Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a multifunctional integrated seat. Background Art

[0002] Office chairs are important office tools. As office workers' demand for office chair comfort continues to increase, office chairs are gradually developing in a multifunctional direction. At this stage, in addition to meeting the needs of people sitting, multifunctional office chairs also need to meet the following needs:

[0003] 1. The seat back can be tilted, and the tilting angle can be adjusted and fixed to meet the different lying needs of passengers, such as half-lying or full-lying;

[0004] 2. The seat cushion can be flipped at a certain angle so that the front part of the seat cushion faces upward and the back part faces downward, thereby raising the knees of passengers to varying degrees;

[0005] 3. When passengers are resting, the leg rest can provide support for their legs to improve comfort.

[0006] To meet the above needs, engineers in related fields have some research results that can meet the corresponding needs separately. However, due to the lack of overall coordination, on the one hand, the structure used in the existing technology is not streamlined enough. On the other hand, after combining the above functions using the existing technology, the office chair structure is complex and bloated, and there is serious interference between the structures corresponding to the functions, and there are disadvantages such as heavy weight and lack of aesthetics. Therefore, it is necessary to re-plan the implementation methods of each demand and integrate the functions. During the integration process, various structural parts and linkage relationships need to be re-planned and designed.

[0007] Specifically, in the prior art, the backrest and seat basin / seat cushion are mostly adjusted independently during rotation. The two need to be provided with independent flip structures and power devices, with weak synchronization and high cost. The rotation resistance is not adjustable, and the response to customer needs is not timely. Moreover, after adjustment, it generally does not have a self-recovery function, and manual reverse operation or setting of an electric mechanism is required for recovery. Summary of the invention

[0008] In view of this, without solving the above technical problems, the present invention provides a seat.

[0009] The technical solution is as follows:

[0010] A chair, the key of which is: comprising a support base for providing overall support;

[0011] It includes a seat cushion, the rear portion of which is hinged to the support base so as to be rotatable thereabout;

[0012] It includes a backrest, the lower part of which is hinged to the support base so as to be rotatable thereabout;

[0013] A synchronous linkage mechanism is connected between the seat cushion and the backrest, and the synchronous linkage mechanism relates the rotational power of the seat cushion and the backrest to each other so that the two can rotate relatively and simultaneously;

[0014] A damping adjustment mechanism is provided on the support base, and the damping adjustment mechanism acts with the backrest or the seat cushion to adjust the rotation resistance;

[0015] A flip locking mechanism is also provided on the support base, and the flip locking mechanism acts with the backrest or the seat cushion to lock the seat in place.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: it can improve the coordination of the seat back and seat basin / seat cushion during rotation adjustment; it can independently adjust the size of the flipping resistance according to different customer needs, and has a self-recovery function after adjustment, which simplifies the structure and reduces costs.
