Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of forks, and in particular to a foldable fork. Background Art
[0002] Forks are the most commonly used forklifts to transport, pick up and place goods. Traditional forks still have certain defects when used. The horizontal and vertical sections of traditional forks are welded into a whole and cannot be folded. Therefore, they take up a lot of space when stored and are inconvenient to transport and carry. Although there are forks on the market with horizontal and vertical sections that can be folded together, the load-bearing capacity decreases after unfolding, and they cannot fork heavier goods. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the present application provides a foldable fork.
[0004] The foldable fork provided in the present application adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A foldable fork comprises a vertical section and a horizontal section, wherein two side edges of the vertical section are provided with square grooves, the square grooves penetrate through the lower end portion of the vertical section, and a fixed shaft is fixedly arranged on the square groove; a fixed ear with a through hole is fixedly arranged on the end portion of the horizontal section, and the fixed ear is rotatably arranged on the fixed shaft; a boss is fixedly arranged on the vertical section, and when the horizontal section is in a horizontal state, the end portion of the horizontal section abuts against the boss; a support plate is fixedly arranged on the boss, and a groove is provided on the end portion of the horizontal section, and when the horizontal section is in a horizontal state, the support plate is embedded in the groove.
[0006] A further technical solution is that a limiting convex angle is fixedly provided on the fixing ear, and when the horizontal section is in a horizontal state, the limiting convex angle abuts against the end surface of the square groove.
[0007] A further technical solution is that the thickness of the fixing ear is the same as the width of the square groove, and the width of the two square grooves is half the width of the vertical section.
[0008] A further technical solution is that when the horizontal section is in a vertical state, the horizontal section fits with the end surface of the vertical section, and the side of the limiting convex angle is flush with the end surface of the vertical section away from the horizontal section.
[0009] A further technical solution is that the length of the support plate is the same as the thickness of the horizontal section.
[0010] This application has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0011] By providing a fixing ear with a limiting convex angle on the horizontal section and a boss and a support plate on the vertical section, the bearing force can be distributed to the boss, the support plate and the limiting convex angle, thereby effectively improving the bearing capacity of the fork rotating shaft structure.

[0016] The technical solution in this application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0017] The present application embodiment discloses a foldable fork. Figure 1~Figure 3 A foldable fork comprises a vertical section 1 and a horizontal section 2, wherein square grooves 14 are provided on both sides of the vertical section 1, the square grooves 14 penetrate through the lower end of the vertical section 1, and a fixed shaft 11 is fixedly provided on the square grooves 14; a fixed ear 21 with a through hole is fixedly provided on the end of the horizontal section 2, and the fixed ear 21 is rotatably provided on the fixed shaft 11; a boss 12 is fixedly provided on the vertical section 1, and when the horizontal section 2 is in a horizontal state, the end of the horizontal section 2 abuts against the boss 12; a support plate 13 is fixedly provided on the boss 12, and a groove 22 is provided on the end of the horizontal section 2, and when the horizontal section 2 is in a horizontal state, the support plate 13 is embedded in the groove 22.
[0018] The vertical section 1 is fixedly provided with a slot plate 24 with two slots facing each other, and is used to fix the fork on the forklift through the slot plate 24. The fixing ear 21 is fixedly provided with a limiting convex angle 23, and when the horizontal section 2 is in a horizontal state, the limiting convex angle 23 abuts against the end surface of the square slot 14.
[0019] The horizontal section 2 can rotate along the fixed shaft 11. When the horizontal section 2 is in a horizontal state, the end of the horizontal section 2 abuts against the boss 12, the support plate 13 abuts against the lower part of the horizontal section 2, and the limiting convex angle 23 abuts against the end surface of the square groove 14. The bearing capacity of the fixed shaft 11 can be reduced and the bearing capacity can be distributed to the boss 12, the support plate 13 and the limiting convex angle 23, thereby effectively improving the bearing capacity of the fork rotating shaft structure.
[0020] When the horizontal section 2 is in a vertical state, the horizontal section 2 fits with the end surface of the vertical section 1, and the side of the limiting convex angle 23 is flush with the end surface of the vertical section 1 away from the horizontal section 2. In this way, when not in operation, the horizontal section 2 can be folded to reduce the space occupied by the horizontal section 2 and reduce the damage to the surrounding moving people or objects.
[0021] The thickness of the fixing ear 21 is the same as the width of the square groove 14, and the width of the two square grooves 14 is half the width of the vertical section 1, so that the force on the horizontal section 2 or the vertical section 1 can be more evenly distributed. The length of the support plate 13 is the same as the thickness of the horizontal section 2. When the horizontal section 2 is folded upward, the support plate 13 does not protrude from the bottom surface of the horizontal section 2, reducing the impact of the support plate 13 on the surrounding environment when the fork is in a folded state.
[0022] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
