Abstract

A tilting and support kit for at least one luggage of a motorcycle including a support frame adapted to be associated with a frame of the motorcycle. The support frame includes at least two tubular elements, a first tubular element and a second tubular element, a support mounted with the support frame and adapted to be separably engaged with the at least one luggage, at least one tilting device including a support base mounted with the at least one luggage and at least a hook-shaped element including at least one spacer arm including a first end hinged with the support base and a second end which includes a hook portion adapted to hook the first tubular element. The at least a hook-shaped element is adapted to rotate hinged from an unhooking position to a hooking position.

Dependent claims

A tilting and support kit for at least one luggage of a motorcycle, said tilting and support kit comprising:

a support frame adapted to be associated with a frame of said motorcycle, wherein said support frame comprises at least two portions, a first portion and a second portion, wherein said first portion is spaced from said second portion, wherein said first portion is disposed along a first geometrical axis and said second portion is disposed along a second geometrical axis, wherein said first geometrical axis is parallel to said second geometrical axis;
support means which are adapted to separably engage said support frame and said at least one luggage, wherein said support means comprise at least a first support means adapted to engage said first portion of said support frame and a first portion of said at least one luggage corresponding to said first portion of said support frame and at least a second support means adapted to engage said second portion of said support frame and a second portion of said at least one luggage corresponding to said second portion of said support frame;
and
at least one tilting device comprising a support base and at least one hook-shaped element, wherein said at least one hook-shaped element comprises at least one spacer arm comprising a first end hinged with said support base and a second end which comprises a hook portion adapted to hook said first portion of said support frame to said first portion of said at least one luggage, said at least one hook-shaped element being adapted to rotate hinged from an unhooking position to a hooking position,
said unhooking position of said at least one hook-shaped element provides that said hook portion unhooks said first portion of said support frame from said first portion of said at least one luggage,
said hooking position of said at least one hook-shaped element provides that said hook portion hooks said first portion of said support frame to said first portion of said at least one luggage,
said tilting and support kit being adapted to pass from a travel configuration to a tilted configuration,
said travel configuration of said tilting and support kit provides that said at least a first support means and said at least a second support means engage said at least one luggage with said support frame and that said hook-shaped element of said tilting device is in said unhooking position,
said tilted configuration of said tilting and support kit provides that said at least a first support means disengages said first portion of said at least one luggage from said first portion of said support frame, that said at least a second support means engages said second portion of said at least one luggage with said second portion of said support frame, that said at least one luggage is tilted of an angle relative to a third geometrical axis and that said hook-shaped element is in said hooking position, wherein said third geometrical axis is coplanar to a geometrical plane passing through said first geometrical axis and through said second geometrical axis, wherein said third geometrical axis is perpendicular to said first and said second geometrical axis,
wherein said first end of said at least one spacer arm of said at least one tilting device is hinged with said support base by means of a first pin,
wherein said pin is disposed along a fourth geometrical axis, wherein said fourth geometrical axis is parallel to said first geometrical axis,
wherein said at least one tilting device comprises a lever rotatably mounted with said support base by means of a second pin that identifies a rotation axis perpendicular to the first pin,
wherein said lever comprises a handleable first end and a cam-shaped second end,
wherein the cam-shaped second end eccentrically hinges said second pin,
wherein said first end of said at least one spacer arm of said at least one tilting device comprises a contact portion in contact with said cam-shaped second end of said lever,
wherein said lever passes from a first position wherein a distance between the second pin and said contact portion is maximum, to a second position wherein said distance between the second pin and said contact portion is minimum,
wherein said first position of the lever corresponds to said unhooking position of said at least one hook-shaped element, and
wherein said second position of the lever corresponds to said hooking position of said at least one hook-shaped element.
