[0053] The fixing mechanism 300 is installed at the connection between the gate 4 and the support frame 1, and can fix the gate 4.

[0054] It is worth noting that, in order to buffer the impact of the baffle 2, the buffer mechanism 100 specifically includes: multiple sliding grooves 101, which are formed on the upper end of the baffle 2.

[0055] Multiple slide rods 102 are slidably connected at one end to the slide groove 101, and movable plates 103 are welded to the other end of the multiple slide rods 102. The multiple movable plates 103 are linearly arrayed and slidably connected to the top of the support frame 1, which can limit the movement of the movable plates 103.

[0056] Multiple damping spring shock absorbers 104 are welded at one end to the upper end of the baffle 2 and at the other end to the lower end of the movable plate 103, which can buffer the movement of the movable plate 103.

[0057] Next, in order to disassemble the protective net 3, specifically, the disassembly mechanism 200 includes: multiple mounting slots a201, some of which are located on the side of the protective net 3 and others are located on the top of the protective net 3, so that the protective net 3 can be installed.

[0058] Multiple mounting slots b202 are provided on the side wall of the support frame 1. The protective net 3 is tenon-and-mortise connected in the multiple mounting slots b202, which can limit the position of the protective net 3.

The slot 311 and the pin 309 are tenon-jointed, allowing the rotating collar 302 to be disassembled for easy installation of the stop gate 4. To prevent the slot 311 and the pin 309 from separating during use due to rotating the stop gate 4, a sealing ring is bonded at the connection between the slot 311 and the pin 309.

[0066] It is worth noting that, in order to protect the top of the support frame 1, specifically, the baffle 2 is linearly arrayed and welded to the top of the support frame 1.

[0067] Finally, in order to see the back of support frame 1, specifically, the protective net 3 has a hollow design, so that the back of support frame 1 can be seen through the hollow.

[0068] Combination Figures 1-5 The specific usage process of a forklift overhead guard according to this embodiment is as follows:

[0069] 1: According to the actual use, when it is necessary to disassemble the protective net 3 to directly support the back of the frame 1, rotate the fixing bolt 204 to disengage the fixing bolt 204 from the mounting groove a201 and the mounting groove c203, and pull the protective net 3 to disengage the protective net 3 from the mounting groove b202.

[0070] 2: When using the stop gate 4, the snap ring 308 of the stop gate 4 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 301, and the slot 311 of the docking ring 310 and the pin 309 are tenon-tenon connected. Rotate the stop gate 4 so that the docking groove 303 of the stop gate 4 and the docking plate 305 are tenon-tenon connected. Use the limit bolt 307 installed in the limit groove 306 to prevent the docking groove 303 from disengaging from the docking plate 305 when the stop gate 4 is rotated.
