The slider 8 is limited to the groove 7 by the restoring force of the first spring 9, achieving the effect of firmly connecting the structure between the fork arm 2 and the mounting block 16.

[0060] Embodiment 3:

[0061] This embodiment provides a shift fork. In addition to including the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features.

[0068] It can be seen from this embodiment that the fixing structure further includes a limiting groove 10. The limiting groove 10 is opened on the outer side surface of the fork arm 2. A sliding groove 11 is opened inside the fork arm 2, and one end of the sliding groove 11 communicates with the groove 7, and the other end communicates with the limiting groove 10. A compression rod 12 is arranged in the groove 7, the sliding groove 11 and the limiting groove 10, and is slidably connected with the sliding groove 11. A pressing plate 13 is fixedly connected to the compression rod 12, and the pressing plate 13 is slidably connected with the limiting groove 10. A second spring 14 is arranged in the limiting groove 10, and one end of the second spring 14 abuts against the bottom of the limiting groove 10, and the other end abuts against one end of the pressing plate 13 close to the sliding groove 11. When installing the mounting block 16, first press the slider 8 and the limiting plate 6 inward, then insert the mounting block 16 into the mounting groove 15, and pair the slider 8 into the groove 7.

[0069] Embodiment 4:

[0070] This embodiment provides a shift fork. In addition to including the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features.

[0071] It further includes:

[0072] A wedge opening 18. The wedge opening 18 is arranged on the side wall of the mounting block 16, and the number of the wedge openings 18 is multiple;

[0073] A wedge buckle 19. The wedge buckle 19 is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the wear-resistant block 17, and the number of the wedge buckles 19 is multiple. The wedge buckles 19 are all located inside the wedge openings 18, and the wear-resistant block 17 and the mounting block 16 are clamped through the wedge buckles 19.

[0074] It can be seen from this embodiment that the mounting block 16 and the wear-resistant block 17 are clamped through the wedge buckles 19, and the connection is stable.

[0075] Embodiment 5:

[0076] This embodiment provides a shift fork. In addition to including the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features.

[0077] The lubrication structure includes:

[0078] A through hole 20. The through hole 20 is located on the arm body 1;

[0079] An outer guiding protrusion 21. The outer guiding protrusion 21 is in a downwardly curved semi-circular shape, and is located at the outer end of the arm body 1 and below the through hole 20;

[0080] The inner guiding protrusion 22 is triangular and is located at the inner end of the arm body 1 and the lower end of the through hole 20.

[0081] As can be seen from this embodiment, since the shift fork and the gear device cooperate with each other and the interior is covered, it is difficult to ensure the lubricity of the device. Therefore, the structure is also designed with a lubrication structure. The through hole 20 is located on the arm body 1, and the through hole 20 can enable lubricating oil to flow into the interior of the device from here. The outer guiding protrusion 21 is in a semi-circular shape bent downward and is located at the outer end of the arm body 1. The outer guiding protrusion 21 is located below the through hole 4. The design of the outer guiding protrusion 21 is mainly to reliably guide and collect the lubricating oil attached to the outer surface of the arm body 1 so that the lubricating oil can be effectively collected in the through hole 20. The inner guiding protrusion 22 is triangular and is located at the inner end of the arm body 1 and near the lower end of the through hole 20. The setting of the inner guiding protrusion 22 ensures that the lubricating oil does not flow downward along the inner surface of the arm body 1 and can guide the lubricating oil to flow upward to the gear device, and can effectively fix the amount of lubricating oil of the gear device.

[0082] Embodiment 6:

[0083] This embodiment provides a shift fork. In addition to including the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features.

[0092] The arm body 1, the shift fork arm 2, and the shift fork shaft seat 3 are all coated with an anti-rust layer.

[0093] As can be seen from this embodiment, an anti-rust layer is coated on the outside of the arm body 1, the fork arm 2 and the fork shaft seat 3. The primer of the anti-rust layer is iron red epoxy primer, and the topcoat is epoxy enamel. The anti-rust paint can effectively prevent the surfaces of the arm body 1, the fork arm 2 and the fork shaft seat 3 from contacting the external environment, and has good anti-corrosion and anti-rust effects.
