraulic unit 82 is a unit that is used in an ABS (Anti-lock Braking System). The hydraulic unit 82 includes a metal box, a flow path provided in the box, a pump and solenoid valves. Hydraulic unit 82 controls a brake system, not shown, by switching paths through which brake fluid flows through the solenoid valves.
[083] The vehicle component is supported on the barrel 211 through a mounting bracket 7. In the following description, the headlamp 81 and the hydraulic unit 82 will be taken as an example of a vehicle component, and a construction will be described in which the headlamp 81 and hydraulic unit 82 are attached to chassis frame 21.
[084] Figure 4 is a perspective view of the attachment bracket 7. Figure 5 is a front view showing the attachment bracket 7, part of the headlamp 81, and hydraulic unit 82. As shown in figures 4, 5, the clamping bracket 7 integrally includes a plate portion 71 and an extension portion 72 extending obliquely from the plate portion 71. It is noted that the headlamp 81 and hydraulic unit 82 overlap the connecting mechanism 5 at least partially when the vehicle is seen from the front of it as shown in figures 2 and 5.
[085] As shown in Figure 4, a first threaded hole 711 and a second threaded hole 712 are provided in the plate portion 71. A screw that is fixed to the first penetration portion 211a extending from the barrel 211 is inserted through the first threaded hole 711. A bolt which is fixed to the second penetration portion 211b extending from the pipe 211 is inserted through the second threaded hole 712. The support bracket 7 is secured to the pipe 211 by fixing the bolts in the corresponding penetration portions.
[086] A first support 73 is formed in a lower portion on one side of the plate portion 71 that faces the front of the vehicle. A third threaded hole 731 is provided in a middle transverse portion of the first bearing 73. A pair of fourth threaded holes 732 is provided outward of the third threaded hole 731. A pair of fifth threaded holes 733 is provided out of the pair of fourth holes threaded holes 732. A pair of sixth threaded holes 734 is provided out of the pair of fifth threaded holes 733.
[087] As shown in figure 5, a screw is screwed through the third threaded hole 731 in the first support 73 to secure a fastening piece 821 of the hydraulic unit 82 in place. Bolts are screwed through the fourth threaded holes 732 in the first bearing 73 to secure a fastener 822 of the hydraulic unit 82 in place. The hydraulic unit 82 is fixed to the fixing bracket 7 by screwing the screws through the corresponding threaded holes.
[088]Screws are screwed through the fifth threaded holes 733 and sixth threaded holes 734 into the first bearing 73 to secure the headlamp 81 in place. The headlamp 81 is fixed to the fixing bracket 7 in this way.
[089] As shown in Figure 4, a second support 74 and a third support 75 are provided at a distal end of the extension portion 72. As shown in Figure 3, the windshield 222 is attached to the second support 74. The cover front 221 is fixed to the third support 75.
[090]The vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame 21 via the mounting bracket 7 in the manner described above. This fixing bracket 7 is fixed to the first penetration portion 211 and the second penetration portion 211b which project forward from the barrel 211 to penetrate through the connecting mechanism 5. Vehicle chassis tilt
[091] Figure 6 is a general front view of vehicle 1 in which the vehicle chassis is induced to tilt at an angle T in the left and right direction with respect to the perpendicular direction from the state shown in figure 2. When the mechanism link 5 is actuated to operate, vehicle 1 tilts with respect to the perpendicular direction.
[092] When this occurs, the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower transverse portion 52 are rotated in the left and right direction while the direction in which it extends in is kept parallel to the surface of the road G. the upper transverse portion 51 and the transverse portion The lower 52 rotate about the upper left axis M2 and the lower left axis M5, respectively, with respect to the left side portion 53. Additionally, the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower transverse portion 52 rotate around the right axis upper M3 and lower right axis M6, respectively, with respect to the right-hand portion 54.
[093] When the vehicle is viewed from the front of the vehicle, with the vehicle supporting in the vertical state, the upper transverse portion 51, the lower transverse portion 52, the left side portion 53 and the right side portion 54 form a rectangular shape and are deformed when the vehicle is induced to lean. Next, when the vehicle is induced to lean further, the upper transverse portion 51, the lower transverse portion 53, the left side portion 53, and the right side portion 54 are deformed into a parallelogram. In the following description, when viewed from a direction that is parallel to the upper median axis M1 of the upper cross portion 51 and the lower median axis M4 of the lower cross portion 52, an area that includes the upper cross portion 51, the cross portion lower 52, the left side portion 53 and the right side portion 54 and which is defined within the parallelogram which is formed by these four portions will be called an operating space of the connecting mechanism 5.
[094] In this embodiment, the link mechanism 5 operates so that a left end of the upper cross portion 51 moves more to the left than a left end of the lower cross portion 52. When the link mechanism 5 operates in this way, the left damper 33 and right damper 34 tilt with respect to the perpendicular direction. When vehicle 1 tilts to the left with respect to the perpendicular direction in the manner described above, the state of vehicle 1 changes from the state shown in figure 2 to the state shown in figure 5.
[095]Vehicle 1 according to this mode can be rotated by causing the vehicle chassis to tilt left or right while vehicle 1 is running. Additionally, the directions of the left front wheel 31 and right front wheel 32 can also be changed by operating the handlebar 23.
[096] As shown in Figure 3, in this embodiment, the upper transverse portion 51 of the link mechanism 5 is located in front of the barrel 211 of the chassis frame 21. Here, an area that is surrounded by an outer edge of a strip where the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower front transverse portion 52A which lie ahead of the barrel 211 move relative to the chassis frame 21 when the vehicle is induced to lean at the greatest possible angle to the left or right is called a front movable outer edge V (see figures 2, 3 and 6).
[097] As shown in Figure 2, the connecting mechanism 5 has a wall portion that composes the first direct hole 513 that functions as the direct portion defining a space that does not overlap the upper transverse portion 51 that lies ahead of the pipe 211 when the upper transverse portion 51 rotates relative to the chassis frame 21. The space defined by the first direct hole 513 is provided on the moving front outer edge V as seen from the direction of the upper medial axis M1.
[098] The first penetration portion 211a (an example of a component support portion) extends from the barrel 211 forward into that space which is defined by the first direct hole 513. The headlamp 81, the hydraulic unit 82, the front cover 221 and the like are attached to the attachment bracket 7 which is attached to the first penetration portion 211a. Namely, the vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame 21 through the first penetration portion 211a which is disposed in the space defined by the wall portion composing the first direct hole 513 is defined.
[099] In addition, as shown in Figure 2, the connection mechanism 5 has a wall portion that makes up the second direct hole 523 that functions as the direct portion defining a space that does not overlap the front lower transverse portion 51 that is located at the front of the barrel 211 when the front lower transverse portion 52A rotates with respect to the chassis frame 21. The space defined by this second direct hole 523 is provided on the front movable outer edge V as seen from the direction of the lower medial axis M4 .
[0100] The second penetration portion 21b (an example of a component support portion) extends from the barrel 211 forwardly into that space which is defined by the second direct hole 523. The headlamp 81, the hydraulic unit 82, the front cover 221 and the like are attached to the attachment bracket 7 which is attached to the second penetration portion 211b. Namely, the vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame 21 through the second penetration portion 211b which is disposed in the space defined by the wall portion composing the second direct hole 512 is defined. Functions and advantages
[0101] The vehicle 1 according to the embodiment that was described above includes: the chassis frame 21; the left front wheel 31 and the right front wheel 32 which are arranged in the left and right direction as seen from the front of the vehicle and which can be steered; the left damper 33 which supports the left front wheel 31 in the lower portion thereof and which absorbs the upward displacement of the left front wheel 31 in the up and down direction of the chassis frame 1; the right damper 34 which supports the right front wheel 32 in the lower portion thereof and which absorbs the upward displacement of the right front wheel 32 in the up and down direction of the chassis frame 21; the link mechanism 5; and the vehicle components such as the headlamp 81, the hydraulic unit 82, the front cover 221, the windshield 222 and the like which are arranged in front of the link mechanism 5.
[0102] The link mechanism 5 includes: the right side portion 54 that supports the upper portion of the right damper 34 so as to rotate around the right direction axis N2 that extends in the up and down direction of the frame. chassis 21; the left side portion 53 which supports the upper portion of the left damper 33 so as to rotate about the left direction axis N1 which is parallel to the right direction axis N2; and the plurality of transverse portions (the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower transverse portion 52) which support the right side portion 54 on the extreme right portions thereof so as to rotate about the right axis (the upper right axis M3 and the lower right geometry axis M6) which extends in the front and rear direction of the chassis frame 21 and supports the left side portion 53 at the far left portions thereof so as to rotate about the left geometry axes (the upper left axis M2 and the lower left geometry axis M5) which are parallel to the right geometry axes M3, M6 and which are supported on the barrel 211 (an example of a connecting support portion) which is part of the chassis frame 21 at the middle portions thereof so as to rotate about the mean geometry axes M1, M4 which are parallel to the right geometry axes M3, M6 and the left geometry axes M2, M5.
[0103] The upper transverse portion 51 is located in front of the barrel 211 of the chassis frame 21. The link mechanism 5 has the wall portion (an example of a direct portion) which is provided on the moving front outer edge V at relation to the chassis frame 21 of the front transverse portion 50A (the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower front transverse portion 52A) which lies ahead of the chassis frame 21 as seen from the direction of the upper medial axis M1 and which makes up the first through hole 513 defining the space that does not overlap the front cross portion 50A which lies ahead of the chassis frame 21 when the front cross portion 50A rotates relative to the chassis frame 21.
[0104] Vehicle components such as the headlamp 81, the hydraulic unit 82, the front cover 221 and the like are supported on the chassis frame 21 through the first penetration portion 211a (an example of a component support portion) which is disposed in the space defined by the wall portion composing the first direct hole 513 is formed.
[0105] Additionally, the front lower transverse portion 52A which is at least part of the transverse portion 50 is located in front of the barrel 211. The link mechanism 5 has the wall portion (an example of a straight portion) that is provided on the front movable outer edge V with respect to the chassis frame 21 of the front transverse portion 50A which lies ahead of the chassis frame 21 as seen from the direction of the lower medial axis M4 and which makes up the second direct hole 523 which defines the space that does not overlap the front transverse portion 50A which lies ahead of the chassis frame 21 when the front transverse portion 50A rotates relative to the chassis frame 21.
[0106] Vehicle components such as the headlamp 81, the hydraulic unit 82, the front cover 221 and the like are supported on the chassis frame 21 through the second penetration portion 211b (an example of a component support portion) which is disposed in the space defined by the wall portion defining the second direct hole 523 is formed.
[0107] The inventors studied the provision of a vehicle that can support a vehicle component that is disposed ahead of a linkage mechanism in a secured mode without enlarging a front portion of the vehicle.
[0108]So the inventors studied a configuration that can make a support construction to support a compact-sized vehicle component. It is preferable to support a vehicle component by a chassis frame to support the vehicle component highly rigidly. When attempting to arrange the vehicle component directly in front of the link mechanism, the support construction to support the vehicle component needs to be disposed in a position where the support construction does not interfere with the link mechanism while the link mechanism operates.
[0109] In the vehicle described in patent document 1, the component support portion that supports the vehicle component is formed so as to move around the movable outer edge that is formed by the transverse portion when the transverse portion is rotated through the angle as possible as seen from the direction of the mean geometric axis to avoid its interference with the binding mechanism. Specifically, the vehicle of Patent Document 1 has the upper support extending from the chassis frame to the front of the link mechanism by moving above the movable outer edge of the link mechanism and the lower support extending from the chassis frame up to the front of the link mechanism by moving below the movable outer edge. The space to arrange the upper support is ensured above the mobile outer edge and the space to provide the lower support is ensured below the mobile outer edge, and therefore the front portion of the vehicle is increased.
[0110] Additionally, in the vehicle of Patent Document 1, the component support portion is formed so as to move around the movable outer edge of the link mechanism to thereby connect together the chassis frame which lies behind the mechanism linkage and the vehicle component which is located in front of the linkage mechanism. Due to this, the component support portion is made of the highly rigid element, and the side of the component support portion itself becomes large e.
[0111] In the vehicle of patent document 1, the front portion of the vehicle tends to be enlarged for these reasons.
[0112] Incidentally, the inventor paid attention to the configuration in which the upper cross portion 51 and the lower cross portion 52 of the link mechanism 5 are made of the elements that are thick in the up and down direction of the chassis frame 21 because the upper transverse portion 51 and lower transverse portion 51 bear the loads exerted on the front wheels 31, 32.
[0113] As shown in Figure 3, when its vertical sections taken along the geometric axis of the steering axis 60 are seen from the left and right direction of the chassis frame 21, the upper cross portion 51 and the lower cross portion 52 are longer in the up and down direction than in the front and rear direction of chassis frame 21. Additionally, as shown in figure 3, when their vertical sections taken along the left direction axis N1 are seen from the the left and right direction of the chassis frame 21, the upper cross portions 51 and the lower cross portion 52 are longer in the up and down direction than in the front and rear direction of the chassis frame 21. Furthermore, when your vertical sections taken along the right direction geometric axis N2 are seen from the left and right direction of the chassis frame 21, the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower transverse portion. erior 52 are longer in the up and down direction than in the front and rear direction of frame frame 21.
[0114] Thereby, since the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower transverse portion 52 are made of the thick elements, space is provided between the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower transverse portion 52 so that the connecting mechanism 5 can operate even when the vehicle 1 tilts relative to the road surface G. furthermore, since a recess portion, a hole portion or the like can be provided in the thick element, it is possible to define a space that does not overlap the upper transverse portion 51 and lower transverse portion 52 even at the moving front outer edge V as seen from the direction of the mean geometric axis by imagining the shape of the upper transverse portion 51.
[0115] Then, the inventor realized that in the case of a direct portion defining a space that the front cross portion 50A located in front of the barrel 211 does not overlap when the front cross portion 50A located in front of the barrel 211 does not overlap when the portion front transverse 50A rotates is provided in transverse portion 50 in the space defined between upper transverse portion 51 and lower transverse portion 52 or in a position that overlaps upper transverse portion 51 or lower transverse portion 52 as seen from the direction of the geometric axis upper middle M1, the component support portion that supports the vehicle component can be provided in space.
[0116] In this embodiment, the wall portion that makes up the first through hole 513 is provided in the upper transverse portion 51 as the forward portion, and the first penetration portion 211a as a component support portion is disposed in the space defined by the portion. of the wall of the first through hole 513, whereby the vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame 21 through the first penetration portion 211a. In this embodiment, the wall portion making up the second through hole 523 is provided in the front lower transverse portion 52A as the forward portion, and the second penetrating portion 211b as a component support portion is disposed in the space defined by the wall portion. of the second through hole 523, whereby the vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame 21 through the second penetration portion 211b.
[0117] The clamping portion that makes up the first direct hole 513 defines the space that does not overlap the upper transverse portion 51, and therefore the first penetration portion 211a which is disposed in the space does not interfere with the upper transverse portion 51 when the upper cross portion 51 rotates. Additionally, the first penetration portion 211a may be formed so as to connect together the chassis frame 21 and the vehicle component in a straight manner. This makes it possible to make the component support portion supporting the vehicle component more compact in size than in the vehicle configuration of Patent Document 1 in which the component support portion is provided so as to move around the outside of the moving outer edge. Additionally, according to this embodiment, since the vehicle component can be supported in the position situated close to the chassis frame 21, the rigidity required in the component support portion as the first penetration portion 211a can be made less than in the vehicle configuration of Patent Document 1 in which the vehicle component is supported in the position situated away from the vehicle chassis. This can make the component support portion itself smaller in size than the vehicle component support portion of patent document 1.
[0118] Similarly, the wall portion that makes up the second through hole 523 defines the space that does not overlap the front lower transverse portion 52A, and therefore, the second penetration portion 211b that is disposed in the space does not interfere with the lower transverse portion front 52A when the front lower transverse portion 52A rotates. Additionally, the second penetration portion 211b may be formed so as to connect together the chassis frame 21 and the vehicle component in a straight manner. This makes it possible to make the component support portion supporting the vehicle component more compact in size than in the vehicle configuration of patent document 1 in which the component support portion is provided so as to move around the outside of the moving outer edge. Additionally, according to this embodiment, since the vehicle component can be supported in the position situated close to the chassis frame 21, the rigidity required in the component support portion as the first penetration portion 211a can be made less than in the vehicle configuration of patent document 1 in which the vehicle component is supported in the position situated away from the vehicle chassis. This can make the component support portion itself smaller in size than the vehicle component support portion of patent document 1.
[0119] According to this modality, from these reasons, the vehicle 1 is provided that can support the vehicle component that is disposed in front of the link mechanism 5 in an assured mode without increasing the front portion of the vehicle while avoiding the interference with the link mechanism 5.
[0120] According to vehicle 1 of this modality, the wall portion that composes the first direct hole 513 is located inwards from the outer edge of the upper transverse portion 51 located in front of the barrel 211 as seen from the axis direction geometric mean upper M1.
[0121]According to this modality, the first direct hole 513 and the upper transverse portion 51 overlap each other as seen from the direction of the upper mean geometric axis M1. This makes it easy to compact the construction that supports the vehicle component including the component support portion that is disposed in the space defined by the wall portion that composes the first direct hole 513 as seen from the direction of the upper medial axis M1.
[0122] According to the vehicle of this modality, the first penetration portion 211a is located in the middle of the upper transverse portion 51 in relation to the left and right direction of the chassis frame 21. Namely, the first penetration portion 211a is located it is closer to the upper medial axis M1 than the far left portion and the far right portion of the upper transverse portion 51 which lies ahead of the barrel 211.
[0123]According to the vehicle of this modality, the upper mean geometric axis M1 lies in the space defined by the wall portion that makes up the first direct hole 513 as seen from the direction of the upper mean geometric axis M1.
[0124]The upper transverse portion 51 rotates around the upper median axis M1. The first penetration portion 211a extends from the barrel 211 to penetrate the upper transverse portion 51, projecting from there to the front. Because of this, the wall portion of the first through hole 513 which defines the space in which the first penetration portion 211a is disposed can be made smaller when the first penetration portion 211a is disposed closer to the upper mean geometric axis M1 as in this modality. Additionally, in the event that the upper median axis M1 is positioned in the space that is defined by the wall portion of the first direct hole 513, the first penetration portion 211a does not interfere with the upper transverse portion 51.
[0125] According to the vehicle of the embodiment, the first penetration portion 211a is a portion where the attachment bracket 7 that supports the vehicle component is attached and a portion where the upper transverse portion 51 is supported so as to rotate. Namely, the first penetration portion 211a which is the component support portion is configured as part of a pivot support portion which supports the upper transverse portion 51 in the barrel 211 so as to pivot with respect thereto. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first penetration portion 211a and the upper middle bracket 511 which is fitted to the first penetration portion 211a constitute the portion where the upper transverse portion 51 is rotatably supported. The first penetration portion 211a and an inner ring of the upper middle bracket 511 which is fitted to the first penetration portion 211a constitute the portion where the attachment bracket 7 is secured.
[0126] According to this modality, the vehicle having the two front wheels 31, 32, and the linking mechanism 5 has the swivel support portion that supports the upper transverse portion 51 constituting part of the linking mechanism 5 so to rotate. The vehicle component can be mounted on the vehicle while being supported with the simple configuration because the component support portion that supports the vehicle component can be composed using the swivel support portion.
[0127] According to the vehicle of the present embodiment, the vehicle component is supported on the barrel 211 of the chassis frame 21.
[0128]Impacts coming into the front wheels 31, 32 are transferred to the link mechanism 5. Due to this, the barrel 211 supporting the link mechanism 5 is highly rigid. Since the vehicle component is supported on the barrel 211 which is highly rigid, the supporting rigidity of the vehicle component is high.
[0129] According to the vehicle of this modality, the fixing bracket 7 that supports the vehicle component is supported on the barrel 211 through the first penetration portion 211a and second penetration portion 211b.
[0130] Namely, in this embodiment, two direct portions of the wall portion of the first through hole 513 and the wall portion of the second through hole 523 and the two component support portions of the first penetration portion 211a that are disposed in the space defined by the wall portion of the first through hole 513 and second penetration portion 211b which is disposed in the space defined by the wall portion of the second through hole 523. component support, the vehicle component support rigidity becomes high. Additionally, compared to the case where the vehicle component is supported by the single component support portion, the two component support portions can be individually formed smaller, and therefore it is easy to avoid the component support portions from interfering with the transverse portion. Furthermore, the formation of each of the small component support portions makes it easy to avoid their interference with the binding mechanism.
[0131] In this embodiment, although the two-component support portions are described as being arranged to be aligned between the up and down direction of the chassis frame 21, the number of component support portions and their arrangement are not is limited to those described in the modality. Additionally, in that embodiment, although the single element (the fastening bracket 7) is described as being supported by the two-component support portions, different elements may be individually supported by the two-component support portions.
[0132] According to the vehicle of this mode, the hydraulic unit 82 is supported on the chassis frame 21 through the first penetration portion 211a and second penetration portion 211b that extends forward from the chassis frame 21 and support attachment 7. However, the invention is not limited to this example. The component support portion that supports the hydraulic unit 82 may be at least any of the vehicle components itself and the fixing bracket that secures the vehicle component to the chassis frame 21.
[0133]For example, a configuration can be adopted in which a bolt is used as a component support portion while a nut is provided on the vehicle component and chassis frame, whereby the vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame 21 for securing the bolt and nuts together. Additionally, the component support portion can be composed of the plurality of components as in this embodiment, or it can be composed of a single component.
[0134] Although the invention has been described to date by the use of its modality, the technical scope of the invention is not limited to the technical scope that is descriptively defined in the modality. It is obvious to those skilled in the art to which the invention relates that various changes or improvements can be made to the modality. With reference to Figures 7 to 12, various embodiments of the invention will be described below. First modified example
[0135] In the embodiment described above, the first penetrating portion 211a is described as penetrating the first direct hole 513 which includes the geometric axis of rotation of the upper transverse portion 51 and the second penetration portion 211b penetrates the second direct hole 523 which includes the axis of rotation of the front lower transverse portion 52A. However, the invention is not limited to this example.
[0136] Figure 7 is a view showing an upper transverse portion 151, a lower front transverse portion 152, a left side portion 53, a right side portion 54 and a hydraulic unit 82 that result when viewed from the direction of an upper median axis M1, and a barrel 211 is omitted from the illustration. For example, as in a vehicle according to a modified example shown in figure 7, a configuration can be adopted in which the first penetration portions penetrate positions in the upper first cross-section 151 where the swivel axes of the upper cross-section 151 do not pass. and the second penetration portions penetrate positions in the front lower transverse portion 152A where the geometric axes of rotation of the front lower transverse portion 152A do not pass.
[0137] Specifically, as shown in Figure 7, a through hole 514 is provided in the upper cross portion 151 individually between an upper middle support 511 and an upper right support 512 and between the upper middle support 511 and an upper left support 512. first penetration portions 211a penetrate through holes 514. First through holes 514 are sized so as not to interfere with first penetration portions 211a even when a link mechanism 5 operates as the vehicle leans. Both the upper transverse portion 151 and the lower forward transverse portion 152A are provided in front of a pipe 211.
[0138] As with the upper transverse portion 151, a second through hole 524 is formed in the front lower transverse portion 152A individually between a lower middle support 521 and a lower right support 522 and between the lower middle support 521 and a lower left support 522 The second penetration portions 211b penetrate into the second through holes 524. The second through holes 524 are sized so as not to interfere with the second penetration portions 211b even when the link mechanism 5 operates as the vehicle tilts. By adopting this configuration, the second penetration portions 211b are induced to penetrate a moving front outer edge V of the link mechanism 5, so that the vehicle component such as hydraulic unit 82 or the like can be supported in front of the link mechanism. link 5 without enlarging a front portion of the vehicle.
[0139] Namely, the link mechanism 5 has wall portions of the first direct holes 514 that are provided on the front movable outer edges V in relation to the chassis frame 21 of the upper cross portion 151 and front lower cross portion 152A that are located in front of the chassis frame 21 as seen from the direction of the upper medial axis M1 and defining spaces that do not overlap the upper transverse portion 151 which lies ahead of the chassis frame 21 when the upper transverse portion 151 rotates in relation to the chassis frame 21.
[0140] In addition, the link mechanism 5 has wall portions of the second direct holes 524 that are provided on the front movable outer edges V in relation to the chassis frame 21 of the upper cross portion 151 and front lower cross portion 152A that lie at the front of the chassis frame 21 as seen from the direction of a lower medial axis M4 and defining spaces that do not overlap the front lower transverse portion 152A which lies ahead of the barrel 211 when the front lower transverse portion 152A rotates in relation to the chassis frame 21.
[0141] The vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame 21 through first penetration portions 211a that are arranged in the spaces that are defined by the wall portions of the first through holes 514 and second penetration portions 211b that are disposed in the spaces that are defined by the wall portions of the second direct holes 524.
[0142] Also in this construction, the first through holes 514 and second through holes 524 are provided using the upper cross portion 151 and the lower front cross portion 152 which are thick in the up and down direction of the chassis frame 21. The component of vehicle is supported on the chassis frame 21 through first penetration portions 211a which are disposed in spaces that are defined by the wall portions of first through holes 514 and second penetration portions 211b that are disposed in spaces that are defined by the portions of wall of the second direct holes 524. By adopting this configuration, it is possible to provide the vehicle 1 that can support the vehicle component that is arranged in front of the link mechanism 5 in a secured mode while avoiding interference with the link mechanism 5 without increase a front portion of the vehicle.
[0143] In this modified example, it is preferable that the direct holes 514, 524 defining the spaces in the first penetration portions 211a and the second penetration portions 211b are provided, are provided at positions which lie closer to the upper middle support 511 (or lower middle bracket 521) than the left side portion 53 and the right side portion 54 with respect to the left and right direction of the chassis frame 21 when viewed from the front of the vehicle. In the event that the first penetrating portions 211a and second penetrating portions 211b are disposed at positions located near the upper median axis M1 and lower median axis M4, respectively, the relative displacements between the upper transverse portion 151 and the transverse portion lower front 152A and between the first penetration portions 211a and the second penetration portions 211b are small when the link mechanism 5 operates. This allows the through holes 514, 524 which define the spaces where the first penetration portions 211a and the second penetration portions 211b are provided are defined as being small in size. Thus, although the sizes of the direct holes 514, 524 are small, contact of the upper transverse portion 151 and the lower forward transverse portion 152A with the first penetration portions 211a and second penetration portions 211b can be avoided by providing the direct holes 514, 524 at positions located near the upper median axis M1 and lower median axis M4, respectively.
[0144] In the vehicle according to this modified example, the wall portions defining the first direct holes 514 define elongated holes that include arcs that are centered on the upper median axis M1 of the upper transverse portion 151. The wall portions defining second straight holes 524 define elongated holes that include arcs that are centered on the lower median axis M4 of the forward lower transverse portion 152A. When the linkage mechanism 5 operates, the upper transverse portion 151 rotates about the lower median axis M1 with respect to the chassis frame 21. The front lower transverse portion 152A rotates about the lower median axis M4 with respect to the chassis frame. chassis 21. Because of this, in the event that the through holes 514, 524 are formed in the shapes described above, the through holes 514, 524 are prevented from being placed in interference with the first penetration portions 211a and second penetration portions 211b , respectively, thereby making it possible to form the small direct holes 514, 524. Second modified example
[0145] Figure 8 shows views that represent a second modified example of the invention. (a) In Figure 8 is a side view showing a barrel 211, an upper cross portion 251, a lower cross portion 252, a mounting bracket 7, and a hydraulic unit 82 which is an example of a vehicle component of a vehicle. according to the second modified example. (b) in figure 8 is a view resulting from visualization (a) in figure 8 of the direction of an upper mean geometric axis M1. (c) in figure 8 is a view in which the upper transverse portion 251 and the lower transverse portion 252 being taken from (b) in figure 8.
[0146] In this modified example, as shown in (a) in Figure 8, both the upper transverse portion 251 and the lower transverse portion 252 are disposed in front of the barrel 211. A relatively wide space is defined between the upper transverse portion 251 and the lower transverse portion 252 with respect to an up and down direction of a chassis frame 21. A front movable outer edge V1 which is defined by the upper transverse portion 251 and a front movable outer edge V2 which is defined by the lower transverse portion 252 are independent of each other.
[0147] As shown in © in Figure 8, as with the embodiment as described above, a second through hole 521 passing through a lower mean axis M4 is provided in the lower transverse portion 252. A second penetration portion 211b is arranged in a space which is defined by a wall portion of the second through hole 521, and the second penetration portion 211b supports the fixing bracket 7. This second penetration portion 211b is provided on the moving front outer edge V2 which is defined by lower transverse portion 252 as seen from the direction of the upper medial axis M1.
[0148]In addition, in this modified example, a third through hole 515 is provided on each side of the upper median axis M1 in the upper transverse portion 251 with respect to a left and right direction of frame frame 21. A wall portion of each of the third through holes 515 comprises a straight portion defining a space that does not overlap the upper cross portion 251 when the upper cross portion 251 rotates relative to the chassis frame 21. The wall portion defined by the third straight hole 515 defines an elongated hole including an arc that is centered on the top mean geometry axis M1 as viewed from the direction of the top mean geometry axis M1. These third direct holes 515 are provided in the moving front outer edge V1 which is defined by the upper transverse portion 251 as seen from the direction of the upper mean geometric axis M1. Third penetration portions 211c are disposed in the spaces defined by the wall portions of the third through holes 515. The third penetration portions 211c support the fixing bracket 7 on the barrel 211.
[0149] Also, in this construction, the second through hole 523 and the third through holes 515 are provided using the cross portions 251, 252 which are thick in the up and down direction of the chassis frame 21. The vehicle component is supported in the chassis frame 21 through the second penetration portion 211b which is disposed in the space that is defined by the wall portion of the second direct hole 523 and third penetration portions 211c that are disposed in the spaces that are defined by the wall portions of the third holes direct links 525. By adopting this configuration, it is possible to provide the vehicle 1 that can support the vehicle component that is disposed in front of the link mechanism 5 in an assured mode while avoiding interference with the link mechanism 5 without increasing a front portion of the vehicle. Third modified example
[0150] Figure 9 shows views representing a third modified example of the invention. (a) in Figure 9 is a side view showing a barrel 211, an upper transverse portion 351, a lower transverse portion 352, a mounting bracket 7, and a hydraulic unit 82 which is an example of a vehicle component of a vehicle. according to the third modified example. (b) in figure 9 is a view resulting from visualization (a) in figure 9 from the direction of an upper mean geometric axis M1.
[0151] In this modified example, as the upper cross portion 351 and lower cross portion 352, the upper cross portion 351 is provided in front of the barrel 211, and the lower cross portion 352 is provided behind the barrel 211.
[0152] As with the embodiment as described above, a first penetration portion 211a is disposed in a space that is defined by a wall portion of a first through hole 513, and the fixing bracket 7 that supports the vehicle component is supported in the upper transverse portion 351 through the first penetration portion 211a. The wall portion of the first straight hole 513 is provided in a moving front outer edge V of the upper transverse portion 351 as seen from the direction of an upper medial axis M1.
[0153] In this modified example, the fixing bracket 7 where vehicle component is supported, is additionally supported on a chassis frame 21 through a connecting portion 211d which is not disposed in the space that is defined by the first direct hole 513, however it is arranged outward from the moving front outer edge V as seen from the direction of the upper mean geometric axis M1. Namely, the connecting portion 211d is spaced away downwardly from the moving front outer edge V of the upper transverse portion 351 to be provided in a position which lies away from the upper transverse portion 351 as seen from the direction of the Upper mean geometric axis M1.
[0154] In this modified example, the fixing bracket 7 is strongly and rigidly supported on the chassis frame 21 by the first penetration portion 211a and connecting portion 211d. Additionally, since the support rigidity is ensured by the first penetration portion 211a which is provided on the moving front outer edge V as seen from the upper median axis M1 to be disposed in the space which is defined by the first direct hole 513, although the connecting portion 211d is provided which is arranged outwardly from the leading movable outer edge V as seen from the direction of the upper medial axis M1, it is difficult to increase the support construction of the vehicle component. Fourth modified example
[0155] Figure 10 shows views representing a fourth modified example of the invention. (a) in Figure 10 is a side view showing a barrel 211, an upper transverse portion 451, a lower transverse portion 452, a fixing bracket 7 and a hydraulic unit 82 which is an example of a vehicle component of a vehicle. according to the fourth modified example. (b) in figure 10 is a view resulting from viewing (a) in figure 10 from the direction of an upper mean geometric axis M1. (c) in figure 10 is a view in which the upper transverse portion 451 and the lower transverse portion 452 being taken from (b) in figure 10.
[0156] In this modified example, both the upper transverse portion 451 and the lower transverse portion 452 are disposed in front of the barrel 211.
[0157] In this modified example, both the upper transverse portion 451 and the lower transverse portion 452 are provided in front of the barrel 211. The upper transverse portion 451 and the lower transverse portion 452 are arranged close together in an upward direction and down a chassis frame 21, and therefore the upper transverse portion 452 and the lower transverse portion 452 form a front movable outer edge V which is defined by a continuous combination of movable outer edges which are individually defined by the transverse portions Superior and inferior.
[0158]Two forward wall portions 516 (an example of a forward portion) are formed on a lower surface of the upper cross portion 451 so as to be wedged upwards in the upward and downward direction of the chassis frame 21. The two forward wall portions 516 are provided individually in a left portion and a right portion of the lower surface of the upper cross portion 451 with respect to the left and right direction of the chassis frame 21. Spaces defined by the forward wall portions 416 penetrate the upper cross portion 451 in the direction of the upper mean geometric axis M1.
[0159]Two forward wall portions 526 (an example of a forward portion) are formed on an upper surface of the lower cross portion 452 so as to be tamped down in the up and down direction of the chassis frame 21. The two forward wall portions 526 are provided individually in a left portion and a right portion of the lower surface of the lower cross portion 452 with respect to the left and right direction of the chassis frame 21. Spaces defined by the forward wall portions 526 penetrate the lower cross portion 452 in the direction of a lower mean geometric axis M4. The direct wall portions 526 in the lower transverse portion 452 are formed in the same position as the direct wall portions 516 in the upper transverse portion 451 with respect to the left and right direction of the chassis frame 21 as seen from the direction of the lower mean axis. M4.
[0160] As shown in (b) in Figure 10, as seen from the direction of the upper mean geometric axis M1, the direct wall portions 516, 526 are provided at the front movable outer edge V which is defined by the upper transverse portion 451 and lower transverse portion 452. Direct wall portions 516, 526 define a space V3 that does not overlap the upper transverse portion 451 and lower transverse portion 452 which lie in front of the barrel 211 when the upper transverse portion 452 and the lower transverse portion 452 rotate relative to chassis frame 21.
[0161] The fixing bracket 7 supporting the hydraulic unit 82 is supported on the chassis frame 21 through fourth penetration portions 211e which are arranged in the space V3 which is defined by the direct wall portions 516, 526.
[0162] In this modified example, since the vehicle component is supported on the chassis frame 21 by the fourth penetration portions 211e which are provided on the moving front outer edge V and are arranged in the space V3 which is defined by the direct wall portions 516, 526 as seen from the direction of the upper medial axis M1, the support construction of the vehicle component is difficult to be enlarged.
[0163] According to the vehicle of this modified example, a linkage mechanism 5 has the upper transverse portion 451 (an example of an upper transverse portion which lies ahead of the barrel 211 and the lower transverse portion 452 (an example of a front lower transverse portion) of which the lower medial axis M4 lies below the upper transverse portion 451 and which lies ahead of the barrel 211.
[0164] Direct wall portions 516, 526 have direct wall portions 516 (an example of an upper direct portion) that is part of a lower edge of the upper transverse portion 451 and direct wall portions 526 (an example of a lower straight portion) that forms part of an upper edge of the lower transverse portion 452.
[0165] According to the vehicle of this modified example, it is possible to provide the fourth penetration portions 211a by making use of the space between the upper transverse portion 451 and the lower transverse portion 452. vehicle to be increased. Fifth modified example
[0166] Figure 11 is a side sectional view including a linking mechanism 5 of a vehicle 1 according to a fifth modified example of the invention. Figure 12 is a sectional view taken along IX-IX in Figure 11 which results when Figure 11 is viewed from the direction of an upper mean geometric axis M1.
[0167] In this modified example, the linking mechanism 5 includes an upper transverse portion and a lower transverse portion. The upper transverse portion includes a front upper transverse portion 51A and a rear upper transverse portion 51B. The lower transverse portion includes a lower front portion 52A and a lower rear transverse portion 52B. A front transverse portion 50A including the front upper transverse portion 51A and the front lower transverse portion 52A are located ahead of a barrel 211. The front upper transverse portion 51A and the front lower transverse portion 52A form a movable forward outer edge V which is formed by a continuous combination of moving outer edges that are defined by the front top and bottom transverse portions.
[0168] In the embodiment described above, the first penetrating portion 211a and the second penetrating portion 211b are described as individually penetrating the upper transverse portion 51 and the lower transverse portion 52. However, the invention is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in Figure 11, a configuration can be adopted in which a fifth penetration portion 211f penetrates a defined space between the front upper transverse portion 51A and the front lower transverse portion 52A. For example, as shown in Figure 11, a configuration can be adopted in which the fifth penetration portion 211f is located below the front upper transverse portion 51A and above the front lower transverse portion 52A.
[0169] As shown in Figure 12, space forming portions 517, 527 (an example of a straight portion) are formed individually in the upper rear transverse portion 51B and lower rear transverse portion 52B. Although not shown, the space forming portions 517 are formed so as to stretch in a forward-to-rear direction from the front upper transverse portion 51A to the rear upper transverse portion 51B. The space forming portions 527 are formed to stretch in a forward and aft direction from the front lower cross portion 52A to the rear lower cross portion 52B. The space forming portions 517 limit the front upper transverse portion 51A and the rear upper transverse portion 51B from moving relative to the barrel 211 when the link mechanism 5 operates. The space forming portions 527 limit the front lower transverse portion 52A and the rear lower transverse portion 52B from moving relative to the barrel 211 when the link mechanism 5 operates. The space forming portions 517, 527 limit the front upper transverse portion 51A and the front lower transverse portion 52A from moving when the link mechanism 5 operates to thereby form a space between the front upper transverse portion 51A and the front lower transverse portion. 52A.
[0170] When the link mechanism 5 operates at a predetermined amount, the space forming portions 517 are placed in contact with the barrel 211 to limit the relative movement of the upper front transverse portion 51A and the upper rear transverse portion 51B of the barrel 211 Similarly, when the link mechanism 5 operates at a predetermined amount, the space-forming portions 527 are placed in contact with the barrel 211 to limit the relative movement of the front lower transverse portion 2A and rear lower transverse portion 52B to the barrel 211. By doing this, when the linking mechanism 5 is operated in a predetermined amount, the reduction in extension of the space between the front upper transverse portion 51A and the front lower transverse portion 52A is avoided, and the reduction in extension of the space between the upper rear transverse portion 52B and lower rear transverse portion 52B is avoided. By so doing, the fifth straight portion 211f is prevented from being brought into contact with the upper cross portion 51A and the front lower cross portion 52A. Thereby, the space forming portions 517, 527 form the space so that the front upper transverse portion 51A and the front lower transverse portion 52A are prevented from being brought into contact with the fifth penetration portion 211.
[0171] Namely, the space forming portions 517, 527 form a space that does not overlap the front cross portion 50A when the front cross portion 50A rotates relative to the chassis frame 21 into a moving front outer edge V that constitutes an outer edge of a location that is defined when the front transverse portion 50A rotates relative to the chassis frame 21 as seen from the direction of the median geometric axes M1, M4. Vehicle component such as hydraulic unit 82 is supported on chassis frame 21 through fifth penetration portion 211f (an example of a component support portion) which is disposed in the space defined by space forming portions 517, 527. fifth penetration portion 211f penetrates below a movable outer edge of the front upper transverse portion 51A and above a movable outer edge of the front lower transverse portion 52A as seen from the direction of the medial axes M1, M4. The fifth penetration portion 211f penetrates a space which is defined by a location which is defined by a lower edge of the front upper cross portion 51A when the front upper cross portion 51A rotates relative to the chassis frame 21 and a location which is defined by an upper edge of the front lower transverse portion 52A when the front lower transverse portion 52A rotates relative to the chassis frame 21 as seen from the direction of the medial axes M1, M4. The fifth penetration portion 211f penetrates the leading movable outer edge V which is formed by a continuous combination of respective movable outer edges of the front upper transverse portion 51A and the front lower transverse portion 52A as seen from the direction of the mean geometric axes M1, M4.
[0172] This configuration also allows the vehicle component to be supported in front of the link mechanism 5 without increasing a front portion of the vehicle by causing the fifth penetration portion 211f to penetrate into the interior of the movable front outer edge V with respect to the chassis frame 21 of the front transverse portion 50A.
[0173] It is noted that the space forming portions 517, 527 should form the space that does not overlap the front cross portion 50A when the front cross portion 50A rotates relative to the chassis frame 21 into the moving front outer edge V that is defined by front upper transverse portion 51A and front lower transverse portion 52A and accordingly, the invention is not limited to what is described in this modified example. For example, space forming portions 527 may be provided in the lower transverse portion that includes the lower front transverse portion 52A and lower rear transverse portion 52B than the lower front transverse portion 52A and lower rear transverse portion 52B. Alternatively, the space-forming portions may be provided in the front transverse portion or the lower transverse portion and do not have to be provided in the other.
[0174] However, as shown in Figures 11 and 12, when trying to make the fifth penetration portion 211f penetrate into the space between the upper transverse portion and the lower transverse portion, one dimension in the up and down direction of the link 5 tends to be enlarged in order to secure space. In contrast to this, in the embodiment shown in figures 1 to 6, the first through hole 513 and the second through hole 523 include pivot centers or geometric axes that do not move while the link mechanism 5 operates. It is preferable that the first penetrating portion 211a and the second penetrating portion 211b penetrate the first through hole 513 and the second through hole 523, respectively. Since the through holes 513, 523 do not move while the connecting mechanism 5 operates, the through holes 513, 523 that are provided in the connecting mechanism 5 may be the smallest through holes that allow penetration of the first penetration portion 211a and the second portion of penetration 22b. Parallel, extend, along
[0175] When mentioned in this description, “parallel” also includes two straight lines that do not intersect each other as elements although they are tilted in the range of ± 40 degrees. When used in conjunction with a "direction" and an "element" in the invention, "along" also includes a case where which follows the direction and the element is tilted relative to it in the range of ± 40 degrees. When used in conjunction with a "direction" in the invention, "extend" also includes a case where extending is tilted relative to the direction in the range of ± 0 degrees. Four wheels, power unit, chassis cover
[0176] The vehicle according to the invention is the vehicle that includes the tiltable chassis frame and the two front wheels. The number of rear wheels is not limited to one, and consequently it can be two. The vehicle may include the chassis cover that covers the chassis frame. The vehicle may not include the chassis cover that covers the chassis frame. The power unit includes the power earphone. The source of power is not limited to the motor and therefore can be an electric motor. Pipe and side portions
[0177] In the modality of modified examples described above, the right side portion 53, the left side portion 54 and the barrel 211 (the connecting support portion) are provided in positions that are superimposed on each other when the chassis frame 21 is seen from one side of it. However, when the chassis frame 21 is viewed from the side thereof, the barrel 211 can be provided in a different position from the positions where the right side portion 53 and the left side portion 54 are provided with respect to the front and rear steering. Additionally, angles at which the right side portion 53 and the left side portion 54 are angled relative to the up and down direction of the chassis frame 21 may differ from an angle at which the barrel 211 is angled. Binding Support Portion
[0178]The connecting support portion (the barrel) may be composed of a single part or a plurality of parts. In case the connecting support portion is composed of a plurality of parts, the parts can be joined by welding, bonding or the like. Alternatively, the parts can be joined with fastening elements such as screws, rivets, or the like. Transverse portions, side portions
[0179] The upper transverse portion may include an upper front transverse portion which is composed of a single portion, an upper rear transverse portion which is composed of a single portion, and a connecting element which is provided between the upper and lower transverse portions and which is composed of a plurality of parts. In case the connecting support portion is composed of a plurality of parts, the parts can be joined by welding, bonding or the like. Alternatively, the parts can be joined with fastening elements such as screws, rivets or the like.
[0180] The lower transverse portion may include a lower front transverse portion which is composed of a single portion, a lower rear transverse portion which is composed of a single portion, and a connecting element that is provided between the lower front and rear transverse portions and which is composed of a plurality of parts. In case the connecting support portion is composed of a plurality of parts, the parts can be joined by welding, bonding or the like. Alternatively the parts can be units with fastening elements such as screws, rivets or the like.
[0181]The right side portion and the left side portion can be individually composed of a single part or a plurality of parts. In case the connecting support portion is composed of a plurality of parts, the parts can be joined by welding, bonding or the like. Alternatively the parts can be joined with fastening elements such as screws, rivets or similar. The right side portion and the left side portion may individually include a portion that is disposed in front of the upper cross portion or the lower cross portion in the front and rear direction of the vehicle chassis frame and a portion that is disposed behind the portion. upper transverse or lower transverse portion in the front and rear direction of the vehicle chassis frame. The upper transverse portion or the lower transverse portion may be disposed between the portions that are disposed in front of the right side portion and the left side portion and the portions that are disposed in the posterior part of the right side portion and the left side portion. Chassis frame configuration; integral or separate, upper end of leading edge when integral, configuration of upper and lower frame portions
[0182] In this modality, the chassis frame has the connecting support portion, the connecting element (the upper front and rear frame portions), the down frame (the upper and lower frame portions) and the lower frame ( the lower front and rear frame portions), and these constituent parts are connected together by welding. However, the chassis frame of the invention is not limited to modality. The chassis frame must have the link support portion, the upper front and rear frame portions, the upper and lower frame portions, and the lower front and rear frame portions. For example, the chassis frame can be formed entirely or partially by casting. Additionally, in the chassis frame, the upper front and rear frame portions and the upper and lower frame portions can be made up of a single element or they can be made up of separate elements.Acute Angle Magnitude: Steering Axis and Telescopic Operation
[0183] In this mode, an acute angle formed by the geometric axis of rotation AS of the steering axis and the up and down direction of the chassis frame coincides with an acute angle formed by the direction in which the right damper and the left damper extend in or contract and the up and down direction of the chassis frame. However, the invention is not limited to the modality. For example, the acute angle formed by the rotation axis AS of the steering axis and the up and down direction of the chassis frame may be smaller or larger than the acute angle formed by the direction in which the right shock absorber and the shock absorber left extends in or contracts and the up and down steering of the chassis frame. Steering axle and shock absorbers
[0184] In addition, in mode, the axis of rotation of the steering axis and the direction in which the right damper and the left damper extend or contract coincide with each other. However, the invention is not limited to the modality. In a side view of the vehicle leaning in the vertical state, the axis of rotation of the steering axle and the direction in which the right damper and the left damper extend in or contract can be separated from each other in the front and rear direction.
