[0029] The seat shell 8 serves as the overall support structure, with a telescopic drive module installed at its bottom. The seat cushion 6, lumbar support 1, leg rest 5, and headrest 9 are all fixedly connected to the drive end of the telescopic drive module. The angle adjustment and extension / retraction of each component are achieved through the drive of the telescopic drive module. Armrests 2 are symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the seat shell 8. A cup holder 3 is installed at the front end of the left armrest (or right armrest), and a controller 7 is installed at the front end of the right armrest (or left armrest). A three-in-one charger 4 is fixedly installed at the top of the armrest 2 on the side where the cup holder 3 is located, allowing users to charge electronic devices while placing drinks. The three-in-one charger 4 supports multiple interfaces such as USB-A, USB-C, and Type-C, and is compatible with different electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets.
[0030] In this embodiment, the heating module uses heating wires, which are sewn into the inside of the armrest 2 and the lumbar support 1. The heating wires are electrically connected to the controller 7 through wires, and the controller 7 has a built-in temperature control unit to strictly control the heating temperature of the heating wires below 35°C to ensure safe use and avoid high-temperature burns.
[0031] The controller 7 includes a controller panel 71, a seat heating button 72, a seat extension button 73, a seat folding button 74, a power off button 75, and a display screen 76. All function buttons and the display screen 76 are embedded in the front of the controller panel 71.

Simultaneously, the display screen 76 can also display information such as the current payment status, remaining usage time, and heating temperature for user convenience. The controller 7 has a built-in 4G communication module, which establishes a stable connection with the cloud server via a 4G network to transmit QR code payment information, issue function commands, and provide real-time feedback on device status. Operators can centrally manage multiple seats through the cloud server, viewing usage frequency, revenue data, fault information, etc. The controller 7 uses a 4G Cat1 module and adopts an OpenCPU development mode to connect to the payment module and function modules. Logical flow: 1) User scans QR code → Payment module verifies order → Controller activates seat; 2) When the user presses a function button, the controller sends a command to the corresponding function module; 3) Once the function is enabled, the controller monitors the usage time in real time and automatically shuts down when the time expires (this can be extended by scanning the code again).
[0032] 3. Functional Modules Heating module: The armrests and backrest have built-in heating wires, and the temperature does not exceed 35℃ to avoid overheating.
[0033] Extension and retraction module: The electric push rod drives the backrest and seat cushion to slide. The user can press the "extend" button to adjust to a reclining position and press the "retract" button to return to the original position.
[0034] Charging module: The left armrest has a built-in 5V / 2A charging port, which is powered by the controller and only outputs current after the user pays.
[0035] 4. Payment Module QR code scanning unit: The control unit is integrated into the right armrest, with a display screen that generates a dynamic QR code (supporting WeChat and Alipay). After scanning the code, the user is redirected to the payment page and pays according to the time.
[0036] Communication unit: Connects to the cloud server via a 4G module, verifies payment information, and then sends an "activation command" to the controller.
[0037] To enhance the comfort and durability of the seat, the armrests 2, lumbar support 1, headrest 9, seat cushion 6, and leg rest 5 are all filled with high-density sponge. The high-density sponge has good elasticity and support, which can relieve fatigue during long rests. The surfaces of the above components are all covered with waterproof PU material. Waterproof PU material has the characteristics of being waterproof, wear-resistant, and easy to clean, which can adapt to the high-frequency use and complex environment in public places and extend the service life of the seat.
[0038] The specific structure of the telescopic drive module is as follows: it includes a horizontal support 10, which is horizontally positioned, with two parallel longitudinal supports 12 welded to its top. The longitudinal supports 12 are perpendicular to the horizontal support 10, forming a stable bottom support frame. The seat cushion support frame 11 is used to support the seat cushion 6, and an electric telescopic rod 25 is fixedly installed in its middle by bolts. The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 25 is fixedly installed with a slider 13 by bolts. The two sides of the slider 13 are hinged to seat cushion brackets 29. The two ends of the longitudinal support 12 are respectively hinged to the seat cushion support 7 30 and the seat cushion support 18. The top of the seat cushion support 7 30 is hinged to the seat cushion support 5 28. The middle part of the seat cushion support 5 28 is hinged to the seat cushion support frame 11 and the seat cushion support 4 27. The other end of the seat cushion support 5 28 is hinged to the backrest connecting frame 1 32. The end of the backrest connecting frame 1 32 is hinged to the backrest support 19. The backrest support 19 is hinged to the seat cushion support frame 11. The backrest support 19 is used to fix the lumbar support 1. The angle of the lumbar support 1 can be adjusted by the linkage of each support.
[0039] The middle of the seat support frame 11 is hinged to a third seat support 26, and the middle of the first seat support 18 is hinged to a second seat support 24. The other end of the second seat support 24 is hinged to the middle of the seat support frame 11, forming a stable triangular support structure and improving the stability of the seat 6 adjustment process. The top of the first seat support 18 is hinged to a fourth leg support 20, and the top of the fourth leg support 20 is hinged to the seat support frame 11, used to drive the movement of the related leg support brackets.
[0040] To enhance the overall stability of the telescopic drive module, the two seat support frames 11 are welded and fixed together by the seat connecting rod 23, and the top of the seat support frame 6 29 is hinged to the seat connecting rod 23; the two seat support frames 18 are welded and fixed together by the connecting rod 15; the two seat support frames 30 are welded and fixed together by the connecting rod 21. The symmetrically arranged supports are connected into a whole by the connecting rods to avoid structural deformation caused by uneven force on a single support and to ensure a smooth and stable adjustment process.
[0041] The driving structure of the leg support 5 is as follows: the end of the seat support frame 11 away from the backrest support 19 is hinged to the leg support bracket 14 and the leg support bracket 6 22 respectively. The end of the leg support bracket 14 is hinged to the leg support bracket 2 16. The end of the leg support bracket 6 22 is hinged to the leg support bracket 5 21. The ends of the leg support bracket 2 16 and the leg support bracket 5 21 are both hinged to the leg support bracket 3 17. The leg support 5 and the leg support bracket 3 17 are fixedly connected by bolts. The extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod 25 drives the slider 13 to move, thereby realizing the extension and retraction of the leg support 5 through the linkage of each leg support bracket.
[0042] In this embodiment, the seat cushion 6 is fixedly connected to the seat cushion support frame 11 by bolts, the lumbar support 1 is fixedly connected to the backrest bracket 19 by bolts, and the headrest 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the lumbar support 1 by buckles, ensuring a stable connection between each component and the drive module and ensuring the synchronicity of the adjustment action.
[0043] Work process: When using the device, users first scan the dynamic QR code on the display screen 76 of the controller 7 and complete the payment operation via their mobile phones. After successful payment, the cloud server sends an activation command to the controller 7 through the 4G communication module, and the display screen 76 displays "Activated" and the remaining usage time.
[0044] If the seat extension position needs to be adjusted, the user presses the seat extension button 73. The controller 7 sends an extension command to the electric telescopic rod 25. The electric telescopic rod 25 extends, driving the slider 13 to move. The slider 13 pushes the seat cushion support 6 29 to move, thereby driving the seat cushion support frame 11 and other related supports to move together, realizing the angle adjustment of the seat cushion 6, the reclining adjustment of the lumbar support 1, and the extension of the leg rest 5. If the seat needs to be folded up, the user presses the seat folding button 74. The electric telescopic rod 25 retracts, driving the supports to move in the opposite direction, and the seat returns to its initial state.
[0045] To turn on the heating function, press the seat heating button 72. The controller 7 will then power on the heating element, and the temperature control unit will monitor the heating temperature in real time to ensure that the temperature does not exceed 35°C. To turn off the heating function, simply press the seat heating button 72 again.
[0046] After use, the user can press the close button 75 to end the use in advance. The controller 7 will control the power off of each functional module, and the display screen 76 will redisplay the dynamic QR code, waiting for the next user to use it. If the user does not close it actively, the controller 7 will automatically control the power off of each functional module after the remaining use time is over, and the seat will return to its initial state.
[0047] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, integrations, and parameter alterations to these embodiments within the spirit and principles of the present invention, achieved through conventional substitutions or by achieving the same function without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
