[0071] Next, the structure of the backrest unit 2 will be described in detail.
[0072] The backrest unit 2 includes a first backrest connector 21, a second backrest connector 22, a third backrest connector 23 and a fourth backrest connector 24, wherein one end of the lower portion of the first backrest connector 21 is hinged to one end of the second backrest connector 22, the other end of the lower portion of the first backrest connector 21 is hinged to the seat frame support 31 at an eighth hinge point 58, the third backrest connector 23 is roughly V-shaped, one end of the third backrest connector 23 is hinged to the other end of the second backrest connector 22, the middle portion of the third backrest connector 23 is hinged to the third connector 37 One end is hinged, the other end of the third backrest connector 23 and one end of the fourth backrest connector 24 are hinged at the tenth hinge point 50, the third backrest connector 23 and the seat frame support 31 are hinged at the ninth hinge point 59, the ninth hinge point 59 is located between the other end and the middle of the third backrest connector 23, the other end of the fourth backrest connector 24 is hinged to the rear ends of the left and right connectors, and a backrest spring 100 is connected near the hinge point between the third backrest connector 23 and the second backrest connector 22, and the other end of the backrest spring 100 is connected to the seat frame support 31.
[0073] In this embodiment, the seat frame support member 31 includes a first seat frame member 311 and a second seat frame member 312. The lower end of the first seat frame member 311 and the lower end of the second seat frame member 312 are connected to form a "√"-shaped seat frame support member 31. The first hinge point 51, the fifth hinge point 55 and the sixth hinge point 56 are all located on the first seat frame member 311 and are sequentially distributed along the direction from the first seat frame member 311 to the second seat frame member 312. The eighth hinge point 58 is located at the free end of the second seat frame member 312. The ninth hinge point 59 is located at the connection position of the first seat frame member 311 and the second seat frame member 312, that is, at the turning position of the "√"-shaped structure. The other end of the backrest spring 100 is connected to the middle position of the second seat frame member 312.
[0074] Reference Fig. 9 As shown, the angle between the side of the third support member 34 facing the base 1 when the extension assembly is in a sitting state and the rear side of the third support member 34 when the extension assembly is in a lying state is A, and the tenth hinge point 50 is always located below the middle position of the second seat frame member 312 during the extension or folding process of the extension assembly, so that 100°<A<110°. Optionally, A can be 100°, 101°, 102°, 103°, 104°, 105°, 106°, 107°, 108°, 109° and 110°. Exemplarily, A=106°. By limiting the position of the tenth hinge point 50 and adjusting the size of A, the position of the tenth hinge point 50 is lowered, that is, the unfolding distance of the third backrest connecting member 23 and the fourth backrest connecting member 24 is shorter, the smoothness of the extension or folding of the extension assembly is improved, and when the extension assembly is in a lying state, the user lying on the sofa seat has a clear sense of zero gravity.
[0075] A first fixing rod 61 is arranged between the two second connecting members 36 on the left and right sides of the base 1 , a second fixing rod 62 is arranged between the two third backrest connecting members 23 on the left and right sides of the base 1 , and a third fixing rod 63 is arranged between the two fourth backrest connecting members 24 on the left and right sides of the base 1 .
[0076] The driving assembly includes a linear driving unit 71, a guide rail 72 and a connecting unit arranged on the base 1. For example, the linear driving unit 71 is a linear motor, a slider 73 is slidably arranged on the guide rail 72, the output end of the linear driving unit 71 is connected to the slider 73, the connecting unit includes the driving connecting rod 75 and the driving connecting member 74, the two ends of the driving connecting member 74 are respectively hinged with a first connecting rod 76 and a second connecting rod 77, wherein the first connecting rod 76 is fixedly connected to the driving connecting rod 75, and the second connecting rod 77 is fixedly connected to the slider 73, the two ends of the driving connecting rod 75 are respectively connected to the first supporting members 32 of the seat frame unit 3 on the left and right sides, and the slider 73 is driven by the linear driving unit 71 to move forward and backward along the guide rail 72 to drive the extension assembly to extend or retract. Specifically, the linear driving unit 71 is a linear motor, the fixed end of the linear driving unit 71 is installed on the front and rear connecting members, the guide rail 72 is located between the two left and right connecting members, the front and rear ends of the guide rail 72 are respectively fixedly connected to the two front and rear connecting members, and the guide rail 72 is arranged parallel to the left and right connecting members.
[0077] The seat frame support member 31 is provided with a third stopper 93 for limiting the extension of the extension assembly, specifically, the third stopper 93 is used to limit the movement position of the first connection member 35. The seat frame support member 31 is also provided with a second stopper 92 for limiting the retraction of the extension assembly, specifically, the second stopper 92 is used to limit the movement of the first connection member 35, and the sixth hinge point 56 is located between the second stopper 92 and the third stopper 93. In this embodiment, the seventh hinge point 57 is located between the ninth hinge point 59 and the third stopper 93.
[0078] In this embodiment, the seat frame support 31, the third support member 34, the fourth connecting member 38 and the sixth connecting member 30 form a four-bar linkage; the second seat frame member 312, the second backrest connecting member 22, the third backrest connecting member 23 and the first backrest connecting member 21 form a four-bar linkage; the seat frame support 31, the third support member 34, the second legrest connecting member 42, the first legrest connecting member 41 form a four-bar linkage.
[0079] The linear drive unit 71 drives the slider 73 to slide forward and backward on the guide rail 72. The slider 73 drives the driving connecting rod 75 to move back and forth through the driving connecting member 74, the first connecting rod 76 and the second connecting rod 77. The driving connecting rod 75 then drives the seat frame support members 31 and the first supporting member 32 on the left and right sides to move synchronously. The seat frame support members 31 and the first supporting member 32 drive the extension assembly to extend or retract. When the extension assembly is extended, the extension assembly changes from a sitting position to a TV position and then to a lying position in sequence; when the extension assembly is retracted, the extension assembly changes from a lying position to a TV position and then to a sitting position in sequence. A first limiting member 91 is provided on the first connecting member 35 for limiting the movement of the third supporting member 34. When the extension assembly is in the sitting position, the slider 73 moves to the side of the backrest unit 2, the first limiter 91 is clamped on the lower side of the seat frame support member 31 and the upper side of the third support member 34, and the second limiter 92 is a safety limiter, thereby limiting the extension assembly from continuing to move toward the side of the backrest unit 2. At this time, the linear drive unit 71 stops working and maintains a stable sitting position. The sixth connecting member 30 is provided with a fifth limiter 95, which is used to limit the movement of the third connecting member 37 and the third backrest connecting member 23. When the extension assembly is in the sitting position, the fifth limiter 95 abuts against the upper side of the third connecting member 37 and the upper side of the third backrest connecting member 23.
[0080] When the extension assembly is unfolded, the linear drive unit 71 drives the slider 73 to move toward the leg extension unit 4, and the slider 73 drives the driving connecting rod 75 to move back and forth through the driving connecting member 74, the first connecting rod 76 and the second connecting rod 77, and the driving connecting rod 75 drives the first support member 32, and the first support member 32 drives the second support member 33, and the second support member 33 pushes the second legrest board connector 42 to extend toward the front end of the seat frame unit 3, and the second legrest board connector 42 simultaneously pushes the first legrest board connector 41 and the third legrest board connector 43 until the leg extension unit 4 is fully unfolded, completing the conversion from the sitting posture to the TV posture. The unfolding of the leg extension unit 4 only requires one force transmission through the second legrest board connector 42, and the loss during the transmission process is extremely small, so that the extension assembly runs smoothly and saves energy.
[0081] When the extension assembly needs to continue to extend, the linear drive unit 71 drives the slider 73 to move toward the leg extension unit 4. At this time, the limiting effect of the first limit member 91 on the third support member 34 fails. When the extension assembly is extended to the TV posture state, the first limit member 91 is located on the lower side of the seat frame support member 31, and the second limit member 92 is a safety limit. At this time, the first limit member 91 and the second limit member 92 work together to make the support member 31 and the first connecting member 35 in a relatively static and stable state to prevent the seat frame unit 3 from collapsing. Under the action of the connecting rod 75, the first fixing rod 61, the second fixing rod 62 and the third fixing rod 63 and the first stopper 91 and the second stopper 92, the stretching assembly can maintain the TV posture state; when the linear drive unit 71 continues to drive the slider 73 to move toward the leg stretching unit 4, the first connecting member 35 moves downward, breaking away from the stopper of the second stopper 92, and moves to the position of contacting the third stopper 93, and the third stopper 93 is completely stuck on the lower side of the first connecting member 35, at this time, a stable lying posture is achieved. When the stretching assembly is folded, it can move in the opposite direction in sequence.
[0082] The first limiting member 91 is configured as a columnar structure, which can adapt to forces at different angles and play a role in stabilizing the limiting position when limiting the seat frame support member 31 and the third support member 34 at the same time. The fourth limiting member 94 is configured as a columnar structure, which is convenient for limiting the position of the seat frame support member 31 and the third support member 34 at different angles. The fifth limiting member 95 is configured as a columnar structure, which is convenient for limiting the position of the third connecting member 37 and the third backrest connecting member 23 at the same time.
[0083] The second limiting member 92 and the third limiting member 93 both adopt V-shaped limiting protrusions integrally formed with the seat frame support member 31, and their side surfaces are flat and can adapt to the edge of the first connecting member 35, making the limiting more stable and less prone to shaking and deformation.
[0084] Compared with the prior art in which the end of the second support member 33 away from the first support member 32 is hinged to the middle part of the third support member 34, in this embodiment, the end of the second support member 33 away from the first support member 32 is hinged to the second legrest connecting member 42 at the fourth hinge point 54, so that when the slider 73 moves the same distance, the extension speed of the extension component is reduced during the process of switching from the sitting state to the lying state, which can effectively avoid the feeling of weightlessness; and the driving component drives the extension component to move to make the process of switching the extension component from the lying state to the sitting state smoother.
[0085] When the extension component is in the sitting state and the TV state, the telescopic length of the back spring 100 is a1, and when the extension component is in the lying state, the telescopic length of the back spring 100 is a2, and the ratio of a1 to a2 is in the range of 0.7 to 0.9. In this embodiment, a back spring 100 is provided in the extension component, a1:a2=0.84, in the sitting state, the length of the back spring 100 is 105.22mm, when the extension component is extended, the leg extension unit 4 is extended first, and the back unit 2 is rotated; when the extension component is extended to the lying state, the back spring 100 is stretched to the longest, and the length is 125.02mm at this time; when the extension component is folded, the back unit 2 is rotated back first, and the leg extension unit 4 is folded. During the folding process, the contraction force of the back spring 100 makes the folding process natural and smooth, and the folding is easier.
[0086] Furthermore, two seat frame mounting members 8 are provided on the outer side of the seat frame support member 31 for mounting a seat cushion. In this embodiment, a seat frame mounting member 8 is provided on the outer side of the first seat frame member 311 and the outer side of the second seat frame member 312, respectively. The included angles between the lower side surfaces of the two seat frame mounting members 8 of the same seat frame support member 31 and the base 1 are B1 and B2 respectively. Figure 4 As shown, when the extension component is in a lying position, the values of B1 and B2 are both 13° to 23°; this conforms to the ergonomic structure, thereby making the lying position flatter and achieving a zero-gravity posture for the human body, which is more comfortable.
