Preferably, in this embodiment, both the seat cushion assembly 1 and the backrest assembly 2 can slide back and forth on the vehicle body.

[0060] Specifically, in the embodiment, the first electric slide rail 4 and the second electric slide rail 5 are arranged on the car body respectively, the seat cushion group 1 is arranged on the first electric slide rail 4, and specifically, the seat cushion group 1 is arranged on the upper slide rail of the first electric slide rail 4, the upper slide rail is slidably arranged on the lower slide rail, the first electric slide rail 4 can drive the upper slide rail to slide forward and backward along the lower slide rail, and thus the seat cushion group 1 slides forward and backward along with the upper slide rail.

[0061] The backrest group 2 is arranged on the second electric slide rail 5, and specifically, the backrest group 2 is arranged on the upper slide rail of the second electric slide rail 5, the upper slide rail is slidably arranged on the lower slide rail, the second electric slide rail 5 can drive the upper slide rail to slide forward and backward, and thus the backrest group 2 slides forward and backward along with the upper slide rail. That is, the first electric slide rail 4 and the second electric slide rail 5 respectively drive the seat cushion group 1 and the backrest group 2 to slide forward and backward on the car body. In the embodiment, only the mode that the seat cushion group 1 and the backrest group 2 can slide forward and backward is further described in detail, and the other two modes are not described again. Moreover, the electric slide rail is prior art in the existing car seat, and thus is not described again.

[0062] In the embodiment, the seat cushion group 1 comprises a seat cushion framework 10, a main seat cushion 11 and an extension seat cushion 12, the seat cushion framework 10 is provided with a first driving module 13, the main seat cushion 11 is movably arranged on the seat cushion framework 10 and connected with the first driving module 13, the first driving module 13 can drive the main seat cushion 11 to lift the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 to the same height as the front end of the main seat cushion 11, and in the normal sitting posture, the height of the front end of the main seat cushion 11 is generally higher than that of the rear end to ensure the comfort of the passenger. After the bed is formed, the front and rear ends of the main seat cushion 11 are flat, and the comfort of the passenger is higher. The extension seat cushion 12 is rotatably arranged at the rear end of the main seat cushion 11, the main seat cushion 11 is provided with a second driving module 14, and the second driving module 14 is connected with the extension seat cushion 12, and the second driving module 14 can drive the extension seat cushion 12 to rotate relative to the main seat cushion 11.

[0063] In the normal sitting posture, the user generally does not need to use the extension seat cushion 12, so the extension seat cushion 12 is folded at the rear end of the main seat cushion 11. Of course, the user can choose to use the extension seat cushion 12 in the sitting posture to increase the area of the seat cushion.

[0064] In the embodiment, the backrest group 2 comprises a support 20 and a backrest body 21, the backrest body 21 is rotatably arranged on the support 20, the backrest group 2 is provided with a third driving module 22, the third driving module 22 is connected with the backrest body 21 and can drive the backrest body 21 to rotate to realize the adjustable inclination of the backrest body 21.

[0065] When the car seat is switched into bed: the backrest group 2 is at the rear end of the seat cushion group 1, and there is a gap 150 between the backrest body 21 and the main seat cushion 11. The third drive module 22 drives the backrest body 21 to lie down backward, that is, the backrest body 21 rotates backward to be substantially horizontal. The first drive module 13 drives the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 to be lifted, so that the rear end and the front end of the main seat cushion 11 are consistent in height, and are substantially horizontal. The second drive module 14 drives the extension seat cushion 12 to rotate, and the extension seat cushion 12 fills the gap 150 to connect the main seat cushion 11 and the backrest body 21, and the extension seat cushion 12 is also substantially horizontal at this time.

[0066] That is, after the car seat is switched into bed, the front end and the rear end of the main seat cushion 11, the extension seat cushion 12 and the backrest body 21 are substantially horizontal, the extension seat cushion 12 connects the main seat cushion 11 and the backrest body 21, and there is no need to additionally set a leveling component. Further, when the passenger lies on the car seat, the sitting surface of the main seat cushion 11 faces upward and can contact the passenger, and the leaning surface of the backrest body 21 faces upward and can contact the passenger, and the sitting surface of the main seat cushion 11 and the leaning surface of the backrest body 21 are both comfortable surfaces, and contacting the passenger can improve the comfort of the passenger, instead of the back of the main seat cushion 11 or the back of the backrest body 21 facing upward.

[0067] After the car seat in the embodiment is switched into bed, the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is consistent with the front end of the main seat cushion 11, and both are in a horizontal state, the extension seat cushion 12 is arranged horizontally at the rear end of the main seat cushion 11, and the backrest body 21 is arranged horizontally at the rear end of the extension seat cushion 12, that is, the car seat can be truly flat after being switched into bed.

[0068] In actual use, the seat cushion group 1 of the embodiment includes a seat cushion framework 10, a main seat cushion 11 and an extension seat cushion 12, the extension seat cushion 12 is arranged rotatably at the rear end of the main seat cushion 11, in a normal riding mode of the car seat, the extension seat cushion at the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is retracted below the backrest, and the rear end of the main seat cushion 11. When the car seat is switched into bed, the third drive module 22 drives the backrest body 21 to lie down backward, the first drive module 13 drives the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 to be lifted, so that the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is consistent with the front end, and the second drive module 14 drives the extension seat cushion 12 to rotate upward, the extension seat cushion 12 fills the gap 150 between the main seat cushion 11 and the backrest body 21, connects the main seat cushion 11 and the backrest body 21, and ensures that there is no gap or step after the car seat is switched into bed, thereby improving the comfort of the passenger, and there is no need to additionally set a leveling component, and the problem of the gap or step between the backrest and the seat cushion after the traditional seat is switched into bed is effectively solved.

[0069] The automobile seat of the embodiment forms a continuous and flat sleeping plane after final bed formation, and the comfort is improved. The automobile seat can form a bed by itself without cooperation with other front or rear seats, and the overall structure is simple and the bed formation operation is simple.

[0070] As shown in Figures 1-5 In the embodiment, the first driving module 13 is configured as a first screw motor, and the first screw motor has a first telescopic end 130. Understandably, a screw sleeve is arranged on the output screw of the first screw motor, the output screw rotates to drive the screw sleeve to move along the output screw, and the first telescopic end 130 is arranged on the screw sleeve. The driving is realized through a screw nut mechanism, the transmission precision is high, the self-locking property is good, and the movement is stable.

[0071] The rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is provided with a first connecting support 110 rotatably connected with the first driving module 13, and the first connecting support 110 is hinged with the first telescopic end 130. In actual use, when the first telescopic end 130 is stretched, the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is driven to lift; when the first telescopic end 130 is retracted, the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is driven to descend. That is, when the first screw motor drives the screw sleeve on the output screw to move away from itself, the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is lifted; when the first screw motor drives the screw sleeve on the output screw to move close to itself, the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is lowered.

[0072] The second driving module 14 is configured as a second screw motor, and the second screw motor has a second telescopic end 140. Understandably, a screw sleeve is arranged on the output screw of the second screw motor, the output screw rotates to drive the screw sleeve to move along the output screw, and the second telescopic end 140 is arranged on the screw sleeve. Similarly, the driving is realized through a screw nut mechanism, the transmission precision is high, the self-locking property is good, and the movement is stable.

[0073] The second connecting support 120 is arranged on the extension seat cushion 12 and rotatably connected with the extension seat cushion 12, and the second connecting support 120 is hinged with the second telescopic end 140. In actual use, when the second telescopic end 140 is stretched, the extension seat cushion 12 is driven to rotate upward relative to the main seat cushion 11; when the second telescopic end 140 is retracted, the extension seat cushion 12 is driven to rotate downward relative to the main seat cushion 11. That is, when the second screw motor drives the screw sleeve on the output screw to move away from itself, the extension seat cushion 12 is driven to rotate from bottom to top; when the second screw motor drives the screw sleeve on the output screw to move close to itself, the extension seat cushion 12 is driven to rotate from top to bottom.

[0074] Further, the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is provided with a connecting rod 111, the extended seat cushion 12 comprises a first U-shaped support 121 and a second U-shaped support 122, both ends of the first U-shaped support 121 are rotatably connected with both ends of the connecting rod 111 respectively; the second U-shaped support 122 is arranged on the inner side of the first U-shaped support 121, and both ends of the second U-shaped support 122 are fixedly connected with both ends of the first U-shaped support 121 respectively. The second connecting support 120 is arranged at the middle part of the second U-shaped support 122. In comparison, since the second U-shaped support 122 is close to the second connecting support 120, and the first U-shaped support 121 is far away from the second connecting support 120, the middle part of the second connecting support 120 and the second U-shaped support 122 are rotatably connected, so as to avoid that the span of the second connecting support 120 is too large, and the supporting strength and rigidity of the second connecting support 120 are affected.

[0075] The main seat cushion 11 is provided with multiple sitting areas side by side, and the multiple sitting areas can be used by multiple passengers. Preferably, in the embodiment, the main seat cushion 11 is provided with three sitting areas side by side, and the three sitting areas can generally be used by three passengers. When the automobile seat is in the bed state, the width of the bed can be ensured to be sufficient, so as to ensure that the passengers have sufficient space for rest and activity, and the comfort of the passengers is improved.

[0076] The seat cushion framework 10 is provided with a first driving module 13 close to one end of the connecting rod 111, and is provided with another first driving module 13 close to the other end of the connecting rod 111. The first connecting support 110 is rotatably connected with the connecting rod 111, and is provided with a first connecting support 110 close to each end of the connecting rod 111. The first extension end 130 of the two first driving modules 13 is rotatably connected with the two first connecting supports 110 respectively. That is, in the embodiment, the rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is lifted by synchronous driving of the two first lead screws, and the two second lead screws are arranged close to the left and right sides of the main seat cushion 11 respectively, so as to ensure that sufficient lifting force can be provided, and the supporting strength of the main seat cushion 11 after being lifted can be ensured.

[0077] In actual use, the extended seat cushion 12 in the embodiment comprises the first U-shaped support 121 and the second U-shaped support 122 which are fixedly connected with each other, so as to effectively ensure that the extended seat cushion 12 has sufficient rigidity and strength. The automobile seat can be used without the extended seat cushion 12 in the sitting state, or can be used with the extended seat cushion 12. When the extended seat cushion 12 is used in the sitting state, the extended seat cushion 12 can lengthen the main seat cushion 11, and increase the seatable space of the passengers.

[0078] In the riding posture, the main seat cushion 11 must be used, so the strength requirement of the main seat cushion 11 is higher, and the strength requirement of the extension seat cushion 12 is relatively low. The rear end of the main seat cushion 11 is lifted, and the left and right sides of the main seat cushion 11 are synchronously driven by two first screw rod motors, and the extension seat cushion 12 is driven by a second screw rod motor.

[0079] Preferably, in the embodiment, the front end of the main seat cushion 11 is provided with a leg support group 3, the leg support group 3 includes a leg support 30, a connecting rod 111 mechanism 31 and a third screw rod motor 32; the third screw rod motor 32 is arranged at the front end of the main seat cushion 11 and connected with the connecting rod 111 mechanism 31; the leg support 30 is installed at the front end of the main seat cushion 11 through the connecting rod 111 mechanism 31.

[0080] In use, the third screw rod motor 32 can drive the leg support 30 to unfold forward through the connecting rod 111 mechanism 31, so that the leg support 30 is flush with the front end of the main seat cushion 11. After the car seat is formed into a bed, the leg support 30 unfolded forward is flush with the front end of the main seat cushion 11, which can effectively lengthen the length of the bed and provide more space for passengers to rest and move. The bed is formed by the leg support 30, the main seat cushion 11, the extension seat cushion 12 and the backrest body 21 in sequence from front to back, forming a bed through from front to back, and fully utilizing the space in the car.

[0081] When the car seat is in the normal riding posture, the third screw rod motor 32 can drive the connecting rod 111 mechanism 31 to make the leg support 30 unfold forward to the desired angle, so as to support the passenger's shins and avoid the shins being suspended, which can improve the comfort of the passenger when riding. The leg support 30 can also be driven backward by the connecting rod 111 mechanism 31 to be folded on the main seat cushion 11, so as to ensure that the leg support group 3 does not occupy extra space in the car.

[0082] Need to be explained, the connecting rod mechanism 31 in the leg support group 3 of the embodiment is prior art, the leg support group 3 can be set as a six-way leg support or a four-way leg support, and the connecting rod mechanism 31 can adopt a six-connecting-rod mechanism, etc. Since it belongs to prior art, it will not be described again. For example, it can adopt the six-connecting-rod mechanism in CN221698553U, the leg support transmission mechanism in CN120439907A, and the leg support mechanism connecting rod assembly in CN222629175U, etc.

[0085] Specifically, the first motor 220 drives the first synchronizing rod 221 to rotate, and the first synchronizing rod 221 synchronously drives the first angle adjusters 222 at both ends of the first synchronizing rod 221, so that the backrest body 21 rotates relative to the two supports 20, thereby realizing the tilt angle adjustment of the backrest body 21. The setting of the first synchronizing rod 221 ensures that the first angle adjusters 222 on the left and right sides of the backrest body 21 operate synchronously, preventing the backrest body 21 from tilting or getting stuck during rotation.

[0086] With the car seat in a normal sitting position, the first motor 220 drives the first synchronizer 221, which in turn drives the two first angle adjusters 222 to adjust the tilt angle of the backrest body 21. This allows the passenger to be in various postures, such as a zero-gravity posture, which evenly distributes the pressure on the passenger's body, achieving optimal relaxation and recovery effects and ensuring high passenger comfort. When the car seat is assembled into a bed, the first motor 220 drives the first synchronizer 221, which in turn drives the two first angle adjusters 222 to tilt the backrest body 21 backward, ensuring that the backrest body 21 remains in a horizontal position.
