Patent number: 10745073Abstract: Provided is a straddle-type seat configured to prevent a cover member from being detached and to increase a crime prevention property. The cover member is configured to close a through hole formed on a seat surface. The seat is configured to support a seated occupant in a straddle state and includes a seat main body on which the occupant sits, and a cover member that covers the through hole formed in the seat main body. The cover member includes a lid portion that closes the through hole on a top surface of the seat main body, and a downward extension portion that downwardly extends from the lid portion. The downward extension portion is locked to a T-like shape protrusion formed on a bottom surface of the seat main body.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2018Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignees: TS Tech Co., Ltd., Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kazuhiro Tsurumi, Ryuji Isobe, Kosuke Maeda, Shinichiro Motoda, Gen Tanabe
