Specific features and advantages of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The detailed description of the functions and configurations of the present invention will be omitted if it is determined that the gist of the present invention may be unnecessarily blurred.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a motorcycle safety device, and more particularly, to a motorcycle safety device that protects an occupant against shock, slip, jumping,

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram showing the overall configuration of a motorcycle safety device according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a configuration view showing a state where a backrest of a motorcycle safety device according to the present invention is folded and a safety bar is raised, FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing a state in which a leg protecting apparatus of a motorcycle safety apparatus according to the present invention operates. FIG.

1, a motorcycle safety device according to the present invention includes a seat 100 on which a passenger can sit for driving, a back 200 located behind the seat 100 on which a passenger can lean, A safety restraint device 300 coupled to the backrest 200 to prevent an occupant from bouncing out due to an external impact, and a motorcycle 300 for protecting the legs of the occupant from being exposed to the outside, And a leg protector 400 attached to both sides. Herein, the safety restraining device 300 collectively refers to the safety bar 310 and the seat belt 320, and is characterized in that at least one of the safety bar 310 and the seat belt 320 can be selected and used.

As shown in FIG. 1, a seat belt 320 is installed on both sides of the backrest 200, and binding members 330 are installed on both sides of the seat 100. When the seat belt 320 is mounted so as to cross the body in an X-shaped form, the occupant can have an effect of preventing an impact from being dispersed and being repelled from the motorcycle in the event of an accident because the contact area with the body is widened.

In another method, in order to easily release the seat belt 320, a seat belt 320 is installed on both sides of the seat 100 and the backrest 200, and a binding hole 330 is formed at the center of the X- The belt may be connected to the center and disassembled by one-touch operation.

The safety bar 310 located at the end of the backrest 200 is freely rotatable so that the safety bar 310 is pushed up toward the backrest 200 to enable easy boarding when the passenger is boarded, The upper safety bar 310 is lowered to protect the occupant.

The safety bar 310 uses a ratchet for the rotation shaft of the safety bar 310 so as to mitigate the impact when an accident occurs and secure the passenger so that the passenger is not thrown from the motorcycle.

The ratchet rotates in a certain direction with a toothed wheel that transmits rotation only in one direction due to the action of the detent and does not move in the opposite direction, but when the detent tries to rotate in the opposite direction, the detent is caught in the ratchet.

With this principle, in order to raise the safety bar 310, the detent formed on the ratchet must be released, and when the safety bar 310 is lowered, the safety bar 310 can be lowered without any operation. The safety bar 310 selects a limit that can be lowered to the maximum, and installs a stopper so that it can no longer descend. When an accident occurs during the operation of the motorcycle, the passenger is prevented from bouncing off the motorcycle because the safety bar 310 is fixed by the ratchet, so that the safety bar 310 is pressed against the body of the passenger Can also be prevented by using a stopper.

2, in the motorcycle safety device according to the present invention, when the backrest 200 is folded, the cushion portion of the backrest 200 is formed as the motorcycle rear seat 100 so that a person can further ride on the backrest seat 200, The safety bar 310 can be held between the safety bars 310 formed on both sides of the backrest 200 to hold the safety bar 310 by hand.

Conventional motorcycles have a relatively short distance due to the weight of the motorcycle while the driver holds the handle 150 in case of an accident, while the rear occupant relies on the driver's body and is located at a long distance from the front of the motorcycle, However, the safety bar 310 has an effect of reducing the emergency distance.

The seat 100 and the backrest 200 may be attached to one side of the seat 100 and the backrest 200 by adjusting the positions of the seat belt 320 and the binding hole 330 described in FIG. The seat belt 320 can be worn across the body of the driver and the passenger.

The backrest 200 has a rotatable shaft coupled to the seat 100 on one side thereof and uses the same ratchet as the safety bar 310. When the backrest 200 is rotated, the detent can be easily rotated and the detent can be fixed to the backrest 200 so that the driver can not move on his or her back. When the detent is removed, the backrest 200 can be folded and the fixing clip 210 on the back surface of the backrest 200 is coupled with the binding port 330 formed on the seat 100, ) Can not be rotated.

As shown in FIG. 3, in a motorcycle safety device according to the present invention, a heat ray is installed inside at least one of the backrest 200, the seat 100, and the safety restraint device 300, It is possible to prevent hypothermia from occurring.

Hypothermia refers to a state in which the central body temperature (deep body temperature) has fallen below 35 ° C, and is caused when the body's heat production is reduced or heat loss is increased, or when the two occur in combination. Hypothermia occurs suddenly This can happen gradually. If the body temperature is lower than normal, the blood circulation, respiration, and the function of the nervous system become slow, so that an accident can occur.

When the motorcycle is operated, the body of the passenger is exposed to the outside air and convective heat transfer occurs. The passenger's body absorbs heat when the temperature of the outside air is higher than the body temperature, and releases heat when the outside temperature is lower than the body temperature . In summer, there is no big problem because the body temperature and temperature difference is not big even though the temperature of outside air is high. However, in winter, the temperature falls below freezing point, .

In order to prevent hypothermia, a heat ray is installed inside the portion where the occupant's body is closely contacted, such as the seat 100, the backrest 200, and the safety restraint device 300, so that even if the body heat is released due to the convective heat transfer, And the generated heat is supplied to the passenger.

Alternatively, in the case of the seat 100, heat may be transmitted to a passenger using a heat source generated in the driving unit 500 instead of the heat line. When the exhaust gas is discharged to the outside through the heat exchanger located inside the seat 100, the high-temperature heat of the exhaust gas is dissipated through the heat exchanger The seat 100 may be heated to be delivered to the occupant.

Also, the backrest 200 or the seat 100 may have a massage device incorporated therein.

When the motorcycle is operated for a long time, the buttocks and the thighs come into close contact with the seat (100), and the muscles are clogged or the circulation of blood is not smoothly performed. It becomes.

In the massage device, the motor with the eccentric shaft is fixed on the circular plate, the massage ball is connected to each motor, and the circular plate is attached to the electric cylinder, so that the circular plate can be moved forward and backward by the electric cylinder. When the passenger operates the massaging device, the electric cylinder advances the circular plate so that the massage ball is brought into close contact with the body of the passenger, and the motor having the eccentric shaft vibrates to massage the passenger. When massage is finished, the circular plate is moved backward by the electric cylinder so that the massage device protrudes from the backrest 200 or the seat 100 and is not inconvenienced.

Such a massage device physically stimulates the part of the passengers, such as the buttocks, the thighs, and the back, to help the blood circulation, thereby preventing drowsiness caused by fatigue. At this time, the massage device may be manually operated by the selection of the occupant, or may be set by the occupant so that the timer is built in the massage device and periodically operated automatically according to the engine operating time of the motorcycle.

As shown in FIG. 4, the leg protecting device 400 of the motorcycle safety device according to the present invention is raised so that the leg is not exposed to the outside during running, and when the leg protecting device 400 is stopped or slowed down, Can be automatically adjusted.

The leg protector 400 is constituted by a first link 410, a second link 420 and a third link 430 formed on both sides of the motorcycle and one side of the first link 410 is connected to a frame The second link 420 is connected to the first link 410 and the third link 430 so that the first link 410 and the third link 430 are rotatable, And is coupled with the other side of the first link 410 and the third link 430 to be connected.

3, the leg protector 400 is mounted on a motorcycle frame (not shown) so that the occupant can not take a foot on the leg protector 400 when boarding the vehicle, 600, respectively.

When the motorcycle starts to travel and rises above a predetermined speed, the driving unit 500 connected to the third link 430 operates to rotate the third link 430 such that the leg protecting apparatus 400 is shaped as shown in FIG. 4 And then stops and stops so that the leg protecting apparatus 400 can protect the leg.

The rotation of the driving unit 500 coupled to the third link 430 can be controlled using a servo motor, a brake motor, an inverter, or the like.

The leg protector 400 may include a tilt sensor for protecting the passenger's leg when the motorcycle is slid to the side. The tilt sensor may be a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor, or the like. The gyro sensor senses the rotational inertia and provides an angle of rotation of the object within a unit time based on the uniaxial axis. The acceleration sensor can sense the acceleration of the moving object or the direction of the impact applied to the acceleration sensor. In the absence of an external impact, the direction of gravity is always detected and can be used as a tilt sensor.

If the tilt sensor is used, even if the motorcycle is slid to the side and the speed of the motorcycle is reduced, the driving unit 500 does not rotate the third link 430 due to a signal generated by the tilt sensor, .

An elastic body may be added to the first link 410 and the third link 430 coupled to the frame 600 and the driving unit 500 and the elastic body may be attached to the leg protecting apparatus 400 from the motorcycle frame 600 When the force is externally or inwardly applied, the force is dispersed by the elastic force to prevent the link from being broken.

Since the motorcycle is small, the driver of the vehicle can not recognize the motorcycle, and an accident may occur. In this case, a voice display may be installed on the motorcycle so that the driver of the vehicle can recognize that the motorcycle is nearby. The voice display device is associated with the driving unit 500, and when a motorcycle is reduced to a specified speed or less, the voice display device receives a signal and automatically outputs a warning voice to inform a driver or a person around the motorcycle that the motorcycle is nearby. The voice display will not operate above the specified speed and will operate periodically only when the motorcycle moves below the specified speed.

Also, the windshield 700 may be installed on the handle 150 of the motorcycle, and the windshield 700 is configured in an antenna type so that the occupant can adjust the length. The occupant can raise the windshield 700 to prevent winds on low temperatures, and windshield 700 on high temperatures to wind the windshields.

As described above, according to the motorcycle safety device according to the present invention, the safety restraint device prevents the passenger from bouncing even when an external shock occurs, thereby preventing a secondary accident and supplying heat through the hot wire even in a low season of outside temperature. Hypothermia can be prevented, and when the motorcycle is slid to the side, the legs of the occupant can be protected from the floor.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is clearly understood that the same is by way of illustration and example only and is not to be taken as a limitation of the scope of the present invention. Or modify it. The scope of the invention should, therefore, be construed in light of the claims set forth to cover many of such variations.
