[0036] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.
[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 3 , a conveniently adjustable headrest, comprising:
[0038] Base frame 1;
[0039] A first adjustment arm 20, wherein the first adjustment arm 20 is pivotally connected to the top of the base frame 1;
[0040] a second adjusting arm 30 , the second adjusting arm 30 being pivotally connected to the top of the first adjusting arm 20 ;
[0041] The headrest 40 has a back side pivotally connected to the front end of the second adjustment arm 30 .
[0042] The present invention also discloses a chair, comprising a seat 10 and a backrest 11, which uses the above-mentioned easily adjustable headrest, wherein the base frame 1 is fixed to the rear side of the backrest 11, and the lower end of the first adjustment arm 20 is located in the middle of the rear side of the backrest 11.
[0043] In this solution, the top of the first adjustment arm 20 is preferably higher than the top of the seat back 11, so that the headrest 40 and the second adjustment arm 30 can be easily adjusted, thereby ensuring that when the headrest 40 is located at the front end of the seat back 11, the lowest position of the headrest 40 can be lower than the top of the seat back 11.
[0044] The first adjusting arm 20 is pivoted to the base frame 1, and the base frame 1 is fixed to the rear side of the seat back 11, and the lower end of the first adjusting arm 20 is located in the middle of the rear side of the seat back 11, so that the front and rear position of the headrest 40 can be adjusted in a large range, and then the second adjusting arm 30 is pivoted to the first adjusting arm 20 so that the second adjusting arm 30 can further adjust the height of the headrest 40. Finally, by pivoting the headrest 40 to the second adjusting arm 30, the direction of the headrest 40 can be conveniently adjusted. Through the three-stage adjustment structure, the adjustment range of the headrest 40 can be maximized, with greater flexibility, and can adapt to users in the greatest range. At the same time, the first adjusting arm 20 is pivotally connected to the middle part of the back of the seat back 11, so as to avoid fixing the headrest 40 directly to the top of the seat back 11. In this way, the upper part of the seat back 11 can be freed, and the upper part of the seat back 11 can move and deform freely without affecting the position of the headrest 40. However, in traditional chairs, since the headrest 40 is directly fixed to the top of the seat back 11, the upper part of the seat back 11 needs to be very stable. Otherwise, it is impossible to ensure the position of the headrest 40 while allowing the upper part of the seat back 11 to deform freely to provide space for shoulder movement.
[0045] In the present solution, the first adjusting arm 20 is pivoted to the base frame 1, the second adjusting arm 30 is pivoted to the first adjusting arm 20, and the headrest 40 is pivoted to the second adjusting arm 30. The pivoting method can adopt the form of an axis body interference-inserted on the axis hole, so that a larger friction force is formed between them. During adjustment, only the friction force needs to be overcome. This method does not require the setting of an additional positioning structure for assistance, but the disadvantage is that after long-term use, the axis body and the inner wall of the axis hole will wear, resulting in a decrease in the friction force of the axis body rotating in the axis hole.
[0046] For further optimization, it is preferred that a first positioning structure 60 for fixing the first adjusting arm 20 is provided between the base frame 1 and the first adjusting arm 20 .
[0047] In this solution, the first positioning structure 60 preferably includes:
[0048] The base frame 1 is provided with a rotating shaft, and the first adjusting arm 20 is pivotally connected to the base frame 1 through the rotating shaft;
[0049] A first ratchet, a first pawl is arranged on the outer periphery of the first ratchet, the first ratchet is fixed on the first adjusting arm 20, and the axis of the first ratchet is coaxial with the rotation axis of the first adjusting arm 20, a reset torsion spring fixed on the base frame 1 is arranged on the first ratchet, a running groove located on the same plane as the first ratchet and a reset groove misaligned with the first ratchet are arranged on the outer periphery of the first ratchet, the head end of the running groove is connected with the reset groove, the tail end of the running groove is connected with the reset groove, and a receiving surface is arranged at the bottom of the reset groove;
[0050] The first pawl is pivotally connected to the base frame 1, and a first spring is provided on the first pawl to drive the first pawl to swing toward the first ratchet. The front end of the first pawl performs a circular motion along the travel groove and the reset groove. When the first pawl is located in the travel groove, the front end of the first pawl engages with the first ratchet.
[0051] In this way, when the first adjusting arm 20 swings along the back side of the chair back 11 toward the front side of the chair back 11, the first adjusting arm 20 drives the first ratchet to rotate relative to the first pawl. At this time, the first pawl is located in the travel groove, so that the first pawl is engaged with the first ratchet. In the process of swinging toward the front, the first ratchet can push the first pawl to overcome the elastic force of the first spring and bounce up, thereby falling onto the ratchet on the rear side. However, when the first adjusting arm 20 swings toward the rear side, the first pawl will get stuck on the ratchet, thereby preventing the first adjustment arm from swinging backward. Only when the first adjusting arm swings to the frontmost position, the first pawl enters the reset groove along the traveling groove, and the first pawl disengages from the first ratchet. At this time, under the action of the reset torsion spring, the first adjusting arm 20 is driven to reset backward. At the same time, the first pawl moves along the reset groove during the resetting of the first adjusting arm and finally returns to the front end of the traveling groove to re-engage with the first ratchet. The supporting surface plays the role of supporting the end of the first pawl when the first pawl enters the reset groove, thereby maintaining the height of the first pawl, so that the first pawl can be smoothly stuck on the ratchet tooth when returning to the traveling groove.
[0052] In other embodiments, the first positioning structure 60 may also be configured as other structures, for example:
[0053] A second ratchet, the second ratchet is disposed on the base frame 1 and is coaxial with the rotation axis of the first adjusting arm 20;
[0054] A second pawl, the end of which is movably engaged with the second ratchet, and the second pawl is provided with a second spring which drives the end of the second pawl to engage with the second ratchet;
[0055] A handle is provided on the first adjusting arm 20 , and the handle is connected to the second pawl and is used to drive the second pawl to swing in a direction of disengaging from the second ratchet wheel.
[0056] Through this structure, the second ratchet and the second pawl are also used to restrict the first adjustment arm 20 from swinging from back to front, thereby preventing the first adjustment arm 20 from moving backward. The difference is that when the first adjustment arm 20 is adjusted to reset backward, the second pawl needs to be driven by the handle to swing and disengage from the second ratchet. Only then can the first adjustment arm be driven to swing backward and reset.
[0057] Similarly, preferably, a second positioning structure for fixing the second adjusting arm 30 is provided between the first adjusting arm 20 and the second adjusting arm 30 .
[0058] In this solution, preferably, the first adjusting arm 20 is provided with a first end surface 22 at the top, and the second adjusting arm 30 is provided with a second end surface 311 abutting against the first end surface 22 at the bottom;
[0059] The second positioning structure comprises:
[0060] Two pairs of opposite locking plates 50 are provided with mutually meshing and annular wave teeth, and the two pairs of locking plates 50 are respectively arranged on the first end face 22 and the second end face 311. The pivot axis of the first adjusting arm 20 and the second adjusting arm 30 is located at the center of the locking plate 50, and the first end face 22 and / or the second end face 311 have elastic deformation.
[0061] Under this structure, when driving the second adjustment arm 30 to rotate relative to the first adjustment arm 20, sufficient external force needs to be applied to cause the first end face 22 and / or the second end face 311 to undergo elastic deformation, thereby causing the wave teeth on the two pairs of locking plates 50 to rotate out of position and achieve the purpose of adjustment.
[0062] The second positioning structure may also be set to other structures, for example:
[0063] A bolt hole is provided on the first adjusting arm 20 , and the end of the bolt hole faces the surface of the second adjusting arm 30 . The positioning bolt threaded in the bolt hole can be fixed when the positioning bolt is rotated inward so that the end face of the positioning bolt abuts against the surface of the second adjusting arm 30 .
[0064] Similarly, it is preferred that a third positioning structure for fixing the headrest 40 is disposed on the back of the second adjustment arm 30 and the headrest 40 .
[0065] In this structure, preferably, a second shaft body 321 is disposed on the top of the second adjustment arm 30, and a second shaft hole 411 for inserting the second shaft body 321 is disposed on the back of the headrest 40;
[0066] The third positioning structure comprises:
[0067] A positioning ridge 3211 disposed on the surface of the second shaft 321;
[0068] A wave tooth group 412 is disposed in the second shaft hole 411 and cooperates with the positioning convex ridge 3211 , and a deformation cavity 413 is disposed on the back of the headrest 40 and located at the rear side of the wave tooth group 412 .
[0069] During adjustment, it is necessary to apply sufficient external force to the headrest 40 so that the positioning ridge 3211 squeezes the surface of the wavy tooth group 412, causing the wavy tooth group 412 to elastically deform toward the deformation cavity 413, thereby causing the positioning ridge 3211 to be offside on the wavy tooth group 412. When the external force stops being applied, the tooth pattern of the wavy tooth group 412 itself can clamp the positioning ridge 3211, thereby preventing the headrest 40 from moving.
[0070] In other embodiments, the third positioning structure may also be selected as:
[0071] An external gear is provided on the second adjusting arm 30, and a forward and backward moving track is provided on the rear side of the headrest 40. An arc-shaped inner rack is movably installed on the forward and backward moving track, and the inner rack is fully meshed with the surface of the external gear. When the inner rack is moved outward until it is fully engaged with the external gear, the headrest 40 is fixed. When the inner rack moves inward along the forward and backward moving track and disengages from the external gear, the headrest 40 is released and can move freely.
[0072] Meanwhile, in the present solution, the specific implementations of the first positioning structure 60 , the second positioning structure, and the third positioning structure can also be used interchangeably.
[0073] Further optimization, in order to ensure the stability of the structure, preferably the middle part of the rear side of the chair back 11 is provided with a mounting arm 12, and the base frame 1 is fixed to the top of the mounting arm 12. In the actual production process of parts, the base frame 1 and the mounting arm 12 are preferably integrally formed.
[0074] On the basis of the above, preferably, the first adjustment arm 20 includes two first support arms 21 respectively pivotally connected to the two sides of the mounting arm 12, and the base frame 1 is two and pivotally connected to the two first support arms 21 respectively;
[0075] The second adjustment arm 30 includes a second arm body 31 at the rear side and two second support arms 32 located at both sides of the front end of the second arm body 31, and the tops of the two first support arms 21 are respectively pivotally connected to both sides of the second arm body 31;
[0076] Two mounting blocks 41 are disposed at the rear side of the headrest 40 , and the two second arms 32 are pivotally connected to the two mounting blocks 41 from the outer sides of the two mounting blocks 41 .
[0077] In this solution, the two second arms 32 are preferably arranged in a trumpet shape at the front end of the second arm body 31, and the inner side surfaces of the two second arms 32 are in an arc-shaped transition.
[0078] In other embodiments, the first adjustment arm 20 and the second adjustment arm 30 may also be provided as a straight rod structure, and the base frame 1 may also be directly fixed to the middle of the rear side of the chair back 11 without providing a mounting arm.
[0079] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the utility model concept, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
