[0043] On the one hand, refer to Figures 1-5 The chair according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes:

[0044] Support leg 100;

[0045] A crossbeam 200 is provided at the support leg 100;

[0046] Mounting base 300 is provided on the crossbeam 200, and the mounting base 300 is provided with a sliding groove 310 extending in the Y direction;

[0047] The slider 500 is provided with a blocking block 510, and the slider 500 is limited to sliding within the sliding groove 310;

[0048] A driving component 600 is connected to the sliding component 500 and is capable of driving the sliding component 500 to slide and locking the sliding component 500.

[0049] Mounting member 700 is provided with a slot 710 extending in the X direction and a first movable groove 720 extending in the Y direction, and the sliding member 500 is slidable relative to the mounting member 700 in the Y direction;

[0050] During the sliding process of the mounting member 700 toward the sliding member 500, the blocking block 510 can pass through the slot 710 and enter the first movable slot 720. The driving member drives the sliding member 500 to slide, causing the blocking block 510 to be misaligned with the slot 710 in the X direction. The driving member locks the sliding member 500.

[0051] According to the embodiments of this utility model, by such a configuration, at least the following effects can be achieved: after the slider 500 is installed on the mounting base 300, the mounting member 700 is inserted into the slider 500 along the X direction, so that the blocking block 510 can enter the first movable groove 720 along the slot 710. The driving member 600 drives the slider 500 along the Y direction in the first movable groove 720. The blocking block 510 and the slot 710 are misaligned, so that the blocking block 510 can prevent the mounting member 700 from moving along the X direction, so that the mounting member 700 can be installed on the mounting base 300. The entire installation process only requires the initial installation of... The base consists of support legs 100 and a crossbeam 200. Then, according to the spacing, the mounting base 300 and sliding member 500 are placed on the crossbeam 200. The chair component with mounting member 700 is then installed on the sliding member 500 to complete the installation. The entire process can be divided into multiple modules, facilitating modular production and easy installation. The mounting member 700 is used to connect the chair component, which can have an electrical connection component. Before installation, the circuit of the electrical connection component is connected to the line 400 on the mounting base 300. Then, the chair component is installed on the mounting base 300, enabling quick installation and improving installation efficiency.

[0052] Understandably, the power connection component can be installed on the mounting base 300. The power connection component is the component that needs to be powered, such as a chair seat or armrest. The chair seat or armrest is equipped with a circuit system and has circuit connection methods such as USB ports or power sockets.

[0053] It is understandable that the X and Y directions are two directions that are not parallel.

[0054] In some embodiments, it also includes:

[0055] The support leg is 100mm long and has an internal passageway.

[0056] The crossbeam 200 has a first mounting groove 210 located at the bottom and a second mounting groove 220 located at the top. The first mounting groove 210 is connected to the channel, and the first mounting groove 210 is connected to the second mounting groove 220.

[0057] Mounting base 300 is disposed in the second mounting slot 220;

[0058] The line 400 is arranged sequentially along the support 100, the first mounting groove 210, the second mounting groove 220 and the mounting base 300.

[0059] In this configuration, the crossbeam 200 supports the chair and has multiple slots inside. The wiring 400 is arranged along the slots, making full use of the slots and effectively protecting the internal circuitry. The wiring 400 is used to connect to the power source and provide power to the seat. The wiring 400 is arranged along the channel of the support leg 100, the first mounting slot 210 of the crossbeam 200, and the second mounting slot 220. The entire wiring 400 is located inside the chair, providing effective protection for the electrical system. The mounting base 300 is used to connect the power receiving components and can transmit power from the support leg 100 to components such as the armrests or seat. Multiple mounting bases 300 can be arranged along the second mounting slot 220, allowing multiple power receiving components to be charged simultaneously.

[0060] In some embodiments, the base includes a crossbeam 200 and a mounting base 300. The crossbeam 200 has a second mounting groove 220 arranged in a left-right direction, and the mounting base 300 is disposed within the second mounting groove 220. The mounting base 300 and the crossbeam 200 are separately arranged, and multiple mounting bases 300 are arranged sequentially along the second mounting groove 220. The mounting bases 300 are used to install components such as chair seats and armrests, facilitating installation.

[0061] In some embodiments, the base is provided with a sliding groove 310, which is arranged along the Y direction, and the slider 500 is disposed in the sliding groove 310. The slider 500 can slide along the sliding groove 310. The sliding groove 310 restricts the slider 500 from moving in other directions, and also allows the slider 500 to move in a predetermined direction, thereby improving the installation stability of the slider 500 and preventing the slider 500 from detaching from the base.

[0062] In some embodiments, at least two blocking blocks 510 are provided. Since the internal movement space of the first movable slot 720 is small, the movement distance of the blocking block is limited. Setting an excessively large blocking block 510 is not conducive to the block being inserted into the slot 710 and is not conducive to movement. Setting a single small blocking block 510 results in a small contact surface of the blocking block 510 and low installation stability. Setting multiple small blocking blocks 510 is beneficial for installing the blocking block to slide into the slot 710 and sliding within the first movable slot 720.

[0063] In some embodiments, in a first embodiment of the drive member 600, the drive member 600 includes a threaded rod disposed on the mounting member 700, and the sliding member 500 is provided with a threaded hole, the threaded rod and the threaded hole being threadedly connected. The sliding groove 310 restricts the sliding member 500 to slide only in the Y direction. Through the cooperation of the threaded rod and the threaded hole, the threaded rod is kept stationary in the Y direction. Through the rotation of the threaded rod, the sliding member 500 can slide in the Y direction.

[0064] Furthermore, during installation, the mounting component 700 can be first installed onto the sliding component 500. The mounting component 700 has a stepped hole. The threaded rod is inserted through the mounting hole 730 until it abuts against the threaded hole of the sliding component 500. The threaded rod is screwed into the threaded hole. While rotating, the threaded rod is driven by external force to move towards the sliding component until the nut of the threaded rod abuts against the stepped hole. At this time, the threaded rod and the sliding component 500 are installed. Further rotating the threaded rod causes the sliding component 500 to move towards the threaded rod, causing the slot 710 and the blocking block 510 to be misaligned, thus completing the installation.

[0065] In some embodiments, in a second embodiment of the drive member 600, the drive member 600 includes a telescopic motor, and a small telescopic motor is provided at the slider 500 to drive the slider 500 to slide in the Y direction.

[0066] In some embodiments, the mounting member 700 is provided with mounting holes 730, and the mounting member 700 is used to connect other chair components. The mounting member 700 is a connector. During installation, the mounting member 700 is first fixed to the chair component such as the seat or armrest, and the two are fixedly connected through the mounting holes 730. Then, the seat or armrest is installed on the mounting base 300, which facilitates modular production and improves production efficiency.

[0067] In some embodiments, the bottom of the mounting member 700 is provided with a first recess 740, which is adapted to the shape of the upper side of the base. The first recess 740 cooperates with the upper side of the base, which can effectively limit the position of the mounting member 700 and the base in the front-back direction. Combined with the fixing restriction of the mounting base 300 in the left-right direction and the restriction of the sliding member 500 and the mounting member 700 in the up-down direction, the mounting member 700 can be effectively fixed on the base, with high installation stability; the first recess 740 and the base have a larger contact surface, making the installation more stable.

[0068] In some embodiments, the first movable groove 720 is a wedge-shaped groove, and the blocking block 510 is a wedge-shaped block, with one end of the wedge-shaped groove engaging with the wedge-shaped block. One end of the wedge is wider than the other. When the blocking block 510 is positioned at the wider end of the wedge-shaped groove, the engagement between the blocking block 510 and the first movable groove 720 is relatively loose, which facilitates disassembly and installation. When the blocking block 510 is positioned at the wider end of the wedge-shaped groove, the engagement between the blocking block 510 and the first movable groove 720 is more precise, and the two fit together more securely, resulting in more stable installation.

[0069] Understandably, a wedge is similar to an inverted triangle, a shape that is pointed at the bottom and wider at the top. A wedge is an irregular cross-section of wood or stone; generally, this cross-section should have sharp angles, like a wedge.

[0070] In some embodiments, the base is provided with a second movable groove 320, and the blocking block 510 passes through the second movable groove 320 and is inserted into the first movable groove 720. The second movable groove 320 restricts the movement of the blocking block 510 to within the second movable groove 320, preventing the blocking block 510 from sliding in any direction other than the Y direction, and also providing protection for the blocking block 510.

[0071] In some embodiments, a cover plate 230 is also included, which covers the end of the crossbeam 200. A gap 240 is provided between the cover plate 230 and the crossbeam 200, and the first mounting groove 210 and the second mounting groove 220 communicate along the gap 240. The cover plate 230 is used to protect both ends of the crossbeam 200 and prevent the interior of the crossbeam 200 from communicating with the outside. The wiring 400 is arranged through the first mounting groove 210-gap 240-second mounting groove 220, so that the wiring 400 located on the upper side of the crossbeam 200 can be laid into the second mounting groove 220. The wiring 400 is entirely arranged inside the crossbeam 200, isolating the wiring 400 from the outside and protecting it. The wiring 400 is arranged along the gap 240, and no additional processing is required in the lateral direction, reducing the processing difficulty.

[0072] In some embodiments, the crossbeam 200 has a through hole in the middle, and the line 400 is installed through the hole, running from bottom to top from the first mounting groove 210 to the second mounting groove 220.

[0073] In some embodiments, the cover plate 230 is provided with a first connecting plate 231 and a second connecting plate 232, which are respectively inserted into a first mounting groove 210 and a second mounting groove 220. With the first connecting plate 231 and the second connecting plate 232 respectively inserted into the first mounting groove 210 and the second mounting groove 220, the cover plate 230 can be stably installed on the crossbeam 200, improving installation stability.

[0074] In some embodiments, the first connecting plate 231 and / or the second connecting plate 232 are connected to the crossbeam 200 by screws 233. The first connecting plate 231 or the second connecting plate 232 is fixed to the crossbeam 200 by screws 233.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second mounting slot 220 is provided with a T-slot, and the mounting base 300 is provided with a T-block. T-slot mounting has the advantages of being easy to process and install, suitable for small workpieces, flexible in adjustment, and lightweight.

[0076] In some embodiments, the support leg 100 is provided with a second recess 120, which is adapted to the lower side of the crossbeam 200. The engagement between the second recess 120 and the lower side of the crossbeam 200 can effectively limit the position of the support leg 100 and the base in the front-back direction, resulting in high installation stability; the second recess 120 and the base have a larger contact surface, making the installation more stable.

[0077] In some embodiments, the mounting base 300 has a through hole through which the wiring 400 passes and connects to the power receiving component. The wiring 400 passes through the through hole and is fixedly connected to the power receiving component, providing power to the power receiving component.

[0078] In some embodiments, multiple mounting bases 300 are provided, and the mounting bases 300 are sequentially arranged along the first mounting groove 210. The line 400 is arranged along the second mounting groove 220, and the line 400 has multiple branches, which are respectively arranged on the mounting bases 300. Multiple mounting bases 300 can be arranged along the second mounting groove 220, and multiple power-connecting components can be charged simultaneously.

[0079] In some embodiments, the line 400 is provided in multiple segments, which are respectively provided on the support 100 and the crossbeam 200, and are connected to each other by connectors. By providing multiple segments of line 400 on different components, the corresponding connectors are connected before installation to facilitate installation.

[0080] An installation method includes the following steps:

[0081] Place the mounting base 300 into the crossbeam 200;

[0082] When the mounting component 700 is placed into the sliding component 500, and the mounting component 700 slides toward the sliding component 500, the blocking block 510 can pass through the slot 710 and enter the first movable slot 720.

[0083] The driving member drives the sliding member 500 to slide, causing the blocking block 510 and the slot 710 to be misaligned in the X direction. The driving member locks the sliding member 500, so that the mounting member 700 is fixed on the mounting base 300.

[0084] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. This utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments.
