Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seat processing technology, specifically to a footrest structure for a bar stool. Background Technology

[0002] Bar stools are high chairs designed for use at bars or high tables. They are characterized by longer legs and usually come with footrests so users can comfortably rest their feet. The seat height of bar stools is typically higher than standard dining chairs to accommodate higher bar counters or tables. This design not only facilitates conversation while standing at a bar or high table but is also suitable for sitting and enjoying drinks or light meals.

[0003] Existing bar stools, such as the invention patent document with authorization announcement number "CN220937398U" and patent name "A Bar Stool Easy to Store", disclose a bar stool including a bar stool base, a bar stool lifting rod, and a seat cushion. The bar stool base is characterized by having a limiting ring plate inside, with multiple movable cylinders fixed inside the limiting ring plate. The bar stool base and the movable cylinders are limited by a limiting component. The bottom end of each movable cylinder is fixedly connected to a traveling wheel located inside the bar stool base. The traveling wheel and the bar stool base are connected and fixed by a spring located inside the movable cylinder.

[0004] The foot pedal in the aforementioned patent document is cylindrical. When the user wears shoes with a certain heel, it cannot fully support the user's feet. Furthermore, different users have different foot lengths, which reduces the user's experience. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of the existing technology by proposing a footrest structure for a bar stool. This addresses the technical problem mentioned in the background art: the footrest of the existing bar stool is cylindrical, which cannot fully support the user's feet when the user is wearing shoes with a certain heel. Furthermore, different users have different foot lengths, thus reducing the user's experience.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A footrest structure for a bar stool includes a bar stool body, with support frames on both sides of the bar stool body, two support plates between the two support frames, and rotating components for rotating the two support plates on each of the two support frames. The bar stool body also has two folding components for rotating the support frames.

[0008] Working principle:

[0009] In the initial state, the two support plates are placed vertically on the support frame. When the user needs to expand the support area of ​​the support plates, the user can drive the two support plates through the rotating component, so that the two support plates are placed horizontally. When the support frame needs to be folded, the user can rotate the support frame through the folding component to complete the folding operation of the support frame.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] First, a rotating component is provided, which can transform two stacked support plates into two horizontally placed support plates, thereby increasing the area of ​​the support plates and thus increasing the area for users' feet to rest.

[0012] Secondly, it is equipped with a folding component, which allows the support frame to be folded to meet the needs of different users. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0020] Example:

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a bar stool footrest structure includes a bar stool body 1. Support frames 2 are provided on both sides of the bar stool body 1. Two support plates 3 are provided between the two support frames 2. Each of the two support frames 2 is provided with a rotating assembly for rotating the two support plates 3. The rotating assembly includes two first fixed frames 4, two rotating rods 5, two first connecting rods 6, two second connecting rods 7, and two stop rods 8. The two first fixed frames 4 are respectively fixed to the two support plates 3. The two rotating rods 5 are rotatably mounted on the support frames 2 and are parallel to each other. One end of each of the two first connecting rods 6 is fixed to one of the two rotating rods 5, and the other end is rotatably mounted to one of the first fixed frames 4. The two second connecting rods 7... One end is fixed to two rotating rods 5, and the other end is rotatably mounted on another first fixed frame 4. Both of the aforementioned stop rods 8 are fixed to the support frame 2 and the stop rods 8 are used to limit the rotation angle of the two first connecting rods 6. In the initial state, the two support plates 3 are vertically stacked on the support frame 2. When the two support plates 3 need to be horizontally placed, the user can pull the uppermost support plate 3 and move it away from the bar stool body. When the support plate 3 moves, the support plate 3 drives the first connecting rod 6 and the second connecting rod 7 to rotate axially around the rotating rod 5, so that the two support plates 3 can change from being placed vertically up and down on the support frame 2 to being placed horizontally. The stop rods 8 can prevent the first connecting rods 6 from rotating excessively.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the bar stool body 1 is provided with two folding assemblies for rotating support frames 2. Each folding assembly includes a support rod 9, a rotating block 10, and a first spring 11. Both support frames 2 are rotatably mounted on the bar stool body 1, and both support frames 2 are provided with sliding grooves 12. One end of the support rod 9 is rotatably mounted on the bar stool body 1, and the other end is slidably mounted in the sliding groove 12. The rotating block 10 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 2, and one end of the rotating block 10 slides through the support frame 2 and extends into the sliding groove 12. The other end slides through the support frame 2 and extends outward. One end of the first spring 11 is fixed on the support frame 2, and the other end is fixed on the rotating block 10. The support rod 9 is inserted into the end of the slide groove 12. The rotating block 10 is pushed by the first spring 11 and abuts against the inner wall of the slide groove 12. At this time, the end of the support rod 9 is located between the inner wall of the slide groove 12 and the rotating block 10, realizing mechanical locking. Pressing the end of the rotating block 10 compresses the first spring 11, and the rotating block 10 exits the slide groove 12. The support frame 2 can rotate and fold around the hinge point.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, both support plates 3 have a fixing plate 13 on the side where the human foot is placed. Both support plates 3 have a locking assembly for engaging the fixing plate 13. The locking assembly includes a fixing rod 14, a pressing rod 15, a second spring 16, a locking block 17, and a through-hole block 18. Each support plate 3 has an installation cavity 19. The fixing rod 14 is fixed within the installation cavity 19. The pressing rod 15 slides through the support plate 3 and extends into the installation cavity 19, with its end slidably connected to the fixing rod 14. The second spring 16 is sleeved on the fixing rod 14, and the second spring 17... The two ends of the spring 16 are respectively fixed to the inner wall of the mounting cavity 19 and the end of the pressing rod 15. The snap-fit ​​block 17 is fixed to the bottom of the fixing plate 13 and located in the mounting cavity 19. The snap-fit ​​block 17 has a strip hole 20. The through-hole block 18 is fixed to the pressing rod 15 and can slide through the strip hole 20. The second spring 16 pushes the pressing rod 15, and the through-hole block 18 passes through the strip hole 20 of the snap-fit ​​block 17. The fixing plate 13 cannot be detached. The pressing rod 15 slides into the mounting cavity 19, compressing the second spring 16. The through-hole block 18 exits the strip hole 20, and the fixing plate 13 can be removed.

[0024] Working principle:

[0025] The two support plates 3 are initially stacked vertically. The user pulls the top support plate 3 outward, causing the first fixed frame 4 fixed to its bottom to move synchronously. The first fixed frame 4 pulls the first connecting rod 6 and the second connecting rod 7, which respectively push the fixed rotating rod 5 to rotate around the hinge point of the support frame 2. Because the two rotating rods 5 are set in parallel, the synchronous action of the two connecting rods ensures that the two support plates 3 remain horizontally aligned, changing from vertical stacking to horizontal placement. When the first connecting rod 6 rotates to contact the stop bar 8, it is forcibly limited and stopped to prevent excessive flipping. At this time, the support plate 3 enters a stable load-bearing state.

[0026] Pressing the exposed end of the rotating block 10 compresses the first spring 11, causing the inner end of the rotating block 10 to exit the space of the slide groove 12. After the lock is released, the support frame 2 rotates and lowers around the hinge point of the bar stool body 1. At this time, the support rod 9 slides along the slide groove 12 and eventually retracts to the side of the bar stool body 1 with the support frame 2, greatly reducing the space occupied. After releasing the rotating block 10, the first spring 11 pushes it to reset, ensuring that the support rod 9 can automatically lock into the end of the slide groove 12 when unfolded again.

[0027] Press down on the pressing rod 15 to push the through-hole 18 out of the slot 20 of the locking block 17. At the same time, compress the second spring 16. After releasing the through-hole constraint of the through-hole 18, the fixing plate 13 can be taken out vertically upward for easy cleaning or replacement. After releasing the pressing rod 15, the second spring 16 pushes it back to its original position, the through-hole 18 is reinserted into the slot 20, and the fixing plate 13 is locked again.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
