Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to vehicles. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a saddle-type vehicle that can accommodate wheels of different sizes without altering the dimensional characteristics of a frame of the saddle-type vehicle to maintain the ergonomic characteristics of the saddle-type vehicle.
BACKGROUND

Generally, a saddle-type vehicle such as a two-wheeled vehicle includes a frame, front shock absorbers, rear shock absorbers, a swing arm, and a pair of wheels including a front wheel and a rear wheel. The front shock absorbers are positioned between the front wheel and the frame. Further, the rear shock absorbers are positioned between the rear wheel and the frame. Thus, the front and the rear wheels are supported by the front and rear shock absorbers, respectively. The existing saddle-type vehicles are designed to support the wheels of specific diameters.
If the front wheel and/or the rear wheel with a different diameter is required to be installed in the existing saddle-type vehicle, the dimensions of the frame and other components associated with the frame, are required to be changed. The dimensions of the frame and other components are changed to maintain the dynamics of the vehicle, such that the comfort of the rider is not compromised. For different sets of wheels, separate manufacturing setups are required to be formed while manufacturing the saddle-type vehicle. This increases the steps of the manufacturing process which consumes more time and effort. The requirement of separate manufacturing setups for the different sets of wheels also increases the overall cost associated with manufacturing of the saddle-type vehicle.
Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned problems, it is desirable to provide a saddle-type vehicle that can eliminate one or more of the above-mentioned problems associated with the existing art.

Figure 1 illustrates a side view of a saddle-type vehicle 100, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figure 1, the saddle-type vehicle 100 includes a frame 102, a front supporting bracket 106, a pair of front shock absorbers 108, a swingarm 116, a rear supporting bracket 118, and a rear shock absorber 122. The saddle-type vehicle 100 may be capable of accommodating wheels of different sizes without changing the dimensional characteristics of the frame 102, the pair of front shock absorbers 108, the swingarm 116, and the rear shock absorber 122. The dimensional characteristics of the frame 102, the pair of front shock absorbers 108, the swingarm 116, and the rear shock absorber 122 may not be changed, such that the comfort of a rider may be maintained. Herein, the wheels may include a front wheel 110 and a rear wheel 120. In subsequent paragraphs, the saddle-type vehicle 100 may be interchangeably referred to as the vehicle 100, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
In an embodiment, the vehicle 100 may be an Electric Vehicle (EV) or a battery powered vehicle including, and not limited to two-wheelers such as scooters, mopeds, motorbikes/motorcycles; three-wheelers such as auto-rickshaws, four-wheelers such as cars and other Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) and Heavy Commercial Vehicles (HCVs) primarily work on the principle of driving an electric motor using the power from the batteries provided in the EV. Furthermore, the electric vehicle may have the at least one wheel 110, 120 which is electrically powered to traverse such a vehicle. The term ‘wheel’ may be referred to any ground-engaging member which allows traversal of the electric vehicle over a path. The types of EVs include Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) and Range Extended Electric Vehicle. However, the subsequent paragraphs pertain to the different elements of a Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV).
Generally, the transmission systems used in vehicle 100 include a single speed transmission system and multi-speed (i.e., two-speed) transmission system, wherein the single speed transmission system comprises a single gear pair whereby the EV is maintained at a constant speed. However, the multi-speed/two-speed transmission system comprises a compound planetary gear system with a double pinion planetary gear set and a single pinion planetary gear set thereby resulting in two different gear ratios which facilitate higher torque and vehicle speed.
The frame 102 may be adapted to support the components of the vehicle 100. The frame 102 may include, but is not limited to, a front section, a rear section, and a middle section extending between the front section and rear section. The front section includes the steering column 104, the front supporting bracket 106, the front wheel 110, a handlebar 128, and the pair of front shock absorbers 108. In the front section, the steering column 104 defines a steering axis ‘S’, and the front supporting bracket 106 may be coupled to one end of the steering column 104. The pair of front shock absorbers 108 may be positioned between the front wheel 110 and the steering column 104.
The rear section may be adapted to support the swingarm 116, a saddle 130, the rear wheel 120, and the rear shock absorber 122. The saddle 130 may be mounted on the rear section. In the rear section, the swingarm 116 may be coupled to the frame 102 and a center of the rear wheel 120. Further, the middle section extends between the front section and the rear section and may be adapted to mount a footboard 132 of the vehicle 100 thereon. The swingarm 116 may be mounted at a predefined angle ‘?S’. In an embodiment, the frame 102 may be formed of a metallic material, without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.
Figure 2(a) illustrates a side view of the saddle-type vehicle 100 depicting the wheels 110, 120 having a second diameter D2, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2(b) illustrates a side view of the saddle-type vehicle 100 depicting the wheels 110, 120 having a first diameter D1, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figures 2(a) and 2(b), the pair of front shock absorbers 108 may be coupled to the steering column 104 through the front supporting bracket 106, such that each front shock absorber 108 defines a central axis offset 112 (as shown in Figure 1) from the steering axis ‘S’ and passes through a center of the front wheel 110.
The offset 112 may be defined as a distance between a central axis of the front shock absorber 108 and the steering axis ‘S’. In an embodiment, the offset 112 may be a horizontal offset 112. The offset 112 may be varied based on at least one physical characteristic of the front wheel 110. At least one geometrical characteristic of the front supporting bracket 106 may be altered to attain different offsets based on the at least one physical characteristic of the front wheel 110 to maintain predefined values associated with a plurality of ergonomic characteristics of the vehicle 100.
The plurality of ergonomic characteristics may include, but is not limited to, an ergonomic triangle ‘E’, a trail ‘T’, and a motion ratio. As shown in Figures 2(a) and 2(b), the ergonomic triangle ‘E’ may be defined between a contact point on the handlebar 128, a contact point on the saddle 130, and a contact point on the footboard 132 of the vehicle 100 or on a ground surface G, based on a comfort of the rider driving the vehicle 100. The ergonomic triangles E are shown in Figures 2(a), and 2(b).
The trail ‘T’ may be defined between a contact point of the steering axis ‘S’ on the ground surface and a contact point of the front wheel 110 axis on the ground surface. The trail ‘T’ may be calculated based on the offset, a rake angle ‘?R’, and a radius of the front wheel 110, as shown in equation (1):
Trail=(Radius of wheel x (Sin(Rake angle)) - offset)/(Cos(Rake angle)) …..(1)

Further, the motion ratio may be defined based on a distance travelled by the rear shock absorber 122 and a distance travelled by the rear wheel 120. The motion ratio may be calculated based on the distance travelled by the rear shock absorber 122 and the distance travelled by the rear wheel 120 as shown in equation (2):
Motion Ratio=(Rear shock absorber travel )/(Wheel travel ) …….(2)

In an embodiment, at least one geometrical characteristic of the front supporting bracket 106 may be altered based on the at least one physical characteristic of the front wheel 110 to maintain dimensional characteristics of the frame 102 and the front shock absorbers 108. In an embodiment, the dimensional characteristic of the front shock absorbers 108 may be a length ‘L1’ (as shown in Figure 1) of the front shock absorbers 108. Further, at least one geometrical characteristic of the rear supporting bracket 118 may be altered based on the at least one physical characteristic of the rear wheel 120, the swingarm 116, and the rear shock absorber 122, respectively, to maintain dimensional characteristics of the frame 102, and the front shock absorbers 108.
The at least one physical characteristic of each of the front wheel 110 and the rear wheel 120 may be, but is not limited to, a diameter of the respective wheel. The diameter of each wheel 110, 120 may be defined as one of the first diameter D1 and the second diameter D2. Herein, the second diameter D2 is different from the first diameter D1. In an embodiment, the second diameter D2 is larger than the first diameter D1. The wheel 110, 120 having the first diameter D1, are shown in Figure 2(b), and the wheel 110, 120 having the second diameter D2, are shown in Figure 2(a). In an embodiment, the diameter of the wheels 110, 120 may be in range from 10 inches to 15 inches. In a non-limiting embodiment, the first diameter D1 may be 10 inches, and the second diameter D2 may be 15 inches. In an embodiment, the at least one physical characteristic of the rear shock absorber 122 may be, but is not limited to, a length ‘L2’ (as shown in Figure 1) of the rear shock absorber 122.
The at least one geometrical characteristic of the front supporting bracket 106 may be altered to vary the offset 112 based on the diameter of the front wheel 110, such that the predefined values associated with the trail ‘T’ and the ergonomic triangle ‘E’ of the vehicle 100 are maintained. In the subsequent paragraphs, the functional and constructional details of the front supporting bracket 106 and the rear supporting bracket 118 are explained.
In an embodiment, the front supporting bracket 106 may be positioned between a bottom end of the steering column 104 and a top end of each front shock absorber 108. The front supporting bracket 106 may include a base 124 (as shown in Figure 3(a)) and a protruded member 126 (as shown in Figure 3(a)). The base 124 may include an upper face and a bottom face opposite to the upper face. The bottom face may define a pair of engaging portions adapted to accommodate the top end of each front shock absorber 108. The protruded member 126 may extend from the upper face of the base 124. The protruded member 126 may be adapted to support the bottom end of the steering column 104.
In an embodiment, the geometrical characteristic of the front supporting bracket 106 may include a vertical distance between a top portion of the protruded member 126 and the top face of the base 124. Further, the geometrical characteristic of the front supporting bracket 106 may also include a lateral distance between a central axis of the protruded member 126 and a central axis of each engaging portion formed on the bottom face of the base 124.
Figure 3(a) illustrates a front view of the saddle-type vehicle 100, depicting a first front supporting bracket 106 attached to the front wheel 110 having the first diameter D1, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 3(b) illustrates a front view of the saddle-type vehicle 100, depicting a second front supporting bracket 106’ attached to the front wheel 110 having the second diameter D2, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figure 3(a), the front supporting bracket 106 may be the first front supporting bracket 106. If the front wheel 110 with the first diameter D1 is to be mounted to the frame 102, then the at least one geometrical characteristic of the first front supporting bracket 106 may be altered to define a first offset 112’ (as shown in Figure 2(b)) such that the predefined values associated with the trail ‘T’ and the ergonomic triangle ‘E’ may be maintained.
Referring to Figure 3(b), the front supporting bracket 106 may be the second front supporting bracket 106’. If the front wheel 110 with the second diameter D2 is to be mounted to the frame 102, then the at least one geometrical characteristic of the front supporting bracket 106’ may be altered to define a second offset 112’’ (as shown in Figure 2(a)), such that the predefined values associated with the trail ‘T’ and the ergonomic triangle ‘E’ are maintained.
Herein, the second offset 112’’ may be different from the first offset 112’. In an embodiment, the second offset 112’’ may be larger than the first offset 112’. As explained above, if the front wheel 110 with the first diameter D1 is to be mounted to the frame 102, the first offset 112’ may be increased to the second offset 112’’. On the other hand, if the front wheel 110 with the second diameter D2 is to be mounted to the frame 102, the second offset 112’’ may be decreased to the first offset 112’. Therefore, the wheels 110, 120 of the different diameters may be mounted in the vehicle 100 by varying the geometrical characteristic of the front supporting bracket 106. Herein, the dimensional characteristics of the frame 102, the pair of front shock absorbers 108, the swingarm 116, and the rear shock absorber 122 are not changed, and still, the overall comfort of the rider is maintained.
The geometrical characteristics of the first front supporting bracket 106 and the second front supporting bracket 106’ are different, as shown in Figure 4 which illustrates a comparison between the first front supporting bracket 106 attached to the front wheel 110 having the first diameter D1, and the second front supporting bracket 106’ attached to the front wheel 110 having the second diameter D2, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Herein, the vertical distance of the first front supporting bracket 106 is different from the vertical distance of the second front supporting bracket 106’. This difference creates a vertical offset ‘V’. In an embodiment, the vertical offset ‘V’ may be formed due to changes in the geometrical characteristics of the first front supporting bracket 106 and the second front supporting bracket 106’. In an embodiment, the vertical offset ‘V’ may be defined as a vertical displacement of the front supporting bracket 106, based on the at least one physical characteristic of the front wheel 110.
Figure 5 illustrates a side view of the front section of the saddle-type vehicle 100, depicting the first front supporting bracket 106 and the second front supporting bracket 106’, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 6(a) illustrates a side view of the saddle-type vehicle 100, depicting the first front supporting bracket 106 attached to the front wheel 110 having the first diameter D1, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 6(b) illustrates a side view of the saddle-type vehicle 100, depicting the second front supporting bracket 106’ attached to the front wheel 110 having the second diameter D2, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figures 5(a) and 6(a), the first front supporting bracket 106 may be used when the front wheel 110 with the first diameter D1 is to be mounted to the frame 102. The geometrical characteristics of the first front supporting bracket 106 may be varied based on the diameter D1 of the front wheel 110 to maintain the ergonomic characteristics of the vehicle 100.
As shown in Figure 6(b), the second front supporting bracket 106’ may be used when the front wheel 110 with the second diameter D2 is to be mounted to the frame 102. The geometrical characteristics of the second front supporting bracket 106’ may be varied based on the diameter D2 of the front wheel 110 to maintain the ergonomic characteristics of the vehicle 100.
In the subsequent paragraphs, the operational and constructional details of the rear supporting bracket 118 are explained with reference to Figure 7.
Figure 7 illustrates a side view of the rear section of the saddle-type vehicle, depicting the rear wheel having the first diameter D1 and the second diameter D2, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figures 2(a) and 7, the rear supporting bracket 118 may be positioned at the center of the rear wheel 120. The rear supporting bracket 118 may be adapted to couple the swingarm 116 with the rear shock absorber 122, such that an angle is defined between the swingarm 116 and the rear shock absorber 122. The angle is to be varied based on at least one physical characteristic of at least one of the rear wheel 120, the swingarm 116, and the rear shock absorber 122. The at least one geometrical characteristic of the rear supporting bracket 118 may be altered based on at least one physical characteristic of the rear wheel 120 to attain different angles, to maintain predefined values associated with the plurality of ergonomic characteristics of the vehicle 100.
In an embodiment, the at least one geometrical characteristic of the rear supporting bracket 118 may be altered to vary the angle defined between the swingarm 116 and the rear shock absorber 122 based on the diameter of the rear wheel 120, such that the predefined values associated with the motion ratio and the ergonomic triangle ‘E’ of the vehicle 100 are maintained.
The geometrical characteristic of the rear supporting bracket 118 is a length of the rear supporting bracket 118. The rear supporting bracket 118 may include a first end, and a second end opposite to the first end. The first end includes a first opening adapted to be aligned with a hole of the swingarm 116 to receive a fastener to couple an end of the rear supporting bracket 118 with the swingarm 116. The second end may be adapted to be aligned with a hole of the rear shock absorber 122 to receive a fastener to couple another end of the rear supporting bracket 118 with the rear shock absorber 122.
In an embodiment, the at least one geometrical characteristic of the rear supporting bracket 118 may be altered to define a first angle when the diameter of the rear wheel 120 is the first diameter D1, such that the predefined values associated with the motion ratio and the ergonomic triangle ‘E’ are maintained. If the rear wheel 120 with the first diameter D1 is to be mounted to the frame 102, then the rear supporting bracket 118 may be altered to the first angle.
If the rear wheel 120 with the second diameter D2 is to be mounted to the frame 102, then the at least one geometrical characteristic of the rear supporting bracket 118’ may be altered to define a second angle, such that the predefined values associated with the motion ratio and the ergonomic triangle ‘E’ may be maintained. Herein, the first angle is different from the second angle. In an embodiment, the first angle is larger than the second angle.
In the present disclosure, the front supporting bracket 106 may be modified by changing the at least one geometrical characteristic, to accommodate the front wheel 110 of different sizes, without changing the ergonomic characteristics and the dimensional characteristics of the vehicle 100. Further, the rear supporting bracket 118 may be modified by changing the at least one geometrical characteristic, to accommodate the rear wheel 120 of different sizes, without changing the ergonomic characteristics and the dimensional characteristics of the vehicle 100. Thus, the vehicle 100 may accommodate the wheels of the different diameters without changing the dimensional characteristics of the frame 102, the pair of front shock absorbers 108, the swingarm 116, and the rear shock absorber 122, such that the ergonomic characteristics such as the trail ‘T’, the ergonomic triangle ‘E’, and the motion ratio may be maintained.
The implementation of the vehicle 100 may eliminate the need to manufacture separate setups for different sets of wheels 110, 120 as the vehicle 100 provides a platform that may accommodate the wheels 110, 120 of different sizes. This reduces the steps of the manufacturing process which consumes less time and effort. Further, the overall cost associated with the manufacturing of the vehicle 100 may also be reduced. Therefore, the vehicle 100 may be cost-effective and flexible to accommodate the wheels of different diameters.
