[0002] Currently, excavators are developing relatively rapidly and have become one of the most important construction machines. An excavator is a machine that uses a bucket to dig materials. The materials excavated by excavators are generally soil, coal, silt, and pre-loosened soil and rock. In existing technology, excavators can also be used to excavate and clear river channels. However, excavator booms are mostly two-section booms, and their extension range is limited by the excavator's own movement. This necessitates repeated adjustments to the excavator's position, which severely impacts its digging efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the bucket structure of low headroom excavators in the existing technology. Utility Model Content
