[0036] Specifically, the first connecting leg 11 and the front supporting assembly 2 are fixed by fastening bolts. When the upper frame 1 needs to be rotated, the operator first unscrews the fastening bolts to release the fixation of the first connecting leg 11 and the front supporting assembly 2, and then rotates the upper frame 1.
[0037] It should be noted that the second connecting leg 12 and the rear support assembly 3 can be fixed by fastening bolts, or fixed by clamping, or the second connecting leg 12 and the rear support assembly 3 can be abutted, or other methods are also possible, which are not limited here.
[0038] The rotating group 4 includes a connecting rod 41, a semicircular hinge 42, a support frame 43 and a rotating shaft 44. The first end of the connecting rod 41 is respectively arranged on the second end of the second connecting leg 12, the first end of the semicircular hinge 42 is connected to the second end of the connecting rod 41, the first end of the support frame 43 is respectively arranged on the rear support component 3, and the rotating shaft 44 passes through the second end of the semicircular hinge 42 and the second end of the support frame 43, so that the semicircular hinge 42 is rotatably connected with the support frame 43.
[0039] When the forklift needs to work in a height-restricted area, the operator separates the front support assembly 2 from the first connecting leg 11, and rotates the second connecting leg 12 around the rotating shaft 44 through the semicircular hinge 42, thereby rotating the upper frame 1 to one side of the rear support assembly 3, thereby lowering the height of the forklift to achieve smooth entry into the height-restricted area for work.
[0040] The utility model is implemented by arranging the first connecting leg 11 on both sides of the first end of the upper top frame 1, and the second connecting leg 12 on both sides of the second end of the upper top frame 1; the front support assembly 2 is respectively connected to the first end of the first connecting leg 11, and the rear support assembly 3 is respectively connected to the first end of the second connecting leg 12; and the first ends of the connecting rods 41 are respectively arranged on the second ends of the second connecting legs 12, the first ends of the semicircular hinges 42 are connected to the second ends of the connecting rods 41, the first ends of the support frames 43 are respectively arranged on the rear support assemblies 3, and the rotating shafts 44 respectively penetrate the second ends of the semicircular hinges 42 and the second ends of the support frames 43, so that the semicircular hinges 42 are rotatably connected to the support frames 43. When the forklift needs to work in a height-restricted area, the operator separates the front support assembly 2 from the first connecting leg 11, and allows the second connecting leg 12 to rotate around the rotating shaft 44 through the semicircular hinge 42, thereby rotating the upper frame 1 to one side of the rear support assembly 3, thereby lowering the height of the forklift to achieve smooth entry into the height-restricted area for work. The utility model has a simple structure, a reasonable design, saves time and effort, reduces the labor intensity of the operator, and makes the installation and disassembly of the upper frame 1 more convenient, effectively improving work efficiency.
[0041] In one embodiment of the flip forklift overhead guard of the utility model, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the second end of the semicircular hinge 42 has a first mounting hole 421 , the second end of the support frame 43 has a second mounting hole 46 , and the rotating shaft 44 passes through the first mounting hole 421 and the second mounting hole 46 respectively.
[0042] The utility model sets a first mounting hole 421 at the second end of the semicircular hinge 42 and a second mounting hole 46 at the second end of the support frame 43, so that the rotating shaft 44 passes through the first mounting hole 421 and the second mounting hole 46 respectively, thereby ensuring the stable rotation of the semicircular hinge 42.
[0043] In one embodiment of the flip forklift overhead guard of the utility model, as Figure 3 As shown, the second end of the semicircular hinge 42 has an arc-shaped communication opening 422 .
