Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a battery mounting device for a scooter.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A scooter uses a battery as a power source. Generally, a battery has a rectangular box shape, is not flexible in shape, and uses lead or the like, and is heavy in comparison to its size. Therefore, in a small vehicle body such as a scooter, the place where the battery is mounted is restricted, and the mounting position is limited to the lower side of the seat, the inside of the front cover, the lower side of the footboard, and the like.

[0003]

When a battery holder having a battery inserted therein is attached to the lower side of the footboard, there is a problem that the battery holder vibrates due to the weight of the battery due to vibration during operation and vibrates.

In view of such a point, the present invention provides a battery holder on the lower side of the footboard. The battery holder can be securely fastened to the frame at three points to prevent the battery holder from vibrating and to the footboard. It is an object of the present invention to obtain a battery mounting device for a scooter that can prevent transmitted vibration.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a battery mounting device for a scooter according to the present invention comprises:
A box-shaped battery holder for covering the lid is provided in the opening provided on the side surface, and the bosses protruding from the front and rear of the battery holder are fastened to the stays welded to the frame and projecting to the inner end of the battery holder. The spacer is inserted by stacking the boss on the stay projecting upward on the frame, and the boss provided on the footboard is inserted into the spacer so that the boss is fastened together with the footboard.

[0006]

Since the battery holder is fastened to the front and rear and the inner side at three points, it is possible to prevent the battery holder from vibrating due to vibration during driving. Since the inner end of the battery holder is securely fastened together with the footboard by keeping a space with a spacer, it is possible to prevent vibration transmitted to the footboard. The lid of the battery can be removed by removing the footboard side cover, and the battery can be pulled out and attached.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. The frame 1 of the scooter has a main pipe 3 extending rearward and downward from a head pipe 2 at the front end, and left and right rear pipes 4 are welded to the rear end of the main pipe 3. And in the main pipe 3,
A foot board plate 6 for fastening the foot board 5 is projected and welded on both sides.

On the rear portion of the main pipe 3 of the frame 1 and the footboard plate 6, stays 7 and 8 are projected and welded. Further, the stay 9 is welded to the main pipe 3 by protruding upward. The battery holder 11 into which the battery 10 is inserted is molded in a box shape using a synthetic resin or the like, and has an opening 12 provided on the outside.
2 is adapted to cover and fasten the lid 13. The battery holder 11 has bosses 14 and 15 projecting forward and backward, and a boss 16 projecting at an inner end.

In the battery holder 11, the boss 14 is fitted to the stay 8 and the boss 15 is fitted to the stay 7, and the bolts are fastened by bolts. Further, the boss 16 is fitted into the screw 17 protruding from the stay 9, and the spacer 18 is inserted into the screw 17. Then, the central boss 19 of the footboard 5 is fitted onto the upper portion of the spacer 18, and the nut 20 is screwed into the screw 17 to be tightened. A nut may be welded to the stay 9 instead of the screw 17, and a bolt may be inserted from the footboard 5 side to tighten the screw. However, it is better to weld the screw 17 to the stay 9 in advance. It is convenient when the screws 17 are positioned and assembled.

Since the battery holder 11 accommodating the battery 10 is fastened at the three positions of the bosses 14, 15, and 16, it is possible to prevent vibration. Since the boss 16 is fastened together with the footboard 5 with the spacer 18 interposed therebetween, the vibration of the footboard 5 can be prevented. Footboard side covers 21 are provided on the lower sides of the footboard 5 on both sides.
The footboard side cover 21 and the lid 13 are removed to attach the battery 10
Can be attached and detached.

[0011]

As described above, according to the present invention, as described above, the bosses provided at the front and rear and the inner side of the battery holder can be fastened to the frame side. Since it is fastened to the frame side together with the footboard by sandwiching the spacer, it is possible to prevent the battery holder from swinging and also to prevent the vibration from being transmitted to the footboard. The battery can be attached and detached without removing the footboard by removing the footboard side cover and the lid.
