BODY AND LIGHTING TOOL FOR VEHICLE
A lens body is provided which is disposed in front of a light source and configured to emit light forward from the light source along a forward/rearward reference axis extending in a forward/rearward direction of a vehicle, the lens body including an incidence part; a first reflecting surface configured to totally reflect light entering from the incidence part; a second reflecting surface configured to totally reflect at least some of the light totally reflected by the first reflecting surface; and a light emitting surface, wherein the first reflecting surface includes an elliptical spherical shape rotatably symmetrical with respect to a major axis extending in the forward/rearward direction, in first and second focal points constituted by the elliptical shape of the first reflecting surface, the second focal point disposed at a rear side between the first and second focal points is disposed in the vicinity of the light source, the second reflecting surface extends rearward from a point spaced a predetermined distance from the first focal point in an upward direction, and, among the light totally reflected by the first reflecting surface, light reaching the light emitting surface without being reflected by the second reflecting surface and light reaching the light emitting surface after being totally reflected by the second reflecting surface are emitted from the light emitting surface to be radiated forward.
HEAD LAMP DEVICE OF VEHICLE
A head lamp device of a vehicle comprises a pair of lamp units arranged in a direction perpendicular to a forward and rearward direction of a vehicle body, each of the pair of lamp units including at least one light emitting element; and a lighting circuit unit which is supplied with electric power from a power supply and lights the at least one light emitting element, wherein at least a portion of the lighting circuit unit is disposed in a gap formed between the pair of lamp units in the direction in which the pair of lamp units are arranged.
HEAD LAMP DEVICE OF STRADDLE-TYPE VEHICLE
A head lamp device of a straddle-type vehicle, comprises at least one lamp unit including at least one light source and a plurality of emission ports through which light emitted from the light source is output; and a cover member including a transmission section which transmits in a forward direction of a vehicle body, the light output through the plurality of emission ports, and covering a front portion of the lamp unit, wherein the transmission section includes a first surface, and a second surface bent with respect to the first surface, and an edge is provided on a ridge line formed by the first surface and the second surface, and wherein the edge extends through a gap formed between two adjacent emission ports of the plurality of emission ports.
HEAD LAMP DEVICE OF STRADDLE-TYPE VEHICLE
A head lamp device of a straddle-type vehicle, comprises a housing; a pair of light units which are disposed at right and left sides, respectively, in a rightward and leftward direction, and emit light in a forward direction; a pair of support point members which support the pair of light units, respectively; a pair of first tilt members which tilt the pair of light units, respectively in a first direction with respect to the housing; and a pair of second tilt members which tilt the pair of light units, respectively in a second direction with respect to the housing, the pair of support point members are disposed in outward regions, respectively, of the housing in the rightward and leftward direction, and the pair of first tilt members and the pair of second tilt members are disposed in a center region of the housing in the rightward and leftward direction.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR A HANDLEBAR INTERCONNECTOR
A handlebar mount includes a first side body and a second side body; and a central body, the central body interconnecting the first and second side bodies. The handlebar mount further includes a first elastic portion and a second elastic portion, oriented on the first and second side bodies, respectively. The handlebar mount further includes a first hook and a second hook, the first and second hooks oriented to receive the first and second elastic portions, respectively, and hold them securely.
FRONT STRUCTURE OF SADDLE RIDE TYPE VEHICLE
A front structure of a saddle ride type vehicle includes a headlight unit, and a front cowl. The headlight unit includes at least one lens portion. The front cowl includes an annular cowl configured to surround the lens portions, an upper cowl configured to cover at least an upper portion of the annular cowl from the front side, and a wind screen. The edge portion of the upper cowl includes a portion that forms a slit-shaped opening. The annular cowl includes a light-shielding wall extending backward from a rear portion of the upper cowl between the opening and the wind screen.
FRONT STRUCTURE OF SADDLE RIDE TYPE VEHICLE
A front structure of a saddle ride type vehicle includes a headlight unit, a front cowl, and a middle cowl. At a position outside the headlight unit in the vehicle width direction, an air intake portion opening to the front side of the vehicle is formed between the front cowl and the middle cowl. The front cowl includes a partition wall configured to divide the air intake portion into an upper region and a lower region. The lower region forms an inlet of an air intake path of an air cleaner. The upper region forms a first wind guide path configured to discharge a traveling wind to the rear side of the front cowl.
Closing device with electrical contact
A closing device for releasably connecting two parts includes a first closing part which has a first engaging projection, and a second closing part which has a second engaging projections. The first closing part and the second closing part can be attached to each other in order to close the closing device and, in a closed position, are interconnected mechanically by the first engaging projection and the second engaging projection is in engagement with each other in a positive locking manner in the closed position. A magnetic device acting between the first closing part and the second closing part is designed to assist the attaching of the first closing part and the second closing part to each other by providing a magnetic attraction force. The first closing part has at least one first electrical contact element and the second closing part has at least one second electrical contact element.
METHOD AND ELECTROMECHANICAL DEVICE FOR STABILIZING A MOTORCYCLE FRONT LIGHTING
Method and electromechanical device (1) for stabilizing the front lighting of a motorcycle provided with a front lighting device (2). The electromechanical device (1) comprises a sensor set (3) for detecting the lateral tilting angle experienced by the motorcycle on taking a curve and a motor (4) to drive the gear system (8). The gear system (8) forces the lighting device (2) to turn a rotation angle that compensates the lateral tilting experienced by the motorcycle. In this way, by means of the electromechanical device (1) of the invention, an appropriate distribution of the front lighting of the motorcycle is maintained throughout the entire straight-line or curvilinear path, without the need to add additional lighting devices and in accordance with the prevailing regulation regarding front lighting devices.
Straddle-type vehicle
A straddle-type vehicle which turns while a vehicle body is banked to a first side in a vehicle width direction around a predetermined angular displacement center, comprises a head lamp which irradiates a head lamp irradiation region set to be forward relative to the vehicle body; a first auxiliary lamp which irradiates a first auxiliary lamp irradiation region set to be forward relative to the head lamp irradiation region, in a region which is inward with respect to a turning direction; and a second auxiliary lamp which irradiates a second auxiliary lamp irradiation region set to be forward relative to the first auxiliary lamp irradiation region, in the region which is inward with respect to the turning direction, wherein a distance between the second auxiliary lamp and the angular displacement center is less than a distance between the first auxiliary lamp and the angular displacement center.
