A device includes a battery case () that stores a battery (A orB), a lock mechanism () that is capable of fixing and holding the stored battery (A orB) in the battery case (), and an operation member () that is capable of performing switching operation of the lock mechanism () between a battery-fixed state and a non-battery-fixed state. The lock mechanism () includes a movable block () which is supported by the battery case () in a displaceable manner. The movable block () has a battery restriction portion (or) which restricts displacement of the battery (A orB) in a separation direction in a state of being displaced to a battery fixing position, and a holding force receiving portion () which receives a holding force for maintaining the movable block () at the battery fixing position from the operation member () in a state where the operation member () is operated within a predetermined positional range.

Battery storage device of vehicle

To provide a rear shock absorber arrangement structure for a motorcycle having no limitation on the arrangement flexibility and shape of a storage chamber. In a rear shock absorber arrangement structure for a motorcycle, including a unit swing type power unit U swingably connected to a body frame F and rotatably supporting a rear wheel WR, a rear shock absorber suspends the power unit from the body frame F. A storage chamber is disposed above the rear wheel WR. A lower end of the rear shock absorber is brought into connection at a position lower than the wheel-axle O provided in the power unit U as viewed from the side of the vehicle. An upper end of the rear shock absorber is connected to a portion lower than the storage chamber and near a bottom portion of the storage chamber.
