[0035] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] See also Figure 2 The utility model discloses a backrest structure with a hidden headrest, comprising: a headrest assembly 1 and a backrest assembly 2, the backrest assembly 2 comprising a backrest frame 21 and a cover plate 22, the backrest frame 21 is provided with an open storage cavity 23, the cover plate 22 is hinged to the backrest frame 21 and is used to cover the storage cavity 23. Preferably, the lower end of the cover plate 22 is hinged to the bottom wall of the storage cavity 23 by a hinge to facilitate the opening and closing of the cover plate 22. Of course, the cover plate 22 can also be hinged to the left side wall or the right side wall of the storage cavity 23 laterally. At this time, in order to avoid interference between the cover plate 22 and the armrest 3 of the sofa seat, the lower edge of the cover plate 22 needs to be higher than the upper edge of the armrest 3. Of course, the cover plate 22 can also be relatively hinged to the backrest frame 21 by other means such as a rotating shaft and a connecting rod structure.

[0038] The headrest assembly 1 is hinged to the backrest frame 21, and the headrest assembly 1 can be rotated from the upper part of the backrest frame 21 to the storage cavity 23, so that the headrest assembly 1 can be rotated out for use or hidden for storage.

[0039] For details, see Figures 2 to 5 The headrest assembly 1 includes a rotating support frame 11 and an upper fixing plate 14. The rotating support frame 11 is used to support the upper fixing plate 14. The upper fixing plate 14 is used to install the headrest plate 15. A fixing seat 24 is provided in the storage cavity 23. The rotating support frame 11 and the fixing seat 24 are hinged through the rotating shaft 12. In this way, when the headrest needs to be used, the cover plate 22 can be opened, and the headrest plate 15 can be manually rotated to make the headrest assembly 1 rotate relative to the fixing seat 24 around the rotating shaft 12 until the headrest plate 15 is rotated to the upper part of the backrest frame 21; when the headrest is not needed, the headrest plate 15 is manually rotated into the storage cavity 23, and then the cover plate 22 is closed. At this time, the headrest is hidden in the backrest assembly 2, and the seat maintains an overall beautiful appearance.

[0040] In particular, at least one disc washer 13 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 12, and the disc washer 13 is located between the rotating support frame 11 and the end cap of the rotating shaft 12 and / or between the rotating support frame 11 and the fixed seat 24 and / or between the fixed seat 24 and the end cap of the rotating shaft 12. In this way, the disc washer 13 is used to provide a pre-tightening force to prevent loosening, so as to prevent the headrest assembly 1 from rotating loose and causing abnormal noise, inconvenience in use, etc. during the use of the headrest when it is rotated out of the use state or rotated into the storage state, especially when the backrest inclination angle is adjusted or the user sits up suddenly, and the overall structure is simple and the cost is low. It can also make the rotation force of the headrest assembly 1 stable and the rotation is smooth without jamming. On the other hand, the wear-resistant characteristics of the disc washer 13 can also be used to extend the overall service life.

[0041] Preferably, the disc-shaped washers 13 are provided with at least three and include a first disc-shaped washer 131, a second disc-shaped washer 132, and a third disc-shaped washer 133.

The specific number of the first disc-shaped washer 131, the second disc-shaped washer 132, and the third disc-shaped washer 133 is determined according to needs. In this way, the three-layer pre-tightening method can balance the smoothness and wear of each component during rotation, and further improve the stability of the rotation force of the headrest assembly 1.

[0042] See also Figure 3In this embodiment, preferably, two rotating support frames 11 are provided, and one rotating support frame 11 is connected to each side of the upper fixing plate 14 to enhance the stability of the upper fixing plate 14 and avoid or reduce the torsion caused by the force on the upper fixing plate 14. More preferably, two upper fixing plates 14 are provided, and the two upper fixing plates 14 are arranged at intervals in the height direction to better support the headrest plate 15.

[0043] It is understandable that in other preferred embodiments, the headrest assembly 1 may not include the upper fixing plate 14 , but the finished headrest package is directly connected to the rotating support frame 11 .

[0044] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the rotating support frame 11 includes a bending member 111 and a rotating block 112 connected to one end of the bending member 111. The rotating block 112 is provided with a first hinge hole 113 for the rotating shaft 12 to pass through. The rotating block 112 can cooperate with the fixing seat 24 to limit the rotation angle of the headrest assembly 1. In particular, when the headrest is needed and the headrest plate 15 is rotated to the upper part of the backrest frame 21, so that the headrest assembly 1 is in a rotated out state, the rotating block 112 can abut against the fixing seat 24 to limit the headrest plate 15 from continuing to rotate backwards. At this time, the force arm of the user's head acting on the headrest plate 15 will be transmitted to the fixing seat 24, and the fixing seat 24 is used to bear the load, thereby reducing the strength requirements for the backrest frame 21 and reducing the production cost.

[0045] See also Figure 5 Preferably, an avoidance groove 25 for avoiding the bending member 111 is provided on the top wall of the storage cavity 23. When the headrest assembly 1 is in the unscrewed use state, the bending member 111 can be rotated to be embedded in the avoidance groove 25, and then the cover plate 22 is rotated to cover it. There is no need to open the avoidance groove on the cover plate 22. In this way, the flatness of the surface of the cover plate 22 is maintained, and the overall beauty of the seat is further maintained.

[0046] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the fixing seat 24 is generally in an inverted U shape, including a lower fixing plate 241 and two hinge ears 242 formed by bending the two ends of the lower fixing plate 241 in one piece, the lower fixing plate 241 can be used to abut against the rotating block 112 for limiting position, and the hinge ears 242 are provided with a second hinge hole 243 for the rotating shaft 12 to pass through. Specifically, the lower fixing plate 241 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the storage cavity 23, and the hinge ears 242 are bent and extended downward.

[0047] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 12 includes a rivet 121 and a flat washer 122 for riveting with the rivet 121, wherein the rivet 121 passes through the first disc washer 131, the rotating block 112, the second disc washer 132, the hinge ear 242 and the third disc washer 133 in sequence and then is riveted and fixed with the flat washer 122. In this way, the structure and production cost of the rotating shaft 12 are simplified, the overall assembly process is simple, and the use is universal.

[0048] See also Figure 1 Based on the same concept, the utility model also discloses a sofa seat, which is applied with the backrest structure with hidden headrest as described above. Specifically, the sofa seat also includes two armrests 3, a seat 4 and a support 5, the support 5 is used to support on the ground, the seat 4 is installed above the support 5, the two armrests 3 are installed on the left and right sides of the seat 4, and the backrest frame 21 in the backrest assembly 2 is installed on the rear side of the seat 4. Preferably, the backrest assembly 2 can drive the headrest assembly to rotate relative to the seat 4 to adjust the inclination angle.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] See also Figures 6 to 8 This embodiment also discloses a backrest structure with a hidden headrest.

[0051] The backrest structure of this embodiment is different from that of the first embodiment in that the fixing seat 24 is a split structure and the upper fixing plate 14 is eliminated. Figure 1 In the sofa seat shown.

[0052] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the fixed seat 24 includes two seat bodies 244, which are arranged at intervals and have an adjustable gap. The rotating support frame 11 is also provided with two, each seat body 244 is pivotally connected to a rotating support frame 11, and each rotating support frame 11 is provided with a connecting hole 114 for installing the headrest plate 15. In this way, the rotating support frame 11 can be directly used to install the headrest plate 15, thereby eliminating the upper fixed plate 14.

[0053] Thus, in the above scheme, since the fixed seat 24 adopts a split structure and directly uses the rotating support frame 11 to install the headrest board 15, the connection distance between the two rotating support frames 11 and the headrest board 15 is adjustable, the assembly is simple, and it is convenient to flexibly adopt headrests of different widths and specifications according to the size of the sofa seat, and ensure the good supporting effect of the two rotating support frames 11 on the headrest.

[0054] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8Preferably, the seat body 244 is L-shaped, and the rotating support frame 11 is hinged to the relatively outer side of the seat body 244, wherein the relatively outer side of the seat body 244 refers to: the outer side of the two seat bodies 244 that is relatively far away, and the rotating support frame 11 is used to abut against the front side of the top wall of the storage cavity 23 to limit the position, so as to control the position of the rotating support frame 11 when it rotates upward and unfolds. The seat body 244 specifically includes a horizontal section and a vertical section connected to one end of the horizontal section, wherein the horizontal section is fixedly connected to the top wall of the storage cavity 23, and the vertical section extends downward and is provided with a second hinge hole 243 for the rotation shaft 12 to pass through, and the rotating support frame 11 is hinged to the outer side of the vertical section of the seat body 244.
