Abstract

A windshield motor gear is provided. The windshield motor gear includes a semi-circular mass and a cuboid mass forming an integrated structure of the windshield motor gear, wherein the semi-circular mass is centrally disposed along a first side of the cuboid mass. The semi-circular mass has a concentrically disposed threaded hole. The cuboid mass includes a plurality vertical through-holes communicating said first side to an opposing second side of the cuboid mass, wherein at least one vertical through holes is disposed on both sides of the semi-circular mass; and a plurality horizontal through-holes communicating opposing third and fourth sides of the cuboid mass, wherein at least one vertical through holes is disposed on both sides of the semi-circular mass; and threads of the threaded hole enable the motor gear to be attached to a windshield motor assembly.

Claims (12)

1 . A windshield motor gear comprising:

a semi-circular mass and a cuboid mass forming an integrated structure of the windshield motor gear, wherein the semi-circular mass is centrally disposed along a first side of the cuboid mass:

the semi-circular mass has a concentrically disposed threaded hole;

the cuboid mass comprising:

a plurality of vertical through-holes communicating said first side to an opposing second side of the cuboid mass, wherein at least one of said plurality of vertical through holes is disposed on both sides of the semi-circular mass; and

a plurality of horizontal through-holes communicating opposing third and fourth sides of the cuboid mass, wherein at least one of said plurality of vertical through holes is disposed on both sides of the semi-circular mass; and

threads of the threaded hole enable the motor gear to be attached to a windshield motor assembly.

2 . The windshield motor gear of claim 1 , further comprising wherein the mass of the cuboid mass and the semi-circular mass is billet aluminum.

3 . The windshield motor gear of claim 2 , further comprising a bottom slot along the second side of the cuboid mass.

4 . The windshield motor gear of claim 3 , wherein the windshield motor gear has bilateral symmetry.

5 . The windshield motor gear of claim 3 , wherein the billet aluminum enables a thread pitch of the threads to be selectively modified to match a windshield motor assembly.

6 . A method of improving a powered windshield motor assembly of a motorcycle, the method comprising replacing the original equipment manufacturer gear for the powered windshield assembly with the windshield motor gear of claim 1 .
