Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of seat noise reduction, in particular to a silent seat back support structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] In daily life and work scenes, as an indispensable furniture, the performance of the back support structure of the seat is crucial. At present, the seat back support structures on the market are various in form, but there are some problems to be solved. When dealing with the action of leaning back by the human body, the traditional seat back support structure adopts a simple mechanical linkage mode. When the chair back is subjected to a backward tilting force, the components are directly rigidly connected or only realize motion transmission through simple friction fit. Although this design can provide certain support, it has obvious defects. On the one hand, due to the lack of effective elastic buffering mechanism, the backrest is difficult to realize natural and comfortable elastic fit with the human back, and cannot flexibly adjust the support force according to the different postures and stress conditions of the human body, which easily leads to fatigue and discomfort of the user's back after long time use. On the other hand, during the tilting process, the frequent relative motion between the components will generate a large friction force, which will further cause obvious noise. This noise not only affects the concentration and comfort of the user, but is particularly prominent in places such as offices and studies that require a quiet environment. At the same time, the continuous friction will also accelerate the wear of the components, shorten the service life of the seat, and increase the use cost.

[0003] Therefore, it is a technical problem to be solved in the seat industry to develop a new type of seat back support structure which can realize elastic fit support of the backrest with the human body while effectively reducing the noise and component wear during the tilting process, and it has important practical significance and market value.
