Vibration sensory chair

Abstract

The present invention relates to a vibration sensory chair that has a transducer for converting a sound signal to vibrations installed in the backrest or cushion of the chair so as to transmit the sensations of sound-derived vibration directly to the body. According to the present invention, the foam sponge, which composes the material for the cushion or backrest of the chair, has a spring member integrally inserted therein, and a transducer for converting a sound signal to vibrations is integrally formed within the foamed sponge so as to configure a new type of vibration transmitter fixed to a spring member in a free-moving state. Thus, the energy transferal of the transducer can be most efficiently performed so that the user can experience finer and more three-dimensional vibrations.; By combining a sponge integrally formed with a foam sponge with a mesh-shaped material, a vibration sensory chair can be provided in which the durability of the foam sponge is improved due to pressure distribution, and the dispersion of vibrations is maximized so as to improve vibratory sensations. Also, according to the present invention, a module for sensory vibration may be provided that can: improve the functionality and usefulness of a sensory chair by suitably setting the gap or diameter of a spring or mesh that transmits vibrations from the transducer, and suitably setting the density of the foam sponge to thereby improve the vibration transfer characteristics through controlling the oscillation frequency to meet the desired properties; and which can be used not only in seats for movie theaters or homes by integrating sponge or mesh-shaped material with foam sponge and forming a single assembly of same assembled with a transducer, but also used for other types of furniture as well.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vibration conversion chair. More specifically, a converter with an auditory signal into vibration is fitted to a backrest member or a seat cushion of a chair so that the body of a seated person can directly feel the vibration generated from the signal. Background technique [0002] Normally, people can see three-dimensional stereoscopic images, but when the images captured by a video camera or camcorder are displayed on a TV, monitor, or movie theater screen, such images become flat two-dimensional images, which results in extreme three-dimensional effects. Great reduction. [0003] In view of this, in recent years, solid (tactile) chairs equipped with devices for special effects have been proposed for use in movie theaters, event halls in amusement parks, or three-dimensional movie theaters so that various scenes can be felt indirectly. [0004] Taking advantage of the proliferation of digital media with two-way communicat...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] But conventional vibration-converting chairs have limitations in transmitting small vibrations by using mechanical vibration methods

And there are many problems, such as the discomfort caused by the mechanical power, the increase of the manufacturing cost and the complexity of the device
