[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Specific reference Figs. 1 to 3 The figure shows a forklift with a weighing structure, comprising a frame 1, two fork arms 2, and a fork plate 3 covering the two fork arms 2. A weighing sensor 4 is disposed between the fork arms 2 and the fork plate 3. A contact head 5 is provided on the weighing end of the weighing sensor 4, and the lower end surface or the upper end surface of the fork plate 3 is mounted on the contact head 5. The fork plate 3 is designed to be separate from the fork arms 2. During forklift operation, any collision directly or indirectly transmitted to the fork plate 3 is not fixed to the weighing sensor 4. Therefore, even if the fork plate 3 moves, the lateral collision will not be transmitted to the sensor, ensuring the safety of the sensor.

[0018] This embodiment illustrates the sensor's fixed position. The fork arm 2 includes a bottom plane 21 and two upwardly folded longitudinal reinforcement surfaces 22. The load cell 4 is fixed to the upper end surface of the bottom plane 21. However, the position is not limited to the fork arm 2. The load cell 4 can also be fixed to the lower end surface of the fork plate 3. In this case, the contact head 5 contacts the upper end surface of the fork arm 2.

[0019] In order to avoid the fork plate 3 from falling off and prevent excessive repeated friction on the contact position, the positioning shaft 6 is longitudinally fixed on the bottom surface of the fork plate 3, the upper end of the positioning shaft 6 is fixed with the bottom surface of the fork plate 3, and the positioning shaft 6 is only movable up and down and is arranged on the fork arm 2. The positioning shaft 6 effectively fixes the fork plate 3 when colliding to prevent falling off, and the positioning shaft 6 is movable and does not affect the weighing when weighing. The fork plate is prevented from falling out by the clamping spring limiting the fork arm part.

[0020] In the embodiment, the inner end of the fork plate 3 is connected to effectively improve the overall stability of the fork plate 3.

[0021] In the embodiment, a series of anti-collision strips 8 and anti-collision pieces 9 are arranged to effectively slow down the impact. The fork arm 2 is provided with the anti-collision strip 8 on the side surface. The anti-collision strip 8 is fixed on one side of the fork arm 2, and the fork plate 3 is located in the middle of the U-shaped anti-collision strip 8 after installation. The outer end of the fork plate 3 is provided with the anti-collision piece 9. The inner side between the fork arms 2 is provided with the anti-collision piece 9.

[0022] In the above embodiments, all technical features are described, and it should be understood that any third person can cancel part of the technical features for the purpose of avoiding, wherein the structure listed in the embodiment can be canceled according to the actual situation, therefore, the listed technical features are not all necessary technical features. The protection scope of the utility model should be subject to the claims. Other embodiments of the utility model can be adjusted according to actual needs, which will not be described here and does not mean giving up similar schemes.
