Steering arm structure of outboard motor
An outboard motor is steerably mounted to a hull via a bracket and a steering arm is mounted to a steering bracket unit attached to the outboard motor. The steering arm includes a shift grip as a shift operating unit, a throttle grip as a throttle operating unit and a throttle adjusting knob as a throttle adjusting operating unit. These units are adjacently disposed in the described order in a forward direction of a hull.
1. A steering arm structure of an outboard motor steerably mounted to a hull via a bracket, in which a steering arm is mounted to a steering bracket unit attached to the outboard motor, the steering arm comprising:
a shift operating unit;
a throttle operating unit; and
a throttle adjusting operating unit which are adjacently disposed in the described order along an advancing direction of the hull,
wherein the shift operating unit, the throttle operating unit and the throttle adjusting operating unit are disposed coaxially on a common rotation axis.
2. The steering arm structure of the outboard motor according to claim 1 , wherein the steering arm further includes a steering adjusting operating unit disposed adjacently to the throttle adjusting operating unit.
3. The steering arm structure of the outboard motor according to claim 2 , wherein the steering adjusting operating unit is disposed coaxially on a common rotation axis of the throttle adjusting operating unit.
4. The steering arm structure of the outboard motor according to claim 1 , wherein the throttle adjusting operating unit has a rotation axis that is offset from a rotation axis of the throttle operating unit.
5. A steering arm structure of an outboard motor steerably mounted to a hull via a bracket, in which a steering arm is mounted to a steering bracket unit attached to the outboard motor, the steering arm comprising:
a shift operating unit;
a throttle operating unit; and
a throttle adjusting operating unit which are adjacently disposed in the described order along an advancing direction of the hull,
wherein the shift operating unit includes a shift grip, the throttle operating unit includes a throttle grip, and the throttle adjusting operating unit includes a throttle adjusting knob, the shift grip, the throttle grip and the throttle adjust knob being arranged to be rotatable, and the steering arm further includes a steering adjusting operating unit including a steering adjusting knob rotatably disposed adjacent to the throttle adjusting knob.
