DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] Embodiment 1

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 A retractable forklift rain shield comprises a forklift rain shield bracket 1 and a transparent rain shield film 2 arranged at the rear side of the forklift rain shield bracket 1, a left column 101 and a right column 102 are arranged below the forklift rain shield bracket 1, and a reeling mechanism 3 for reeling the transparent rain shield film 2 is arranged between the left column 101 and the right column 102;

[0026] The winding mechanism 3 includes a driving motor 301 arranged on the forklift canopy bracket 1 and a screw rod 302 rotatably arranged in the left column 101, the output end of the driving motor 301 is fixedly connected to the screw rod 302, a threaded seat 303 is slidably arranged inside the left column 101, and the threaded seat 303 is sleeved on the screw rod 302 through a threaded connection, a guide rod 304 is arranged in the right column 102, and a sliding block 305 is slidably arranged on the guide rod 304;

[0027] A winding roller 306 is rotatably provided between the threaded seat 303 and the sliding block 305, the lower end of the transparent rain-shielding film 2 is arranged in a fixed groove provided on the winding roller 306, and two limiting plates 3061 used in conjunction with the transparent rain-shielding film 2 are also provided on the winding roller 306, a storage box 309 is provided between the left column 101 and the right column 102, and the upper end of the transparent rain-shielding film 2 is arranged on the top of the storage box 309;

[0028] The winding roller 306 is provided with a driven gear 307 in the right column 102 , and a driving rack 308 is also provided in the right column 102 . The driven gear 307 and the driving rack 308 are meshed with each other.

[0029] As can be seen from the above, the specific principle of storing and unwinding the transparent rain shield film 2 is as follows: first, the upper end of the transparent rain shield film 2 is fixed to the top of the storage box 309, and the lower end of the transparent rain shield film 2 is fixed in the fixed groove provided on the winding roller 306 and is wound on the winding roller 306, so when the winding roller 306 rotates, the transparent rain shield film 2 can be wound. When the driving motor 301 is working, the driving motor 301 can drive the screw rod 302 to rotate, and the screw rod 302 can drive the threaded seat 303 to move after rotating. When unwinding is required, the threaded seat 303 will move downward, thereby driving the winding roller 306 and the sliding block 305 to move downward. Since the sliding block 305 is provided, and the sliding block 305 is slidably provided on the guide rod 304, the stability of the downward movement of the winding roller 306 can be improved, and the normal downward movement of the winding roller 306 is ensured.

[0030] When the winding roller 306 moves downward, it can drive the driven gear 307 fixed on the winding roller 306 to move downward. A driving rack 308 is also provided in the right column 102, and the driven gear 307 and the driving rack 308 are meshed with each other, so when the driven gear 307 moves downward, it rotates, thereby driving the winding roller 306 to rotate. Finally, the movement state of the winding roller 306 is that it can rotate while moving downward. Since the lower end of the transparent rain shield film 2 is fixed in the fixed groove provided on the winding roller 306, when the winding roller 306 moves downward, the transparent rain shield film 2 wrapped around the winding roller 306 can be unwound, and then when the winding roller 306 moves to the bottom, the transparent rain shield film 2 can be completely laid on the rear side of the forklift canopy bracket 1 to provide protection for the operator.

[0031] Embodiment 2

[0032] Please refer to Figure 2-Figure 5 This embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment. This embodiment is made on the basis of the first embodiment and has the same beneficial effects as the first embodiment. The same parts can be referred to each other and will not be described in detail here.

[0033] As a further technical solution of this embodiment, a water baffle 310 is further provided on the left column 101 and the right column 102. A silicone sheet is provided on the water baffle 310 for increasing the sealing performance. When the transparent rain shield film 2 is completely laid on the rear side of the forklift canopy bracket 1, in order to reduce the shaking of the transparent rain shield film 2, the water baffle 310 can effectively limit the twisting of the transparent rain shield film 2, and the silicone sheet can fit with the transparent rain shield film 2, thereby providing certain support to the side of the transparent rain shield film 2.

[0034] Furthermore, the inner walls of the left column 101 and the right column 102 are provided with rectangular grooves for the winding roller 306 to slide up and down.

[0035] Furthermore, a reinforcing rod is provided between the left column 101 and the right column 102 to improve the strength between the left column 101 and the right column 102 .

[0036] Furthermore, both the threaded seat 303 and the sliding block 305 are provided with a placement groove for cooperating with the winding roller 306 , and a rotating bearing is provided in the placement groove, so that the provided rotating bearing is conducive to the normal rotation of the winding roller 306 .

[0037] Furthermore, the sides of the two limiting plates 3061 are respectively in contact with the sides of the left column 101 and the right column 102. The setting of the limiting plates 3061 can ensure the horizontal downward movement of the winding roller 306 on the one hand, and on the other hand, can provide a limit for the transparent rain shield film 2 when it is rolled up, thereby preventing the transparent rain shield film 2 from twisting and overlapping when it is rolled up.

[0038] Each embodiment in this specification is described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the embodiments can be referred to each other. For the above embodiments, since they are basically similar to the method embodiments, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts can be referred to the partial description of the method embodiments.

[0039] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
