Embodiment 1

[0026] The energy-absorbing device of this automobile seat just takes effect when the accident (as rear-end collision accident) that easily makes occupant's neck injury takes place, and this device is respectively arranged on the both sides of seat, and the structure of seat belongs to prior art, as figure 1 As shown, it mainly includes a seat plate 1 arranged horizontally, a backrest 2 arranged on the rear side of the seat plate 1, a slide rail skeleton 3 arranged vertically is respectively fixed under both sides of the seat plate 1, and the bottom part of the slide rail skeleton 3 is connected with the automobile. The sliding grooves on the floor are slidably matched, and as long as the position of the slide rail skeleton 3 is adjusted in the sliding grooves, the whole seat can be driven to move back and forth; The soft leaning layer 2a made makes the occupant lean against comfortably, and the rear layer is a hard leaning layer 2b made of metal material, which is negative to ...

Embodiment 2

[0036] Such as Figure 6 As shown, the structure and principle of this embodiment are basically the same as those of Embodiment 1, and the only difference lies in the specific clamping structure between the first locking member 11 and the second locking member 12 in the locking mechanism, as shown in the figure , the locking piece 11 and the locking piece 2 12 in this embodiment are both sheet-shaped, and the outer end of the locking piece 11 has an outwardly protruding arc-shaped connecting portion 11b, and on the arc-shaped connecting portion 11b A connecting hole 11c for connecting the lower end of the transmission member 14 is opened near the edge, and the outer end of the second locking member 12 has a groove 12b matching the arc-shaped connecting portion 11b.

Abstract

The invention provides an energy absorber for automotive seats, which belongs to the field of automobiles. The energy absorber solves the problem that the necks of passengers of the conventional automobile are hurt easily when the conventional automobile encounters a rear-end accident. The energy absorber for automotive seats is fixed on an automobile seat which comprises a seat board and a backrest; a sliding rail framework is arranged under one side of the seat board; and the backrest is hinged on the corresponding sliding rail framework by a backrest framework connected with the backrest. The device comprises an energy absorbing part made of a metal material, wherein the energy absorbing part is connected with the backrest framework and the sliding rail framework respectively; and the mechanical strength of the energy absorbing part is smaller than those of the backrest framework and the sliding rail framework. Once an accident happens, the energy absorbing part deforms to absorb kinetic energy as the back of a passenger presses the backrest under the action of inertia and makes the backrest rotate backward; and thus, the backward rotation speeds of the backrest framework and the backrest are reduced, and the backrest reliably supports and gently moves back the neck of the passenger to effectively protect the neck of the passenger.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a car seat, in particular to an energy absorbing device of the car seat, and belongs to the field of cars. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the automobile industry and the improvement of people's living standards, the number of private cars is increasing, which leads to an increasing incidence of traffic accidents, which greatly threatens the health and lives of car owners and passengers. We On the one hand, the driver is required to master proficient driving skills to avoid accidents. On the other hand, once an accident occurs, we also require the car to be equipped with some corresponding safety devices to reduce the damage to the occupants. The safety devices installed on existing cars mainly include seat belts, door locks, electronic stability control system ESC, front airbags, energy-absorbing steering columns, side airbags and side air curtains, tires, door anti-collision beams and collision buf...
