Patent number: 9644736Abstract: A gear changer of a power transmitting device includes an input shaft to which a rotational force is inputted from an engine, an output shaft for outputting the rotational force to a rear wheel, and a plurality of speed change gear pairs for transmitting the rotational force from the input shaft to the output shaft. A slider member for selecting one of the speed change gear pairs to transmit the rotational force from the input shaft to the output shaft is supported by the output shaft. Selection of one of the speed change gear pairs is accomplished by moving the slider member in an axial direction by means of a shifter mechanism. A pump rotary shaft, to which the rotation is transmitted from the input shaft, is disposed at a location between the input shaft and the shifter mechanism in a circumferential direction of the output shaft.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2014Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: KAWASAKI JUKOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Atsushi Senda, Yoshinobu Tanaka, Yoshiharu Matsuda

Patent number: 9499226Abstract: An exhaust pipe side covering has a rear portion supported by a muffler or an exhaust pipe of an exhaust device and also has a front portion supported by a motorcycle body through a bracket, thereby covering the exhaust pipe from outside. A projecting piece projecting inwardly of a motorcycle widthwise direction is formed in an inner side surface of a front portion of a main body of the exhaust pipe side covering and a screw insertion hole is formed in the vicinity of a projecting piece in the main body. The bracket is formed with a plug-in hole, with which the projecting piece is engaged by plugging in, and a threaded hole. A mounting screw member is engaged in the threaded hole through the screw insertion hole. The section of the projecting piece transverse to a projecting direction thereof is of an elongated shape.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2015Date of Patent: November 22, 2016Assignee: KAWASAKI JUKOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Atsushi Senda

Patent number: 9482138Abstract: In an exhaust device in a motorcycle including an article storage pannier at a side portion of a rear portion of the motorcycle, a rear end surface of a muffler which discharges exhaust gas to the outside is located frontward of a front end surface of the pannier, and an outlet pipe of the muffler is curved such that the exhaust gas is discharged to a region below the pannier. An axis of the muffler is inclined so as to extend rearward and upward. A plurality of the outlet pipes are aligned vertically, and the upper outlet pipe is curved.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2015Date of Patent: November 1, 2016Assignee: KAWASAKI JUKOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Toshiyuki Tsubone, Atsushi Senda
