[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-3 In this embodiment of the utility model, a forklift cab protective net includes a forklift cab frame 1, a glass window 2, a mounting frame 3, and a protective net 4. The forklift cab frame 1 has a glass window 2 at the front, and a protective net 4 is set in front of the glass window 2. The protective net 4 includes a mesh frame 401 and a mesh body 402. The mesh body 402 is installed in the middle of the mesh frame 401. The mesh body 402 includes transverse steel wires and longitudinal steel wires, which are arranged in a cross shape. The two ends of the steel wires are welded and fixed to the mesh frame 401. The size of the aperture formed by the transverse steel wires and longitudinal steel wires can be adjusted during manufacturing according to actual needs. A mounting frame 3 is welded to the forklift cab frame 1 around the glass window 2.
[0024] The mounting frame 3 is a C-shaped frame, and the cross-section of the mounting frame 3 is a right-angle plate. This design can limit the mesh frame 401 of the protective net 4 and prevent the protective net 4 from detaching from the mounting frame 3.
