 また、プラス端子51pに接続されるプラス側ハーネス80pの接続端部80p1及びプラス端子51pは、覆い部88によって覆われている。
With reference to FIGS. 6 and 11, the minus-side harness 80 n covers the band main body portion 85 from above at the other end portion of the band 68. That is, the other end of the band 68 is sandwiched between the negative harness 80 n and the upper surface 51 a of the battery 51.
The side wall 89 at the other end of the band 68 is sandwiched between the negative harness 80 n and the wall 81 of the battery case 60.
The side wall 89 of the band 68 overlaps the side surface of the minus side harness 80n when viewed in the insertion direction of the band 68 with respect to the wall 81 (the sliding direction of the band 68).
Further, the connecting end portion 80p1 and the plus terminal 51p of the plus side harness 80p connected to the plus terminal 51p are covered with a cover portion 88.
 ここで、バッテリ51をバッテリケース60から取り出す手順の一例を説明する。
 図11の状態では、プラス側ハーネス80pが、バッテリケース60に固定されたバンド68の覆い部88によって覆われているため、覆い部88が邪魔になり、プラス側ハーネス80pをプラス端子51pから取り外すことは困難である。
 また、図11の状態では、バンド68の他端部がマイナス側ハーネス80nによって覆われているため、マイナス側ハーネス80nがバンド68の取り外しの邪魔になり、バンド68を取り外すことは困難である。
Here, an example of a procedure for taking out the battery 51 from the battery case 60 will be described.
In the state of FIG. 11, since the plus side harness 80p is covered by the cover portion 88 of the band 68 fixed to the battery case 60, the cover portion 88 becomes an obstacle, and the plus side harness 80p is removed from the plus terminal 51p. It is difficult.
In the state of FIG. 11, the other end portion of the band 68 is covered with the minus side harness 80n. Therefore, the minus side harness 80n obstructs the removal of the band 68, and it is difficult to remove the band 68.
 さらに、図11の状態では、バンド固定具84を取り外したとしても、マイナス側ハーネス80nが、バンド68を壁部81から取り外す際のバンド68のスライド方向に位置するため、マイナス側ハーネス80nが側壁部89のスライドによる移動の邪魔になり、バンド68を取り外すことは困難である。また、壁部81があるため、バンド68を壁部81側にスライドさせて取り外すことも困難である。
 これにより、プラス側ハーネス80p及びバンド68よりも先にマイナス側ハーネス80nを取り外すべきことが作業者に示唆される。
Further, in the state of FIG. 11, even if the band fixing tool 84 is removed, the minus side harness 80n is positioned in the sliding direction of the band 68 when the band 68 is removed from the wall portion 81, so It is difficult to remove the band 68 because it obstructs the movement of the portion 89 by sliding. Further, since the wall portion 81 is present, it is difficult to slide the band 68 toward the wall portion 81 and remove it.
This suggests to the operator that the minus side harness 80n should be removed before the plus side harness 80p and the band 68.
 図12のようにマイナス側ハーネス80n及びバンド固定具84が取り外された状態では、作業者は、バンド68をプラス端子51p側に車幅方向へスライドさせることで、バンド68を取り外すことができる。これにより、プラス側ハーネス80pの接続端部80p1が露出し、作業者はプラス側ハーネス80pをプラス端子51pから取り外すことができる。 In the state where the minus side harness 80n and the band fixture 84 are removed as shown in FIG. 12, the operator can remove the band 68 by sliding the band 68 toward the plus terminal 51p in the vehicle width direction. Thereby, the connection end 80p1 of the plus side harness 80p is exposed, and the operator can remove the plus side harness 80p from the plus terminal 51p.
 また、本実施の形態では、バッテリ51をバッテリケース60に取り付ける際にも、プラス側ハーネス80pをマイナス側ハーネス80nよりも先に取り付けるべきことを示唆することができる。
 すなわち、マイナス側ハーネス80n及びバンド68をプラス側ハーネス80pよりも先に取り付けた場合、覆い部88が邪魔になり、プラス側ハーネス80pをプラス端子51pに接続することが困難となる。
Moreover, in this Embodiment, when attaching the battery 51 to the battery case 60, it can be suggested that the plus side harness 80p should be attached before the minus side harness 80n.
That is, when the minus-side harness 80n and the band 68 are attached before the plus-side harness 80p, the cover 88 becomes an obstacle and it is difficult to connect the plus-side harness 80p to the plus terminal 51p.
 バッテリ51の周壁部51bの上部は、ケース本体部61の後壁61c及び前壁61dに形成された切欠部61g,61gから外側に露出する。このため、作業者は、バッテリ51の着脱の際に、切欠部61g,61gを介してバッテリ51を把持でき、作業性が良い。 The upper part of the peripheral wall 51b of the battery 51 is exposed to the outside from the notches 61g and 61g formed in the rear wall 61c and the front wall 61d of the case main body 61. For this reason, the operator can grip the battery 51 through the notches 61g and 61g when attaching and detaching the battery 51, and the workability is good.

 また、リッド揺動支持部65,65は、リッド70の前後方向の端部において、タンク揺動支持部50に近い側の端部に設けられている。これにより、リッド揺動支持部65,65を介して開かれたリッド70によって燃料タンク35を支持している状態では、バッテリ51は、タンク揺動支持部50側とは反対側に露出する。このため、リッド70及び燃料タンク35が邪魔になり難く、バッテリ51にアクセスし易い。
 また、燃料タンク当接部75,75は、上面視で上方からメインフレーム16,16に重なる位置に設けられている。これにより、燃料タンク35の重量を、燃料タンク当接部75,75を介してメインフレーム16,16で効果的に受けることができる。
The lid 70 includes fuel tank abutting portions 75 and 75 at the end opposite to the side on which the lid swing support portions 65 and 65 are provided. Accordingly, the fuel tank 35 can be supported by the lid 70 at a position where the fuel tank 35 is greatly swung, and the battery 51 can be easily accessed.
In addition, the lid swing support portions 65 and 65 are provided at the end portion of the lid 70 in the front-rear direction and on the end portion close to the tank swing support portion 50. Thus, in a state where the fuel tank 35 is supported by the lid 70 opened via the lid swing support portions 65, 65, the battery 51 is exposed on the side opposite to the tank swing support portion 50 side. For this reason, the lid 70 and the fuel tank 35 are not easily obstructed, and the battery 51 is easily accessible.
Further, the fuel tank contact portions 75 and 75 are provided at positions overlapping the main frames 16 and 16 from above as viewed from above. Thereby, the weight of the fuel tank 35 can be effectively received by the main frames 16 and 16 via the fuel tank contact portions 75 and 75.
 また、本発明を適用した実施の形態によれば、自動二輪車1のバッテリ配置構造は、上面51aにプラス端子51p及びマイナス端子51nを備えるバッテリ51と、バッテリ51を収納するバッテリケース60と、バッテリ51をバッテリケース60に固定するバンド68とを備え、バンド68は、バッテリ51の上面51aを外側に露出させるバッテリケース60の開口61eに跨って設けられ、バンド68はプラス端子51pを覆う覆い部88を備え、マイナス端子51nに接続されるマイナス側ハーネス80nは、バンド68を覆う。
 この構成によれば、バンド68の覆い部88がプラス端子51pを覆うため、バンド68を取り外さなければプラス側ハーネス80pを取り外すことが困難である。また、バンド68は、マイナス側ハーネス80nに覆われるため、マイナス側ハーネス80nを取り外さなければバンド68を取り外すことが困難である。このため、マイナス側ハーネス80nをプラス側ハーネス80pよりも先に取り外すことを示唆することができる。
Moreover, according to the embodiment to which the present invention is applied, the battery arrangement structure of the motorcycle 1 includes a battery 51 having a positive terminal 51p and a negative terminal 51n on the upper surface 51a, a battery case 60 for storing the battery 51, and a battery. 51. The band 68 is provided across the opening 61e of the battery case 60 that exposes the upper surface 51a of the battery 51 to the outside, and the band 68 covers the plus terminal 51p. A negative harness 80n provided with 88 and connected to the negative terminal 51n covers the band 68.
According to this configuration, since the cover portion 88 of the band 68 covers the plus terminal 51p, it is difficult to remove the plus side harness 80p unless the band 68 is removed. Further, since the band 68 is covered with the minus side harness 80n, it is difficult to remove the band 68 unless the minus side harness 80n is removed. For this reason, it can be suggested that the minus side harness 80n is removed before the plus side harness 80p.
 また、バンド68は、その一端部及び他端部がバッテリケース60に固定され、バンドは、一端部に覆い部88を備え、他端部がマイナス側ハーネス80nに覆われている。これにより、バンド68は、バッテリケース60に固定されるバンド68の一端部に覆い部88を備えるため、覆い部88で強固にプラス端子51pを覆うことができる。また、バンド68は、バッテリケース60に固定される他端部がマイナス側ハーネス80nに覆われているため、バンド68の他端部が取り外されることをマイナス側ハーネス80nによって効果的に抑制できる。
 また、バンド68の他端部は、バッテリ51の上面51aに沿って延在するバンド本体部85から立設される側壁部89と、側壁部89から突出してバッテリケース60に係合する係合部90とを備え、側壁部89は、バッテリケース60に対する係合部90の差し込み方向で見た場合、マイナス側ハーネス80nに重なる。これにより、バッテリケース60に対する係合部90の差し込みを解除しようとする場合、マイナス側ハーネス80nが側壁部89の移動の邪魔になる。このため、マイナス側ハーネス80nを取り外す前にバンド68が取り外されることを防止できる。
Further, one end and the other end of the band 68 are fixed to the battery case 60, the band includes a cover 88 at one end, and the other end is covered by the negative harness 80n. Thereby, since the band 68 includes the cover portion 88 at one end portion of the band 68 fixed to the battery case 60, the cover portion 88 can firmly cover the plus terminal 51p. In addition, since the other end portion of the band 68 fixed to the battery case 60 is covered with the minus side harness 80n, the removal of the other end portion of the band 68 can be effectively suppressed by the minus side harness 80n.
The other end portion of the band 68 includes a side wall portion 89 standing from a band main body portion 85 extending along the upper surface 51 a of the battery 51, and an engagement projecting from the side wall portion 89 and engaging with the battery case 60. The side wall portion 89 overlaps the negative harness 80n when viewed in the direction in which the engaging portion 90 is inserted into the battery case 60. Thereby, when it is going to cancel | release insertion of the engaging part 90 with respect to the battery case 60, the negative | minus side harness 80n obstructs the movement of the side wall part 89. FIG. For this reason, it can prevent that the band 68 is removed before removing the minus side harness 80n.
 さらに、バッテリケース60は、バンド68の係合部90が係合する壁部81を備え、側壁部89は、マイナス側ハーネス80nと壁部81との間に位置している。これにより、壁部81及びマイナス側ハーネス80nによってバンド68の移動を強固に規制できる。
 また、バンド68は、スライドして壁部81に差し込まれ、プラス端子51pに接続されるプラス側ハーネス80pは、バンド68のスライド方向に沿って配索され、覆い部88は、スライド方向に開放部88aを備えるドーム状に形成されている。これにより、バンド68のスライドを可能としながら、ドーム状の覆い部88によってプラス側ハーネス80pを広く覆うことができる。また、プラス側ハーネス80pがバンド68のスライド方向に沿って配索されるため、バンド68がスライドする際に、プラス側ハーネス80pがバンド68の側壁部89の移動の邪魔になり難く、バンド68をスムーズにスライドさせることができる。
 また、バッテリ51は、上面51aがバッテリケース60の開口61eよりも深い位置に位置するように収納され、バッテリケース60は、バッテリ51の周壁部51bを露出させる切欠部61g,61gを備える。これにより、切欠部61g,61gを介してバッテリ51の周壁部51bにアクセスでき、バッテリ51をバッテリケース60から取り出し易い。
Further, the battery case 60 includes a wall portion 81 with which the engaging portion 90 of the band 68 is engaged, and the side wall portion 89 is located between the negative harness 80 n and the wall portion 81. Thereby, the movement of the band 68 can be firmly regulated by the wall portion 81 and the minus side harness 80n.
Further, the band 68 is slid and inserted into the wall portion 81, the plus side harness 80p connected to the plus terminal 51p is routed along the sliding direction of the band 68, and the cover portion 88 is opened in the sliding direction. It is formed in a dome shape having a portion 88a. Accordingly, the plus-side harness 80p can be widely covered by the dome-shaped cover portion 88 while allowing the band 68 to slide. Further, since the plus-side harness 80p is routed along the sliding direction of the band 68, the plus-side harness 80p hardly disturbs the movement of the side wall 89 of the band 68 when the band 68 slides. Can slide smoothly.
The battery 51 is housed so that the upper surface 51a is positioned deeper than the opening 61e of the battery case 60. The battery case 60 includes notches 61g and 61g that expose the peripheral wall portion 51b of the battery 51. Thereby, the peripheral wall 51b of the battery 51 can be accessed through the notches 61g and 61g, and the battery 51 can be easily taken out from the battery case 60.
