[0026] In the related technology, VR (Virtual Reality) technology is a computer simulation system that can create and experience a virtual world. It uses a computer to generate a simulated environment. It is a multi-source information fusion, interactive three-dimensional dynamic vision and entity behavior system simulation, which allows users to immerse themselves in the environment. In the existing technology, more and more VR technology applications have been developed, especially VR glasses have been more widely used, which can enable users to perceive the virtual state in an immersive way. However, in power plant safety training, trainers usually conduct corresponding safety training by using VR glasses or directly watching the display screen, which has a poor experience and poor immersion effect on trainers, making it difficult to achieve better training results.

[0027] Based on the above technical problem, the first aspect of the present disclosure provides a seat, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the chair includes a base 1, a seat body 2 and a driving device 3, the driving device 3 includes a first driving mechanism 310 connected to the base 1 and the seat body 2 and a second driving mechanism 320 connected to the seat body 2, the first driving mechanism 310 is used to drive the seat body 2 to move relative to the base 1 along a first direction; the second driving mechanism 320 includes a second gear 321 fixedly connected to the seat body 2 and capable of rotating about a rotation axis; and a second driving member 322 for driving the second gear to rotate; the second driving member 322 is engaged with the second gear 321, and the output end of the second driving member 322 can drive the second gear 321 to rotate around the rotation axis to drive the seat body 2 to rotate.

[0028] Through the above-mentioned method, that is, the seat provided by the present invention, when the power plant personnel are undergoing safety training, they can sit on the seat body 2 and wear equipment such as VR glasses. The driving device 3 can be combined with the scene displayed in the VR glasses to drive the seat body 2 to move forward and backward relative to the base 1 along the first direction through the first driving mechanism 310, and can also engage with the second gear 321 through the second driving member 322 on the second driving mechanism 320, and drive the second gear 321 to rotate around the rotation axis, thereby driving the seat body 2 to rotate and tilt. In this way, the staff sitting on the seat body 2 can also have a better experience and a deeper immersion effect in the process of safety training through VR virtual scenes, thereby achieving better training results.

[0029] It should be noted that the safety training of the power plant may include training contents such as safe operation, emergency rescue, and safety skills. The seat can simulate the workstation of the power plant personnel or the seat of the vehicle inside the plant. The scene displayed in the VR glasses can be the scene shown in front of the workstation or the scene on the vehicle inside the plant. It can be adaptively adjusted according to the training content. At the same time, the seat can also swing in different directions through the first drive mechanism 310 and the second drive mechanism 320 according to different scenes, thereby achieving better training effect for the power plant personnel.

[0030] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the second driving member 322 includes: a second driver, a second driving rod 322A and a second rack 322B, the second driver is connected to the base body 2; the second driving rod 322A is connected to the output end of the second driver; the second rack 322B is connected to the second driving rod 322A and extends along the first direction, the second rack 322B is engaged with the second gear 321, so as to drive the second driving rod 322A and the second rack 322B to move along the first direction under the drive of the second driver, so as to drive the second gear 321 to rotate. In this way, the second driver can drive the second driving rod 322A to move, and then drive the second rack 322B to reciprocate along the first direction. During the movement of the second rack 322B, since the second rack 322B is always engaged with the second gear 321, the second gear 321 can be driven to rotate, and finally the seat body 2 can be driven to rotate around the rotation axis of the second gear 321, and the seat body 2 can also be tilted forward and backward. The second driving rod 322A can also be constructed as any suitable structure, for example, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the second driving rod 322A may include two parts, one part is a telescopic rod extending along the first direction, and the other part is another cross bar extending along the second direction and connected to the telescopic rod. Under this construction, the second driver may be a cylinder, and the output end of the cylinder may control the telescopic rod to extend and retract relative to the output end of the cylinder, thereby driving the cross bar to move along the first direction. The cross bar may be connected to one end of the second rack 322B, thereby driving the second rack 322B to reciprocate along the first direction to drive the second gear 321 to rotate.

[0031] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the second driving rod 322A extends along the second direction, the number of the second racks 322B is two and they are respectively connected to the two ends of the second driving rod 322A, the number of the second gears 321 is two and they are arranged on the two opposite sides of the second direction of the seat body 2, and the second racks 322B are meshed with the second gears 321 one by one. In this way, the two second racks 322B can be meshed with the two second gears 321 one by one, and when the second driving rod 322A drives the second racks 322B to reciprocate along the first direction, the two second racks 322B and the two second gears 321 can make the seat rotate and tilt more stably, thereby also improving the safety of the staff sitting on the seat body 2 during the training process.

[0032] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the chair also includes a support assembly 4 connected to the base 1 and the seat body 2. The number of the support assemblies 4 is two and they are arranged at intervals along the second direction. The two support assemblies 4 are slidably connected to the base 1. In this way, the two support assemblies 4 can always provide support to the seat body 2 during the process of being slidably connected to the base 1 along the first direction, thereby improving the stability of the support for the seat body 2, and allowing the staff to sit more stably on the seat body 2 for safety training. In the present disclosure, the support assembly 4 can be any support structure that can support the seat body 2. For example, the support assembly 4 can include a plurality of support frames that can support the seat body 2. One end of the plurality of support frames can be connected to the lower surface of the seat body 2, and the other end can be slidably connected to the base 1. In this way, it can satisfy that the seat body 2 can slide relative to the base 1, and can also provide a supporting effect on the seat body 2. The present disclosure does not make specific limitations on this.

[0033] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3As shown, the support assembly 4 includes a first slide groove 410 and a sliding bracket 420. The first slide groove 410 is provided on the base 1 and extends along the first direction. One end of the sliding bracket 420 is connected to the first slide groove 410, and the other end is rotatably connected to the base 2. In this way, the sliding bracket 420 can slide along the extension direction of the first slide groove 410, thereby driving the base 2 to reciprocate relative to the base 1 along the first direction. At the same time, during the movement of the base 2, the sliding movement method can also improve the smoothness of the movement of the base 2, thereby providing a more immersive training experience to the staff sitting on the base 2, thereby improving the training effect.

[0034] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first driving mechanism 310 includes a first driving member 311 and a first rotating member 312. The first driving member 311 is connected to the sliding bracket 420. The first rotating member 312 is connected to the driving end of the first driving member 311 and is rotatably abutted against the surface of the base 1, so as to drive the sliding bracket 420 to move along the extension direction of the first slide groove 410. In this way, when the sliding bracket 420 needs to move along the extension direction of the first slide groove 410, the first driving member 311 can be used as an active member to drive the first rotating member 312 to rotate. During the rotation of the first rotating member 312, since the peripheral wall of the first rotating member 312 is rotatably abutted against the surface of the base 1, it will roll on the surface of the base 1 due to friction. When the first rotating member 312 rolls, it will drive the sliding bracket 420 to slide along the extension direction of the first slide groove 410, and then drive the seat body 2 to move along the first direction.

[0035] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the sliding bracket 420 includes a first mounting bracket 421 and a second mounting bracket 422, the first mounting bracket includes a first part 421A slidably connected to the first slide groove 410 and a second part 421B connected to the first part 421A, the second part 421B is constructed as an arc-shaped bracket, and a second slide groove is provided in the extension direction of the arc-shaped bracket; the second mounting bracket 422 includes a connecting rod 422A fixedly connected to the seat body 2 and a sliding member 422B connected to the end of the connecting rod 422A away from the seat body 2, and the sliding member 422B can slide along the extension direction of the second slide groove. In this way, when the seat body 2 needs to tilt forward and backward, as the second gear 321 rotates, the seat body 2 will also tilt and swing forward and backward. When the seat body 2 swings, the connecting rod 422A will also swing with the swing of the seat body 2, thereby driving the sliding member 422B connected to the connecting rod 422A to move along the second slide groove inside the second part 421B constructed as an arc-shaped bracket, and the second slide groove can also effectively limit the sliding member 422B, thereby preventing the seat body 2 from swinging too much and causing the staff sitting on the seat body 2 to fall off the seat body 2, that is, you can refer to Figure 2 As shown, the sliding range of the sliding member 422B is limited to the inside of the arc-shaped second sliding groove, which can effectively limit the front and rear tilt angles of the seat body 2.

[0036] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the base 1 is provided with a first rack 110 extending in a first direction, and the first rotating member 312 is configured as a first gear meshed with the first rack 110. In this way, when the base 2 needs to move relative to the base 1 along the first direction, the base 2 can be driven to move more stably by the rotation of the first gear through the meshing of the first gear and the first rack 110.

[0037] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the chair also includes an armrest assembly 5 connected to the seat body 2, and the armrest assembly 5 includes a guardrail 510 and a locking member 520. There are two guardrails and they are located on opposite sides of the seat body 2; the locking member 520 includes a locking portion 521 connected to the guardrail 510 and a locking rod 522 unlockably connected to the locking portion 521. In this way, when the power plant personnel are conducting safety training, the guardrails 510 on both sides of the seat body 2 can further improve the safety of the power plant personnel when they are sitting on the seat body 2 for training, thereby reducing the situation where the staff falls from the seat body 2 during the simulated movement of the seat body 2 in conjunction with the VR glasses. When the staff sits on the seat body 2, the locking rod 522 can be locked to the locking portion 521, and the locking rod 522 here can play a role similar to a seat belt, thereby allowing the staff to sit on the seat body 2 more stably for safety training.

[0038] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, a VR device is provided, which includes VR glasses and a seat. The seat can be the seat mentioned in the above-mentioned specific embodiment and has all the beneficial effects in the above-mentioned specific embodiment. The VR device can be applied to safety training in power plants. For example, power plant staff can sit on the seat and wear VR glasses. The images displayed in the VR glasses are combined with the forward and backward movement and swinging process of the seat to achieve a simulation effect. The VR device can provide power plant staff with a more immersive training experience during training, thereby achieving better training results.

[0039] The present disclosure exemplarily describes a method for using the seat in a power plant safety training process, which may include the following steps:

[0040] Before the staff conducts the power plant safety training, the staff can first unlock the locking rod 522 to the locking part 521. After the staff sits on the seat 2, the locking rod 522 is locked to the locking part 521. At this time, the locking rod 522 and the guardrails 510 on both sides can protect the staff. At this time, the staff can wear VR glasses to start safety training. During the training process, the seat 2 can move forward and backward relative to the base 1, and tilt forward and backward. During the forward and backward movement of the seat 2, the first gear can be driven to rotate through the meshing relationship between the first gear and the first rack 110 through the first driving member 311. After the first gear rotates, it will move relative to the first rack 110, and then it can drive the sliding bracket 420 to reciprocate in the first direction along the extension direction of the first slide groove 410, and then it can drive the seat 2 to move forward and backward in the first direction; on the seat When it is necessary to tilt forward or backward at an angle, the second driver can be used to drive the second driving member 322 to move back and forth along the first direction. During this process, the second driving rod 322A will drive the second rack 322B to move back and forth along the first direction. During the movement of the second rack 322B, since the second rack 322B is always meshed with the second gear 321, the second gear will also rotate with the movement of the second rack 322B. Since the second gear 321 is fixedly connected to the seat body 2, the seat body 2 can be driven to tilt forward and backward. During the tilting of the seat body 2, the connecting rod 422A fixedly connected to the second gear 321 will also swing. During the swinging of the connecting rod 422A, the sliding member 422B will slide in the extension direction of the second slide groove, thereby better limiting the swinging amplitude of the seat body 2, so that the staff can sit on the seat body 2 more safely for training.

[0041] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings; however, the present disclosure is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present disclosure, a variety of simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0042] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the present disclosure will not further describe various possible combinations.

[0043] In addition, various embodiments of the present disclosure may be arbitrarily combined, and as long as they do not violate the concept of the present disclosure, they should also be regarded as the contents disclosed by the present disclosure.
