A grip bar extending from one side to the other side in the cross direction of the cart is attached on the inner side of a roof plate in the front of each bench seat. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Description

本発明は、運転席を除く座席への乗降動作を迅速かつ安全に行えるようにしたゴルフカーに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a golf car capable of quickly and safely getting on and off a seat excluding a driver's seat.

一般に、ゴルフカーは小型のエンジンで走行する比較的低い車体の四輪自動車であり、運転席を含む前席と、その後に配置された後席との前後2列に配置されている。それらのシートは数人分の座面が連続している、いわゆるベンチシートであり、その長手方向の両端部近傍に、それぞれ取っ手が設けてある
In general, a golf car is a four-wheeled vehicle with a relatively low vehicle body that runs on a small engine, and is arranged in two rows in the front and rear, including a front seat including a driver's seat and a rear seat disposed thereafter. These seats are so-called bench seats with seating surfaces for several people, and there are handles in the vicinity of both ends in the longitudinal direction.
.

他方、ゴルフカーは、近年、遠隔制御で必要箇所まで呼び出すと、指定した位置まで低速で自動走行してくるものがあり、ゴルフのプレイヤーは、しばしば、走行してくるゴルフカーが停止する直前や、発進した直後に急いで乗降することがあり、車両の構成に迅速な乗降を可能にする構成が求められる。   On the other hand, in recent years, there are golf cars that automatically run at a low speed to a designated position when called up to a necessary location by remote control, and golf players often run just before a running golf car stops. There is a case where the vehicle gets on and off immediately after starting, and the vehicle configuration is required to be able to get on and off quickly.

そして、ゴルフカーも乗用車など他の車両と同様に、前席と後席との間隔が狭いため、迅速に乗降するには、座席に着座した状態で両足を車外へ出して横座りし、その状態から地面に下り立ったり、逆に、車両にお尻を向けて横向きに着座し、その状態から両足を引き上げて乗る方法が安全ですばやく行動できる。   And, as with other vehicles such as passenger cars, the distance between the front seat and the rear seat is also narrow, so to get on and off quickly, take your feet out of the vehicle while sitting on the seat and sit sideways. It is possible to act safely and quickly by standing down from the ground to the ground, or conversely, sitting on the vehicle with the hips facing sideways and lifting both feet from that state.

しかしながら、従来のゴルフカーは乗車したプレイヤー(以下、同乗者という)のお尻が社外へ滑り落ちないように、前記ベンチシートの両端部にパイプ製の手すりが設けられている。そのため前記手すりが邪魔になって上記の方法による迅速な乗降を困難にしていた。もっとも、手すりの上から強引にベンチシートの上へお尻を車内に入れて着座することも、必ずしも不可能なことという訳ではないが、そのような乗り方をすると着座直後にベンチシートの上で転び易くなる不具合があった。   However, in the conventional golf car, pipe handrails are provided at both ends of the bench seat so that the buttocks of the player (hereinafter referred to as passenger) riding on the golf car do not slide off the outside. For this reason, the handrail is in the way, making it difficult to get on and off quickly. However, it is not always impossible to sit on the bench seat forcibly from the handrail onto the bench seat. There was a problem that it was easy to fall.

そこで、近年はベンチシートの両端部に取り付けられている手すりの前後方向の幅を小さくして、手すりを乗り越えることなく、お尻から乗車できるようにしたゴルフカーも提供されている
。しかし、この構成は前席と後席の間隔が大きくなってしまい車体が大きくなってしまう不具合があった。
Therefore, in recent years, a golf car has been provided in which the width of the handrail attached to both ends of the bench seat is reduced in the front-rear direction so that the user can get on the buttocks without getting over the handrail.
. However, this configuration has a problem that the distance between the front seat and the rear seat becomes large and the vehicle body becomes large.

発明者らはこの考え方を一層発展させて、ベンチシートの手すりを外して、乗降性の向上を図ったが、一旦、乗車した後に身体を支えるところがなく、正常な姿勢に体制を立て直すのが難しくなった。また、手すりを外してしまうことによって、両足が容易に車外へ出し易くなって降車が容易になったものゝ、前記と同様に、掴むところをとってしまったことに起因する降車直後の身体の不安定を解消し得なかった。
特開2002−306654号公報 特開2001−171363号公報
The inventors developed this idea further and removed the handrails on the bench seats to improve boarding / exiting performance, but once riding, there was no place to support the body and it was difficult to rebuild the system to a normal posture. became. Also, by removing the handrail, both feet can easily get out of the car and get off easily, and as before, the body immediately after getting off due to having taken the grip. Instability could not be resolved.

解決しようとする問題点は、ベンチシートの両端に取り付けられるべき手すりをなくした場合に、乗降の前後に同乗者の乗車姿勢が不安定となり易い不具合を、簡単な構造を付加することによって解消することである。   The problem to be solved is solved by adding a simple structure to the problem that the passenger's riding posture tends to become unstable before and after getting on and off when handrails to be attached to both ends of the bench seat are eliminated. That is.

本発明は、運転席を含む前席とその後側に配置された後席との、前後2列に配置される座席の構造を、数人が並んで腰掛けることのできるベンチシートとし、その前方の屋根板内側に、左右方向へ伸びる天井グリップを設けることを最も主要な特徴とする。   The present invention is a bench seat that can be seated side by side by arranging several seats arranged in front and rear rows of a front seat including a driver's seat and a rear seat arranged on the rear side thereof, The most important feature is that a ceiling grip extending in the left-right direction is provided inside the roof panel.

本発明にかかるゴルフカーは、同乗者の座る座席をベンチシートとしたから、身体を車室内に置いた状態で、足を出し入れすることによって乗降することが可能であり、車室内の足元スペースが狭くても容易、かつ迅速に乗降できる。また、車内へ入った瞬間、あるいは社外へ出る瞬間に天井グリップを掴むことにより、姿勢の崩れを阻止できるから乗降を安全に行うことができる。   In the golf car according to the present invention, the seat on which the passenger sits is a bench seat, so it is possible to get on and off by putting in and out the foot while the body is placed in the passenger compartment, and there is a foot space in the passenger compartment. Even if it is narrow, you can get on and off easily and quickly. In addition, by grasping the ceiling grip at the moment of entering the vehicle or leaving the vehicle, it is possible to prevent getting in and out of the vehicle safely.

また、天井グリップは車幅方向全域に伸びているので、これを把持することにより、乗車中に座席を移動させたり、車両の旋回で横方向の重力加速度が作用したときなどに、身体を安定に保つことができる、などの利点がある。   In addition, the ceiling grip extends across the entire width of the vehicle, so gripping it stabilizes the body when the seat is moved while riding or when lateral acceleration of gravity occurs when the vehicle turns. There are advantages such as being able to keep it.

以下、本発明の実施例を図面によって説明する。図1中、10は4人乗りの小型ゴルフカーである。ゴルフカー10は前輪11と後輪12とによって支持される車台14を有し、その車台14の上には操向ハンドル15の前に位置する前席16aと、その後側に配置される後席16bとが前後2列に配置されている。17、17はそれぞれベンチシート16の背褥である。なお、このゴルフカー10は操向ハンドル15と運転席とが車両の左側に位置する、いわゆる左ハンドル車である。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 10 denotes a four-seater small golf car. The golf car 10 has a chassis 14 supported by a front wheel 11 and a rear wheel 12. A front seat 16 a located in front of the steering handle 15 and a rear seat arranged on the rear side are disposed on the chassis 14. 16b are arranged in two rows. Reference numerals 17 and 17 denote backrests of the bench seat 16. The golf car 10 is a so-called left-hand drive vehicle in which the steering handle 15 and the driver's seat are located on the left side of the vehicle.

前記前席16aと後席16bとは、2人あるいは3人が並んで腰掛けることのできる、いわゆるベンチシート16であり、足を車外に出して横座りしたとき足が地面に着く高さに設定されていて、同乗者の乗降を容易にしてある。また、ベンチシート16は着座したまゝの状態から隣の席へ移動することができるよう、座褥の上面が平坦で左右方向に連続したものとなっている。   The front seat 16a and the rear seat 16b are so-called bench seats 16 in which two or three people can sit down side by side. It is easy for passengers to get on and off. In addition, the bench seat 16 has a flat top surface that is continuous in the left-right direction so that it can be moved from the seated state to the next seat.

20は前記ベンチシート16の上方を覆う屋根であり、前後に設けられた支柱22、23を介して前記車台14に固定されている。屋根20は硬質の繊維強化プラスチックを成型して作られ、かつ、内面に補強用のリブ20a、20aが設けてあって、高い剛性と強度とを備えている。   Reference numeral 20 denotes a roof that covers the top of the bench seat 16 and is fixed to the chassis 14 via support columns 22 and 23 provided at the front and rear. The roof 20 is made by molding a hard fiber reinforced plastic, and has ribs 20a and 20a for reinforcement on the inner surface, and has high rigidity and strength.

前記屋根20の下面に設けられた補強用のリブ20a、20aには、鉄製の取付板24がボルト(図示してない)によって着脱可能に固定されている。取付板24の下面には車両の幅方向に伸びる鋼管製の天井グリップ25が溶着されている。天井グリップ25は車体の幅方向にほぼ車内の全幅に亘って伸びており、ゴルフカー10の走行中、これを掴んで身体の安定を図るものである。すなわち、車両の振動や旋回によって身体が車体の外方へ振り出されるのを防止したり、腰を浮かせた状態で座席上を左右へ移動するとき、身体を支えるのに使用する。   An iron mounting plate 24 is detachably fixed to the reinforcing ribs 20a, 20a provided on the lower surface of the roof 20 by bolts (not shown). A steel pipe ceiling grip 25 extending in the width direction of the vehicle is welded to the lower surface of the mounting plate 24. The ceiling grip 25 extends in the width direction of the vehicle body over almost the entire width of the vehicle body, and is intended to stabilize the body by gripping the golf grip 10 while the golf car 10 is running. That is, it is used to support the body when the body is prevented from swinging out of the vehicle body due to vibration or turning of the vehicle, or when moving from side to side on the seat with the waist up.

さらに、各ベンチシート16、16の前方には、前方グリップ26、26が準備されている。前方グリップ26、26は前席に着席する乗客のためにダッシュボードその他の車体前面板に設けられ、また、後席に着席する乗客のために前席用ベンチシート16aの後部に取り付けられている。それらは、車体の幅方向に伸びるステンレス管からなり、ゴルフカー10が直進しているときその他、安定な走行をしているとき、これに掴まって不測の事態に備えるため設けられている。   Further, front grips 26, 26 are prepared in front of the bench seats 16, 16. The front grips 26, 26 are provided on the dashboard or other vehicle body front plate for passengers seated in the front seat, and are attached to the rear part of the front seat bench seat 16a for passengers seated in the rear seat. . They are made of stainless steel pipes extending in the width direction of the vehicle body, and are provided to prepare for unexpected situations when the golf car 10 is traveling straight or when it is running stably.

この実施例を利用した同乗者の挙動を説明すると、同乗者がゴルフカー10へ乗り込むとき、地上に立った位置から天井グリップ25、あるいは前方グリップ26を掴み、お尻をベンチシート16の上に載せ着座する。ついで、ベンチシート16の上で、身体をゴルフカー10の進行方向前方へ転向させることによって乗車動作が終わる。かくて、従来のように、ゴルフカー10へ足から乗り込む動作より乗車が容易である。また、一旦、乗車した後のベンチシート16上での移動や、車両の急旋回時に身体の保持のために使用することが容易に、かつ安全に行える。   The passenger's behavior using this embodiment will be described. When the passenger gets into the golf car 10, the ceiling grip 25 or the front grip 26 is grasped from the position standing on the ground, and the buttocks are placed on the bench seat 16. Sit down. Next, the ride operation is completed by turning the body forward in the traveling direction of the golf car 10 on the bench seat 16. Thus, it is easier to get on than the operation of getting into the golf car 10 from the foot as in the prior art. In addition, it can be easily and safely used for holding the body when the vehicle is once moved on the bench seat 16 or when the vehicle turns suddenly.

同乗者がゴルフカー10から降りるときには、前向きの姿勢からベンチシート16の上で、天井グリップ25、あるいは前方グリップ26を掴み、社外方向へ向きを変え足を外へ出すことによって前向きで降車できるから、降車後の姿勢の維持が容易で、安全に降車できる。   When the passenger gets off the golf car 10, it is possible to get off the vehicle forward by grabbing the ceiling grip 25 or the front grip 26 on the bench seat 16 from a forward-facing posture, changing the direction to the outside direction, and taking the foot out. It is easy to maintain the posture after getting off and can get off safely.
