[0023] The utility model provides a backrest rocking mechanism and a cinema chair. In order to make the purpose, technical solution and effect of the utility model clearer and more specific, the utility model is further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.

[0024] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 The utility model provides a backrest rocking mechanism, including a first mounting plate 1 for fixing to a backrest 50, a second mounting plate 2 for fixing to a leg 10, a resilient member 3 whose two ends are respectively fixed to the first mounting plate 1 and the second mounting plate 2, a limit frame 4 for fixing to the inner wall of an armrest 20, a limit pin 6 for fixing to the backrest 50, and an elastic body 61 arranged on the limit pin 6; a limit groove 41 extending along the length direction of the limit frame 4 is arranged in the limit frame 4, the elastic body 61 is located in the limit groove 41, and is used to contact with the front groove wall or the rear groove wall in the limit groove 41.

[0025] In actual application, a person sits on the seat bag 40, with the back against the backrest 50. When leaning back against the backrest 50, the backrest 50 drives the resilient member 3 to be squeezed through the first mounting plate 1, and at the same time, the backrest 50 drives the limit pin 6 and the resilient member 3 to move forward in the limit slot 41. When the resilient member 3 contacts the front slot wall of the limit slot 41, it means that the backrest 50 moves to the end. Since an elastic body 61 is added to the limit pin 6, and the elastic body 61 is made of soft rubber or silicone, it can prevent the limit pin 6 made of metal from having a hard collision with the limit frame 4 also made of metal, thereby avoiding abnormal noise. At the same time, since the squeezed resilient member 3 has a tendency to restore its deformation, it can reversely drive the first mounting plate 1 and the backrest 50 fixed to the first mounting plate 1 to move forward, so that the limit pin 6 and the elastic body 61 move backward in the limit slot 41, thereby realizing the swing function of the backrest 50 at a certain angle.

[0026] In some embodiments, the elastic body 61 is cylindrical, and the elastic body 61 is wrapped around the outer end of the limit pin 6. Specifically, a plug hole can be opened in the center of the elastic body 61, and the limit pin 6 can be inserted into the plug hole in the form of interference fit, so that the elastic body 61 is wrapped around the outer end of the limit pin 6. The above assembly method is more convenient and firm.

[0027] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, the limit pin 6 is fixedly connected to the backrest 50 through the third mounting plate 5; a nut 51 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the third mounting plate 5, and an external thread is provided on the limit pin 6, and the external thread is threadedly connected to the nut 51. The first mounting plate 1 and the third mounting plate 5 are both fixedly connected to the skeleton structure of the backrest 50 to provide a rigid structure for the theater chair. The nut 51 has been welded to the third mounting plate 5 before leaving the factory, and the outside of the skeleton structure of the backrest 50 needs to be filled with sponge and leather, so that the nut 51 can be hidden inside the backrest 50. During assembly, the limit pin 6 can be fixed to the third mounting plate 5 by inserting the limit pin 6 into the center of the nut 51 and rotating the limit pin 6, and the assembly is quick.

[0028] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the first mounting plate 1 includes a first vertical plate 11, a first horizontal plate 12 fixedly connected to the end of the first vertical plate 11, and a second vertical plate 13 fixedly connected to the end of the first horizontal plate 12; the rear side surface of the second vertical plate 13 is used to be fixedly connected to the upper end of the resilient member 3. In practical applications, the first vertical plate 11 is used to be fixedly connected to the skeleton structure of the backrest 50 and is hidden inside the backrest 50 after the leather is covered, and the first horizontal plate 12 and the second vertical plate 13 are located outside the backrest 50 to facilitate the installation of the resilient member 3. Specifically, a plurality of openings are provided on the second vertical plate 13 and the resilient member 3, and quick fixation can be achieved by inserting bolts into the corresponding openings and tightening them with nuts.

[0029] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, a reinforcing block 14 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the first horizontal plate 12, and the front side of the reinforcing block 14 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the second vertical plate 13. The reinforcing block 14 is provided to improve the connection rigidity between the second vertical plate 13 and the first horizontal plate 12, so as to prevent the moviegoer from leaning too hard against the backrest 50, causing an irreversible change in the angle between the second vertical plate 13 and the first horizontal plate 12.

[0030] See also Figure 2In some embodiments, the first vertical plate 11, the first horizontal plate 12, and the second vertical plate 13 are an integrally formed structure. In the actual preparation process, after the first mounting plate 1 is cut according to the size, the first vertical plate 11, the first horizontal plate 12, and the second vertical plate 13 are formed by a bending machine to prepare an integrally bent first mounting plate 1, so as to achieve seamless connection, improve the structural rigidity of the first mounting plate 1, and thus extend the swing life of the swing mechanism.

[0031] In some embodiments, the resilient member 3 is spring steel. The comprehensive mechanical properties of spring steel are better than those of carbon steel, and its mechanical properties such as tensile strength, elongation, hardness, etc. are relatively excellent, and the cost is lower than that of leaf springs, which is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the theater chair.

[0032] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the second mounting plate 2 is provided in two pieces, and the lower end of the spring steel is clamped between the two second mounting plates 2, and the spring steel is fixedly connected to the two second mounting plates 2. The upper part of the spring steel is fixedly connected to the second vertical plate 13, and the lower part of the spring steel is clamped between the two second mounting plates 2. The upper and lower parts of the spring steel can be fixed, so that only the middle part of the spring steel is retained as the part with deformation ability, and the deformation range of the spring steel can be controlled, that is, the swing range of the backrest 50 can be controlled.

[0033] See also Figure 1 The utility model also provides a cinema chair, including legs 10 symmetrically arranged on the left and right, armrests 20 arranged on the corresponding legs 10, a seat bag 40 rotatably connected to the two legs 10 on both sides, the backrest swing mechanism, and a backrest 50 fixedly connected to the backrest swing mechanism. Two backrest swing mechanisms are provided, and the two backrest swing mechanisms are respectively fixedly connected to the inner side walls of the corresponding legs 10. The legs 10 are large in size and can block the audience between the cinema chairs to provide a relatively independent viewing space. The armrests 20 can be used for audiences to rest on, and the armrests 20 can be flipped up and down at a certain angle around the rear end of the legs 10. The seat bag 40 is connected to the legs 10 through a return mechanism to achieve automatic return of the seat bag 40.

[0034] See also Figure 1 In some embodiments, a beverage placement slot 30 is provided at the front end of the armrest 20. As a seat for a theater or cinema, the beverage placement slot 30 is provided for users to place sundries such as beverages, paper towels, small garbage, and items such as mobile phones.

[0035] In summary, the utility model provides a first mounting plate 1, a second mounting plate 2, and a resilient member 3 with elastic deformation capability, so that the backrest 50 has the function of swinging back and forth; by providing a limit frame 4, a limit groove 41, and providing an elastomer 61 on the limit pin 6, when the limit pin 6 and the elastomer 61 move in the limit groove 41, the elastomer 61 can play a role of silencing, thereby avoiding abnormal noise, which is beneficial to improving the viewing experience.
