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

[0035] As Figs. 1 to 3 shown, a preferred embodiment of a transfer hopper for a forklift truck of the present application comprises:

[0036] The support seat 1 has a groove at the lower end for the insertion of the forks of the forklift truck, so that the forks can lift the support seat 1. In this embodiment, the support seat 1 comprises 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 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 the groove. The support seat 1 further comprises a plurality of support legs 14, each of which is arranged around the lower end edge of the bottom plate 11. The first cylinder 12 and the second cylinder 13 are arranged at the middle part of the lower end of the bottom plate 11.

[0037] 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.

[0038] The flexible connecting piece 3 is used to fix the hopper 2 on the support seat 1, and is also used to pull the hopper 2 to overturn. The first end of the flexible connecting piece 3 is fixedly connected to the second side of the hopper 2, and the second end of the flexible connecting piece 3 is detachably connected to the second side of the support seat 1.

[0039] The second end of the flexible connecting piece 3 is connected to the second side of the support base 1, the flexible connecting piece 3 holds the second side of the hopper 2, and the hopper 2 is fixed on the support base 1; the second end of the flexible connecting piece 3 is removed from the second side of the support base 1, and the flexible connecting piece 3 is pulled in the direction of the first side of the hopper 2, and the flexible connecting piece 3 drives the hopper 2 to overturn. After the unloading is completed, the hopper 2 is overturned again to reset the hopper 2 on the support base 1, so that the transfer bucket does not need to be removed from the forks during the unloading process, and the hopper 2 is convenient to overturn, and the material transfer efficiency is improved.

[0040] In the embodiment, the flexible connecting piece 3 includes a push rod 31 and a first flexible connecting piece 32 fixed to the first end of the push rod 31, the other end of the first flexible connecting piece 32 is fixed to the upper part of the second side of the support base 1, and the second end of the push rod 31 is detachably connected to the second side of the support base 1. Specifically, the first flexible connecting piece 32 can be a rope or a chain, and the first flexible connecting piece 32 is arranged at the end of the push rod 31, so that a flexible connecting node is formed between the push rod 31 and the hopper 2, and the angle between the push rod 31 and the hopper 2 can be flexibly changed, as shown in the figure. Fig. 3 When the push rod 31 is connected to the support base 1, the push rod 31 can apply a pulling force to the first flexible connecting piece 32, so that the first flexible connecting piece 32 holds the hopper 2 and keeps the hopper 2 stable on the support base 1. After the push rod 31 is removed from the support base 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 connecting piece 32 to pull the upper part of the hopper 2 in the direction of the first side of the support base 1, so that the hopper 2 is turned outward around the hinge shaft to the first side of the support base 1, and unloading is realized. The arrangement of the push rod 31 enables the operator to stand on the non-unloading side of the hopper 2 to overturn the hopper 2, and the operator does not need to stand on the unloading side of the hopper 2, so as to avoid the body from being injured when the waste material falls out of the hopper 2; in other embodiments of the present application, the flexible connecting piece 3 can be integrally arranged as a rope, the rope is arranged to be relatively long, and the operator moves to the unloading side of the hopper 2 during unloading and pulls the flexible connecting piece 3 to overturn the hopper 2.

[0041] In the embodiment, the length of the first flexible connecting piece 32 is greater than or equal to 50 mm and less than or equal to 100 mm, which ensures that the push rod 31 can flexibly change the angle and the movement of the push rod 31 can be smoothly transmitted to the hopper 2, and the overturning operation of the hopper 2 is facilitated.

Specifically, during unloading, the operator first pushes the first flexible connecting piece 32 to overturn the hopper 2 by the push rod 31. As the hopper 2 is overturned, the push rod 31 will move with the hopper 2. Therefore, after the hopper 2 is overturned by a certain angle by the push rod 31, the operator standing on the second side of the support seat 1 cannot hold the push rod 31 any more. At this time, the operator can hold the second flexible connecting piece 33 to keep the hopper 2 stable during overturning. After unloading is completed, the operator pulls the second flexible connecting piece 33 to move the push rod 31 downward and closer to the operator, and the push rod 31 drives the first flexible connecting piece 32 to reset the hopper 2 on the support seat 1.

[0044] To facilitate the connection of the second flexible connecting piece 33 to the seat body, in the embodiment, the second flexible connecting piece 33 is a chain, the chain is formed by a plurality of metal rings being sequentially buckled, the second side of the support seat 1 is fixed with a second protruding column 42, the outer side of the second protruding column 42 is provided with an outwardly protruding blocking pin 43, the chain is wound outside the second protruding column 42, and one metal ring of the chain is sleeved outside the blocking pin 43. In other embodiments of the present application, the second flexible connecting piece 33 can be a rope body, which is connected to the support seat 1 by lashing.
