Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a cover device for a power supply section of a battery-type forklift consisting of a battery and a charger.

Conventional technology In a battery type forklift, a battery and a charger are mounted on the vehicle body so that the battery can be charged while the battery is mounted on the vehicle body.

For example, as shown in FIG. 5, a battery 2 and a charger 3 are installed side by side on a vehicle body 1, and both are covered by a bonnet 4 that can be opened and closed, and the operating section 3a of the charger 3 is opened and closed by a cover 5. I am free to do so.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention With this structure, since charging can be performed by opening only the cover 5 and operating the steering section 3a, there is a risk of explosion due to hydrogen gas generated during charging filling the bonnet 4. There is.

Note that hydrogen gas will not be generated if the bonnet 4 is opened upward and the upper part of the battery 2 is opened.
Since opening the upper part of the bonnet 4 is troublesome, charging operations are sometimes performed without opening the bonnet 4.

Means and Effects for Solving the Problems The cover of the charger is located inside the bonnet so that charging cannot be performed by opening the cover unless the bonnet is opened upward.

Embodiment The vehicle body 10 includes a frame 11 and a counterweight 1
2, a battery 13 and a charger 14 are installed in parallel on a frame 11, and a bonnet 15 is mounted on the frame 11.
The upper plate 15a, the front plate 15b, and the side plates 15c form a downward U-shaped cross section, and the rear portion of the upper plate 15a is connected to the counterweight 12 by a hinge 16 so as to be vertically movable.

The operation part 14a and the charger outlet 14b of the charger 14 can be opened and closed by a cover 17, and the cover 17 can be rotated laterally by a vertical pin 18, and the upper part is located inside the side plate 15c of the bonnet 15. ing.

However, in order to open the cover 17, the bonnet 15 must be rotated upward as shown in FIG. It is safe because the inside of the bonnet 15 will not be filled with water.

It should be noted that the cover 17 may be rotated in the vertical direction by a horizontal pin 19 as shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG.
It is also possible to insert the upper part into the side plate 15c.

In other words, the upper part of the cover 17 may be positioned inside the bonnet 15 so that the bonnet 15 cannot be opened unless the bonnet 15 is rotated upward.

Effect of the invention: Since the cover 17 cannot be opened unless the bonnet 15 is rotated upward, the bonnet 15 cannot be opened.
It is possible to prevent charging operation with the bonnet 15 closed, and it is safe to prevent hydrogen gas generated during charging from filling the bonnet 15 and causing an explosion.
