LEVER TILTING MECHANISM FOR FORK-LIFT TRUCK

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent an interference of a body of an operator with a lever controlling a pressure control valve when the operator performing cargo handling work of a fork-lift truck gets in or out of a driver's seat. SOLUTION: In a lever mechanism provided with the lever 1 of the fork-lift truck operated by the operator and a link member coupled to a rotary shaft 5 of the lever 1 via a universal link and changing a rotational motion of the lever 1 into a displacement motion of the pressure control valve 81 adjusting oil pressure, a lever bracket 2 is attached to a body bracket 3 fixed to a fork- lift truck body. Second rotary shafts 6a and 6b are provided on the lever bracket 2 aside from the rotary shaft 5 of the lever 1 in positions corresponding to the universal link so that the lever 1 and the lever bracket 2 can rearwardly rotate around the rotary shafts 6a and 6b at an angle larger than during a normal operation.
