Abstract:
A drive assistance device (24) for a saddle type vehicle (1) includes a ride sensor (37) configured to detect a ride attitude of a rider, a vehicle body behavior generating part (25) configured to generate a behavior on a vehicle body by a prescribed output, and a controller (27) configured to control driving of the vehicle body behavior generating part (25), and wherein, when the vehicle body behavior generating part (25) is actuated regardless of the operation of the rider, the controller (27) firstly controls the vehicle body behavior generating part (25) such that a low output that is lower than a predetermined original target output is generated as a predictive action, and sets an output value after that according to a change of detection information of the ride sensor (37) generated by the low output.
Abstract:
A vehicle body includes a vehicle body frame and a steering rotation unit that is supported on the vehicle body frame and that rotates about a steering axis. The vehicle includes a variable trail length mechanism. The variable trail length mechanism varies a trail length of a front wheel and includes an oscillation unit and a torsion reduction portion. The oscillation unit is connected with the steering rotation unit so as to be oscillatable in a fore-aft direction and supports the front wheel. The torsion reduction portion reduces torsion of the oscillation unit in a vehicle width direction through the oscillation unit combined with the steering rotation unit under a condition in which the trail length is changed such that the front wheel is disposed at a rearmost position.
Abstract:
A straddle type vehicle comprises a steering mechanism configured to steer a front wheel a steering damper device capable of variably generating a damping force working on a rotating action of the steering mechanism; and a control unit configured to control the damping force of the steering damper device to increase, when the front wheel of the straddle type vehicle in a wheelie state lands on a ground. The control unit controls the damping force to increase, after the front wheel lands on the ground and an oscillation occurs in the steering mechanism.
Abstract:
A personal digital assistant attachment structure is used for a saddle-ride vehicle and removably attaches a personal digital assistant including a display screen to a vehicle body. The attachment structure includes a terminal holder that includes a connector cord and a supported portion and is provided separately from the vehicle body. The supported portion includes a cord holder and a holder terminal. The cord holder holds the connector cord and the holder terminal is connected to the second end of the connector cord, A holder support, which is provided integrally with the vehicle body, is removably engaged with the supported portion to support the terminal holder, and includes a vehicle-body-side terminal. The vehicle-body-side terminal is removably connected to the holder terminal during engagement of the supported portion.
Abstract:
A drive assistance device (24) for a saddle type vehicle (1) includes a ride sensor (37) configured to detect a ride attitude of a rider (J), a vehicle body behavior generating part (25) configured to generate a behavior on a vehicle body by a prescribed output, and a controller (27) configured to control driving of a plurality of devices (BR, EN, ST) included in the vehicle body behavior generating part (25), and, when at least one of the plurality of devices (BR, EN, ST) is actuated regardless of the operation of the rider (J), the controller (27) determines which of the plurality of devices (BR, EN, ST) is to be actuated according to the ride attitude of the rider (J) detected by the ride sensor (37).
Abstract:
This driving support device of a saddle-riding type vehicle includes: an external detection means (29) that detects a situation around the vehicle; a steering device (ST) that steers an own vehicle; and a control means (27) that controls drive of the steering device (ST), wherein the control means (27) operates the steering device (ST) according to the situation around the vehicle detected by the external detection means (29) regardless of an operation of a rider (J) and moves a traveling trajectory in a lane width direction within a lane in which the own vehicle is traveling.

Abstract:
A steering assist device that appropriately controls swaying of a vehicle body while a rider is walking by pushing the vehicle body by the hands and thereby eliminates the anxiety of the rider about the support of the vehicle body. A steering assist device includes a steering actuator that provides an assist torque that generates a steering angle of a steered wheel to a suspension device that supports the steered wheel; roll angle detector that detects a roll angle of a vehicle body; and controller that controls the assist torque provided by the steering actuator based on the roll angle of the vehicle body and a target roll angle. The controller sets the roll angle of when the vehicle body is inclined from an upright state to the target roll angle.

Abstract:
A collection and delivery support system for a saddle-ride type electric vehicle includes a managing terminal that outputs information of registered collection/delivery destinations of cargos and information on battery charging locations arranged within a collection/delivery range of the vehicle, a server that calculates a collection/delivery route passing through respective collection and delivery destinations in order based on a possible traveling distance of the vehicle, and a mobile terminal provided with the vehicle. The server calculates the route such that it includes a battery charging location in the middle thereof, as well as estimated collection/delivery times based on the possible traveling distance information. The display displays information of the calculated route and the estimated collection/and delivery times.
