Patent Description:
As disclosed in <CIT>, there has been known straddled vehicles in each of which lateral orientation of a headlight is adjustable.

A straddled vehicle disclosed in <CIT> includes a headlight and left and right stays supporting the headlight. Bolt insertion holes of circular holes are formed in left and right side portions of the headlight. Bolt insertion holes of long holes elongated in the front-rear direction are formed in the left and right stays. The headlight is fixed to the stays with bolts inserted in the bolt insertion holes of the stays and the bolt insertion holes of the headlight.

Since the bolt insertion holes of the stays are long holes, the left side portion of the headlight can be moved forward and rearward relative to the left stay and the right side portion of the headlight can be moved forward and rearward relative to the right stay before the left and right bolts are fastened. Lateral orientation of the headlight can be adjusted by adjusting the positions of the left side portion and the right side portion of the headlight in the front-rear direction. After the adjustment of the lateral orientation of the headlight, the left and right bolts are fastened, thereby fixing the orientation of the headlight.

In the straddled vehicle described above, however, after adjustment of orientation of the headlight, the left and right bolts have to be fastened carefully not to displace the orientation of the headlight. The work of adjusting the orientation of the headlight is relatively easy, but the work of fixing the orientation of the headlight is relatively troublesome. Additionally, document <CIT> discloses a straddled vehicle comprising: a headlight including a body including a light source, a first attachment portion located at one of leftward or rightward of the body, and a second attachment portion located another of leftward or rightward of the body;a first stay supporting the first attachment portion of the headlight;a second stay supporting the second attachment portion of the headlight;a first bolt extending in a left-right direction and fixing the first attachment portion of the headlight to the first stay; and a second bolt extending in the left-right direction and fixing the second attachment portion of the headlight to the second stay, wherein the first attachment portion of the headlight, the second attachment portion of the headlight, the first stay, and the second stay include a first bolt hole, a second bolt hole, a third bolt hole, and a fourth bolt hole, respectively, the first bolt is inserted in the first bolt hole and the third bolt hole,the second bolt is inserted in the second bolt hole and the fourth bolt hole, at least one of the second bolt hole and the fourth bolt hole is a first elastic hole surrounded by an elastic body.

Preferred embodiments of the present invention provide straddled vehicles each of which eases the work of adjusting lateral orientation (orientation in left and right directions) of a headlight and the work of fixing orientation of the headlight.

A straddled vehicle disclosed here includes: a headlight including a body including a light source, a first attachment portion located at one of leftward or rightward of the body, and a second attachment portion located another of leftward or rightward of the body; a first stay supporting the first attachment portion of the headlight; a second stay supporting the second attachment portion of the headlight; a first bolt extending in a left-right direction and fixing the first attachment portion of the headlight to the first stay; and a second bolt extending in the left-right direction and fixing the second attachment portion of the headlight to the second stay. The first attachment portion of the headlight, the second attachment portion of the headlight, the first stay, and the second stay include a first bolt hole, a second bolt hole, a third bolt hole, and a fourth bolt hole, respectively. The first bolt is inserted in the first bolt hole and the third bolt hole. The second bolt is inserted in the second bolt hole and the fourth bolt hole. At least one of the first bolt hole and the third bolt hole is a first long hole elongated in a front-rear direction. At least one of the second bolt hole and the fourth bolt hole is a first elastic hole surrounded by an elastic body.

In the straddled vehicle, at least one of the first bolt hole and the third bolt hole is the first long hole elongated in the front-rear direction. Thus, the first attachment portion of the headlight can be moved forward and rearward relative to the first stay with the first bolt inserted in the first bolt hole and the third bolt hole. At least one of the second bolt hole and the fourth bolt hole is the first elastic hole surrounded by the elastic body, and thus, is elastically deformable. Even after the second bolt has been fastened, the second bolt is movable forward and rearward inside the first elastic hole within the range where the first elastic hole is elastically deformable. Since the second bolt does not hinder forward and rearward movement of the first attachment portion of the headlight, lateral orientation of the headlight can be adjusted even after the second bolt has been fastened. After the orientation of the headlight has been adjusted, the first bolt is fastened, thereby fixing the orientation of the headlight. In the straddled vehicle, it is unnecessary to fasten both the first bolt and the second bolt after adjustment of the headlight. This eases the work of adjusting the lateral orientation of the headlight and the work of fixing the orientation of the headlight.

It is sufficient that the shape of the first elastic hole conforms to the shape of the second bolt. Although not particularly limited, the first elastic hole may be a circular hole.

The first long hole and the first elastic hole may be located at symmetric positions with respect to a vertical plane passing through a vehicle center line.

This configuration eases adjustment of lateral orientation of the headlight.

The second attachment portion of the headlight may include a fifth bolt hole located below the second bolt hole. The second stay may include a sixth bolt hole located below the fourth bolt hole. The straddled vehicle may include a third bolt inserted in the fifth bolt hole and the sixth bolt hole and extending in the left-right direction. At least one of the fifth bolt hole and the sixth bolt hole may be a second elastic hole surrounded by an elastic body.

With this configuration, since at least two upper and lower elastic holes are formed, the headlight can be supported with stability. In addition, it is possible to prevent the headlight from rotating upward and downward about the second bolt. Thus, upward or downward shift of orientation of the headlight can be avoided.

The straddled vehicle may include a head pipe located rearward of the headlight. The head pipe may extend forward and downward. The third bolt may be located forward of and below the second bolt.

This configuration stabilizes support of the headlight along the head pipe.

The first attachment portion of the headlight may include a seventh bolt hole located below the first bolt hole. The first stay may include an eighth bolt hole located below the third bolt hole. The straddled vehicle may include a fourth bolt inserted in the seventh bolt hole and the eighth bolt hole and extending in the left-right direction. At least one of the seventh bolt hole and the eighth bolt hole may be a second long hole elongated in the front-rear direction.

This configuration stabilizes support of the headlight.

The second attachment portion of the headlight or the second stay may include a metal member and a rubber gromet, the metal member including a hole, the rubber gromet being fitted in the hole of the member. The first elastic hole may be located in the gromet.

With this configuration, the advantages described above can be obtained with the easy and reasonable structure of fitting the rubber grommet in the hole of the metal member.

A rubber constituting the gromet may have a hardness of <NUM>° to <NUM>°.

The first elastic hole may have an inner diameter of <NUM> to <NUM>.

In other words, the bolt hole <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> are located at laterally symmetric positions, and the bolt hole <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> are located at laterally symmetric positions.

A material for each of the plate 21A and the plate 22A is not particularly limited, and in this preferred embodiment, is made of a metal. Each of the first through fourth bolts <NUM> through <NUM>, the collar <NUM>, and the collar 75B is also made of a metal.

In the motorcycle <NUM> according to this preferred embodiment, lateral orientation of the headlight <NUM> is adjustable. A method for adjusting orientation of the headlight <NUM> will now be described.

As described above, the second attachment portion <NUM> of the headlight <NUM> is fixed to the second stay <NUM> with the second bolt <NUM> and the third bolt <NUM>. The second bolt <NUM> is inserted in the bolt hole <NUM> of the second attachment portion <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> of the second stay <NUM> (see <FIG>). The third bolt <NUM> is inserted in the bolt hole <NUM> of the second attachment portion <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> of the second stay <NUM>. In this preferred embodiment, the bolt hole <NUM> is formed of the rubber gromet <NUM>, and the bolt hole <NUM> is formed of the rubber gromet 70B. After the second bolt <NUM> and the third bolt <NUM> have been fastened, the bolt hole <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> can be slightly deformed. Accordingly, the second attachment portion <NUM> is slightly displaceable leftward and rightward relative to the second stay <NUM>. The second attachment portion <NUM> is slightly rotatable about the vertical line with respect to the second stay <NUM>.

The first attachment portion <NUM> of the headlight <NUM> is fixed to the first stay <NUM> with the first bolt <NUM> and the fourth bolt <NUM>. The first bolt <NUM> is inserted in the bolt hole <NUM> of the first attachment portion <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> of the first stay <NUM> (see <FIG>). The fourth bolt <NUM> is inserted in the bolt hole <NUM> of the first attachment portion <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> of the first stay <NUM>. In this preferred embodiment, the bolt hole <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> are long holes elongated in the front-rear direction (see <FIG>). Before the first bolt <NUM> is fastened, the first bolt <NUM> can be moved forward and rearward inside the bolt hole <NUM>. Before the fourth bolt <NUM> is fastened, the fourth bolt <NUM> can be moved forward and rearward inside the bolt hole <NUM>. Accordingly, before the first bolt <NUM> and the fourth bolt <NUM> are fastened, the first attachment portion <NUM> can be moved forward and rearward relative to the first stay <NUM> with the first bolt <NUM> inserted in the bolt hole <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> and with the fourth bolt <NUM> inserted in the bolt hole <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM>.

As illustrated in <FIG>, the headlight <NUM> is supported by the first stay <NUM> located at the right of the vehicle center line CL and the second stay <NUM> located at the left of the vehicle center line CL. After the second bolt <NUM> and the third bolt <NUM> have been fastened and before the first bolt <NUM> inserted in the bolt hole <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> and the fourth bolt <NUM> inserted in the bolt hole <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> are fastened, when an operator moves the first attachment portion <NUM> forward or rearward relative to the first stay <NUM>, a force is applied to the second attachment portion <NUM> supported by the second stay <NUM>. This force deforms the gromet <NUM> and the gromet 70B. Accordingly, although the second attachment portion <NUM> is fixed to the second stay <NUM> with the second bolt <NUM> and the third bolt <NUM>, forward or rearward movement of the first attachment portion <NUM> is not inhibited. The operator can adjust lateral orientation of the headlight <NUM> to an intended direction by moving the first attachment portion <NUM> forward and rearward.

After adjusting the lateral orientation of the headlight <NUM>, the operator fastens the first bolt <NUM> and the fourth bolt <NUM>. Accordingly, the first attachment portion <NUM> is immovably fixed to the first stay <NUM>. As a result, the lateral orientation of the headlight <NUM> is fixed.

In the manner described above, in the motorcycle <NUM> according to this preferred embodiment, after the second bolt <NUM> and the third bolt <NUM> have been fastened, lateral orientation of the headlight <NUM> can be adjusted. In this preferred embodiment, all the first through fourth bolts <NUM> through <NUM> do not need to be fastened after adjustment of the orientation of the headlight <NUM>. The orientation of the headlight <NUM> can be fixed only by fastening the first bolt <NUM> and the fourth bolt <NUM> after adjusting the orientation of the headlight <NUM>. This configuration eases the work of adjusting lateral orientation of the headlight <NUM> and the work of fixing the orientation of the headlight <NUM>.

In this preferred embodiment, the bolt hole <NUM> of the first attachment portion <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> of the second attachment portion <NUM> are located at symmetric positions with respect to the vertical plane passing through the vehicle center line CL. The bolt hole <NUM> of the first attachment portion <NUM> and the bolt hole <NUM> of the second attachment portion <NUM> are located at symmetric positions with respect to the vertical plane passing through the vehicle center line CL. This configuration eases adjustment of lateral orientation of the headlight <NUM>.

In this preferred embodiment, the second attachment portion <NUM> of the headlight <NUM> includes the two upper and lower gromets <NUM> and 70B. The second attachment portion <NUM> has two upper and lower deformable bolt holes. Accordingly, the headlight <NUM> is supported with stability. In addition, it is possible to prevent or reduce upward or downward rotation of the headlight <NUM> about the bolt <NUM> before the first bolt <NUM> and the fourth bolt <NUM> are fastened. Accordingly, upward or downward shift of orientation of the headlight <NUM> is prevented or reduced.

In this preferred embodiment, the first attachment portion <NUM> of the headlight <NUM> has the bolt hole <NUM> as well as the bolt hole <NUM>. This configuration stabilizes support of the headlight <NUM>. In addition, it is possible to prevent or reduce upward or downward shift of orientation of the headlight <NUM> before the first bolt <NUM> and the fourth bolt <NUM> are fastened.

In this preferred embodiment, the head pipe <NUM> extends forward and downward. The third bolt <NUM> is located forward of and below the second bolt <NUM>. The fourth bolt <NUM> is located forward of and below the first bolt <NUM>. The second bolt <NUM> and the third bolt <NUM> are disposed along the head pipe <NUM>. The first bolt <NUM> and the fourth bolt <NUM> are disposed along the head pipe <NUM>. This configuration stabilizes support of the headlight <NUM> by the head pipe <NUM>.

In this preferred embodiment, the elastic holes (bolt holes <NUM> and <NUM>) of the second attachment portion <NUM> are formed of the rubber gromets <NUM> and 70B fitted in the holes 52A and 53A of the metal plate 22A. Elastic holes can be obtained by the simple and reasonable structure of fitting the gromets <NUM> and 70B in the holes 52A and 53A of the metal plate 22A. The advantages described above can be obtained with the relatively easy and reasonable structure.
