A three wheeled velocipede for three wheeled transport of a driver and a passenger includes a rear frame. A rear wheel is rotationally coupled to the rear frame. A drive train is coupled to the rear frame and operationally coupled to the rear wheel. The drive train is configured to transfer pedal motion imparted by a driver to the rear wheel. A first seat, positioned to seat the driver, is coupled to the rear frame. A front frame is pivotally coupled to a front end of the rear frame. A second seat is couplable to the front frame. The second seat is positionable to seat a passenger. Each of a pair of front wheels is rotationally coupled to a respective opposing side of the front frame.

Front cowl for a saddle ride type vehicle
09815503 · 2017-11-14 · ·

An air outlet is formed on each side surface of a front cowl covering a front portion of a vehicle body. The air outlet is located near and on the front side of a middle position defined by the half of the longitudinal length L of the front cowl. Left and right air inlets are formed near a headlight provided on the front surface of the front cowl. A running wind is introduced into the air inlets, passed through the inside of the front cowl, and discharged from the air outlets. The running wind flowing inside the front cowl is disturbed by the running wind discharged from the air outlets, thereby separating the running wind from each side surface of the front cowl.

Vehicle headlight device

A vehicle headlight device 100 according to the present invention includes a first lamp 92 that has a light source 211, an optical system 21, a rolling mechanism 50, and a control circuit 60. The optical system 21 includes a first wedge prism 30 and a second wedge prism 40 in which an incident ray from the light source 211 is deflected and projected. The rolling mechanism 50 rotates the first wedge prism 30 about a rotation axis. The control circuit 60 controls the rolling mechanism 50 so that the first wedge prism 30 is rotated in a direction opposite to a vehicle bank direction in accordance with a vehicle bank angle d. The first wedge prism 30 and the second wedge prism 40 are disposed so that their surfaces perpendicular to the rotation axis face each other. The first wedge prism 30 is disposed so that a wedge angle a1 directs in a road surface direction. The first wedge prism 30 is disposed so as to be rotatable about the rotation axis.

A bell cover lighting structure includes a fixing seat; a connecting seat disposed on the connecting seat; a bell cover mount at a front side of the connecting seat and having a concave space defined by an inner circumferential surface thereof; a lighting device accommodated in the concave space of the bell cover; and a striking member. The striking member has a push section at one end thereof and an extension section bent and extending over the bell cover at another end thereof. The striking member is provided with an elastic member pivotally connected with the striking member and the connecting seat. One end of the elastic member leans against a lower edge of the push section and another end leans against the connecting seat, enabling the extension section to have elasticity for striking the bell cover.

STRADDLE-TYPE VEHICLE

A straddle-type vehicle comprises a vehicle body frame; a heavy weight vehicle member mounted on a vehicle body; a support member fastened to the vehicle body frame to support the heavy weight vehicle member; and a vehicle body behavior sensor which detects a behavior of the vehicle body, and the vehicle body behavior sensor is mounted on the support member.

VEHICLE LIGHT

A vehicle light, wherein light to be emitted by a base light source which is offset with respect to an emission surface is first conducted radially outwards in targeted manner and is then reflected in an axial direction with respect to the emission surface, uses light-conducting bodies, which are spaced apart from a deflection mirror, or a light-conducting space, which extends first radially and then axially, to obtain as light-intensive, uniform and directional light emissions as possible.

Headlight module and headlight device

A headlight module includes: a light source for emitting light; a condensing optical element for concentrating the light; and an optical element including an incident surface for receiving the concentrated light, a reflecting surface for reflecting the received light, and an emitting surface for emitting the reflected light. The condensing optical element changes a divergence angle of the light to form a light distribution pattern. The reflected light and light that enters the optical element and is not reflected by the reflecting surface are superposed on a plane including a point located at a focal position of the emitting surface in a direction of an optical axis of the emitting surface and being perpendicular to the optical axis, thereby forming a high luminous intensity region in the light distribution pattern on the plane. The emitting surface has positive refractive power and projects the light distribution pattern formed on the plane.
