Abstract

To eliminate the operation that has conventionally required at each delivery location and reduce the delivery time by automatically performing parking braking in accordance with riding on/off by a driver.SOLUTION: A three or more wheel vehicle is configured to be driven with a standing posture, and thus seating is omitted. Also, riding on/off allows a parking braking mechanism to operate, and parking braking or its releasing is performed without operating the parking braking mechanism. As a result, the vehicle is promptly driven. When banking while turning during traveling, a front mechanism and a rear mechanism are rotated about a vehicle body rotation axis disposed above a floor of the vehicle driven by a driver; therefore, the front mechan banks and a natural bank feeling is obtained.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

配送車両は例えば軽自動車等の四輪車両の場合は配送先毎に停車、変速機操作、駐車制動操作、シートベルト脱帯、ドア解放、降車、ドア閉塞して配送を行い ドア解放、乗車、ドア閉塞、シートベルト装着、駐車制動解除操作、変速機操作、発進を各配送先毎に行わねばならない。二輪車の場合は配送先毎に停車、変速機操作、降車、スタンド操作をして配送し、発車のためにスタンド操作、乗車、変速機操作、発進を配送先毎に必要とされる。これらの必要な複数の操作があるために配送先毎にかかる時間が多いことが問題である。又、三輪又は、三輪以上の車輪を有する車両の場合、旋回進行するときに遠心力で運転者が旋回外側に力を受けるため運転者の乗車している車体を遠心力に抗して旋回内側に倒しバンクする複雑な機構が備えられていので製造コストの上昇や車両重量の増加による燃費の低下の問題もある。バーハンドルを握り立ち姿勢で運転すると、着座動作が省略でき、これも配送先毎に必要な時間の短縮につながる。運転者の乗降車により、駐車制動の動作を自動で行うようにして、従来配送先毎に必要とされてきた操作を省略して配送時間の短縮を実現する。 For example, in the case of a four-wheeled vehicle such as a light vehicle, the delivery vehicle is stopped, the transmission is operated, the parking brake is operated, the seatbelt is unfastened, the door is released, the vehicle is disembarked, the door is closed and the vehicle is delivered. Door closure, seatbelt attachment, parking brake release operation, transmission operation, and start must be performed for each delivery destination. In the case of a two-wheeled vehicle, the vehicle is delivered by stopping, operating the transmission, getting off, and operating the stand for each delivery destination, and the stand operation, boarding, transmission operation, and starting are required for each delivery destination for departure. The problem is that it takes a lot of time for each delivery destination due to these necessary multiple operations. Further, in the case of a vehicle having three wheels or three or more wheels, the driver receives a force on the outside of the turn due to the centrifugal force when the vehicle is turning, so that the vehicle body on which the driver is riding is turned inside against the centrifugal force. Since it is equipped with a complicated mechanism for knocking down and banking, there is also the problem of a decrease in fuel consumption due to an increase in manufacturing cost and an increase in vehicle weight. If you hold the bar handle and drive in a standing position, you can omit the sitting motion, which also shortens the time required for each delivery destination. By automatically performing the parking braking operation when the driver gets on and off, the delivery time can be shortened by omitting the operation conventionally required for each delivery destination.

配送車両をバーハンドルを握り、立ち姿勢で運転できるようにし、騎乗又は、着座する動作を省略する。駐車制動装置は運転者の乗車により制動が解除され、降車により制動される機構を用いる。車両は自立出来るように少なくとも三輪又は、三輪以上の車輪を有し、配送時のスタンド操作を省略する。駐車制動装置の操作を省略して迅速な配送が可能となる車両を提供する。走行中左右に旋回するときには遠心力で運転者の体が旋回する外側に倒れるため前部機構部を遠心力に抗して内側に倒れるようにする。運転者乗車床より上方に設けられた車体回転軸により、前部機構部と後部機構部を回転可能な構造として、遠心力と釣り合ったバンク角を実現し運転者が快適に運転できるようにする。 The delivery vehicle can be driven in a standing position by grasping the bar handle, and the operation of riding or sitting is omitted. The parking braking device uses a mechanism in which braking is released when the driver gets on the vehicle and is braked when the driver gets off the vehicle. The vehicle has at least three wheels or three or more wheels so that it can stand on its own, and the stand operation at the time of delivery is omitted. To provide a vehicle that enables quick delivery by omitting the operation of the parking brake device. When turning left and right while driving, the driver's body falls to the outside where the driver's body turns due to centrifugal force, so the front mechanism is made to fall inward against the centrifugal force. The front mechanism and rear mechanism can be rotated by the vehicle body rotation shaft provided above the driver's boarding floor, and a bank angle balanced with centrifugal force is realized so that the driver can drive comfortably. ..

バーハンドルを握り立ち姿勢で運転できるため、配送車両に乗降し着座、騎乗する必要がないので、配送時間の短縮に寄与できる。また、駐車制動装置の操作も運転者の乗降により自動的に行われるため特に操作の必要はない。このため配送時間の短縮に寄与できる。旋回走行時の車体の傾斜機構も車体の車体回転軸の軸芯より乗員の立つ床板の位置を下方に設けることで全部機構部を遠心力によりバンクすることができる。この様に簡単な構造のため車体重量を軽減できる。乗員は遠心力に対してそれと釣り合うように旋回中心方向に倒しバンクすることで遠心力で外側に力を受けず乗り心地を改善できる。 Since the bar handle can be operated in a standing position, there is no need to get on, off, sit down, or ride on the delivery vehicle, which can contribute to shortening the delivery time. Further, the parking brake device is automatically operated by the driver getting on and off, so that no particular operation is required. Therefore, it can contribute to shortening the delivery time. As for the tilting mechanism of the vehicle body during turning, the entire mechanism can be banked by centrifugal force by providing the position of the floor plate on which the occupant stands below the axis of the vehicle body rotation shaft. Due to such a simple structure, the weight of the vehicle body can be reduced. The occupant can improve the ride quality without receiving external force due to the centrifugal force by tilting and banking in the direction of the turning center so as to be balanced with the centrifugal force.

本発明の車両はバーハンドルを握り、着座しないで運転出来、疲労等を感じた時には一時的に着座出来るサドルを設けても良い、乗降は左右任意にできる構造の三輪又は、三輪以上の車輪を有する原動機を有する車両。運転者乗車床に運転者が乗車することで,その体重により駐車制動は解除される。運転者が降車することで駐車制動する。駐車制動装置は倍力機構を用いる事も妨げない。 The vehicle of the present invention may be provided with a saddle that can be driven without sitting by gripping the bar handle and can be temporarily seated when feeling tired. A vehicle with a prime mover. When the driver gets on the floor, the parking brake is released by the weight of the driver. Parking braking is performed when the driver gets off. The parking braking device does not prevent the use of a boosting mechanism.

運転はバーハンドルで操舵しアクセルやブレーキ等の操作ができるレバー、回転グリップ等をハンドルに取り付けている。また、運転に必要とされる保安装置の操作もハンドル部に設けた操作スイッチやボタンにより行えようにしても良い。速度の表示やその他運転に必要な情報の表示ランプ、メータ等の装置もハンドルに設けられても良い。雨天に備え屋根やフロントウインドを備えることが好ましい。 Driving is steered with a bar handle, and levers, rotary grips, etc. that can operate accelerators and brakes are attached to the handle. Further, the operation of the security device required for operation may also be performed by the operation switch or button provided on the handle portion. Devices such as speed indicators and other information necessary for driving, such as lamps and meters, may also be provided on the steering wheel. It is preferable to have a roof and front window in case of rain.

操舵による旋回走行時には車体は遠心力で回転中心方向に傾くように運転者の立つ運転者乗車床は車体回転軸の中心軸よりも下側に設けられている。これにより重心点は車体回転軸中心よりも下側に来る。このため、遠心力を受けると前輪、フォーク、ハンドル、運転者乗車床等で構成される前部機構部は旋回半径中心方向に傾く事が可能となる。車体回転軸は後輪、駆動機構、原動機等を含む車体機構部と前部機構部とをこの軸の軸芯を中心に互いに回転できる構造である。この車体回転軸は車両の左右のほぼ中央を通り、車両進行方向に平行かつ路盤面に対して鉛直な面内に軸芯を有する。又、この軸芯の車体前方の延長線は前輪の接地点近傍に有ることが好ましく、これにより、全部機構部は前輪着地点から大きくずれる事なく傾けることが出来る。 The driver's boarding floor on which the driver stands is provided below the central axis of the vehicle body rotation shaft so that the vehicle body tilts toward the center of rotation due to centrifugal force during turning by steering. As a result, the center of gravity is located below the center of the rotation axis of the vehicle body. Therefore, when the centrifugal force is received, the front mechanism portion composed of the front wheels, the fork, the steering wheel, the driver's boarding floor, and the like can be tilted toward the center of the turning radius. The vehicle body rotation shaft has a structure in which the vehicle body mechanism portion including the rear wheel, the drive mechanism, the prime mover, etc. and the front mechanism portion can rotate with each other around the axis of this shaft. This vehicle body rotation axis passes through substantially the center of the left and right sides of the vehicle, and has a shaft core in a plane parallel to the vehicle traveling direction and perpendicular to the roadbed surface. Further, it is preferable that the extension line in front of the vehicle body of this axis is near the ground contact point of the front wheels, so that all the mechanical parts can be tilted without being greatly deviated from the landing point of the front wheels.

実施例として三輪の車両構造に基づき説明を行うが、前輪1はダブルタイヤの四輪車両でもよい。前輪1とそれを支持し操舵するためのフロントフォーク2、フロントフォーク操舵回動軸支部3を有する運転者乗車床4、床に設けられた駐車制動板5又、フロントフーフォーク2上部に固定された操舵のためのハンドル6が有る前部機構部7と後輪8、図示しない後輪駆動機構、原動機等を有する後部機構部10を互いに軸支する車体回転軸11を有する車両。 Although the description will be given based on the vehicle structure of three wheels as an embodiment, the front wheel 1 may be a four-wheel vehicle with double tires. The front wheel 1 and the front fork 2 for supporting and steering it, the driver's boarding floor 4 having the front fork steering rotation shaft branch 3, the parking brake plate 5 provided on the floor, and the front fork 2 fixed to the upper part. A vehicle having a vehicle body rotation shaft 11 that mutually supports a front mechanism portion 7 and a rear wheel 8 having a steering wheel 6 for steering, a rear wheel drive mechanism (not shown), and a rear mechanism portion 10 having a prime mover and the like.

車体回転軸11は車両の進行方向と平行で、車両左右の中央を通る面内にあり、その軸芯の延長は前輪1の接地点近傍になるように設ける事が好ましく、操舵操作による車体の左右への移動が抑えられる。運転者乗車床4に運転者26が乗車しハンドル6を操作して旋回を始めた場合、運転者26は遠心力により旋回中心の外側へ力を受けるため、体が外側へ倒れないように足に力を入れて支えるので運転者乗車床4は旋回中心の外側に力を受けて、運転者乗車床4、ハンドル6を含む前部機構部は車体回転軸11を中心に旋回中心方向に傾き、遠心力と釣り合うバンク角となる。駐車制動板5は運転者乗車床4の陥凹部に設けられることが好ましく、運転者26の乗降に支障のないよう配慮する。また、車体回転軸11の軸芯は運転者乗車床5の上方に設けられている。 The vehicle body rotation shaft 11 is parallel to the traveling direction of the vehicle and is in a plane passing through the center of the left and right sides of the vehicle. Movement to the left and right is suppressed. When the driver 26 gets on the driver's boarding floor 4 and operates the steering wheel 6 to start turning, the driver 26 receives a force to the outside of the turning center due to the centrifugal force, so that the body does not fall outward. The driver's boarding floor 4 receives a force outside the turning center, and the front mechanism including the driver's boarding floor 4 and the steering wheel 6 tilts toward the turning center around the vehicle body rotation axis 11. , The bank angle is balanced with the centrifugal force. The parking brake plate 5 is preferably provided in the recess of the driver's boarding floor 4, and care is taken so as not to hinder the getting on and off of the driver 26. Further, the axis of the vehicle body rotation shaft 11 is provided above the driver's boarding floor 5.

運転者26が乗車していない状態では駐車制動板5は駐車制動板戻しバネ12により付勢され、駐車制動板回動支点25を中心に反時計方向に回動する。このため、駐車制動板5に回動自在に結合される可撓性のワイヤー14が弛緩する。ワイヤー14の他端はカム回動中心20を中心に回動する駐車制動レバー22に回動自在に結合されている。ワイヤー14が弛緩すると、駐車制動レバー22はワイヤー制動戻しバネ23の作用でカム回動中心20を中心に時計方向に回動する。駐車制動レバー22と一体に回動する駐車制動回転カム19も一体に時計方向に回動する。駐車制動回転カム19は左右のブレーキシュー17のブレーキシュー支点21の他端に接しており、反時計方向の回転によりカム作動半径は増加する。左右のブレーキシュー17はカム半径が増加するために、制動ドラム16の内面へブレーキシュー戻しバネ18に抗して押し付られて駐車制動する。 When the driver 26 is not on board, the parking brake plate 5 is urged by the parking brake plate return spring 12 and rotates counterclockwise around the parking brake plate rotation fulcrum 25. Therefore, the flexible wire 14 rotatably coupled to the parking brake plate 5 relaxes. The other end of the wire 14 is rotatably coupled to a parking brake lever 22 that rotates about the cam rotation center 20. When the wire 14 is relaxed, the parking braking lever 22 rotates clockwise around the cam rotation center 20 by the action of the wire braking return spring 23. The parking braking rotation cam 19, which rotates integrally with the parking braking lever 22, also rotates integrally in the clockwise direction. The parking braking rotation cam 19 is in contact with the other end of the brake shoe fulcrum 21 of the left and right brake shoes 17, and the cam operating radius increases due to the counterclockwise rotation. Since the cam radius of the left and right brake shoes 17 increases, the left and right brake shoes 17 are pressed against the brake shoe return spring 18 against the inner surface of the braking drum 16 to perform parking braking.

運転者26が乗車している状態では駐車制動板5は駐車制動板戻しバネ12に抗して、駐車制動板回動支点25を中心に時計方向に回動する。このため、駐車制動板5に回動自在に結合される可撓性のワイヤー14が緊縮される。ワイヤー14の他端はカム回動中心20を中心に回動する駐車制動レバー22に回動自在に結合されている。ワイヤー14が緊縮すると、駐車制動レバー22はワイヤー制動戻しバネ23に抗して、カム回動中心20を中心に反時計方向に回動する。駐車制動レバー22と一体に回動する駐車制動回転カム19も一体に反時計方向に回動する。駐車制動回転カム19は左右のブレーキシュー17のブレーキシュー支点21の他端に接しており、反時計方向の回転によりカム作動半径は減少する。左右のブレーキシュー17はカム半径が減少するために、制動ドラム16の内面へブレーキシュー戻しバネ18の作用で制動ドラム16の内側へ移動して駐車制動を解除する。 When the driver 26 is on board, the parking brake plate 5 rotates clockwise around the parking brake plate rotation fulcrum 25 against the parking brake plate return spring 12. Therefore, the flexible wire 14 rotatably coupled to the parking brake plate 5 is contracted. The other end of the wire 14 is rotatably coupled to a parking brake lever 22 that rotates about the cam rotation center 20. When the wire 14 is contracted, the parking braking lever 22 rotates counterclockwise around the cam rotation center 20 against the wire braking return spring 23. The parking braking rotation cam 19, which rotates integrally with the parking braking lever 22, also rotates integrally in the counterclockwise direction. The parking brake rotation cam 19 is in contact with the other end of the brake shoe fulcrum 21 of the left and right brake shoes 17, and the cam operating radius is reduced by the counterclockwise rotation. Since the cam radius of the left and right brake shoes 17 decreases, the brake shoe return spring 18 moves to the inside of the braking drum 16 to the inner surface of the braking drum 16 to release the parking braking.

駐車制動板5の動きで駐車制動を制御する方法は、この例ではヤイヤーに依っているが、必ずしもヤイヤーで無く手も良く、油圧機構、リンク機構、電気的な方法でも、また他の方法でもよい。必要により倍力装置を用いてより強力な制動力を得ることも妨げない。 The method of controlling the parking brake by the movement of the parking brake plate 5 depends on the yayer in this example, but it is not necessarily the yayer and the hand is good, and the hydraulic mechanism, the link mechanism, the electric method, or another method can be used. good. If necessary, it does not prevent the use of a booster to obtain a stronger braking force.

新聞、郵便物、宅配物品等の配送を迅速にできる原動機の装備された車両を提供提供し、配送時間を短縮して、配送コストの低減や、配送人員の労働負荷を軽減することにある。又、車両製造コストの低減も意図される。 The purpose is to provide and provide vehicles equipped with a prime mover that can quickly deliver newspapers, mail, parcel delivery goods, etc., shorten delivery time, reduce delivery costs, and reduce the labor load of delivery personnel. It is also intended to reduce vehicle manufacturing costs.
