Problems to be solved by the invention
Since the armrest is held by an occupant (specifically, a fellow passenger) of the saddle type vehicle, the armrest receives a large load. Thus, it is required to firmly support the handrail. In order to firmly support the armrest, it is desirable that the right bracket support the armrest at a position close to the right seat frame, and that the left bracket support the armrest at a position close to the left seat frame.
In the case where the position of the right bracket supporting armrest is close to the right seat frame, the position of the right bracket supporting the right cover is liable to become low. Thus, the position of the right cover is easily lowered. When the position of the left bracket support armrest is close to the left seat frame, the position of the left bracket support left cover tends to become low. Thus, the position of the left cover is likely to become low.
The saddle-ride type vehicle includes a receiving member disposed on the left side of the right cover and on the right side of the left cover. The saddle-ride type vehicle further includes a seat disposed above the housing member and provided to be rotatable. When the position of the right cover and the position of the left cover are low, it is difficult to appropriately secure the capacity of the storage member. For example, the length of the storage member in the vehicle vertical direction may be reduced, and the capacity of the storage member may be reduced. Therefore, in order to appropriately secure the capacity of the storage member, it is desirable to dispose the right cover and the left cover at high positions. In order to arrange the right cover and the left cover at high positions, it is desirable that the right bracket support the right cover at a high position and the left bracket support the left cover at a high position.
However, when the right bracket supports the right cover at a high position, the right bracket easily supports the armrest at a high position. That is, when the right bracket supports the right cover at a high position, it is difficult for the right bracket to support the armrest at a position close to the right seat frame. When the position at which the left bracket supports the left cover is high, the position at which the left bracket supports the armrest tends to be high. That is, when the left bracket supports the left cover at a high position, it is difficult for the left bracket to support the armrest at a position close to the left seat frame.
As described above, it is difficult to satisfy both of the firm support of the armrest and the appropriate securing of the capacity of the storage member.
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a saddle-ride type vehicle capable of firmly supporting an armrest and appropriately ensuring the capacity of a storage member.
Means for solving the problems
The inventors of the present application have studied to lengthen the seat in the vehicle vertical direction. Here, the seat includes a seat portion, a right wall portion, and a left wall portion. The right wall portion extends downward from the right edge of the seating portion. The left wall portion extends downward from a left edge of the seating portion. The inventors of the present application have studied to lengthen the right wall portion and the left wall portion of the seat in the vehicle vertical direction.
When the right wall portion of the seat is long in the vehicle vertical direction, even if the right cover is low, the gap between the right wall portion of the seat and the right cover can be prevented from becoming large. When the left wall portion of the seat is long in the vehicle vertical direction, even if the left cover is low, the gap between the left wall portion of the seat and the left cover can be prevented from increasing. Further, in the case where the right wall portion and the left wall portion of the seat are long in the vehicle vertical direction, the seating portion of the seat can be disposed at a relatively high position even if the position of the right cover and the position of the left cover are low. Therefore, the length of the storage member in the vehicle vertical direction can be easily made large. In this way, by making the right wall portion and the left wall portion of the seat longer in the vehicle vertical direction, the capacity of the housing member can be appropriately secured while suppressing an increase in the clearance between the seat and the right cover and the clearance between the seat and the left cover.
However, the inventors of the present application have found that a new problem occurs when the right wall portion and the left wall portion of the seat are lengthened in the vehicle vertical direction. When the right wall portion and the left wall portion of the seat are lengthened in the vehicle vertical direction, the seat is increased in size and weight. In the case of a large and heavy seat, the rider cannot easily rotate the seat. This is a new problem.
Then, the inventors of the present application have further studied a saddle-ride type vehicle capable of firmly supporting an armrest, appropriately securing the capacity of a housing member, and appropriately supporting a right cover and a left cover.
To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following configuration.

Thus, the left bracket supports the armrest at a position close to the left seat frame. Thus, the left bracket can firmly support the armrest.
The 2 nd fastening part of the armrest fastens and fastens the right cover. Thus, the armrest supports the right cover. The 2 nd fastening portion of the armrest is disposed at a position overlapping the seat in a plan view of the vehicle. Therefore, the 2 nd fastening portion of the armrest can be appropriately protected.
The 4 th fastening part of the armrest fastens and connects the left cover. Thus, the armrest supports the left cover. The 4 th fastening portion of the armrest is disposed at a position overlapping the seat in a plan view of the vehicle. Therefore, the 4 th fastening portion of the armrest can be appropriately protected.
The upper surface of the 2 nd fastening part of the armrest contacts the right cover. The upper surface of the 2 nd fastening part of the armrest is arranged above the upper surface of the 1 st fastening part of the armrest. Therefore, the armrest supports the right cover at a position higher than the upper surface of the 1 st fastening portion. This allows the right cover to be disposed at a high position. The upper surface of the 4 th fastening part of the armrest contacts the left cover. The upper surface of the 4 th fastening part of the armrest is arranged above the upper surface of the 3 rd fastening part of the armrest. Therefore, the armrest supports the left cover at a position higher than the upper surface of the 3 rd fastening part. This enables the left cover to be disposed at a high position. Since the right cover and the left cover can be disposed at high positions in this way, the capacity of the storage member can be appropriately secured.
The right receiving portion of the armrest is disposed at a position overlapping the right cover in a plan view of the vehicle. The upper surface of the right receiving portion of the armrest is arranged above the upper surface of the 1 st fastening portion.

Therefore, the left receiving portion of the armrest can appropriately assist the 4 th fastening portion of the armrest to support the left cover. Thus, the armrest can appropriately support the left cover.
The distance in the vehicle vertical direction between the upper surface of the 2 nd fastening connection portion and the upper surface of the right receiving portion is smaller than the distance in the vehicle vertical direction between the upper edge of the right seat frame and the upper surface of the right bracket. Thus, the height position of the upper surface of the right receiving portion is close to the height position of the upper surface of the 2 nd fastening portion. Therefore, the right receiving portion can more appropriately assist the 2 nd fastening portion of the armrest to support the right cover. Thus, the armrest can support the right cover more appropriately.
The distance in the vehicle vertical direction between the upper surface of the 4 th fastening connection portion and the upper surface of the left receiving portion is smaller than the distance in the vehicle vertical direction between the upper edge of the left seat frame and the upper surface of the left bracket. Thus, the height position of the upper surface of the left receiving portion is close to the height position of the upper surface of the 4 th fastening portion. Therefore, the left receiving portion can more appropriately assist the 4 th fastening portion of the armrest to support the left cover. This enables the armrest to more appropriately support the left cover.
As described above, according to the saddle-ride type vehicle, the armrest can be firmly supported, and the capacity of the storage member can be ensured. Further, according to the saddle-ride type vehicle, the right cover and the left cover can be appropriately supported.
In the saddle-ride type vehicle described above, preferably,

a distance in a vehicle vertical direction between the upper surface of the 4 th fastening coupling portion and the upper surface of the left receiving portion is smaller than a distance in the vehicle vertical direction between the lower surface of the 3 rd fastening coupling portion and the upper surface of the 3 rd fastening coupling portion.
The difference between the height position of the upper surface of the 2 nd fastening part and the height position of the upper surface of the right receiving part is smaller than the difference between the height position of the lower surface of the 1 st fastening part and the height position of the upper surface of the 1 st fastening part. Thus, the height position of the upper surface of the right receiving portion is close to the height position of the upper surface of the 2 nd fastening portion. Therefore, the right receiving portion can more appropriately assist the 2 nd fastening portion of the armrest to support the right cover. Thus, the armrest can appropriately support the right cover. The difference between the height position of the upper surface of the 4 th fastening part and the height position of the upper surface of the left receiving part is smaller than the difference between the height position of the lower surface of the 3 rd fastening part and the height position of the upper surface of the 3 rd fastening part. Thus, the height position of the upper surface of the left receiving portion is close to the height position of the upper surface of the 4 th fastening portion. Therefore, the left receiving portion can more appropriately assist the 4 th fastening portion of the armrest to support the left cover. Thus, the armrest can appropriately support the left cover.
In the saddle-ride type vehicle described above, preferably,
the upper surface of the right receiving portion is disposed at a height position substantially equal to the height position of the upper surface of the 2 nd fastening portion,
the upper surface of the left receiving portion is disposed at substantially the same height as the upper surface of the 4 th fastening portion.
The height position of the upper surface of the right receiving portion is substantially the same as the height position of the upper surface of the 2 nd fastening portion. Therefore, the right receiving portion can more appropriately assist the 2 nd fastening portion of the armrest to support the right cover. Thus, the armrest can appropriately support the right cover. The height position of the upper surface of the left receiving portion is substantially the same as the height position of the upper surface of the 4 th fastening portion. Therefore, the left receiving portion can more appropriately assist the 4 th fastening portion of the armrest to support the left cover. Thus, the armrest can appropriately support the left cover.
In the saddle-ride type vehicle described above, preferably,
the vehicle seat is provided with:
a seating portion;
a right wall portion extending downward from a right edge of the seating portion; and
a left wall portion extending downward from a left edge of the seating portion,

When the upper surface of the right receiving portion is disposed at a position in contact with the right cover, the right receiving portion is in contact with the right cover in a state where the right cover is not flexed. Therefore, the right receiving portion can suppress the deflection of the right cover. When the upper surface of the right receiving portion is disposed at a position sufficiently close to the right cover, the right receiving portion and the right cover do not contact each other in a state where the right cover is not flexed, and the right receiving portion and the right cover can contact each other in a state where the right cover is flexed. Therefore, the right receiving portion can suppress the deflection of the right cover from becoming excessively large. In this way, the right socket can reduce the amount of deflection of the right cover, regardless of whether the upper surface of the right socket is disposed at a position in contact with the right cover or the upper surface of the right socket is disposed at a position sufficiently close to the right cover. Thus, the right receiving portion can more appropriately assist the 2 nd fastening portion of the armrest to support the right cover. Similarly, the left receiving portion can reduce the amount of deflection of the left cover, regardless of whether the upper surface of the left receiving portion is disposed at a position in contact with the left cover or the upper surface of the left receiving portion is disposed at a position sufficiently close to the left cover. Thus, the left receiving portion can more appropriately assist the 4 th fastening portion of the armrest to support the left cover.

Fig. 10 is a perspective view of the 3 rd fastening portion 44L, the 4 th fastening portion 51L, the left receiving portion 57L, and the left cover 31L. The left receiving portion 57L is disposed below the left cover 31L. The upper surface 58L of the left receiving portion 57L is disposed below the left cover 31L. The upper surface 58L of the left receiving portion 57L is disposed at a position sufficiently close to the left cover 31L. The upper surface 58L of the left receiving portion 57L is disposed at a position sufficiently close to the left cover 31L to be in contact with the left cover 31L when the left cover 31L is flexed. Therefore, in a state where the left cover 31L is not flexed, the left receiving portion 57L does not contact the left cover 31L. In a state where the left cover 31L is not flexed, a sufficiently small gap is formed between the left cover 31L and the upper surface 58L of the left receiving portion 57L.
For example, when the left cover 31L is pressed from the outside, the left cover 31L flexes. When the downward deflection amount of the left cover 31L increases, a portion of the left cover 31L located above the left receiving portion 57L may move downward. When the downward deflection amount of the left cover 31L increases, a portion of the left cover 31L located above the left socket 57L approaches the left socket 57L. When the downward deflection amount of the left cover 31L increases to a predetermined value, the left cover 31L comes into contact with the upper surface 58L of the left socket 57L. In this way, in the state where the left cover 31L is flexed, the upper surface 58L of the left receiving portion 57L contacts the left cover 31L. The left socket 57L restricts the amount of deflection of the left cover 31L from exceeding a predetermined value in a state where the upper surface 58L of the left socket 57L is in contact with the left cover 31L. Thus, the left receiving portion 57L reduces the amount of deflection of the left cover 31L to a predetermined value or less. Further, the left socket 57L allows the deflection of the left cover 31L when the amount of downward deflection of the left cover 31L is smaller than a predetermined value.
The left cover 31L includes a left rib 32 Lb. The left rib 32Lb is disposed above the left receiving portion 57L. The left rib 32Lb of the left cover 31L has a plate shape.

7. Effects of the embodiments
The right bracket 71R is mounted to the right seat frame 68R. The 1 st fastening portion 44R of the armrest 41 is fastened to the right bracket 71R. Thereby, the armrest 41 is supported by the right bracket 71R. The 1 st fastening portion 44R of the armrest 41 is disposed at a position overlapping the seat 21 in a plan view of the vehicle. Therefore, the 1 st fastening portion 44R of the armrest 41 can be appropriately protected. For example, the 1 st fastening portion 44R of the armrest 41 can be appropriately prevented from being damaged. For example, the 1 st fastening portion 44R can be appropriately prevented from falling off from the right bracket 71R. Further, the 1 st fastening portion 44R of the armrest 41 can be disposed at a position that is difficult to touch. Therefore, it is difficult to bring the tool into contact with the 1 st fastening portion 44R (more specifically, the 1 st coupling members 81Ra and 81Rb) of the armrest 41. This makes it difficult to detach the 1 st fastening portion 44R from the right bracket 71R.
The left bracket 71L is mounted to the left seat frame 68L. The 3 rd fastening portion 44L of the armrest 41 is fastened to the left bracket 71L. Thereby, the armrest 41 is supported by the left bracket 71L. The 3 rd fastening portion 44L of the armrest 41 is disposed at a position overlapping the seat 21 in a plan view of the vehicle. Therefore, the 3 rd fastening portion 44L of the armrest 41 can be appropriately protected. Further, the 3 rd fastening portion 44L of the armrest 41 can be disposed at a position that is difficult to touch.
The right bracket 71R extends upward from the right seat frame 68R. The distance in the vertical direction Z between the upper edge of the right seat frame 68R and the upper surface 72R of the right bracket 71R is smaller than the outer diameter of the right seat frame 68R. Thus, the right bracket 71R supports the armrest 41 at a position close to the right seat frame 68R. Thus, the right bracket 71R can firmly support the armrest 41.
The left bracket 71L extends upward from the left seat frame 68L. A distance D1 in the vertical direction Z between the upper edge 68Lb of the left seat frame 68L and the upper surface 72L of the left bracket 71L is smaller than the outer diameter G of the left seat frame 68L. Thus, the left bracket 71L supports the armrest 41 at a position close to the left seat frame 68L. Thereby, the left bracket 71L can firmly support the armrest 41.
The 2 nd fastening portion 51R of the armrest 41 fastens and fastens the right cover 31R. Thereby, the armrest 41 supports the right cover 31R. The 2 nd fastening portion 51R of the armrest 41 is disposed at a position overlapping the seat 21 in a plan view of the vehicle. Therefore, the 2 nd fastening connection portion 51R of the armrest 41 can be appropriately protected. For example, the 2 nd fastening portion 51R of the armrest 41 can be appropriately prevented from being damaged. For example, the right cover 31R can be appropriately prevented from falling off from the 2 nd fastening portion 51R. Further, the 2 nd fastening connection portion 51R of the armrest 41 can be disposed at a position that is difficult to touch. Therefore, it is difficult to bring the tool into contact with the 2 nd fastening portion 51R (specifically, the 2 nd coupling member) of the armrest 41. This makes it difficult to detach the right cover 31R from the 2 nd fastening portion 51R.

The right bracket 71R is disposed below the upper edge of the right cover 31R when the vehicle is viewed from the side. Thus, the right bracket 71R is disposed at a lower position. Thus, the right bracket 71R supports the armrest 41 at a lower position. This enables the right bracket 71R to more firmly support the armrest 41.
The left bracket 71L is disposed below the upper edge 31La of the left cover 31L when the vehicle is viewed from the side. Thus, the left bracket 71L is disposed at a lower position. Thus, the left bracket 71L supports the armrest 41 at a lower position. This enables the left bracket 71L to support the armrest 41 more firmly.
At least a part of the right rib of the right cover 31R is disposed at a position overlapping the upper surface of the right receiving portion 57R in a vehicle plan view. Therefore, the portion of the right cover 31R that overlaps the upper surface of the right receiving portion 57R in a vehicle plan view has relatively high rigidity. Therefore, the right receiving portion 57R can more appropriately assist the armrest 41 in supporting the right cover 31R. This enables the armrest 41 to more appropriately support the right cover 31R.
At least a part of the left rib 32Lb of the left cover 31L is disposed at a position overlapping the upper surface 58L of the left receiving portion 57L in a vehicle plan view. Therefore, the portion of the left cover 31L that overlaps the upper surface 58L of the left socket 57L in the vehicle plan view has relatively high rigidity. Therefore, the left receiving portion 57L can more appropriately assist the armrest 41 in supporting the left cover 31L. This enables the armrest 41 to more appropriately support the left cover 31L.
The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and can be modified as described below.
(1) In the above-described embodiment, the upper surface of the right receiving portion 57R is disposed at a position sufficiently close to the right cover 31R. However, it is not limited thereto. The upper surface of the right receiving portion 57R may be disposed in contact with the right cover 31R. In the case of the present modified embodiment, the right receiving portion 57R is in contact with the right cover 31R in a state where the right cover 31R is not flexed. That is, in the case of the present modified embodiment, the right cover 31R is placed on the right receiving portion 57R in a state where the right cover 31R is not flexed. Therefore, the right receiving portion 57R suppresses flexure of the right cover 31R. That is, the right receiving portion 57R can reduce the amount of deflection of the right cover 31R. Thus, the right receiving portion 57R can appropriately assist the 2 nd fastening portion 51R of the armrest 41 in supporting the right cover 31R. Therefore, the armrest 41 can appropriately support the right cover 31R.
In the above-described embodiment, the upper surface 58L of the left receiving portion 57L is disposed at a position sufficiently close to the right cover 31R. However, it is not limited thereto. The upper surface 58L of the left receiving portion 57L may be disposed in contact with the left cover 31L. In the case of the present modified embodiment, the left socket 57L is in contact with the left cover 31L in a state where the left cover 31L is not flexed. Therefore, the left receiving portion 57L can reduce the amount of deflection of the left cover 31L. Thus, the left receiving portion 57L can appropriately assist the 4 th fastening portion 51L of the armrest 41 in supporting the left cover 31L. This allows the armrest 41 to appropriately support the left cover 31L.
(2) In the above-described embodiment, the right edge of the right receiving portion 57R corresponds to the right edge of the upper surface of the right receiving portion 57R.
