Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forklift technology, and in particular to an integrated protective mechanism for forklift lights. Background Technology

[0002] In logistics warehousing, factory workshops, and other operational scenarios, small-tonnage electric counterbalance forklifts have become core equipment for short-distance material handling due to their flexibility, convenience, environmental friendliness, and energy efficiency. However, their operating spaces often present challenges such as narrow aisles, densely stacked goods, mixed pedestrian and vehicle traffic, and obstructed visibility. Furthermore, forklifts need to perform multi-directional actions including lifting, transferring, stacking, and loading / unloading, making single-direction or single-position lighting insufficient for all lighting needs. To ensure operational safety and improve operational accuracy, forklifts must be equipped with multiple specialized lights for different directions and positions.

[0003] However, the lights on this type of forklift on the market are generally installed directly in the bare state without any protective structure. This defect may not directly affect the use under normal working conditions, but in special working conditions such as working at heights, construction, and areas with dense stacking of goods, the lights are very likely to be subjected to external impacts, causing damage to the lights or affecting the forklift's visibility, thereby causing safety hazards and equipment failure. Therefore, this utility model proposes an integrated protective mechanism for forklift lights. It adopts an integrated design to precisely adapt to the lighting layout of different models of small-tonnage electric counterbalance forklifts, and can fully cover the top and side areas of the lights to form a protective barrier without blind spots. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned integrated protective mechanism for forklift lights, the present invention provides the following technical solution: the protective mechanism is installed on the top guard and includes a first protective cover containing at least two sets of protective cavities, a first protective net provided on the rear side of the top of the top guard, and a second protective cover provided on the side of the top guard.

[0005] Furthermore, in the first protective cover, one set of protective cavities is formed by connecting the U-shaped protective plate and the mounting bracket through the first protective column; the other set of protective cavities is formed by connecting the mounting bracket and the mounting base plate through the mounting back plate and the second protective column.

[0006] Furthermore, a first protective plate is provided below the first protective cover. The first protective plate includes a mounting arm on the mounting base plate, a transverse protective plate connected to the mounting arm, and a longitudinal protective plate perpendicularly connected to the transverse protective plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the first protective net includes a mounting plate, a mounting bracket disposed on the mounting plate, a long mounting rod arranged parallel to the mounting plate, and a short mounting rod arranged perpendicular to the mounting plate.

[0029] In the second protective cover 7, the first bracket 6 is fixedly connected to the protective net bracket 71 through the second waist-shaped hole 711, and is vertically connected to the bent guardrail 72 on it to form a protective cavity. The first bracket 6 is set on both sides of the top guard 3 through the second mounting hole 32. A strip light 8 is installed on the first bracket 6. The strip light 8 is set in the protective cavity. Its lighting direction can cover the side working area of ​​the forklift, supplementing the side lighting. At the same time, the strip light 8 is directly protected by the second protective cover 7 to avoid damage from external impact. The design of the protective cavity can be finely adjusted according to the position and size of the lights on both sides of the top guard 3 to ensure that the protective cavity can accurately cover the side lighting area.

[0030] The headlights 1 are fixed to both sides of the front of the forklift via mounting brackets 22, located inside the first guard plate 4, and are protected by both the first guard plate 4 and the side guard net, ensuring unobstructed illumination. The blue light 5 is mounted via the first guard plate 4, with adjustable mounting height, and the first guard plate 4 provides side collision protection. The strip light 8 is fixed to the first bracket 6, located inside the side guard net, supplementing side illumination. The warning light 11 is welded to the first guard net 9, providing unobstructed 360° warning angle, and is surrounded by mounting brackets and mounting rods for ring protection to prevent direct impact from falling objects. The rear combination light 12 is embedded in the central area of ​​the first guard net 9 via the mounting platform 10, and the mounting long rod 93 and mounting short rod 94 can completely block collisions from the rear and rear sides, while not affecting the signal transmission of the brake lights and turn signals.
