Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a mounting structure for a sub-starter switch.

[Conventional technology]

Generally, a cab-over type truck is equipped with a cab tilting device for tilting the cab for inspection of the engine. However, when the cab is tilted, the driver cannot get into the cab and start the engine.Therefore, conventionally, a sub starter switch that can start the engine with the cab tilted is attached to the engine. There is.

FIG. 3 shows a mounting structure of such a sub-starter switch. In the drawing, reference numeral 1 is a mounting bracket of the sub-starter switch 3, and the mounting bracket 1 is mounted on the engine 5 via a flange 1a provided at the lower end. The sub-starter switch 3 is mounted on the back side of the mounting bracket 1 by being bolted to the upper part and projecting the switch button 3a to the front side as shown in FIG. Further, the upper side of the mounting bracket 1 is bent into a substantially L shape, and the tip of the bent portion 1 is protected so that an operator does not touch the switch button 3a of the sub starter switch 3 by mistake. It has a structure in which a small protection piece 1b covering the switch button 3a is bent.

Then, as shown in FIG. 4, the finger 5 is inserted into the insertion hole 7 formed in the protective small piece 1b and the switch button 3a is pushed to start the engine 5. In addition, in FIG. 3, reference numeral 11 is an intake manifold divided into left and right cylinders respectively, 13 is a caution plate attached to the front side of the mounting bracket 1, and reference numeral 15 is a mounting bolt for the mounting bracket 1. is there.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

However, in the conventional mounting structure as described above, when the sub-starter switch 3 is mounted on the engine 5, the mounting bracket 1 has to be bolted to the engine 5 separately, resulting in a large number of parts and poor workability. . In addition, because it is necessary to attach caution plate 13,
Since the mounting bracket 1 is large, there is a problem that a large mounting space for the mounting bracket must be secured in the engine room.

Incidentally, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 60-152561 discloses an engine starting device for ensuring safety during engine inspection work, but such a conventional example cannot solve the above-mentioned problems.

The present invention has been devised in view of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a sub-starter switch mounting structure in which a conventional mounting bracket for a sub-starter switch is eliminated.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to achieve such an object, a mounting structure of a sub-starter switch according to the present invention has a sub-starter switch mounting member installed between intake manifolds divided into a plurality of cylinders, and the sub-starter switch is mounted on the mounting member. It is attached.

[Action]

According to the present invention, in order to start the engine with the cab tilted, the engine is started by operating the sub-starter switch mounted on the mounting member installed between the intake manifolds.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

In the figure, reference numeral 17 is a mounting member for the sub-starter switch 3 which is cast integrally with the intake manifold 19, and as shown in FIG. 2, the mounting member 17 is formed in a substantially U-shaped cross section in order to have strength. Has been done.

Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 4, the intake manifold
11 are divided into multiple cylinders on the left and right respectively, and a gap A that should be called an extra space between both intake manifolds 11
Had been formed. In this embodiment, focusing on such a gap A,
By providing the mounting member 17 as described above in the gap A and mounting the sub starter switch 3 in the mounting member 17, the conventional mounting bracket 1 mounted on the upper part of the engine 5 is abolished. , A mounting member at the above-mentioned gap A portion when the intake manifold 19 is cast.
17 is also cast, and the sub-starter switch 3 is mounted using the mounting member 17.

Thus, the insertion hole 21 is formed on the front surface side 17a of the mounting member 17, and the insertion button 21 is inserted into the insertion hole 21 so that the switch button 3a of the sub-starter switch 3 can be pushed by the finger 11 from the front side. The switch button 3a is arranged and the sub-starter switch 3 is mounted inside the mounting member 17.

Since the present embodiment is configured in this way, the engine 5
In order to start the engine 5 by tilting the cab at the time of inspection, insert the finger 11 into the insertion hole 21 and press the switch button 3a as shown in FIG. Sometimes the engine 5 will start.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is not necessary to separately bolt the large mounting bracket 1 as shown in FIG. 3 to the engine 5, so that the number of parts is reduced and the workability is improved. Mounting bracket 1 in the engine compartment
It is no longer necessary to secure a large installation space for the engine, and the sub-starter switch 3 can be placed in the gap between the intake manifolds, which can be called a conventional extra space. Was decided.

In the above embodiment, the mounting member 17 is used as the intake manifold.
Although it is cast integrally with 19, the mounting member may be separately mounted to the intake manifold 19. Thus, even with such a structure, there is no need to secure a large installation space for the mounting bracket 1 in the engine room, so that there is an advantage that the space in the engine room can be effectively used.

[Effect of device]

As described above, in the mounting structure of the sub-starter switch according to the present invention, the mounting member of the sub-starter switch is installed between the intake manifolds divided into a plurality of cylinders, and the sub-starter switch is mounted to the mounting member. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is not necessary to secure a large installation space for the mounting bracket in the engine room as in the conventional case, and the sub space is provided in the gap portion between the intake manifolds, which is a conventional extra space. Since the starter switch could be arranged, the space in the engine room could be effectively used.
