Transmission damping structure and armrest table panel

Abstract

The present application discloses a transmission damping structure and an armrest table top. As the sliding member slides upward, the trigger member triggers the starting member for the first time, and the gear condition slides upward, thereby driving the transmission gear set meshing therewith to rotate forward, thereby driving the rotating member to rotate forward relative to the sliding member. Then, as the sliding member slides downward, the trigger member triggers the starting member again, and the gear condition slides downward, thereby driving the transmission gear set to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the rotating member to rotate in the opposite direction. When it is applied to the armrest and table top assembly, the table top assembly first slides upward along the slide rail until the table top body extends above the armrest, and then as the sliding plate continues to slide upward, the table top body is pushed to rotate to a horizontal state, thereby realizing automatic expansion of the table top body, and the overall structure is simple. The damping assembly limits the sliding speed of the gear condition through the mutual restraint between the first elastic member, the second elastic member and the damping member, and can control the rotation rate of the table top body to avoid instantaneous opening or closing of the table top.

[0058] Transmission damping structure:

[0059] The transmission damping structure in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the transmission damping structure includes an actuating assembly arranged on an action member and a damping assembly arranged on a fixed member. The action member includes a sliding member and a rotating member rotatably mounted on the sliding member through a rotating shaft. The sliding member is slidably mounted on the fixed member.

[0060] Figure 1 、 2The fixed component and the moving component shown are the armrest 10 and the table top assembly 20, respectively, wherein the table top assembly 20 includes a sliding plate 201 and a table top body 202 rotatably mounted on the sliding plate 201, and the sliding plate 201 is slidably mounted on the armrest 10. The sliding plate 201 is a sliding part, and the table top body 202 is a rotating part. During actuation, the sliding plate 201 first drives the table top body 202 to slide on the armrest 10. When the sliding plate 201 slides to the uppermost end, the table top body 202 is completely extended above the armrest 10. At the same time, the actuating assembly cooperates with the damping assembly, and then the sliding plate 201 continues to slide upward, and the transmission between the actuating assembly and the damping assembly drives the table top body 202 to rotate relative to the sliding plate 201, so that the table top body 202 rotates to a horizontal position. For the actuation process of the table top assembly 20, please refer to Figures 9-11 , which will be introduced in detail later.

[0061] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the actuating assembly includes a trigger member 01 for mounting on a sliding member and a transmission gear set 02 for mounting on a rotating shaft;

[0062] The damping assembly includes a base 03 having a slide groove 31, a starting member 04 disposed in the base 03, a gear member 05 and a blocking member 06 slidably mounted on the slide groove 31, and a damping member 07 connecting the base 03, the gear member 05, and the blocking member 06. The gear member 05 is locked in the base 03. A first elastic member 08 is disposed between the gear member 05 and the base 03. A second elastic member 09 is disposed between the gear member 05 and the blocking member 06. The gear member 05 is configured to engage with the transmission gear set 02.

[0063] When the sliding member slides upward until the trigger member 01 triggers the starting member 04 for the first time, the gear condition 05 is unlocked and the first elastic member 08 is triggered to push the gear condition 05 to slide upward to drive the transmission gear set 02 to rotate forward. When the sliding member slides downward until the trigger member 01 triggers the starting member 04 again, the damping member 07 is unlocked and the second elastic member 09 is triggered to push the gear condition 05 to slide downward to drive the transmission gear set 02 to rotate in the reverse direction.

[0064] Specifically, the base 03 is fixed on the fixed component, and the base 03 remains stationary during the actuation process. A slide groove 31 is provided on the base 03, and the gear condition 05 and the blocking member 06 can be slidably installed in the slide groove 31, wherein the blocking member 06 is located above the gear condition 05. The base 03 is also provided with a mounting seat 32 below the slide groove 31 for installing the starting member 04. When the gear condition 05 and the damping member 07 are locked, they partially extend into the mounting seat 32 and are locked by the starting member 04.

[0065] Among them, the gear condition 05 is used to mesh with the transmission gear set 02 to achieve transmission. When the transmission gear set 02 slides with the sliding member to mesh with the gear condition 05, the transmission gear set 02 includes a driving gear 21, a transmission gear 22, and a shaft gear 23 that are meshed and connected in sequence. The driving gear 21 is used to mesh with the gear condition 05, and the transmission gear 22 is used to achieve transmission between the driving gear 21 and the shaft gear 23. The shaft gear 23 is fixed to the shaft so that the shaft gear 23 rotates synchronously with the shaft. According to the required rotation angle between the sliding member and the rotating member, the transmission ratio between the three gears can be adjusted to achieve reasonable transmission.

[0066] like Figure 4 、 5 As shown, in the initial state, the first elastic member 08 is connected between the gear condition 05 and the mounting seat 32, the first elastic member 08 is compressed when the gear condition 05 is locked, the second elastic member 09 is connected between the gear condition 05 and the blocking member 06, and the damping member 07 connects the blocking member 06, the gear condition 05 and the mounting seat 32 to limit the sliding of the gear condition 05 and the blocking member 06.

[0067] like Figure 6 As shown, when the sliding member slides upward and drives the trigger member 01 to trigger the starting member 04 for the first time, the starting member 04 is actuated to unlock the gear condition 05. The gear condition 05 slides upward along the slide groove 31 under the elastic force of the first elastic member 08, and at the same time pushes the second elastic member 09 and the blocking member 06 to slide upward. Since the gear condition 05 is engaged with the transmission gear set 02, the sliding of the gear condition 05 drives the transmission gear set 02 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating shaft between the rotating member and the sliding member to rotate, and realizing the positive rotation of the rotating member relative to the sliding member.

[0068] like Figure 7 As shown, when the sliding member slides downward and drives the trigger member 01 to trigger the starting member 04 again, the starting member 04 unlocks the damping member 07, triggering the second elastic member 09 to push the gear condition 05 to slide downward, thereby driving the transmission gear set 02 to rotate in the opposite direction, realizing the anti-phase rotation of the rotating member relative to the sliding member.

[0069] The transmission damping structure in the embodiment of the present application, as the sliding part slides upward, the trigger part 01 triggers the starting part 04 for the first time, and the unlocked gear condition 05 slides upward, thereby driving the transmission gear group 02 meshing with it to rotate forward, thereby driving the rotating part to rotate forward relative to the sliding part, and then as the sliding part slides downward, the trigger part 01 triggers the starting part 04 again, and the unlocked gear condition 05 slides downward, thereby driving the transmission gear group 02 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the rotating part to rotate in the opposite direction; applying it to the armrest 10 and table board assembly 20 can realize the automatic unfolding of the table board body 202, and the overall structure is simple; and in the damping assembly, the mutual restraint between the first elastic part 08, the second elastic part 09 and the damping part 07 limits the sliding speed of the gear condition 05, which can control the rotation rate of the table board body 202, avoid the table board body 202 from being opened or closed instantaneously, and reduce the risk of use by users.

[0070] In one embodiment, Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, the damping member 07 includes an elastic pull rope 71 and a hook member 72. One end of the elastic pull rope 71 is connected to the hook member 72 and locked in the base 03, and the other end passes through the blocking member 06 and the gear condition 05 in sequence and is fixed on the blocking member 06.

[0071] When the rack condition 05 is locked, the first elastic member 08 is compressed, and the elastic pull cord 71 is in a tensioned state to compress the second elastic member 09 and restrict the blocking member 06 from sliding. When the rack condition 05 is unlocked, the first elastic member 08 releases energy to push the rack condition 05 and the blocking member 06 to slide upward, and the elastic pull cord 71 is further tightened and further compresses the second elastic member 09. At this time, the blocking member 06 slides to the top of the slide groove 31.

[0072] When the trigger member 01 triggers the starter member 04 again, the hook member 72 is unlocked, the elastic pull rope 71 is released to trigger the second elastic member 09, and the second elastic member 09 releases energy to push the gear member 05 to slide downward.

[0073] Specifically, the elastic rope 72 is elastic and is in a tensioned state when the hook member 71 is locked, thereby providing elastic force between the gear member 05, the blocking member 06 and the base 03 to limit the positional relationship between the three. Figure 4 、 Figure 5 In the initial state shown, when the rack member 05 is locked, the rack member 05 compresses the first elastic member 08 , and the blocking member 06 compresses the second elastic member 09 under the elastic force of the elastic pull rope 72 .

[0074] When the gear condition 05 is unlocked, the first elastic member 08 releases energy to push the gear condition 05 to slide upward, and the gear condition 05 pushes the second elastic member 09 and the blocking member 06 to slide upward until the blocking member 06 slides to the top of the slide groove 31. During this process, the elastic pull rope 72 is further tightened, thereby limiting the speed at which the gear condition 05 slides upward, preventing the gear condition 05 from sliding too fast, thereby achieving a damping effect.

[0075] When the trigger member 01 triggers the starting member 04 again, the hook member 72 is unlocked, and the elastic pull rope 71 releases energy to unlock the second elastic member 09. At this time, the second elastic member 09 releases energy in the reverse direction to push the gear condition 05 to slide downward. During the downward sliding process of the gear condition 05, the first elastic member 08 is squeezed. The first elastic member 08 provides elastic force to slow down the sliding speed of the gear condition 05, and also achieves a damping effect.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present application, the damping member 07 is configured as an elastic pull rope 71 and is locked by a hook member 72, which not only realizes the coordination of the actuation process of the gear condition 05 and the blocking member 06, but also realizes the damping effect in coordination with the first elastic member 08 and the second elastic member 09.

[0077] Alternatively, as Figure 9 As shown, a damping gear 011 may be provided on one side of the rack member 05 to further limit the sliding speed of the rack member 05 and improve the damping effect.

[0078] In one embodiment, Figure 4-Figure 8 As shown, the actuating assembly further includes a telescopic push rod 010 for being mounted on the sliding member, and a stopper 61 is provided on the blocking member 06 to cooperate with the telescopic push rod 010;

[0079] The damping member 07 further includes a movable sleeve 73. One end of the elastic pull rope 71 is connected to the hook member 72. The other end passes through the movable sleeve 73 and then passes through the blocking member 06 and the gear condition 05 in sequence before being fixed to the blocking member 06.

[0080] After the trigger member 01 triggers the starting member 04 again and drives the transmission gear set 02 to rotate in the opposite direction, the telescopic push rod 010 is controlled to extend, and the sliding member continues to slide down so that the telescopic push rod 101 cooperates with the block 61 to push the blocking member 06 to slide downward, and the blocking member 06 pushes the movable sleeve 73 to drive the hook member 72 to slide down until the hook member 72 is locked in the base 03. At this time, the telescopic push rod 010 is controlled to retract.

[0081] Specifically, the telescopic push rod 010 can be controlled to extend and retract using a solenoid valve, such as Figure 8As shown, after the slider slides down to the trigger member 01 and triggers the starter member 04 again, the telescopic push rod 010 is controlled to extend, so that the telescopic push rod 010 can cooperate with the block 61 to drive the blocking member 06 to slide downward as the slider slides down. When the blocking member 06 slides down to abut against the movable sleeve 73, as the slider continues to slide down, the blocking member 06 pushes the movable sleeve 73 and the hook member 72 to slide downward, so that the hook member 72 slides back into the mounting seat 32 and is re-locked. The telescopic push rod 010 is then controlled to retract, so that the slider can continue to slide down and reset.

[0082] The embodiment of the present application is provided with a telescopic push rod 010 and a movable sleeve 73. After the hook member 72 is unlocked and the gear condition 05 is driven to reset, the blocking member 06 is pushed by the sliding member to reset the hook member 72, so that the damping assembly returns to the Figure 4 、 Figure 5 The initial state is shown.

[0083] In one embodiment, Figure 4-Figure 8 As shown, the gear member 05 is provided with a first shaft hole 51 and a first pulley 52, the blocking member 06 is provided with a second shaft hole 62 and a second pulley 63, and the movable sleeve 73 is installed in the first shaft hole 51;

[0084] One end of the elastic pull rope 71 is connected to the hook member 72 , and the other end passes through the movable sleeve 73 and the second shaft hole 62 , then passes around the second pulley 63 and the first pulley 52 in sequence, and is then fixed on the blocking member 06 .

[0085] Specifically, the first axial hole 51 and the second axial hole 62 are both vertically continuous, and their axes are aligned. The outer diameter of the movable sleeve 73 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first axial hole 51, allowing the movable sleeve 73 to move freely within the first axial hole 51. The first pulley 52 and the second pulley 63 are disposed on the same side. One end of the elastic pull rope 71 is connected to the hook 72, and the other end passes through the movable sleeve 73 and the second axial hole 62 in sequence, then continues around the second pulley 63 and the first pulley 52 before being secured to the blocking member 06. The outer diameter of the movable sleeve 73 is larger than the inner diameter of the second axial hole 62 and smaller than the outer diameter of the hook 72, allowing the movable sleeve 73 to interpose between the hook 72 and the blocking member 06.

[0086] In one embodiment, Figure 4-Figure 8 As shown, the base 03 is provided with an inner sleeve 33, the gear condition 05 is provided with a limiting sleeve 53, the limiting sleeve 53 is sleeved outside the inner sleeve 33, and the limiting sleeve 53 is provided with a limiting slot 531;

[0087] One end of the starter 04 is connected to the inner wall of the base 03 via a limiting elastic member 41, and the other end extends outside the base 03 as a trigger end 43. The starter 04 is also provided with a limiting block 42, which is engaged with the limiting slot 531 to lock the gear condition 05.

[0088] When the trigger member 01 triggers the starter member 04 for the first time, the trigger member 01 pushes the trigger end 43 to cause the starter member 04 to compress the limit elastic member 41 , driving the limit block 42 to disengage from the limit slot 531 to unlock the gear condition 05 .

[0089] Specifically, the mounting seat 32 of the base 03 is provided with an inner sleeve 33, and a limiting sleeve 53 is sleeved on the outside of the inner sleeve 33, which can limit the limiting sleeve 53 and guide the sliding of the gear condition 05. The starting member 04 is sleeved on the outside of the limiting sleeve 53 and the inner sleeve 33. One end of the starting member 04 contacts the inner wall of the mounting seat 32 through the limiting elastic member 41, and the opposite trigger end 43 extends outside the mounting seat 32. The limiting block 42 is provided at one end connected to the limiting elastic member 41 and extends toward the limiting sleeve 53. When the starting member 04 is not pushed, the limiting block 42 is engaged in the limiting slot 531 under the elastic force of the limiting elastic member 41. When the trigger member 01 pushes the trigger end 43, the limiting elastic member 41 is compressed, and the limiting block 42 is released from the limiting slot 531, thereby unlocking the gear condition 05.

[0090] In the embodiment of the present application, a limiting sleeve 53 is provided on the gear condition 05 , and a limiting slot 531 is opened on the limiting sleeve 53 , so that the gear condition 05 can be locked and unlocked by actuating the limiting block 42 on the starting member 04 .

[0091] In one embodiment, Figure 4-Figure 8 As shown, the rack condition 05 also includes a rack portion 54, a first axial hole 51 for installing the damping member 07 is provided in the rack portion 54, a first annular groove 55 for installing the first elastic member 08 is provided on the outer side of the first axial hole 51, an annular plate 56 is formed between the first axial hole 51 and the first annular groove 55, and a limiting sleeve 53 extends from the end of the annular plate 56.

[0092] Specifically, the outer surface of the rack portion 54 is provided with teeth that mesh with the transmission gear set 02. A first axial hole 51 is disposed within the rack portion 54. A first annular groove 55 is disposed outside the first axial hole 51 for mounting the first elastic member 08. The depth of the first annular groove 55 is determined based on the length of the first elastic member 08. A limiting sleeve 53 extends from the annular plate between the first axial hole 51 and the first annular groove 55. The entire rack portion 05 has a compact structure, saving space for the damping assembly.

[0093] In one embodiment, Figure 5-Figure 8As shown, the damping member 07 includes an elastic pull rope 71 and a hook member 72. One end of the elastic pull rope 71 is connected to the hook member 72. The wall of the inner sleeve 33 is provided with a clamping hole 331 and a spring piece 332 that are oppositely arranged. The spring piece 332 squeezes the hook member 72 to cooperate with the clamping hole 331.

[0094] A rotatable cam 44 is installed at the trigger end 43 of the starting member 04. When the trigger member 01 triggers the starting member 04 for the first time, the swinging end of the cam 44 swings against the outer wall of the limiting sleeve 53. When the trigger member 01 triggers the starting member 04 again, the starting member 04 drives the cam 44 to push the spring piece 332 to unlock the hook member 72.

[0095] Specifically, the locking hole 331 is opened on the wall of the inner sleeve 33, and the spring piece 332 is installed on the inner wall of the inner sleeve 33 and extends toward the side of the locking hole 331. When the hook member 72 is installed between the locking hole 331 and the spring piece 332, it will cooperate with the locking hole 331 under the pressure of the spring piece 332, thereby locking the hook member 72.

[0096] A rotatable cam 44 is installed below the trigger end 43 of the starter 04. A torsion spring is connected between the cam 44 and the trigger end 43. Under the action of the torsion spring, the cam 44 has a tendency to rotate toward the trigger end 43.

[0097] like Figure 5 、 Figure 7 As shown, during the process of the rack condition 05 being locked, the limiting sleeve 53 is inserted into the inner sleeve 33 to push the swing end of the cam 44 so that the cam 44 overcomes the torsional force of the torsion spring and rotates toward the side away from the trigger end 43 until the rack condition 05 is locked and the swing end of the cam 44 contacts the outer wall of the limiting sleeve 53. Figure 6 As shown, when the gear condition 05 is unlocked, the limiting sleeve 53 disengages from the inner sleeve 33, and the cam 44 rotates toward the trigger end 43 under the action of the torsion spring and remains in a horizontal state. At this time, as the sliding member drives the trigger member 01 to slide downward, the trigger member 01 pushes the starting member 04, driving the cam 44 to move toward one side of the inner sleeve 53. The cam 44 pushes the spring piece 332 away from the locking hole 331, thereby unlocking the hook member 72.

[0098] The embodiment of the present application achieves locking of the hook member 72 by providing a locking hole 331 and a spring piece 332 in the inner sleeve 33, and by providing a rotatable cam 44 on the starting member 04, it can unlock the gear condition 05 when the starting member 04 is triggered for the first time, and unlock the hook member 72 when it is triggered again. The overall structure is simple and ingenious.

[0099] In one embodiment, Figure 4-Figure 8As shown, the blocking member 06 is provided with a second axial hole 62 for mounting the damping member 07 , the outer side of the second axial hole 62 is provided with a second annular groove 64 for mounting the second elastic member 09 , and the upper end of the rack member 05 is provided with a third annular groove 57 ;

[0100] One end of the second elastic member 09 is installed in the second annular groove 64 , and the other end is installed in the third annular groove 57 .

[0101] Specifically, a second annular groove 64 is provided on the outer side of the second shaft hole 62 of the blocking member 06 to install the second elastic member 09. The depth of the second annular groove 64 is set according to the length of the second elastic member 09, and a third annular groove 57 is provided at the upper end of the gear condition 05. The two ends of the second elastic member 09 are respectively installed in the second annular groove 64 and the third annular groove 57.

[0102] Figures 1-8 A preferred embodiment of the transmission damping structure of the present application is provided. Figures 1-8 The structure shown in the figure explains the actuation process of the transmission damping structure:

[0103] like Figure 5 As shown, the damping assembly is in the initial state, the sliding member drives the trigger member 01 to slide to push the starting member 04, the starting member 04 compresses the limiting elastic member 41 to act, and the limiting block 42 in the starting member 04 is separated from the limiting slot 531 in the limiting sleeve 53, thereby unlocking the gear condition 05, and the gear condition 05 slides upward under the elastic force of the first elastic member 08. When the gear condition 05 slides upward, it drives the transmission gear set 02 meshing with it to rotate forward. In this process, the damping member 07 provides a damping force to limit the sliding speed of the gear condition 05, and at the same time pushes the second elastic member 09 and the blocking member 06 to slide upward until the blocking member 06 slides to the uppermost end of the slide groove 31. In addition, as the gear condition 05 is unlocked, the cam 44 on the starting member 04 rotates to a horizontal state, and the transmission damping structure is in Figure 6 The state shown. Then, as the sliding member slides downward, it drives the trigger member 01 to slide downward until the starting member 04 is triggered again. The starting member 04 drives the cam 44 to actuate until the cam pushes the spring piece 332, thereby unlocking the hook member 72. The elastic pull rope 71 releases energy and shortens. At this time, the second elastic member 09 is released to push the gear condition 05 to slide downward. The gear condition 05 drives the transmission gear set 02 to slide in the opposite direction. The gear condition 05 compresses the first elastic member 08 during the sliding process. The first elastic member 08 limits the sliding speed of the gear condition 05. In addition, during the downward sliding process of the gear condition 05, the limiting sleeve 53 drives the cam 44 to rotate so that the cam 44 rotates back to the initial state. At this time, the transmission damping structure is in Figure 7Afterwards, the sliding member continues to drive the trigger member 01 downward, and at the same time controls the telescopic push rod 010 to extend, so that the telescopic push rod 010 can cooperate with the block 61 to drive the blocking member 06 to slide downward. When the blocking member 06 slides down to abut against the movable sleeve 73, as the sliding member continues to slide down, the blocking member 06 pushes the movable sleeve 73 and the hook member 72 to slide downward, so that the hook member 72 slides back into the mounting seat 32 and is re-locked by the spring piece 332 and the locking hole 331. At this time, the transmission damping structure is in Figure 8 The state shown is shown, and then the telescopic push rod 010 is controlled to retract so that the sliding member can continue to slide down and reset. At this time, the blocking member 06 slides upward for a certain distance until the elastic force of the second elastic member 09 and the elastic pull rope 71 reaches a balance. At this time, the transmission damping structure is restored to Figure 6 The initial state is shown.

The table top assembly 20 includes a sliding plate 201 slidably mounted on the slide rail 101, a table top body 202 rotatably mounted on the sliding plate 201 through a table top rotating shaft, and a driving device 203 for driving the sliding plate 201 to slide.

[0107] The trigger member 01 is installed on the sliding plate 201, and the transmission gear set 02 is installed on the table top shaft 203.

[0108] In the embodiment of the present application, a tabletop assembly 20 is provided on both sides of the armrest 10. The slide rail 101 is installed in the vertical direction. Two slide rails 101 can be provided to improve sliding stability. A sliding block is provided on the sliding plate 201 and can slideably cooperate with the slide rail 101. A driving device 203 is installed on the sliding plate 201. The driving device 203 can be a driving motor. The driving device 203 drives the sliding block to slide on the slide rail 101. For its specific structure, reference can be made to the relevant structures in the prior art. The trigger member 01 of the transmission damping structure is installed on the sliding plate 201, the transmission gear set 02 is installed on the tabletop shaft, and the damping assembly is installed on the armrest 10.

[0109] Specifically, the tabletop body 202 is rotatably mounted above the sliding plate 201. Initially, the tabletop body 202 and the sliding plate 201 are coplanar. The drive device 203 drives the sliding plate 201, causing the tabletop body 202 to slide upward until the transmission gear set 02 engages the damping assembly. The drive device 203 then continues to drive the sliding plate 201 upward. The sliding plate 201, through the damping assembly and transmission gear set 02, drives the tabletop body 202 to rotate and unfold. By setting the transmission ratio of the transmission gear set 02, after the gear member 05 in the damping assembly completes a single sliding stroke, the tabletop shaft rotates 90°, causing the tabletop body 202 to rotate from a vertical position to a horizontal position.

[0110] The armrest table top of the embodiment of the present application has a simple overall structure, and the automatic unfolding of the table top body is achieved through the transmission damping structure, and the unfolding speed of the table top body can be limited, thereby preventing the table top body from falling quickly and affecting the user experience.
