The present invention relates to a light arrangement structure for scooter-type vehicle. [Technical Field] [0001] The present invention relates to a light arrangement structure for a scooter type vehicle. [Background Art] [0002] As a conventional light arrangement structure for a scooter type vehicle, it is known to arrange a winker on a front cover provided at the front of a vehicle (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [Patent Document 1] Japanese patent No. 3263823. [0003] Fig. 3 of patent document 1 will be described in the following using Fig. 10(a), and Fig. 4 of patent document 1 will be described using Fig. 10(b). Reference numerals have been changed. Fig. 10(a) and Fig. 10(b) are explanatory drawings showing a conventional scooter type vehicle. Fig. 10(a) is a side view of essential parts of a vehicle front, and shows a scooter type vehicle having flashers 203 and 204 inclined rearwards, having a headpipe for supporting a front fork in a steerable manner covered by a front cover 201 and a rear cover 202, the front cover 201 comprising an upper cover section 206 provided with flashers 203, 204 as left and right winkers (only the front side reference numeral 203 is shown) and a lower cover section 208 forming an overhanging section. [0004] Fig. 10(b) is a front elevation, and shows left and right cut-away sections 211, 212 formed in a lower part of the upper cover section 206, and an upper part of the lower cover section 208 made to run along a lower section of the upper cover section 206, with flashers 203, 204 arranged in light attachment sections 214, 215 formed by the cut-away sections 211, 212 of the upper cover section 206 and the lower cover section 208. Reference numeral 217 is a flasher attachment cover arranged between the left and right flashers 203, 204. [0005] In Fig. 10(a) and Fig. 10(b), since the flashers 203 and 204 are provided in the upper cover section 206, for example, when a part such as a basket or a luggage carrier is arranged as a container at the front of the upper cover section 206, there is a size restriction on that part in order to ensure visibility for the flashers 203, 204, and so the amount that can be stored in the basket or loaded in the luggage carrier is limited. That is, the space in which the basket or luggage carrier can be arranged is limited. Also, the flashers 203 and 204 should preferably have high visibility. [Disclosure of the Invention] [Problems to be solved by the Invention] [0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a light arrangement structure for a scooter type vehicle that enlarges space for arranging a basket or luggage carrier etc. at the front of a front cover, and also increases visibility of winkers. [Means of Solving the Problems] [0007] The invention of claim 1 is, in a scooter type vehicle having a front of a headpipe covered by a front cover and a side of the headpipe covered by a front side cover arranged along a lower edge of the front cover, characterized by the fact that there is a chevron-shaped winker, shaped projecting forwards, arranged at a front section of the front cover, looking from the side. [0008] The winker is arranged in a front section of the front side cover so that, for example, compared to providing the winker in a front cover, a space for arranging a basket or luggage carrier is made large. Also, the winker is a chevron shape, looking from the side, and elongated vertically, increasing visibility of the winker from the front. [0009] The invention of claim 2 has the winker contacting the front cover at an inclined upper edge of the chevron shape. Because the upper edge of the chevron shaped winker and the front cover are in contact, the winker is arranged to the front side cover side, and an upper edge of the winker rising upward to the rear is made higher. Also, the upper edge of the winker and the lower edge of the front cover are contiguous, and it is possible to incline downwards to the front, giving an outward appearance from the side of being speedy. [0010] With the invention of claim 3, looking at the side, a lower end of the front cover and an upper end of a front fender, attached to a front fork supporting a front wheel in a steerable manner, for covering above the front wheel, are positioned at substantially the same height as a front end of the winker. [0011] The front fender is a movable type moving to the left and right together with the front fork, which means that it is possible to have a gap at a section surrounded by the front fender, the front cover and left and right side covers, but with the present invention, a lower end of the front cover and an upper end of the front fender are at substantially the same height as the front end of the winker, and it is possible to make the gap smaller. [0012] With the invention of claim 4, looking at the side, a front edge of the winker is formed in a shape contiguous to a front edge of the front side cover, while a rear edge of the winker is formed in a shape running along a rear edge of the front side cover, and looking at the front, a lower edge of the front cover and an inner edge of the winker trace a curved line forming a substantially M-shape. [0013] Looking at the side, a front edge of the winker is contiguous to the front edge of the front side cover, while a rear edge of the winker runs along a rear edge of the front side cover, and looking at the front, a lower edge of the front cover and an lower edge of the winker trace a curved line forming a substantial M-shape, thus giving the impression that the winker, the front cover and the front side cover are integrated. [0014] The invention of claim 5 has a front basket arranged in front of the front cover, the winker arranged further down than this front basket, and a headlamp attached to a handle cover that is higher up than the front cover and covers a handle. [0015] By arranging the winker further down than the basket and attaching the headlamp to the handle cover, it becomes possible to arrange the basket in the entire space in front of the front cover. [Effects of the invention] [0016] With the invention of claim 1, by arranging the winker at a front section of the front side cover, for example, compared to when the winker is provided in the front cover, it is possible to make the space in front of the front cover larger, and it is possible to arrange a large basket or luggage carrier etc. Also, since looking from the side the chevron shaped winker is elongated vertically, it is possible to increase visibility of the winker from the front. [0017] With the invention of claim 2, since the upper edge of the chevron shape of the winker and the front cover are in contact, the winker is arranged to the front side cover side, and it is possible to cause the upper rearwardly rising edge of the winker to be arranged higher up, and it is possible to significantly improve visibility. Also, the upper edge of the winker and the lower edge of the front cover are contiguous, and it is possible to incline downwards to the front, making it possible to give an outward appearance from the side of being speedy, it is possible to give an attractive outward appearance, and it is possible to improve the marketability of a scooter type vehicle. [0018] With the invention of claim 3, looking from the side the lower end of the front cover and the upper end of the front fender are at substantially the same height as the front end of the winder, so that it is possible to make a gap enclosed by the front fender, the front cover and the left and right front side covers smaller. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce sucking in of traveling air, and it is possible to improve the external appearance from the front of the vehicle. [0019] With the invention of claim 4, looking at the side, a front edge of the winker is contiguous to the front edge of the front side cover, while a rear edge of the winker runs along a rear edge of the front side cover, and looking at the front, a lower edge of the front cover and inner edges of'the left and right winkers trace a curved line forming a substantial M-shape, thus giving the impression that the winker, the front cover and the front side cover are integrated, it is possible to give a cohesive external appearance, and it is possible to improve the marketability of a scooter type vehicle. [0020] With the invention of claim 5, by arranging the winker further down than the basket and attaching the headlamp to the handle cover, it is possible to arrange the basket in the entire space in front of the front cover, winker visibility is ensured, it is possible to make the capacity of a basket larger, and it is possible to improve usability of a scooter type vehicle.

[0042] In this way, by forming the winkers 15, 16 in a chevron shape looking from the side, it is possible to make the winkers 15, 16 large in the vertical direction, for example, compared to a winker that is small in the vertical direction in the case where the winker is arranged inclined to the rear of the vehicle, with the present invention it is possible to increase visibility of the winkers 15, 16 from the front of the vehicle. Further, by forming the winkers 15, 16 in a chevron shape, it is possible to make the winkers small in the front to rear direction, it is possible to make the front side covers small in the front to rear direction, and it is possible to make the front of the scooter type vehicle 10 (refer to Fig. 1) small and compact. [0043] Fig. 8 is a front elevation showing a cover type forming a front part of the scooter type vehicle to which the present invention relates, and shows a curved line continuously forming a substantial M-shape traced by the lower edge 11a of the front cover 11 and the inner edge of the winkers 15, 16, and a V-shaped ridge linellc, looking from the front, formed in the front cover 11, with roughly vertically elongated openings 17, 18 having a streamlined outline are provided running along the ridge line lie. Reference numeral 155 is an attachment hole formed in an upper central part of the front cover 11 for attachment of the front basket 83 (refer to Fig. 6). [0044] In this way, by forming the left and right opening sections 17, 18 running along the ridge line lie and in a streamlined shape, with the front basket 83 not attached it is possible to give a sharp impression to the front section of the scooter type vehicle 10 (refer to Fig. 2). [0045] Also, in Fig. 7, looking from the side, by making the lower end lib of the front cover 11 and the upper end 34a of the front fender 34 substantially the same height as apexes 15d, 16d of the winkers 15, 16, is possible to make a gap shown in Fig. 8 and enclosed by the front fender 34, the front cover 11 and the left and right front side covers 12, 31 smaller. [0046] Fig. 9 is a plan view showing a cover type forming a front part of the scooter type vehicle to which the present invention relates, and shows winkers 15, 16 arranged so as to protrude outwards from a ridge line lid of the front cover 11 that curves in a convex manner to the front of the vehicle. In this way, by causing the winkers 15, 16 to protrude outwards from the ridge line lid of the front cover 11, it is possible to confirm which direction the winkers are indicating from the front of the vehicle, off to the side of the vehicle at the front, or at the side of the vehicle. [0047] As described above with Fig. 6, Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, the present invention is, firstly, in a scooter type vehicle 10 (refer to Fig. 1) having a front of a headpipe 76 covered by a front cover 11 and a side of the headpipe 76 covered by front side covers 12, 13 arranged along a lower edge of the front cover 11, where there are chevron-shaped winkers 15, 16, shaped projecting forwards, arranged at a front section of the front side covers 12, 13, looking from the side. [0048] By arranging the winkers 15, 16 at a front section of the front side covers 12, 13, for example, compared to when the winkers are provided in the front cover, it is possible to make the space in front of the front cover 11 larger, and it is possible to arrange a large front basket 83 or luggage carrier etc. Also, since, looking from the side, the chevron shaped winkers 15, 16 are elongated vertically, it is possible to increase visibility of the winkers 15, 16 from the front. [0049] Secondly, the present invention has the winkers 15, 16 contacting the front cover 11 at inclined upper edges 15a, 16a of the chevron shape. Since the upper edges 15a, 16a of the chevron shape of the winkers 15, 16 and the front cover 11 are in contact, even if the winkers 15, 16 are arranged to the front side cover 12, 13 side, being positions that are lower than the front cover 11, it is possible to cause the upper rearwardly rising edges 15a, 16a, specifically rear sections of the upper edges 15a, 16a, of the winkers 15, 16 to be arranged higher up, and it is possible to significantly improve visibility. Also, the upper edges 15a, 16a of the winkers 15, 16 and the lower edge 11a of the front cover 11 are contiguous, and it is possible to incline them downwards to the front, making it possible to give an outward appearance from the side of being speedy, it is possible to give an attractive outward appearance, and it is possible to improve the marketability of a scooter type vehicle 10. [0050] Thirdly, looking from the side, the present invention has a lower end lib of the front cover 11 and an upper end 34a of a front fender 34, attached to a front fork 77 (refer to Fig. 2) supporting a front wheel 29 in a steerable manner, for covering above the front wheel 29 (refer to Fig. 2), are positioned at substantially the same height as apexes, being front ends of the winkers 15, 16. [0051] Looking from the side, by making the lower end lib of the front cover 11 and the upper end 34a of the front fender 34 substantially the same height as apexes 15d, 16d of the winkers 15, 16, is possible to make a gap enclosed by the front fender 34, the front cover 11 and the left and right front side covers 12, 13 smaller. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce involution of traveling air, and it is possible to improve the external appearance from the front of the vehicle. Further, looking from the side, a lower part of the front cover 11, apexes 15d, 16d of the winkers 15, 16, and an upper part of the front fender 34 form a concave shape, which means that when looking from one direction of the vehicle to another direction, it is easy to see the other winker 15 (or winker 16). [0052] Fourthly, with the present invention, looking at the side, front edges 15b, 16b of the winkers 15, 16 are formed in a shape contiguous to front edges 12b, 13b of the front side covers 12, 13, while rear edges 15c, 16c of the winkers are formed in a shape running along rear edges 12c, 13c of the front side covers 12, 13, and looking at the front, a lower edge 11a of the front cover 11 and inner edges 15a, 16e of the winkers 15, 16 trace a curved line forming a substantially M-shape. [0053] Looking at the side, front edges 15b, 16b of the winkers 15, 16 are contiguous to the front edges 12b, 13b of the front side covers 12, 13, while rear edges 15c, 16c of the winkers 15, 16 run along rear edges 12c, 13c of the front side covers 2, 13, and looking at the front, a lower edge 11a of the front cover 11 and inner edges 15e, 16e of the left and right winkers 15, 16 trace a curved line forming a substantial M-shape, thus giving the impression that the winkers 15, 16, the front cover 11 and the front side covers 12, 13 are integrated, it is possible to give a cohesive external appearance, and it is possible to improve the marketability of a scooter type vehicle 10.
