[0047] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.
[0048] The footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0049] As Figures 1-4 shown, the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention includes a bottom plate 1, a first cover plate 2 and a first massage component 4. The first cover plate 2 is rotatably arranged on the bottom plate 1 between a first position and a second position around a first axis.
[0050] A first receiving area is formed between the first cover plate 2 in the second position and the bottom plate 1, and at least a part of the foot can be placed in the first receiving area.
[0051] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the first massage component 4 is disposed in the first accommodation area and is used to massage one of the instep and the rear side of the heel, that is, the first massage component 4 is disposed at the top of the first accommodation area and is used to massage the instep or the rear side of the heel.
[0052] It can be understood that after the first cover plate 2 rotates forward, the first massage component 4 can contact the instep, so as to massage the instep. After the first cover plate 2 rotates backward, the first massage component 4 can contact the rear side of the heel, so as to massage the rear side of the heel.
[0053] Preferably, when the first cover plate 2 rotates forward, the first massage component 4 is used to massage the instep.
[0054] Thus, the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention can relieve foot fatigue and improve foot comfort.
[0055] In some embodiments, as Figures 1-4 shown, the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention further includes a second cover plate 3 and a second massage component 5. The second cover plate 3 is rotatably disposed on the bottom plate 1 between a third position and a fourth position around a second axis.
[0056] A closed space is formed among the first cover plate 2 located at the first position, the second cover plate 3 located at the third position and the bottom plate 1. A second accommodation area is formed between the second cover plate 3 located at the fourth position and the bottom plate 1. The second massage component 5 is disposed in the second accommodation area. The first accommodation area and the second accommodation area form an accommodation area 100 for accommodating the foot. The second massage component 5 is used to massage the other of the instep and the rear side of the heel. The extending direction of the first axis (such as Figure 1 the left - right direction in
[0057] is parallel to the extending direction of the second axis. That is to say, an accommodation area 100 is formed among the first cover plate 2 located at the second position, the second cover plate 3 located at the fourth position and the bottom plate 1. Among them, the second massage component 5 is disposed in the second accommodation area and is used to massage the other of the instep and the rear side of the heel.
[0058] Specifically, both the first massage component 4 and the second massage component 5 are disposed at the top or side of the accommodation area 100.
[0059] It can be understood that the second cover plate 3 can rotate forward or backward. After the second cover plate 3 rotates forward, the second massage component 5 can contact the instep, so as to massage the instep. After the second cover plate 3 rotates backward, the second massage component 5 can contact the rear side of the heel, so as to massage the rear side of the heel.
[0060] Preferably, when the second cover plate 3 rotates backward, the second massage component 5 is used to massage the rear side of the heel.
[0061] Therefore, after the foot is placed in the accommodating area 100, the first massage component 4 can massage the instep, and the second massage component 5 can massage the back of the heel, thereby performing a multi-directional massage on the foot, which can effectively relieve foot fatigue.
[0062] It should be noted that the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention has an open state and a closed state. Figure 1 As shown, the first cover plate 2 is located at the first position, and the second cover plate 3 is located at the third position; when the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention is in the open state, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first cover plate 2 is located at the second position, and the second cover plate 3 is located at the fourth position.
[0063] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first massage component 4 is arranged on the surface of the first cover plate 2 facing the first accommodating area, and the second massage component 5 is arranged on the surface of the second cover plate 3 facing the second accommodating area.
[0064] It can be understood that the bottom plate 1 has a first surface 106, the first cover plate 2 has a second surface 203 and a third surface 204 opposite to each other in the thickness direction thereof, and the second cover plate 3 has a fourth surface 303 and a fifth surface 304 opposite to each other in the thickness direction thereof. Among them, the first surface 106 is a surface of the bottom plate 1 adjacent to the first cover plate 2 in the thickness direction, the second surface 203 is a surface of the first cover plate 2 adjacent to the bottom plate 1 in the thickness direction, the third surface 204 is a surface of the first cover plate 2 away from the bottom plate 1 in the thickness direction, the fourth surface 303 is a surface of the second cover plate 3 adjacent to the bottom plate 1 in the thickness direction, and the fifth surface 304 is a surface of the second cover plate 3 away from the bottom plate 1 in the thickness direction.
[0065] In other words, the first surface 106 is the surface of the base plate 1 facing the accommodating area 100, the second surface 203 is the surface of the first cover plate 2 facing the first accommodating area, the third surface 204 is the surface of the first cover plate 2 facing away from the first accommodating area, the fourth surface 303 is the surface of the second cover plate 3 facing the second accommodating area, and the fifth surface 304 is the surface of the second cover plate 3 facing away from the second accommodating area.
[0066] Furthermore, the second surface 203 is also provided with a first groove for accommodating the instep, and the first massage component 4 is arranged in the first groove. The fourth surface 303 is also provided with a second groove for accommodating the back of the heel, and the second massage component 5 is arranged in the second groove, so as to improve the comfort of the foot. Specifically, the first massage component 4 includes at least one first air bag 41 located in the first groove, and the second massage component 5 includes at least one second air bag 51 located in the second groove. Therefore, the foot rest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention can effectively relieve foot fatigue.
[0067] In some embodiments, the footrest of the embodiments of the present invention further includes a third massage component 6, and the third massage component 6 is disposed on the surface of the bottom plate 1 facing the accommodation area, that is, the third massage component 6 is disposed on the first surface 106 of the bottom plate 1.
[0068] Wherein, the third massage component 6 includes a third airbag 61, a fourth airbag 62 and a fifth airbag 63. The fourth airbag 62 is located between the third airbag 61 and the fifth airbag 63 in the transverse direction of the bottom plate (such as Figure 1 the front - rear direction in the figure). The third airbag 61 is used for massaging the sole of the foot, the fourth airbag 62 is used for massaging the arch of the foot, and the fifth airbag 63 is used for massaging the bottom of the heel.
[0069] Specifically, as Figures 2-4 shown, the first massage component 4 includes a first airbag 41, the second massage component 5 includes a second airbag 42, the third massage component 6 includes a third plate airbag 61, a fourth airbag 62 and a fifth airbag 63. The fourth airbag 62 is located between the third airbag 61 and the fifth airbag 63 in the transverse direction of the bottom plate 1. Therefore, the first airbag 41, the second airbag 42, the third airbag 43, the fourth airbag 51 and the fifth airbag 61 can respectively play a massage effect by adjusting the inflation amount, thereby improving the foot comfort and relieving foot fatigue.
[0070] Furthermore, there are multiple third airbags 61 and multiple fourth airbags 62. The third airbags 61 are used for massaging the sole of the foot, the fourth airbags 62 are used for massaging the arch of the foot, and the fifth airbags 63 are used for massaging the bottom of the heel. It can be understood that the multiple third airbags 61 are evenly arranged, and the fourth airbags 62 are stacked and staggered. Therefore, the multiple third airbags 61 can be inflated and deflated simultaneously or sequentially to play a massage effect, and the multiple fourth airbags 62 are inflated and deflated sequentially to play a rolling massage effect.
[0071] Thus, the footrest 10 of the embodiments of the present invention can effectively relieve foot fatigue.
[0072] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 shown, the third surface 204 of the first cover plate 2 located at the first position and the fifth surface 304 of the second cover plate 3 located at the third position are joined together to form the main surface of the footrest. That is to say, after the third surface 204 of the first cover plate 2 rotated to the first position and the fifth surface 304 of the second cover plate 3 rotated to the third position are aligned, the third surface 204 of the first cover plate 2 and the fifth surface 304 of the second cover plate 3 are joined together to form the main surface of the footrest. Therefore, passengers can directly place their feet on the main surface of the footrest, can take a temporary rest for their feet, and can also adjust their sitting postures by foot support.
[0073] In some embodiments, the footrest of the embodiments of the present invention further includes a fourth massage component, and the fourth massage component is provided on the main surface of the footrest.
[0074] It can be understood that the fourth massage component can be an airbag or a plurality of first protrusions provided on the main surface of the footrest.
[0075] Optionally, the fourth massage component further includes a soft layer provided on the main surface of the footrest.
[0076] Furthermore, the plurality of first protrusions on the main surface of the footrest can be formed on the third surface 204 of the first cover plate 2 and the fifth surface 304 of the second cover plate 3, or can be formed on the soft layer on the main surface of the footrest.
[0077] Preferably, a rubber layer is provided on the main surface of the footrest, and the plurality of first protrusions are formed on the main surface of the rubber layer. Therefore, after the feet are placed, the comfort level can be improved, and fatigue can be effectively relieved.
[0078] Specifically, the rubber layer includes a first part and a second part. The first part is provided on the third surface 204 of the first cover plate 2, and the second part is provided on the fifth surface 304 of the second cover plate 3.
[0079] In some embodiments, as Figures 1-4 shown, the bottom plate 1 includes a first end 102 and a second end 103. The first end 102 and the second end 103 are oppositely arranged in the lateral direction of the bottom plate 1. The first cover plate 2 includes a third end 201 and a fourth end 202. The third end 201 and the fourth end 202 are oppositely arranged in the lateral direction of the first cover plate 2. The second cover plate 3 includes a fifth end 301 and a sixth end 302. The fifth end 301 and the sixth end 302 are oppositely arranged in the lateral direction of the second cover plate 3.
[0080] It should be noted that the lateral direction of the bottom plate 1 is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (such as the left - right direction in Figure 1 ) and the thickness direction of the bottom plate 1. The lateral direction of the first cover plate 2 is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (such as the left - right direction in Figure 1 ) and the thickness direction of the first cover plate 2. The lateral direction of the second cover plate 3 is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (such as the left - right direction in Figure 1 ) and the thickness direction of the second cover plate 3.
[0081] The third end 201 of the first cover plate 2 is rotatably connected to the first end 102 of the bottom plate 1. Therefore, the first cover plate 2 can be rotatably provided on the bottom plate 1 between a first position and a second position about a first axis. The fifth end 301 of the second cover plate 3 is rotatably connected to the second end 103 of the bottom plate 1. Therefore, the second cover plate 3 can be rotatably provided on the bottom plate 1 between a third position and a fourth position about a second axis.
[0082] As Figures 1-4As shown, an inlet / outlet 1001 communicating with the accommodation area 100 is formed between the fourth end 202 of the first cover plate 2 located at the second position and the sixth end 302 of the second cover plate 3 located at the fourth position. Therefore, the feet can enter and exit the accommodation area 100 through the inlet / outlet 1001, improving convenience.
[0083] In some embodiments, as Figures 1-4 shown, the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention further includes a second driver 13 and a third driver 14. The second driver 13 is provided at the first end 102 of the bottom plate 1, and the second driver 13 is connected to the first cover plate 2, so as to be able to drive the first cover plate 2 to rotate around the first axis. The third driver 14 is provided at the second end 103 of the bottom plate 1, and the third driver 14 is connected to the second cover plate 3, so as to be able to drive the second cover plate 3 to rotate around the second axis.
[0084] It can be understood that the second driver 13 and the third driver 14 can be manual switches, such as a crank, a push rod, a handle or other manual control rods. The second driver 13 and the third driver 14 can also be motors.
[0085] That is to say, the first cover plate 2 and the second cover plate 3 of the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention can be specifically set to be manually or motor-driven according to user needs and design requirements.
[0086] Optionally, the first end 102 of the bottom plate 1 has a first rotating shaft 104, and the first cover plate 2 can rotate around the axis of the first rotating shaft 104, wherein the first axis coincides with the axis of the first rotating shaft 104, so as to improve the stability of the first cover plate 2.
[0087] Optionally, the second end 103 of the bottom plate 1 has a second rotating shaft (not shown in the figure), and the second cover plate 3 can rotate around the axis of the second rotating shaft, wherein the second axis coincides with the axis of the second rotating shaft, so as to improve the stability of the second cover plate 3.
[0088] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the footrest 10 further includes a first limiting component 11 and a second limiting component 12. The first limiting component 11 is connected between the bottom plate 1 and the first cover plate 2. Therefore, the first limiting component 11 can limit the rotation of the first cover plate 2 between the first position and the second position, and prevent the first cover plate 2 from exceeding the second position. The second limiting component 12 is connected between the bottom plate 1 and the second cover plate 3. Therefore, the second limiting component 12 can limit the rotation of the second cover plate 3 between the third position and the fourth position, and prevent the second cover plate 3 from exceeding the fourth position.
[0089] Specifically, as Figure 2As shown in the figure, the first limiting component 11 includes a first connecting rod 1101 and a second connecting rod 1102. One end of the first connecting rod 1101 in the length direction is hinged to the first cover plate 2, the other end of the first connecting rod 1101 in the length direction is hinged to one end of the second connecting rod 1102 in the length direction, and the other end of the second connecting rod 1102 in the length direction is hinged to the bottom plate 1. Therefore, during the rotation of the first cover plate 2 between the first position and the second position, the first limiting component 11 can expand and contract. When the first cover plate 2 reaches the second position, the first limiting component 11 reaches the limit position and can limit the continuous rotation of the first cover plate 2, thereby ensuring the rotation of the first cover plate 2 between the first position and the second position.
[0090] As Figure 3 shown in the figure, the second limiting component 12 includes a third connecting rod 1201 and a fourth connecting rod 1202. One end of the third connecting rod 1201 in the length direction is hinged to the second cover plate 3, the other end of the third connecting rod 1201 in the length direction is hinged to one end of the fourth connecting rod 1202 in the length direction, and the other end of the fourth connecting rod 1202 in the length direction is hinged to the bottom plate 1. Therefore, during the rotation of the second cover plate 3 between the third position and the fourth position, the second limiting component 12 can expand and contract. When the second cover plate 3 reaches the fourth position, the second limiting component 12 reaches the limit position and can limit the continuous rotation of the second cover plate 3, thereby ensuring the rotation of the second cover plate 3 between the third position and the fourth position.
[0091] Preferably, when the first cover plate 2 is in the first position, the second cover plate 3 is in the third position; when the first cover plate 2 is in the second position, the second cover plate 3 is in the fourth position. That is to say, the first cover plate 2 and the second cover plate 3 rotate simultaneously. When the first cover plate 2 rotates from the first position to the second position, the second cover plate 3 rotates from the third position to the fourth position. When the first cover plate 2 rotates from the second position to the first position, the second cover plate 3 rotates from the fourth position to the third position. Therefore, the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention can be in a closed state and an open state respectively, which is beneficial to improving the experience.
[0092] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1-3As shown, the first cover plate 2 rotates between the first position and the second position by an angle greater than or equal to 20 degrees and less than or equal to 30 degrees, and the second cover plate 3 rotates between the third position and the fourth position by an angle greater than or equal to 105 degrees and less than or equal to 115 degrees. Preferably, the first cover plate 2 rotates by an angle of 26 degrees between the first position and the second position, and the second cover plate 3 rotates by an angle of 110 degrees between the third position and the fourth position. The selected angles are set according to the average foot size of the user group, which can provide a suitable accommodation space for the feet of most users and reduce the number of adjustments. It can be understood that the first cover plate 2 can be controlled to stop at any position between the first position and the second position. Similarly, the second cover plate 3 can be controlled to stop at any position between the third position and the fourth position, which can be adaptively adjusted according to the feet in the accommodation area or can be personalized adjusted according to the user's control instructions to improve the user experience.
[0093] It can be understood that during the process of the first cover plate 2 rotating from the first position to the second position, the first cover plate 2 rotates counterclockwise by 26 degrees. During the process of the second cover plate 3 rotating from the third position to the fourth position, the second cover plate 3 rotates clockwise by 110 degrees. Therefore, the space of the accommodation area 100 is large enough to place the feet of the passenger, and will not be too large to affect the massage of the feet.
[0094] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention further includes a foot mat 8. The foot mat 8 is provided on the first surface 106 of the bottom plate 1. The foot mat 8 has a main surface that is away from the bottom plate 1 in the thickness direction of the foot mat 8. A plurality of second protrusions are provided on the main surface of the foot mat 8, and an avoidance hole penetrating the foot mat 8 is provided on the main surface of the foot mat 8 for avoiding the first massage component 4.
[0095] Preferably, the foot mat 8 is a rubber mat.
[0096] Therefore, the foot mat 8 can improve the comfort of the foot and will not affect the operation of the first massage component 4.
[0097] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a heating element 7 is further provided on the first surface 106 of the bottom plate 1.
[0098] Optionally, the heating element 7 is provided on the sixth surface of the foot mat 8, or the heating element 7 is provided inside the foot mat 8.
[0099] Preferably, the heating element 7 is provided inside the foot mat 8.
[0100] Optionally, the heating element 7 can be heated by an electric heating method, or by introducing hot air, or by other methods.
[0101] Preferably, the heating element 7 is a heating wire, so that the heating element 7 heats by means of electric heating. Therefore, the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention can heat the feet and improve comfort.
[0102] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 shown, the accommodation area 100 is in two parts, and the two-part accommodation area is arranged at intervals in the longitudinal direction of the bottom plate 1. Specifically, one part of the accommodation area is located on the left side for placing the left foot, and the other part of the accommodation area is located on the right side for placing the right foot. The two parts of the accommodation area can be connected or separated by a partition in the middle.
[0103] As Figures 2-4 shown, the footrest 10 of the embodiment of the present invention further includes an air pump 9 and a valve controller 10. The air pump 9 is connected to the valve controller 10, and the valve controller 10 integrates the valves of the first airbag 41, the second airbag 42, the third airbag 43, the fourth airbag 51 and the fifth airbag 61. Therefore, multiple valves can be controlled through the valve controller 10, so as to realize the inflation and deflation of the first airbag 41, the second airbag 42, the third airbag 43, the fourth airbag 51 and the fifth airbag 61.
[0104] As Figure 4 shown, the first surface 106 of the bottom plate 1 is provided with a framework 105 formed by a plurality of ribs, so that the strength of the bottom plate 1 can be improved.
[0105] The seat of the embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0106] As Figures 1-10 shown, the seat of the embodiment of the present invention includes a seat body 20 and the footrest 10 of any one of the above embodiments, and the bottom plate 1 is movably arranged on the seat body 20.
[0107] As Figure 7 and Figure 10 shown, the seat further includes a first driver 30. The first driver 30 is arranged on the seat body 20, and the first driver 30 is connected to the bottom plate 1 to drive the bottom plate 1 to move.
[0108] Specifically, as Figures 8-9 shown, the bottom plate 1 is rotatably arranged on the back of the seat body 20. Therefore, the first driver 30 can drive the bottom plate 1 to rotate, so that the footrest 10 can be folded onto the back of the seat body 20, saving space.
[0109] Preferably, the first driver 30 is a motor.
[0110] It can be understood that when the footrest 10 is not needed, the first driver 30 drives the footrest 10 to rotate to the back of the seat body 20. When the footrest 10 is needed for temporary footrest, the first driver 30 drives the footrest 10 to rotate to the footrest position. When foot massage and heating are required, the first cover plate 2 is driven by the second driver 13, and the second cover plate 3 is driven by the third driver 14 to keep the footrest 10 in an open state.
[0111] In some embodiments, as Figure 10 shown, the seat further includes a first bracket 40, a second bracket 50, and a third bracket 60. The first bracket 40 and the second bracket 50 are both fixed on the seat body 20. The bottom plate 1 is rotatably arranged on the first bracket 40. The first driver 30 is fixed on the second bracket 50. The third bracket 60 is connected between the first bracket 40 and the second bracket 50. Therefore, the third bracket 60 maintains the relative positions of the first bracket 40 and the second bracket 50, ensuring stable transmission between the gear 70 and the toothed plate 1011.
[0112] Specifically, the third bracket 60 includes a first connecting portion 61, a second connecting portion 62, and a third connecting portion 63. The first connecting portion 61 is connected to the first bracket 40, and the second connecting portion 62 and the third connecting portion 63 are connected to the second bracket 50.
[0113] As Figure 10 shown, the bottom plate 1 has a fourth bracket 101. The fourth bracket 101 is hinged to the first bracket 40. The fourth bracket 101 is provided with a toothed plate 1011. A rotatable gear 70 is provided on the second bracket 50. The first driver 30 is connected to the gear 70, and the gear 70 meshes with the toothed plate 1011. Therefore, the first driver 30 can drive the bottom plate 1 to rotate, and thus can drive the footrest 10 to rotate.
