AI Technical Summary
The lack of seat belts on existing engineering vehicle seats makes operators vulnerable to injury in accidents, and the existing protective devices are not easy to disengage quickly.
Design a movable handrail that includes a base, rocker arm, handrail, swing rod, and spring. The rocker arm drives the handrail to rotate to or away from the protective position, and the spring maintains the handrail position by releasing the spring, thus achieving rapid protection and release.
It provides rapid protection and deprotection functions, ensuring that the operator can quickly escape the seat in an accident to avoid injury, without affecting daily operation.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to armrest technology, particularly seat safety armrests. Background Technology
[0002] Due to the operating environment, it is difficult to install seat belts on existing engineering vehicles. Without safety protection, the operator is easily injured in the event of an accident. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a seat safety armrest that is conveniently installed on engineering vehicles to provide protection for operators, while also allowing operators to quickly remove the protection and leave the seat. This ensures that operators can easily enter and exit the seat and, in the event of an accident, can quickly release the protective restraints and escape danger from the seat.
[0004] The seat safety armrest of the present invention is implemented as follows: it includes movable armrests symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the seat. The movable armrest includes a base, a rocker arm swinging on the vertical plate of the base, an armrest driven by the rocker arm, a swing rod connected to the pivot of the rocker arm and linked with the rocker arm, and a spring connected between the free end of the swing rod and the vertical plate of the base. The pivot is located in the middle of the rocker arm and is horizontally rotatably connected to the vertical plate of the base. The spring is a compression spring. The connection point of the spring on the vertical plate of the base is arranged such that when the armrest swings with the rocker arm to the protective position for the operator, the free end of the swing rod is located on one side of the line connecting the connection point of the spring on the vertical plate of the base to the pivot of the pivot, and the spring force is in a released state. When the armrest swings with the rocker arm away from the protective position, the free end of the swing rod is located on the other side of the line connecting the connection point of the spring on the vertical plate of the base to the pivot of the pivot, and the spring force is in a released state.
[0005] In use, the safety armrests of this invention are installed on the left and right sides of the engineering vehicle seat. After the operator sits on the seat, the armrests are flipped inward to the protective position. At this time, because the free end of the swing arm is located on one side of the line connecting the connection point of the spring on the vertical plate of the base to the rotation axis of the shaft, the armrest is maintained in the protective position under the action of the spring. When the operator needs to leave the seat, the armrests are flipped outward to move away from the protective position. At this time, because the free end of the swing arm is located on the other side of the line connecting the connection point of the spring on the vertical plate of the base to the rotation axis of the shaft, the armrest is maintained away from the protective position under the action of the spring. Since the rotation axis of the shaft is located in the middle of the rocker arm, when the armrest is flipped, it either flips out of the base to the protective position to protect the operator, or it moves away from the outside of the seat, so that the operator can easily get off the seat without being obstructed by the armrest and the base.
[0006] Preferably, the handrail is L-shaped, with the vertical bar of the L-shaped handrail connected to the rocker arm and perpendicular to the vertical plate of the base, and the horizontal bar of the L-shaped handrail parallel to the vertical plate of the base. In this way, when the handrail is flipped out of the base to the protective position, the operator's hand can be placed on the vertical bar of the L-shaped handrail, and the horizontal bar of the L-shaped handrail extends in front of the operator to protect the operator.
[0007] Preferably, the spring is a V-shaped spring, with one end of the V-shaped spring rotatably connected to the free end of the swing arm and the other end of the V-shaped spring rotatably connected to the vertical plate of the base. When the handrail is flipped inward to the protective position, and the horizontal bar of the L-shaped handrail is in a horizontal position, the elastic force of the V-shaped spring is completely released. When the handrail is flipped out of the base and away from the protective position, and the horizontal bar of the L-shaped handrail is in a vertical position, the elastic force of the V-shaped spring is completely released.
[0008] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the advantages of being convenient to install on engineering vehicles to provide protection for operators, and at the same time, it allows operators to quickly remove the protection and leave the seat, so as to ensure that operators can easily enter and exit the seat and can quickly remove the protective restraints and escape from the danger in the event of an accident.

Implementation
[0011] The seat safety armrest of the present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments: like Figure 1As shown, the seat includes movable armrests A symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides. The movable armrests A include a base 1, a rocker arm 2 swinging on the vertical plate 101 of the base 1, an armrest 3 driven by the rocker arm 2, a swing rod 5 connected to the pivot 4 of the rocker arm 2 and linked with the rocker arm 2, and a spring 6 connecting the free end of the swing rod 5 to the vertical plate 101 of the base 1. The pivot 4 is located in the middle of the rocker arm 2 and is horizontally rotatably connected to the vertical plate 101 of the base 1. The connection point B of the spring 6 on the vertical plate 101 of the base 1 is set such that when the armrest 3 swings with the rocker arm 2 to the protective position C for the operator, the free end D of the swing rod 5 is located on one side of the line connecting the connection point B of the spring 6 on the vertical plate 101 of the base 1 to the rotation axis E of the pivot 4. When the armrest 3 swings with the rocker arm 2 away from the protective position C, the free end D of the swing rod 5 is located on the other side of the line connecting the connection point B of the spring 6 on the vertical plate 101 of the base 1 to the rotation axis E of the pivot 4.
[0012] Preferably, the handrail 3 is L-shaped, with the vertical bar 301 of the L-shaped handrail connected to the rocker arm 2 and perpendicular to the vertical plate 101 of the base 1, and the horizontal bar 302 of the L-shaped handrail parallel to the vertical plate 101 of the base 1.
[0013] Preferably, the spring 6 is a V-shaped spring, with one end of the V-shaped spring rotatably connected to the rotating part of the free end D of the swing arm 5, and the other end of the V-shaped spring rotatably connected to the rotating part 7 of the vertical plate 101 of the base 1. When the handrail 3 is flipped inward to the protective position C, so that the horizontal bar 302 of the L-shaped handrail is in the horizontal position, the elastic force of the V-shaped spring is completely released. When the handrail 3 is flipped out of the base 1 and away from the protective position C, so that the horizontal bar 302 of the L-shaped handrail is in the vertical position, the elastic force of the V-shaped spring is completely released.
[0014] Preferably, the rocker arm 2 is hook-shaped, which ensures that the armrest 3 can be flipped from the outside of the seat into the protective position C, or from the protective position C out of the seat.
