Consequently, as shown in Fig. 2(a), the seat 23 can be opened as indicated by the arrow (2).
In this manner, in the mounting structure of a vehicle body cover and a seat lock for a scooter-type vehicle, since the seat catch 85 is stored in the cover hinge 33 as shown in Fig. 5, only the cover hinge 33 must be assembled as regards assembly in production lines and a trouble to assemble the seat catch 85 can be eliminated.
When removing the rear cover 34 (body unit 36), parts that have to be removed from the seat catch 85 do not exist, and thus one trouble can be saved, and when mounting the seat catch 85, another trouble can be saved.
Figs. 9(a), (b) are comparative drawings of the mounting structure of a vehicle body cover and a seat lock.
The drawing (a) is a copy of Fig. 11, showing a seat catch 103 and the rear cover 34 in the related art. When removing the rear over 34 (body unit 36), the procedure to connect and disconnect a cable 104 between the seat catch 103 and the rear cover 34 is incurred.
JJ-12104/cs The drawing (b) shows the mounting structure of a vehicle body cover and a seat lock according to the invention. In this case, the operation of the seat catch 85 is not incurred when removing the rear cover 34 (body unit 36).
Therefore, according to the embodiment of the invention, a trouble of assembling the seat catch 85 can be avoided.
As shown in Fig. 5, since the hinge bracket 73 of the cover hinge 33 is a member which swings about the pivot pipe 51 with the vehicle body cover (rear cover 34), is formed with the box section 76 having the front wall 81, the rear wall 82, the left wall 83, and the right wall 84, and stores the seat catch 85 in the box section 76, the front wall 81, the rear wall 82, the left wall 83, and the right wall 84 can protect the seat catch 85, and thus can prevent the seat catch 85 from being tampered.
Since the both ends 66, 66 of the rear grip 26 in Fig. 4 are fixed to the left and the right walls 83, 84 of the box section 76 in Fig. 5, other parts are given high priority for being attached to the front wall 81 and the rear wall 82 of the box section 76 in Fig. 5. Consequently, parts may be assembled o n the front and the rear walls 81, 82 and on the left and the right walls 83, 84 of the box section 76 in advance respectively, whereby the number of parts to be assembled in production lines may be reduced.
As shown in Fig. 4, since the ends 68, 68 of the sub frame 67, such as a frame for supporting the luggage box 22 is fixed to the rear grip 26, the sub frame 67 can be attached to the rear grip 26 in advance, and thus the number of parts may be reduced and hence the assembly time required for assembling to the vehicle body frame in production lines may be reduced.
The mode of the locking plate 93 and the latch 94 used for the seat catch 85 shown in Fig. 7 in the embodiment of the invention is shown by way of example only. A mechanism for connecting the seat catch 85 and the key cylinder 27 shown in Fig. 5 is arbitrary.
With the arrangement describe above, the invention brings out following advantages.
JJ-121o4/cs According to the present invention, in the mounting structure of a vehicle body cover and a seat lock in which the rear portion of the vehicle body cover is connected to the vehicle body frame with the cover hinge, the box section having the front, the rear, the left, and the right walls is formed on the cover hinge at the portion which swings together with the vehicle body cover, the seat catch is stored in the box section, the seat catch engages the seat hook extending from the lower surface of the rear portion of a seat, and the seat catch operating rod extending from the seat catch is supported by the rear wall. Therefore, only the cover hinge must be assembled as regards assembly in production lines and a trouble to assemble the seat catch can be eliminated.
In addition, parts such as the cable that have to be removed from the seat catch do not exist when removing the vehicle body cover, and thus one trouble can be saved.
Since the box section having the front, the rear, the left, and the right walls is formed on the cover hinge at the portion which swings together with the vehicle body cover, and the seat catch is stored in the box section, the seat catch can be protected from tampering.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, since both ends of a rear grip are secured to the left and the right walls of the box section, other parts are given high priority for being attached to the front wall and the rear wall of the box section. Consequently, parts may be assembled o n the front and the rear walls and on the left and the right walls of the box section in advance respectively, whereby the number of parts to be assembled in production lines may be reduced.
According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, since the ends of a sub frame, such as a frame for supporting a luggage box are fixed to the rear grip, the sub frame can be attached to the rear grip in advance, and thus the number of parts may be reduced and hence the assembly time required for assembling to the vehicle body frame in production lines may be reduced.
