Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a flip-up concealed forklift seat. Background Technology

[0002] Small forklifts used in certain specialized industries require enclosed protective frames in the cab to ensure operator safety. This makes the already cramped cab space even more congested. To facilitate the repair and maintenance of components in the motor compartment below the cab, the forklift seat needs to be improved. However, current forklift seats that may meet these improvement requirements often suffer from drawbacks such as complex construction, high manufacturing costs, and inconvenient operation. For example, the easily installed rotatable forklift seat disclosed in patent CN205498671U still has considerable room for improvement. Utility Model Content

The upper end of the motor chamber is provided with a spring-type buckle corresponding to the two latches. When the seat body is in the reclined state, the two buckles are engaged with the corresponding latches.

[0008] Furthermore, a handle is provided on each of the two front sides of the frame of the seat body.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper end of the backrest is provided with a plug-in part, and an extension pad is also inclinedly plugged into the plug-in part.

[0010] Furthermore, the rear end of the frame of the seat body is provided with a protruding mounting chamber, and the adjustment mechanism of the seat body and the backrest is located in the mounting chamber.

[0011] Furthermore, the front and top of the installation chamber are respectively provided with continuous arc-shaped chamfers.

[0012] Furthermore, a handle is fixed to the nut of each of the two bolts.

[0013] Furthermore, a protective net or protective glass is fixed to the back of the protective frame.

[0014] The advantages of this utility model are: simple structure, low manufacturing cost, convenient operation, and very suitable for use in small forklifts with enclosed protective frames and narrow cab space. The entire seat can be flipped and hidden between the motor compartment and the protective frame with simple operation, which facilitates the repair or maintenance of the components inside the motor compartment without disassembling the entire seat.

[0019] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0020] Combination Figure 1-3 As shown, a flip-up concealed forklift seat includes a seat installed in the cab. The seat includes a seat body 1 and an adjustable backrest 2. The seat body 1 is installed above the motor compartment 3 of the forklift to form a cover. Two guide posts 5 are provided between the back sides of the motor compartment 3 and the protective frame 4 of the cab. Each of the two guide posts 5 has a longitudinal guide groove 6. A bolt 7 is screwed to each side of the seat body 1. The two bolts 7 pass through the corresponding guide grooves 6 and are connected to the seat body 1.

[0021] When it is necessary to repair or maintain the components inside the motor chamber 3, lift the seat body 1 upwards to fold the seat body 1 and backrest 2, and press down the seat body 1 so that the folded seat is inserted between the motor chamber 3 and the protective frame 4, which allows for convenient operation of the components inside the motor chamber 3.

[0022] The working principle of the above structure is as follows: Under normal conditions, the seat body 1 is fixed on the top of the motor chamber 3, and the front end of the seat body 1 is engaged with the upper end of the motor chamber 3. Two bolts 7 are tightened on the two guide posts 5. At this time, the seat body 1 cannot be lifted and the top of the motor chamber 3 cannot be closed. When it is necessary to repair or maintain the components in the motor chamber 3, loosen the two bolts 7 to release the engagement between the seat body 1 and the motor chamber 3. Then, lift the seat body and fold the seat body 1 and backrest 2. Press down the seat body 1 so that the entire seat body 1 is engaged between the motor chamber 3 and the protective frame 4. At this time, most of the seat body 1 is flipped and hidden between the motor chamber 3 and the frame, and will not easily move. The components in the motor chamber 3 can be easily operated.

[0023] The advantages of the above structure are: simple construction, low manufacturing cost, convenient operation, and very suitable for use in small forklifts with enclosed protective frames and narrow cab space. The entire seat can be flipped and hidden between the motor compartment 3 and the protective frame 4 with simple operation, which facilitates the repair or maintenance of the components inside the motor compartment 3 without disassembling the entire seat.

[0024] It should be noted that the adjustment mechanism of the seat body 1 and the backrest 2 is the same as the existing car seat backrest 2 adjuster structure, and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1-3 As shown, both the seat body 1 and the backrest 2 are composed of a frame and a cushion set on the frame.

[0026] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1-3 As shown, the bottom of the frame of the seat body 1 is provided with two protrusions 8, and the outer sides of the two protrusions 8 are respectively provided with slots. The upper end of the motor chamber 3 is provided with spring buckles 9 corresponding to the two slots. When the seat body 1 is in the reclined state, the two buckles 9 are respectively engaged with the corresponding slots to ensure the stability of the seat.

[0027] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1-3 As shown, a handle 10 is provided on each of the two front sides of the frame of the seat body 1, so as to lift the seat body and flip the seat to hide it.

[0028] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1-3 As shown, the upper end of the backrest 2 is also provided with a plug-in part 11, and an extension pad 12 is also inserted obliquely into the plug-in part 11 to improve the comfort of the seat.

[0029] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1-3 As shown, the rear end of the frame of the seat body 1 is also provided with a protruding mounting chamber 13, and the adjustment mechanism of the seat body 1 and the backrest 2 is located in the mounting chamber 13.

[0030] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1-3 As shown, the front and top of the mounting chamber 13 are respectively provided with continuous arc-shaped chamfers to avoid excessively affecting the comfort of the seat.

[0031] In another embodiment, combined Figure 1-3 As shown, a handle is also fixed to the nut of each of the two bolts 7 to facilitate operation of the bolts 7.

[0032] In another embodiment, a protective net or protective glass is fixed to the back of the protective frame 4.
