[0002] A forklift is a handling and stacking tool with a relatively high usage frequency in the logistics industry, and it completes short-distance transportation, loading and unloading, and stacking under the driving and control of an operator. As a crucial component in a forklift for upward movement of personnel, the cab plays a bridging role in connecting components such as the mast and the front auxiliary mast, and at the same time is the activity space for the operator. Therefore, the cab has very high requirements for the rationality of the structural design and strength. The cab not only needs to control the weight but also meet the high-strength requirements.

[0003] In the prior art, forklifts cannot meet the dual requirements of weight and high strength. At the same time, since the cab is the activity space for the driver for a long time, an unreasonable structure will reduce the driving experience and the driving safety factor.
