Oil filler mechanism for motorcycle

technical field

The invention relates to a fuel filler mechanism, in particular to a motorcycle fuel filler mechanism.

Background technique

Referring to Fig. 1, the oil filling port 11 of general motorcycle 1 is opened on a knee cover 12, and opens obliquely towards the rear, when the driver wants to refuel, he will open and close the oil cap 13 of the oil filling port 11, so that the oil Cover 13 flips and pops up towards the direction of the driver. If gasoline is attached to the end of the oil cover 13 towards the filler port 11, the aforementioned actions will easily throw gasoline to the driver and cause dirt and discomfort.

Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the driver usually places personal items on the foot pad 14 located between the driver and the knee cover 12 and below, or hangs on the hook 15 located at the rear of the knee cover 12 , and the disposition of the filler port 11 toward the rear makes the oil pipe 16 connected to the filler port 11 match the structure of the knee shield 12, and two turning points A are designed as shown in FIG. 2 . When refueling, the gasoline will be buffered by the turning points A and it will not be easy to quickly enter the oil, causing the gasoline that is accumulated instantaneously when refueling to be easily splashed backwards by the fuel port 11, so that the gasoline placed on the foot pad 14 or on the hook 15 Personal items are soiled. In addition, because oil droplets are often attached to the oil gun, and the oil gun is located between the knee shield 12 and the driver when filling oil, it is easy to drip down on the motorcycle 1 when the oil gun is inserted and pulled out. Cause trouble for drivers and refueling operators.
