Description
Technical Field

[0002] As a driving comfort configuration and safety protection product, the car headrest occupies an important position in the car interior parts. The demand for headrest functions by drivers and passengers is also increasing. When drivers and passengers sleep on the car seat, because the neck muscles are in a relaxed state after entering the sleep state, they generally need to lean their heads against the side supports. Therefore, the existing car headrests are usually set as sleeping headrests, that is, headrest side wings are set on both sides of the headrest frame. When the occupants need to rest, they can adjust the sleeping posture of the head by turning the left and right side wings, support the left and right sides of the occupants' heads, improve the quality of sleep, and meet the comfort requirements of passengers to the greatest extent. However, when sudden braking or other emergency situations occur during vehicle driving, the side wings of the headrest will be impacted, and the impact force will be transmitted to the drive motor along the side wings. Due to the transmission connection between the drive motor and the side wings, the drive motor will be reversed under the action of external force, causing damage to the drive motor.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0034] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0035] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a driving device of a headrest comprises:
[0036] A driving member 100, on which an output shaft is drivenly disposed;
[0037] A collapse separation assembly, comprising a first drive portion 101 and a second drive portion 102 which are coaxially arranged, wherein the second drive portion 102 is movably arranged relative to the first drive portion 101, the first drive portion 101 is drivingly connected to the output shaft, and the second drive portion 102 is drivingly connected to two side wings 201, and a first drive gear 103 and a second drive gear 104 are respectively arranged on opposite end surfaces of the first drive portion 101 and the second drive portion 102, and the first drive gear 103 and the second drive gear 104 can mesh;
[0038] In the first working state, the output shaft rotates to drive the first driving gear 103 to rotate synchronously, the first driving gear 103 is meshed with the second driving gear 104, and the second driving gear 104 rotates synchronously;
[0039] In the second working state, the side wing 201 is flipped by force, driving the second driving gear 104 to rotate. At this time, the second driving gear 104 is separated from the first driving gear 103, and the second driving gear 104 rotates relative to the first driving gear 103.
[0040] In this embodiment, the rotation of the output shaft can drive the first driving part 101 to rotate synchronously, and the second driving part 102 meshing therewith can rotate synchronously to achieve control of the flipping angle of the two side wings 201; and when one or both of the side wings 201 are impacted, the impact force on the side wings 201 will be transmitted to the second driving part 102. If the first driving gear 103 and the second driving gear 104 are still in a meshing state at this time, the impact force will be transmitted to the output shaft of the driving member 100, applying an external force to the driving member 100 and causing damage to the driving member 100. Therefore, when the side wing 201 is impacted, the first driving gear 103 and the second driving gear 104 are separated. When the impact force is transmitted to the second driving gear 104, the second driving gear 104 rotates relative to the first driving gear 103 to release the impact force, thereby improving the service life of the driving member 100.
[0041] Specifically, the first driving part 101 includes a first driving ring, the first driving ring is fixed to the output shaft, and the first driving gear 103 is located on the end surface of the first driving ring; the second driving part 102 includes a rotatable second driving ring, and the second driving gear 104 is located on the end surface of the second driving ring; and the other end of the second driving ring is provided with a first elastic member 105, and the two ends of the first elastic member 105 are respectively against the second driving ring and the headrest shell 200;
[0042] In the first working state, the output shaft rotates to drive the first driving gear 103 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the driving force of the output shaft is smaller than the meshing force generated between the first elastic member 105 and the second driving gear 104 and the first driving gear 103. The second driving gear 104 meshes with the first driving gear 103 under the elastic force of the first elastic member 105, and the second driving gear 104 rotates synchronously.
[0043] In the second working state, the side wing 201 is flipped by force, driving the second driving gear 104 to rotate. At this time, the impact force on the second driving gear 104 is greater than the meshing force generated by the first elastic member 105 against the second driving gear 104 and the first driving gear 103. The first elastic member 105 is compressed, and the second driving gear 104 is separated from the first driving gear 103, so that the second driving gear 104 can rotate relative to the first driving gear 103.
[0044] In this embodiment, a first driving ring driving the first driving gear 103 is fixed to the output shaft as power output, and a second driving gear 104 is provided on the end surface of the second driving ring. The first driving gear 103 and the second driving gear 104 can mesh. In the normal working mode, the driving force of the output shaft is less than the meshing force generated between the first elastic member 105 against the second driving gear 104 and the first driving gear 103. The first elastic member 105 meshes with the first driving gear 103 against the second driving gear 104. The power of the output shaft Output, driving the two side wings 201 to adjust the angle; and when one or both of the side wings 201 are subjected to impact force, the impact force exerted on the side wings 201 will be transmitted to the second driving gear 104, and the instantaneous impact force will be greater than the meshing force generated by the first elastic member 105 against the second driving gear 104 and the first driving gear 103, so that the second driving gear 104 is separated from the first driving gear 103 and the second driving gear 104 can rotate relative to the first driving gear 103, releasing the impact force so that it will not be transmitted to the driving member 100.
[0045] It is worth mentioning that during daily use of the headrest, the head will also exert a certain pressure on the side wings 201 , and the force exerted by the head is smaller than the meshing force generated between the first elastic member 105 against the second driving gear 104 and the first driving gear 103 .
[0046] Further preferably, the tooth shapes on the first drive gear 103 and the second drive gear 104 are both arc teeth, and the end faces of the arc teeth are arc transitions.

[0050] It is worth mentioning that the first elastic member 105 includes a spring, and two ends of the spring are respectively against the second driving ring and the limiting column 107.
[0051] In this embodiment, the other end of the second driving ring is rotatably connected to the headrest shell 200, and the end of the second driving ring is clearance-matched with the second limiting ring 108 to achieve relative rotation between the second driving ring and the first driving ring, and when the second driving ring moves, the second limiting ring 108 can also provide a movement guide.
