[0033] like Figure 1 , 2 , 3, 4, and 5 show a height adjustment mechanism for a seat armrest of the utility model, which includes a first connecting arm, a second connecting arm 20, a locking block 40, and a spring 50. The second connecting arm 20 and the first connecting arm form a telescopic mechanism. The armrest is mounted on the second connecting arm 20, and the first connecting arm is connected to the seat. The second connecting arm 20 moves up and down relative to the first connecting arm to adjust the height of the armrest. The locking block 40 cooperates with the spring 50 to lock the second connecting arm 20 and the first connecting arm to keep the armrest in the adjusted position.
[0034] Specifically, a guide groove 21 extending along the height direction can be provided on the second connecting arm 20, and the guide groove 21 includes a first side wall 211 and a second side wall 212 opposite to the first side wall 211. A plurality of card grooves 213 arranged along the length direction of the guide groove 21 are provided on the first side wall 211, and two toggle parts are provided on the second side wall 212, and the two toggle parts are staggered a certain distance along the length direction of the guide groove 21; a slider 30 is fixedly provided on the first connecting arm, and the slider 30 is limited between the first side wall 211 and the second side wall 212, and can slide along the length direction of the guide groove 21. The second connecting arm 20 and the first connecting arm form the above-mentioned telescopic mechanism through the cooperation of the slider 30 and the guide groove 21.
[0035] The locking block 40 is installed on the slider 30, and includes a rotating part, a locking head 41, and a toggle end 43, wherein the locking head 41 is located on a side of the locking block 40 close to the first side wall 211, and the toggle end 43 is located on a side of the locking block 40 close to the second side wall 212, the locking head 41 and the toggle end 43 are respectively located on both sides of the rotating part, and the locking head 41 is used to engage with the card slot 213 provided on the first side wall 211; the slider 30 is provided with a matching part and a stopper part, the matching part cooperates with the rotating part so that the locking block 40 is installed on the slider 30, and the matching part and the rotating part are configured to enable the rotating part to rotate relative to the matching part, and enable the rotating part to move relative to the slider 30 in the up and down direction, so that the locking block 40 can swing left and right relative to the slider 30, and enable the locking block 40 to move up and down between a first position and a second position relative to the slider 30.
[0036] In a specific embodiment, the matching portion is a slide groove 31 provided on the slider 30, and the slide groove 31 extends along the height direction. The rotating portion is a rotating shaft 42 provided on the locking block 40, and the rotating shaft 42 is embedded in the slide groove 31, so that the rotating shaft 42 can slide along the slide groove 31 and rotate in the slide groove 31 at the same time; in order to enable the rotating shaft 42 to both slide and rotate in the slide groove 31, in the utility model, the cross-section of the rotating shaft 42 is set to be circular; of course, in other embodiments, the cross-section of the rotating shaft 42 may also be other shapes, as long as the requirements that the rotating shaft 42 can be rotatable and slidable in the slide groove 31 are met.
[0037] When the rotating shaft 42 is located at the lower end of the slide groove 31, the locking block 40 is in the above-mentioned first position, and when the rotating shaft 42 is located at the upper end of the slide groove 31, the locking block 40 is in the above-mentioned second position; the stopper on the slider 30 is used to block the locking block 40 when the locking block 40 is in a specific position to limit the freedom of the locking block 40 to swing toward the first side wall 211. In this state, the lock head 41 on the locking block 40 will not be stuck in the slot 213.
[0038] Specifically, when the second connecting arm 20 moves downward to a predetermined position, the toggle portion located at the bottom contacts the toggle end 43 and is able to toggle the toggle end 43 upward, thereby causing the locking block 40 to move upward from the above-mentioned first position relative to the slider 30 to the second position. When the locking block 40 moves upward to the second position, the stop portion blocks the side of the locking block 40 toward the first side wall 211, thereby allowing the stop portion to block the freedom of the locking block 40 to swing toward the first side wall 211; when the second connecting arm 20 moves upward to a predetermined position, the toggle portion located at the top contacts the toggle end 43 and is able to toggle the toggle end 43 downward, thereby causing the locking block 40 to move downward from the second position relative to the slider 30 to the first position. When the locking block 40 moves downward to the first position, the locking block 40 disengages from the stop portion. At this time, the freedom of the locking block 40 to swing toward the first side wall 211 is released, and the locking block 40 can swing left and right.
[0039] The spring 50 is used to provide an elastic stress to push the locking block 40 toward the first side wall 211. If the freedom of the locking block 40 to swing left and right is not limited by the stop portion or the first side wall 211, the locking block 40 will swing toward the first side wall 211 under the push of the spring 50, so that the locking head 41 on the locking block 40 can be inserted into one of the slots 213. The second connecting arm 20 is locked with the first connecting arm through the cooperation between the locking head 41 and the slot 213.
[0040] Figure 5 , 6 , 7, 8, and 9 collectively show the adjustment process of the height adjustment mechanism of the seat armrest of the utility model. Figure 5 In the state shown, the locking block 40 is pressed toward the first side wall 211 by the elastic stress provided by the spring 50, so that the locking head 41 on the locking block 40 is locked in one of the slots 213. At this time, the locking block 40 is in the first position, and the locking head 41 cooperates with the slot 213 to limit the freedom of the second connecting arm 20 to move downward relative to the slider 30.
[0041] exist Figure 5 In the embodiment, the lock head 41 is stuck in the slot 213 at a higher position, so that the second connecting arm 20 is in a lower position, that is, the height of the handrail connected to the second connecting arm 20 is lower. When the handrail needs to be raised, the handrail is pulled upward. At this time, the lock head 41 is squeezed out of the slot 213 through the internal structure of the slot 213, and the second connecting arm 20 moves upward to a predetermined height. When the armrest is at the required height, the armrest is stopped from being pushed, and the lock head 41 on the lock block 40 is re-slotted into the lower slot 213 through the elastic stress of the spring 50.
[0042] like Figure 6 As shown, after the lock head 41 is inserted into the slot 213, the lock block 40 is again in a state of limiting the freedom of the second connecting arm 20 to move downward relative to the slider 30. Figure 5 , 6 In the state shown, since the locking block 40 is mounted on the slider 30, and the locking head 41 on the locking block 40 is clamped in the clamping groove 213, the locking block 40 locks the slider 30 and the second connecting arm 20 between them. When the armrest is subjected to downward pressure, the locking block 40 can transfer the downward pressure from the second connecting arm 20 to the slider 30, and the downward pressure is transferred to the seat through the first connecting arm, so that the locking block 40 can stably support the second connecting arm 20 to prevent the second connecting arm 20 from moving downward abnormally when subjected to greater pressure. That is to say, Figure 5 , 6 In the state shown, the armrest can only be lifted upward to move the second connecting arm 20 upward relative to the first connecting arm. The second connecting arm 20 is supported by the locking block 40 and will not move downward relative to the first connecting arm.
[0043] exist Figure 6 In the state shown, if you need to adjust the height of the armrest downward, Figure 7 As shown, the armrest is lifted upward, and the second connecting arm 20 moves upward to the highest position. At this time, the locking block 40 moves downward with the slider 30 relative to the second connecting arm 20, and the locking head 41 on the locking block 40 abuts against the first side wall 211. The toggle portion located below pushes the toggle end 43 upward, so that the locking block 40 moves upward from the first position to the second position. The locking block 40 is limited by the stop portion on the slider 30, so that the locking block 40 cannot swing toward the first side wall 211. At this time, the locking block 40 no longer limits the freedom of the second connecting arm 20 to move downward relative to the first connecting arm.
[0044] Then as Figure 8 As shown, the armrest is moved downward to the limit position. At this time, the second connecting arm 20 is moved downward to the limit position, and the toggle portion located at the upper part of the second side wall 212 pushes the toggle end 43 of the lock block 40 downward, so that the lock block 40 moves downward from the second position to the first position. At this time, the lock block 40 is disengaged from the stop portion on the slider 30, and the freedom of the lock block 40 to swing left and right is no longer restricted. The lock block 40 is pushed toward the first side wall 211 by the elastic stress of the spring 50, as shown in FIG. Fig. 9 As shown, the lock head 41 of the lock block 40 is inserted into the slot 213 at the highest point. Fig. 9 In the state shown, if the armrest needs to be raised, the armrest only needs to be pulled upward a predetermined distance so that the lock head 41 of the lock block 40 is inserted into the slot 213 of the corresponding height, and the height position of the armrest can be adjusted.
[0045] In the utility model, the first connecting arm and the second connecting arm 20 are locked by the locking block 40. When adjusting the armrest of the seat, there is no need to press a button to control the state of the locking block 40. Therefore, the user can adjust the height of the armrest to the required state as needed by single-handed operation, making the height adjustment of the armrest simple and convenient, and the height adjustment of the armrest can be easily achieved without using a large force. In addition, since the locking block 40 can achieve a better support effect between the second connecting arm 20 and the first connecting arm, the downward pressure of the armrest can be transmitted to the seat via the locking block 40 and the first connecting arm, so that the armrest can withstand a large downward pressure value, preventing the armrest from moving downward during normal use, thereby providing better support for the user's arm.
[0046] The utility model provides a matching portion on the slider 30, and a rotating portion on the locking block 40. The matching portion and the rotating portion cooperate with each other so that the locking block 40 can swing left and right and move up and down relative to the slider 30. In the above embodiment, the matching portion is set to a slide groove 31 located on the slider 30, and the rotating portion is set to a rotating shaft 42 located on the locking block 40 to achieve the purpose of enabling the locking block 40 to swing left and right and move up and down. In fact, in other embodiments, achieving the above purpose is not limited to adopting the above structure. For example, the slide groove 31 can be set on the locking block 40, and the rotating shaft 42 can be correspondingly set on the slider 30.
[0047] In order to make the entire mechanism more compact, the utility model forms a recessed position 301 on the side of the slider 30, and places the locking block 40 in the recessed position 301, so that the locking block 40 occupies as little radial space of the first connecting arm as possible. The above-mentioned slide groove 31 is arranged on the bottom surface of the recessed position 301, and the stopper is a retaining wall 32 extending downwardly from the top wall of the recessed position 301. A receiving space is formed in the recessed position 301 on the side of the retaining wall 32 facing the second side wall 212. When the locking block 40 is in the second position, the locking block 40 is limited by the retaining wall 32 and cannot swing toward the first side wall 211. The driving end 43 of the locking block 40 is located in the receiving space. A connecting wall 33 is also provided on the top wall of the recess 301. The connecting wall 33 extends from the bottom wall of the retaining wall 32 to the side of the slider 30 close to the first side wall 211. The connecting wall 33 is inclined. Specifically, the connecting wall 33 gradually inclines upward from one end connected to the retaining wall 32 to the other end. By setting the connecting wall 33 as an inclined structure, the connecting wall 33 can avoid the locking block 40 swinging left and right.
[0048] For example, in Figures 8 to 9In the state, the locking block 40 is pushed downward to disengage from the retaining wall 32, and under the elastic stress of the spring 50, the locking block 40 swings toward the first side wall 211. The inclined connecting wall 33 can avoid interference between the slider 30 and the locking block 40, thereby ensuring that the locking block 40 can swing normally and flexibly toward the first side wall 211, so that the locking head 41 on the locking block 40 can be inserted into the slot 213.
[0049] In addition, the portion where the connecting wall 33 and the retaining wall 32 meet forms a stop end 34. Fig. 9 In the state shown, the lock head 41 is stuck in the slot 213, and the stop end 34 is just pressed on the toggle end 43 that has completed swinging toward the first side wall 211. At this time, the lower part of the lock block 40 is limited by the rotation shaft 42 and the lower end of the slide slot 31, and the upper part of the lock block 40 is limited by the stop end 34 and the toggle end 43 to prevent the lock block 40 from moving up and down. Under the elastic stress of the spring 50, the lock block 40 will not swing left and right, and the lock head 41 of the lock block 40 is stably stuck in the slot 213, so that the lock block 40 can stably lock the freedom of the second connecting arm 20 to move downward relative to the first connecting arm, further preventing the armrest from moving downward abnormally during use.
[0050] In order to match the structure of the concave position 301, a notch 44 is formed in the portion of the lock block 40 between the lock head 41 and the toggle end 43. The notch 44 forms a stop surface on the side away from the lock head 41. The notch 44 is used for the above-mentioned stop end 34 to be embedded. Figure 7 In the state shown, the stop end 34 is embedded in the notch 44, and the retaining wall 32 is in contact with the retaining surface. The retaining wall 32 cooperates with the retaining surface to form a limiting structure that prevents the locking block 40 from swinging toward the first side wall 211.
[0051] A first limiting groove 35 is also provided on the side wall of the above-mentioned recess 301. Corresponding to the first limiting groove 35, a second limiting groove 45 is provided on the side of the locking block 40 away from the first side wall 211. The second limiting groove 45 is arranged opposite to the first limiting groove 35. One end of the spring 50 is embedded in the first limiting groove 35 and the other end is embedded in the second limiting groove 45. In this way, when the locking block 40 moves between the first position and the second position, the end of the spring 50 is prevented from being separated from the slider 30 and the locking block 40, so that the spring 50 can provide stable elastic stress for the locking block 40.
[0052] In other embodiments, the spring 50 may be replaced by other elastic members, such as an elastic rubber block, or a tension spring connected between the locking block 40 and the slider 30 for always pulling the locking block 40 toward the first side wall 211; in other embodiments, the spring may be a torsion spring, for example, a movable block may be embedded in the slide groove 31, and the rotating shaft 42 of the locking block 40 may be rotatably connected to the movable block, and the torsion spring may be arranged between the movable block and the locking block 40. In this way, the locking block 40 can swing left and right, and can move up and down relative to the slider 30, and the elastic stress provided by the torsion spring can always make the locking block 40 have a tendency to swing toward the first side wall 211.
[0053] A groove 22 is provided on the second side wall 212, which is recessed away from the first side wall 211. The top surface of the groove 22 forms a toggle portion 214, and the bottom surface forms a toggle portion 215. A toggle rod 46 is provided on the lock block 40, which extends away from the lock head 41. The end of the toggle rod 46 away from the lock head 41 forms a toggle end 43. Figure 7 As shown, when the freedom of the locking block 40 to swing toward the first side wall 211 is limited by the retaining wall 32, the locking block 40 is in a state close to the second side wall 212, and the part of the lever 46 on the locking block 40 away from the lock head 41 is embedded in the groove 22, so that the toggle end 43 on the lever 46 can slide in the groove 22 with the locking block 40, and when the lever 46 slides upward to the preset position, the toggle portion 214 can push the lever 46 downward, and when the lever 46 slides downward to the preset position, the toggle portion 215 pushes the lever 46 upward.
[0054] In order to stably lock the lock head 41 in the slot 213, the lock head 41 can lift the second connecting arm 20 upward when it is locked in the slot 213, the slot 213 of the utility model includes a support wall 2131 and a guide wall 2132, the support wall 2131 extends from the first side wall 211 to the direction away from the second side wall 212, and the support wall 2131 is set to be perpendicular to the up and down direction, the guide wall 2132 is located below the support wall 2131, and the guide wall 2132 extends from one end connected to the first side wall 211 to the direction away from the second side wall 212. One end of the second side wall 212 gradually tilts upward, and when the lock head 41 is inserted into the slot 213, the lock head 41 presses against the bottom of the support wall 2131. Since the support wall 2131 is perpendicular to the up and down directions, the force of the lock head 41 and the support wall 2131 pressing against each other is consistent with the up and down directions, thereby preventing the lock head 41 from detaching from the slot 213, especially when the armrest is subjected to downward pressure, avoiding the lock head 41 from detaching from the slot 213, so that the lock head 41 can cooperate well with the slot 213 to realize locking the second connecting arm 20 to move freely downward.
[0055] When the height of the armrest needs to be adjusted, the armrest is lifted upward, the second connecting arm 20 moves upward, the lock head 41 is squeezed by the guide wall 2132, and the inclined guide wall 2132 can gradually push the lock head 41 toward the second side wall 212, and finally the lock head 41 is disengaged from the slot 213; when the lock head 41 is located in the lowermost slot 213, the second connecting arm 20 moves upward, so that the lock head 41 is disengaged from the lowermost slot 213, and the lock head 41 is pressed against the first side wall 211, that is, Figure 7 In the state shown, the second connecting arm 20 continues to move upward, so that the toggle portion 215 pushes the toggle rod 46 upward, and the locking block 40 moves to the second position.
[0056] In another embodiment, the support wall 2131 may be configured as an inclined structure so that the support wall 2131 gradually tilts upward from an end connected to the first side wall 211 toward an end away from the second side wall 212. When the lock head 41 abuts against the bottom of the support wall 2131, the inclined support wall 2131 can prevent the lock head 41 from moving toward the second side wall 212, thereby preventing the lock head 41 from detaching from the slot 213.
