It should be understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are used in the present invention to describe various information, but such information should not be limited to these terms, which are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the present invention, the "first" information may also be referred to as the "second" information, and similarly, the "second" information may also be referred to as the "first" information.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a preferred embodiment of a forklift transfer bucket of the present invention comprises:

[0036] The support base 1 is provided with a groove at the lower end thereof, and the groove is used for inserting the fork of a forklift so that the fork can lift the support base 1; in this embodiment, the support base 1 includes a bottom plate 11, a first cylinder 12 and a second cylinder 13, the first cylinder 12 and the second cylinder 13 are fixed at intervals at the lower end of the bottom plate 11, and the cylinder cavity of the first cylinder 12 and the cylinder cavity of the second cylinder 13 form a groove. The support base 1 also includes a plurality of support legs 14, each support leg 14 is arranged at intervals around the lower end edge of the bottom plate 11, and the first cylinder 12 and the second cylinder 13 are arranged at the middle of the lower end of the bottom plate 11.

[0037] A hopper 2, the hopper 2 is arranged on the support base 1, and a lower end of a first side of the hopper 2 is hinged to the first side of the support base 1;

[0038] A flexible connector 3, which is used to fix the hopper 2 on the support base 1, and is also used to pull the hopper 2 to flip; a first end of the flexible connector 3 is fixedly connected to the second side of the hopper 2, and a second end of the flexible connector 3 is detachably connected to the second side of the support base 1;

[0039] The second end of the flexible connector 3 is connected to the second side of the support seat 1, and the flexible connector 3 pulls the second side of the hopper 2 to fix the hopper 2 on the support seat 1; the second end of the flexible connector 3 is removed from the second side of the support seat 1, and the flexible connector 3 is pulled toward the first side of the hopper 2, and the flexible connector 3 drives the hopper 2 to flip. After unloading, the hopper 2 is flipped again to reset the hopper 2 to the support seat 1; therefore, during the unloading process, the transfer hopper does not need to be removed from the fork, and it is convenient to flip the hopper 2, thereby improving the material transfer efficiency.

[0040] In this embodiment, the flexible connector 3 includes a push rod 31 and a first flexible connector 32 fixed to a first end of the push rod 31, the other end of the first flexible connector 32 is fixed to the upper portion of the second side of the support seat 1, and the second end of the push rod 31 is detachably connected to the second side of the support seat 1. Specifically, the first flexible connector 32 can be a rope or a chain. The first flexible connector 32 is provided at the end of the push rod 31, so that a flexible connection node can be formed between the push rod 31 and the hopper 2. The existence of the flexible connection node enables the angle between the push rod 31 and the hopper 2 to be flexibly changed, such as Figure 3 As shown, when the push rod 31 is connected to the support seat 1, the push rod 31 can apply a pulling force to the first flexible connector 32, so that the first flexible connector 32 pulls the hopper 2 to keep the hopper 2 stable on the support seat 1. After the push rod 31 is removed from the support seat 1, the operator stands outside the second side of the hopper 2 and pushes the push rod 31 upward. The push rod 31 can drive the first flexible connector 32 to pull the upper part of the hopper 2 toward the first side of the support seat 1, so that the hopper 2 is turned around the hinge axis to the outside of the first side of the support seat 1 to achieve unloading. The setting of the push rod 31 enables the operator to stand on the non-discharging side of the hopper 2 to turn the hopper 2, and the operator does not need to stand on the discharging side of the hopper 2, which avoids the waste from being poured out of the hopper 2. In other embodiments of the present invention, the flexible connector 3 can be set as a rope body as a whole, and the rope body is set longer. When unloading, the operator moves to the discharging side of the hopper 2 and pulls the flexible connector 3 to turn the hopper 2 over.

[0041] If the first flexible connector 32 is set too long, it is not conducive to the push rod 31 to be transmitted to the hopper 2 in time. If the first flexible connector is set too short, the angle and freedom of movement of the push rod 31 will be small. In this embodiment, the length of the first flexible connector 32 is greater than or equal to 50 mm and less than or equal to 100 mm. It is ensured that the push rod 31 can change its angle flexibly and the movement of the push rod 31 can be smoothly transmitted to the hopper 2, which is convenient for the flipping operation of the hopper 2.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first flexible connecting member 32 is a chain, one end of the chain is fixed to the push rod 31 , and the other end of the chain is fixed to the hopper 2 .

[0043] In order to facilitate the resetting of the hopper 2 after the unloading is completed, in this embodiment, the flexible connector 3 also includes a second flexible connector 33, one end of the second flexible connector 33 is fixed to the second end of the push rod 31, and the other end of the second flexible connector 33 is detachably connected to the second side of the support seat 1. Specifically, when unloading, the operator first drives the first flexible connector 32 to overturn the hopper 2 through the push rod 31. As the hopper 2 turns over, the push rod 31 will move with the hopper 2. Therefore, the operator standing outside the second side of the support seat 1 can no longer hold the push rod 31 after using the push rod 31 to turn the hopper 2 to a certain angle. At this time, the operator can hold the second flexible connector 33 to keep the hopper 2 stable when turning over. After the unloading is completed, the operator pulls the second flexible connector 33 and pulls the push rod 31 downward and toward the direction close to the operator through the second flexible connector 33. The push rod 31 drives the first flexible connector 32 to reset the hopper 2 to the support seat 1.

[0044] In order to facilitate connecting the second flexible connector 33 to the seat body, in this embodiment, the second flexible connector 33 is a chain, which is formed by a plurality of metal rings buckled in sequence, a second boss 42 is fixed to the second side of the support seat 1, a stop pin 43 protruding outward is provided on the outer side of the second boss 42, the chain is wound around the outer side of the second boss 42, and a metal ring of the chain is sleeved on the outer side of the stop pin 43. In other embodiments of the present invention, the second flexible connector 33 can be a rope body, which is connected to the support seat 1 by tying.

[0045] In summary, the forklift transfer bucket of the present invention comprises a support seat 1, a hopper 2 and a flexible connector 3. The lower end of the support seat 1 is provided with a slot body, and the fork of the forklift is inserted into the slot body to lift the support seat 1; the hopper 2 is arranged on the support seat 1, and the lower end of the first side of the hopper 2 is hinged to the first side of the support seat 1; the flexible connector 3 is used to fix the hopper 2 on the support seat 1 and to pull the hopper 2 to turn over; the first end of the flexible connector 3 is fixedly connected to the second side of the hopper 2, and the second end of the flexible connector 3 is detachably connected to the second side of the support seat 1, and the second end of the flexible connector 3 is connected to the second side of the support seat 1. The connecting piece 3 holds the second side of the hopper 2, which can fix the hopper 2 on the support seat 1, thereby ensuring the stable connection between the hopper 2 and the support seat 1 during loading and transporting materials; the second end of the flexible connecting piece 3 is removed from the second side of the support seat 1, and the flexible connecting piece 3 is pulled in the direction of the first side of the hopper 2. The flexible connecting piece 3 can drive the hopper 2 to rotate around the hinge axis, so that the hopper 2 is turned over to achieve unloading. After unloading, the hopper 2 is turned over again to restore the hopper 2 to the support seat 1; therefore, there is no need to remove the transfer bucket from the fork during the unloading process, and it is convenient to turn over the hopper 2, thereby improving the material transfer efficiency.
