DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0035] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solutions of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0036] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0037] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a car seat with a small table in this embodiment includes: a backrest base 100, a table body 200, a drive assembly 300, a gyroscope gravity sensor module and a controller 500;
[0038] Specifically, the seat back includes a backrest base 100, which can be fixed and installed by screws or buckles; the table board body 200 is hinged to the backrest base 100 through a hinge assembly 400, so that the table board body 200 can rotate relative to the backrest base 100; the drive assembly 300 is arranged in the table board body 200, including a drive shaft 320, which is connected to the hinge assembly 400 and is used to drive the table board body 200 to rotate relative to the backrest base 100; the gyroscope gravity sensor module is arranged in the seat back, and the gyroscope gravity sensor module is used to detect the angle between the seat back and the direction of gravity; the angle sensor The device 600 is arranged in the table top body 200 and connected to the drive shaft 320, and is used to detect the current rotation angle of the drive shaft 320 relative to the reference angle; the controller 500 is arranged in the seat back, and the gyroscope gravity sensor module, the angle sensor and the drive assembly 300 are all electrically connected to the controller 500; wherein, the controller 500 controls the movement of the drive assembly 300 and drives the table top body 200 to rotate according to the change of the angle detected by the gyroscope gravity sensor module and the rotation angle feedback by the angle sensor 600, so that the table top body 200 always maintains a preset angle relative to the horizontal ground when in use.
[0039] In this solution, the preset angle that the table board body 200 maintains relative to the horizontal ground when in use usually refers to the angle when the table board body 200 is parallel to the horizontal ground. According to user needs, the table board body 200 can also be tilted downward at an angle of 0-20 degrees relative to the horizontal ground to facilitate the user to place a laptop computer for use. During use, when the table board body 200 is tilted downward from the horizontal ground, the user can tilt the table board body 200 downward from the horizontal ground to facilitate the user to place a laptop computer for use. Figure 1 The storage status shown switches to Figure 2 After entering the state shown, the gyroscope gravity sensor module installed in the car seat begins to detect the angle between the seat back in the initial position and the direction of gravity (for example, the angle between the seat back and the direction of gravity is 10 degrees). The angle sensor 600 detects the rotation angle of the drive shaft 320 when the table body 200 is in the horizontal position and defines this rotation angle as the reference angle.
[0040] When the user adjusts the seat back angle or the vehicle encounters a hill or other road condition during driving, the angle between the seat back and the direction of gravity will change (for example, when going uphill or adjusting the seat back angle, the angle increases; when going downhill, the angle decreases). At this time, the gyroscope gravity sensor module will detect the specific value of the angle change (for example, from 10° to 20° when going uphill, and from 10° to 0° when going downhill) and transmit the change value to the controller 500. The controller 500 generates a control instruction to the drive assembly 300 based on the angle change signal. In response to the control instruction, the drive assembly 300 drives the table top body 200 to rotate a corresponding angle relative to the backrest base 100 through the drive shaft 320, so that the table top body always remains in a horizontal state.
[0041] As the drive shaft 320 rotates, the angle sensor 600 detects the current rotation angle of the drive shaft 320 and feeds it back to the controller 500. The controller 500 dynamically adjusts the control signal of the drive assembly 300 based on the rotation angle feedback from the angle sensor 600, forming a closed-loop feedback mechanism. This improves the control system's accuracy and response speed in adjusting the tabletop's posture, achieving more stable and precise self-balancing control.
[0042] This solution utilizes a gyroscope gravity sensor module and controller 500 to detect changes in the tabletop's posture in real time. The drive assembly 300 controls the rotation of the hinge assembly 400, ensuring that the main body 200 remains horizontal. This design effectively addresses the problem of traditional tray tables prone to tilting when the seatback angle changes or the vehicle is in motion, potentially causing items to slip, significantly improving safety and convenience.
[0043] It's worth noting that the hinge assembly 400 includes two first hinges 410 and two second hinges 420. The two ends of the first hinges 410 are rotatably connected to the tabletop body 200 and the backrest base 100, respectively. The two ends of the second hinges 420 are rotatably connected to the tabletop body 200 and the backrest base 100, respectively, forming a four-bar linkage. This four-bar linkage design makes the connection between the tabletop body 200 and the backrest base 100 more stable, capable of withstanding greater loads, while ensuring smooth rotation of the tabletop body 200.
[0044] In order to achieve the driving of the table top body 200, the driving assembly 300 in this solution includes a driving motor 310, one end of the driving shaft 320 is transmission-connected to the driving motor 310, and the other end is fixedly connected to one end of the first hinge 410. The driving motor 310 can be a stepping motor or a servo motor, and has precise angle control capabilities. The driving assembly 300 drives the driving shaft 320 to rotate through the driving motor 310, and then controls the movement of the hinge assembly 400 to achieve precise adjustment of the table top angle. It has a simple structure, high transmission efficiency, and is easy to integrate into the interior of the table top without affecting the appearance design, thereby improving the compactness and practicality of the system.
[0045] The table top body 200 of this solution includes: an upper cover plate 210; a lower cover plate 220, which is connected to the upper cover plate 210 by a snap-fit; a table top frame 230, which is arranged between the upper cover plate 210 and the lower cover plate 220, and the drive motor 310 is fixed on the table top frame 230, one end of the drive shaft 320 passes through the table top frame 230 and is fixedly connected to one end of the first hinge 410, and one end of the second hinge 420 is rotatably connected to the table top frame 230; a storage shell 240, which is arranged on the upper cover plate 210 and extends between the upper cover plate 210 and the lower cover plate 220, and the first hinge 410 and the second hinge 420 are both movably inserted in the storage shell 240, and are used to store the first hinge 410 and the second hinge 420 when the table top body 200 is against the car seat.
[0046] The upper cover 210 and the lower cover 220 are connected by snap fasteners to form the outer shell 110 structure of the table top body 200. The table top frame 230 is arranged between the upper cover 210 and the lower cover 220 to support and fix the internal components. Preferably, the upper cover 210 is made of engineering plastic, and the surface is anti-slip treated to enhance stability during use. The lower cover 220 is also made of engineering plastic, and reinforcing ribs are provided on the inner side to improve the overall structural strength. The table top frame 230 is made of aluminum alloy material, which has the advantages of light weight and high strength. The storage shell 240 is made of nylon material, and its inner wall is smooth, which can effectively reduce the friction resistance generated when the hinge assembly 400 moves.
[0047] In this solution, the upper cover 210 and the lower cover 220 are connected by snap-fits, which facilitates assembly and subsequent maintenance; the table frame 230 is used to install and fix the drive motor 310 and the hinge assembly 400, further improving the overall structural strength; the design of the storage shell 240 not only limits the swing range of the hinge assembly 400, but also protects the hinge assembly 400 in the stored state, thereby improving the aesthetics and safety of the product.
[0048] In a preferred embodiment, the drive motor 310 is positioned centrally within the table frame 230. The drive assembly 300 includes two drive shafts 320, both of which are connected to the drive motor 310. The axes of the two drive shafts 320 are collinear, and each drive shaft 320 corresponds to a hinge assembly 400. This symmetrical design ensures uniform force distribution on the table body 200, resulting in smoother rotation. The drive motor 310 drives the two drive shafts 320 separately through a gear transmission mechanism.
[0049] In this solution, the backrest base 100 includes: a shell 110; a base frame 120, which is arranged at the end of the shell 110 of the backrest base 100 away from the table top body 200; a fixed bracket 130, which is arranged at the end of the shell 110 facing the table top body 200 and is connected to the base frame 120, and one end of the first hinge 410 and the second hinge 420 are both connected to the fixed bracket 130.
[0050] The outer shell 110 provides protection and aesthetics for the backrest base 100. The base frame 120, located at the end of the outer shell 110 away from the tabletop body 200, provides support and reinforcement. Preferably, the outer shell 110 is made of engineering plastic and spray-coated to enhance wear resistance and aesthetics. The base frame 120 is made of aluminum alloy, offering high strength and rigidity. The fixing bracket 130 is made of stainless steel to ensure the stability and durability of the hinge assembly 400 connection.
[0051] Furthermore, a receiving cavity 140 is provided at one end of the shell 110 away from the car seat, and the receiving cavity 140 is used to accommodate the table board body 200 .
[0052] Reference Figure 1 When the table board body 200 is not in use, it can be folded and stored in the accommodating cavity 140, saving space and improving convenience. The width and length of the accommodating cavity 140 are slightly larger than the size of the table board body 200, ensuring that the table board body 200 can be completely stored.
[0053] In this solution, the controller 500 includes a circuit board 510 , a gyroscope gravity sensor module is integrated on the circuit board 510 , and the drive motor 310 is electrically connected to the circuit board 510 via a wire 520 .
[0054] Circuit board 510 integrates electronic components such as a microprocessor, power management chip, and driver chip. Integrating the gyroscope gravity sensor module onto circuit board 510 of controller 500 simplifies wiring and improves system integration. Drive motor 310 is electrically connected to circuit board 510 via wire 520, ensuring stable signal transmission and improving the overall control system's response speed and operational reliability.
[0055] The operating principle of this embodiment is as follows: When the car seat tilts, the gyroscope gravity sensor module detects the change in the angle between the seat back and the direction of gravity and transmits this data to the controller 500. Based on the change in angle and the data from the angle sensor 600, the controller 500 calculates the required angle of adjustment and generates a control signal for the drive assembly 300. After receiving the control signal, the drive assembly 300 drives the drive shaft 320 via the drive motor 310, driving the hinge assembly 400, causing the table top body 200 to rotate relative to the backrest base 100, maintaining a horizontal position. This entire process is completed automatically, requiring no human intervention, providing the user with a stable, level tabletop.
