[0022] See also Figures 1 to 4 In the embodiment of the utility model, a shock absorption structure of a four-point counterbalanced forklift includes a shock absorption mechanism 2, which includes two shock absorbers arranged in a symmetrical shape, and the two shock absorbers are arranged in a symmetrical and inclined shape. The shock absorber includes a damping expansion joint 21, a damping expansion joint 21 is provided above the damping expansion joint 21, and the upper end of the damping expansion joint is fixedly connected with a mounting end cover 22, a threaded ring is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the bottom of the damping expansion joint 21, and a shock absorber spring 23 is fixedly connected between the bottom of the mounting end cover 22 and the top of the threaded ring. The shock absorber spring 23 is arranged on the outer side of the damping expansion joint on its corresponding side. The overall shock absorption structure design consists of two shock absorbers arranged in a symmetrical and inclined shape. The overall shock absorption structure has a total of four fulcrums and can be supported at multiple points. At the same time, the two shock absorbers constitute an inclined triangular elastic support structure. Compared with the upright shock absorption structure design of a single shock absorber, the compression deformation of the spring is reduced when carrying high-intensity loads, and the shock absorption performance is stronger when subjected to vibration.

[0023] A horizontal guiding and limiting mechanism 1 is provided at the bottom end of the two damping expansion joints 21. The horizontal guiding and limiting mechanism 1 includes a horizontal mounting frame 11. A mounting mechanism is provided in the middle of the horizontal mounting frame 11. Connecting mechanisms are horizontally movably installed at both ends of the horizontal mounting frame 11, and the damping expansion joints 21 on the corresponding side are rotatably installed above the connecting mechanism. A horizontal guiding and limiting mechanism 1 is provided at the bottom of the two shock absorbers. When the inclined shock absorber structure is subjected to a vertical load, the upper end support of the shock absorber is fixedly installed, so the lower end support of the shock absorber needs to move. The lower end support of the shock absorber is provided with a horizontal guiding and limiting mechanism 1 to prevent the lower end support of the shock absorber from moving disorderly.

[0024] The mounting mechanism includes a groove 12 provided at the center position of the upper and lower side walls of the horizontal mounting frame 11. Two mounting holes 13 are symmetrically provided between the side walls facing each other on the two grooves 12. The overall shock-absorbing structure can be connected to the counterbalanced forklift frame through the top of the two shock absorber mounting end covers 22 and the mounting assembly, and can be connected to the corresponding components of the wheel suspension of the counterbalanced forklift through the mounting holes 13 of the horizontal mounting frame 11 and the mounting bolts.

[0025] A slide groove 14 is provided between the upper and lower side walls at both ends of the horizontal mounting frame 11, and a slide rod 15 is fixedly connected between the center positions of the two side walls of the slide groove 14.

A spring is fixedly connected between the opposite ends of the two sliders 16 and the inner wall of the slide groove 14. The top wall of the slider 16 is symmetrically connected to two connecting seats 17 in a front-to-back shape. A connecting shaft 18 is fixedly connected between the opposite side walls above the two connecting seats 17 on the same side. The outer side of the connecting shaft 18 is rotatably connected to the bottom connecting ring of the damping retractor 21 on the corresponding side, and the bottom end of the shock absorber is rotatably connected to the slider 16 structure. The slider 16 structure can only move horizontally along the slide groove 14 and the slide rod 15, playing a role in limiting the movement and guiding the bottom end of the shock absorber.

[0026] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the overall shock-absorbing structure can be connected to the counterbalanced forklift frame through the top of the two shock absorber mounting end covers 22 and the matching mounting components, and can be connected to the corresponding components of the wheel suspension of the counterbalanced forklift through the mounting holes 13 of the horizontal mounting frame 11 and the matching mounting bolts. The overall shock-absorbing structure design is composed of two shock absorbers arranged in a symmetrical and inclined shape. The overall shock-absorbing structure has a total of four fulcrums, which can be supported at multiple points. At the same time, the two shock absorbers constitute an inclined triangular elastic support structure. Compared with the upright shock-absorbing structure design of a single shock absorber, the spring compression deformation is reduced when high-intensity loads are carried out, and the shock-absorbing performance is stronger when subjected to vibration. In addition, a horizontal guide limit mechanism 1 is provided at the bottom of the two shock absorbers. Since the inclined shock absorber structure is subjected to vertical loads, the upper end fulcrum of the shock absorber is fixedly installed, so the lower end fulcrum of the shock absorber needs to move. The lower end fulcrum of the shock absorber is provided with a horizontal guide limit mechanism 1, which can prevent the lower end fulcrum of the shock absorber from moving disorderly.
