[0002] As the high-end multi-purpose commercial vehicle (MPV) market gradually matures, the middle row seats are integrating more and more functions, and the requirements for the seat frames are becoming higher and higher. It is a trend to configure the middle row seats with rotation, zero gravity, long travel functions and seat belt retractors fixed to the seats.

[0003] At present, existing automobile seats usually use a turntable mechanism to realize the rotation function of the seat frame. Specifically, the turntable mechanism uses a turntable to carry the seat frame. In this way, when the seat frame is subjected to an external force in the radial direction of the turntable, the seat frame will directly transfer the force to the connection structure between the seat frame and the turntable, and impact the connection stability between the seat frame and the turntable. In serious cases, it may even cause the seat frame to deviate from the installation position on the turntable, thereby making the stability of the seat frame during the rotation process and when it stops after rotation poor, and reducing the product quality of the automobile seat.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0041] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "provided on" another element, it may be directly provided on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "provided on" another element, it may be directly provided on the other element or there may be a central element at the same time. When an element is considered to be "fixed to" another element, it may be directly fixed to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time.

[0042] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art in the technical field of the present invention. The terms used 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. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0043] like Figure 8 As shown, the seat assembly 100 for which protection is sought in the present application is applied in a cockpit 200 of a car 1000 .

[0044] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, a seat assembly 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application includes a turntable mechanism 10, a seat body 20 and a limiting mechanism 30. The turntable mechanism 10 includes a turntable 11. The seat body 20 is mounted on the turntable 11 and is transmission-connected to the turntable. Moreover, the seat body 20 can rotate under the drive of the turntable 11. The limiting mechanism 30 is partially mounted on the seat body 20. Moreover, when the seat body 20 is subjected to a force in the radial direction of the turntable 11, the limiting mechanism 30 can provide an opposite force to the seat body 20.

[0045] It can be understood that the seat assembly 100 can use the force provided by the limiting mechanism 30 to the seat body 20 to balance the radial force of the turntable 11 on the seat body 20, so that when the seat body 20 is subjected to the radial force of the turntable 11, the connection structure between the seat body 20 and the turntable 11 will not be affected. This can improve the stability of the seat body 20 during the rotation process and when it stops after rotation, and improve the product quality of the seat assembly 100.

[0046] It should be noted that when the seat body 20 is subjected to a radial force, the seat body 20 will have a tendency to move relative to the turntable 11 along the direction of the radial force. At the same time, the limiting mechanism 30 is triggered and generates a force that can balance the radial force, thereby offsetting the influence of the radial force on the connection structure between the seat body 20 and the turntable 11.

[0047] like Figures 3 to 5As shown, the turntable mechanism 10 also includes a mounting base 12 and a first driving member (not shown), the turntable 11 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 12 and is in transmission connection with the first driving member, and the turntable 11 can drive the seat body 20 to rotate under the drive of the first driving member. In other words, the turntable mechanism 10 can use the first driving member to control the seat body 20 to rotate, so that the automation of the rotation control of the seat body 20 can be realized, so as to facilitate the rotation adjustment of the seat body 20. Here, the first driving member is a stepping motor, a servo motor, a rotary cylinder, etc. Of course, in other embodiments, the turntable mechanism 10 can also use a manual adjustment method to realize the rotation drive of the seat body 20. It should be noted that the installation position of the first driving member in the turntable mechanism 10 and the working principle of how to control the rotation of the turntable 11 during operation can all adopt the conventional method of the prior art, which will not be elaborated here.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the seat body 20 includes a seat frame 21 and a zero-gravity mechanism 22, wherein the seat frame 21 is mounted on the turntable 11 through the zero-gravity mechanism 22, wherein the zero-gravity mechanism 22 can adjust the inclination of the seat frame 21. That is, when the seat assembly 100 is used, the turntable mechanism 10 can be used to simultaneously perform rotation adjustment on the zero-gravity mechanism 22 and the seat frame 21, and the zero-gravity mechanism 22 can be used to adjust the inclination of the seat frame 21, that is, the seat assembly 100 integrates the application scenarios of rotation adjustment and zero-gravity adjustment. Here, the seat frame 21, the zero-gravity mechanism 22 and the turntable mechanism 10 are stacked along the height direction of the car, and are detachably connected with bolts (not shown) and other connectors, so as to avoid significantly increasing the height of the seat frame 21 and meet the comfort requirements of passengers when riding the seat assembly 100; wherein, the above-mentioned inclination adjustment of the seat frame 21 specifically refers to the seat frame 21 being able to tilt backward in the cockpit 200 with the rotation center line of the turntable 11 as the reference line. It should be noted that the assembly connection between the seat frame 21 and the zero-gravity mechanism 22, and the assembly connection between the zero-gravity mechanism 22 and the turntable 11 on the turntable mechanism 10 can all adopt existing conventional methods, which will not be elaborated here.

[0049] like Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, a mounting point 211 is formed on the seat frame 21, and the mounting point 211 is used to install the seat belt assembly. In other words, the seat frame 21 can integrate the seat belt assembly, so that the assembly of the seat assembly 100 in the car does not need to consider the installation of the seat belt assembly, which has the function of expanding the application scenario of the seat assembly 100. Here, the number of mounting points 211 is configured as three, one of which is used to install the retractor 101 of the seat belt assembly, another mounting point 211 is used to install the latch 102 of the seat belt assembly, and the remaining mounting point 211 is used to install the lower end piece 103 of the seat belt assembly. It should be noted that the specific positions of the three mounting points 211 on the seat frame 21 and how to assemble and connect with the corresponding retractor 101, latch 102 and lower end piece 103 can all adopt existing conventional methods, which will not be elaborated here.

[0050] like Figure 5 As shown, the zero gravity mechanism 22 also includes a second driving member 221, which is connected to the seat frame 21 by transmission, and the seat frame 21 can be tilted under the drive of the second driving member 221. In other words, the zero gravity mechanism 22 can use the second driving member 221 to control the seat frame 21 to adjust the tilt, so that the automation of the tilt adjustment control of the seat frame 21 can be achieved, so as to facilitate the tilt adjustment of the seat frame 21. Here, the second driving member 221 is a stepping motor, a servo motor, a rotary cylinder, etc. Of course, in other embodiments, the zero gravity mechanism 22 can also be adjusted manually to adjust the tilt of the seat frame 21. It should be noted that the installation position of the second driving member 221 in the zero gravity mechanism 22 and the working principle of how to control the tilt adjustment of the seat frame 21 during operation can all adopt the conventional method of the prior art, which will not be elaborated here.

[0051] like Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the limiting mechanism 30 includes a first limiting bracket 31 and a second limiting bracket 32, wherein the first limiting bracket 31 is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 12 of the turntable mechanism 10, and the second limiting bracket 32 ​​is fixedly mounted on the seat body 20. Specifically, the second limiting bracket 32 ​​can be fixedly mounted on the zero gravity mechanism 22, and the second limiting bracket 32 ​​is slidably matched with the first limiting bracket 31 in the circumferential direction of the turntable 11. When the second limiting bracket 32 ​​generates a movement trend in the radial direction of the turntable 11 driven by the seat body 20, the second limiting bracket 32 ​​can abut against the first limiting bracket 31 in the radial direction of the turntable 11 and form position interference, so that the movement trend of the second limiting bracket 32 ​​in the radial direction can be limited, so that the setting of the limiting mechanism 30 will not affect the rotational movement of the seat body 20, and improve the connection stability between the seat body 20 and the turntable 11, and also simplify the structure of the limiting mechanism 30. Here, the first limiting bracket 31 can be fixed to the mounting base 12 mounted on the turntable mechanism 10 by welding, and the second limiting bracket 32 ​​can be fixedly mounted on the zero gravity mechanism 22 by bolts 320 .

[0052] As preferably, Figure 5 As shown, the first position-limiting bracket 31 has a first arc-shaped plate 311, and the second position-limiting bracket 32 ​​has a second arc-shaped plate 321. The second arc-shaped plate 321 partially overlaps with the first arc-shaped plate 311 in the axial direction of the rotating disk 11, and the second arc-shaped plate 321 is slidably matched with the first arc-shaped plate 311. In other words, the first position-limiting bracket 31 and the second position-limiting bracket 32 ​​can utilize the sliding match between the first arc-shaped plate 311 and the second arc-shaped plate 321 to generate a force that can offset the radial force of the rotating disk 11 on the seat body 20.

[0053] The number of the second limit brackets 32 is configured to be multiple, and the multiple second limit brackets 32 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the rotation center line of the seat body 20. The limit mechanism 30 can provide corresponding forces when the seat body 20 is in different rotation positions, so that the application scenarios of the seat body 20 rotating at different angles can be met. Here, the number of the first limit brackets 31 is configured to be 4, and the 4 first limit brackets 31 are arranged at equal intervals along the axial direction of the turntable 11, and the number of the second limit brackets 32 is configured to be 2, and the 2 second limit brackets 32 are arranged at the diagonal position of the zero gravity mechanism 22. Of course, in other embodiments, the first limit bracket 31 can also be configured as a circular ring structure. It should be noted that when the seat frame 21 normally carries passengers in the cabin 200, the second limit bracket 32 ​​is in a sliding fit state with the corresponding first limit bracket 31; and after the seat frame 21 rotates a certain angle in the cabin 200, so as to facilitate passengers to get on and off, the second limit bracket 32 ​​is also in a sliding fit state with the corresponding first limit bracket 31.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the seat assembly 100 also includes a slide rail mechanism 40, and the turntable mechanism 10 is slidably mounted on the slide rail mechanism 40, and the turntable mechanism 10 can drive the seat body 20 to adjust its position in the front-rear direction of the car under the drive of the slide rail mechanism 40, so that the seat assembly 100 integrates the application scenario of sliding in the front-rear direction of the car. Here, the slide rail 41 on the slide rail mechanism 40 for carrying the turntable mechanism 10 has a sufficient length, and the slide rail mechanism 40 can automatically realize the position adjustment of the turntable mechanism 10 and the seat body 20 in the front-rear direction of the car. It should be noted that the structural composition of the slide rail mechanism 40 and the working principle of how to drive the turntable mechanism 10 to slide on the slide rail 41 during operation can adopt the existing conventional methods, which will not be elaborated here.

[0055] In summary, the seat assembly 100 of the present application integrates the seat belt assembly on the seat frame 21, and the seat assembly 100 can realize the functions of sliding, rotational driving and tilt adjustment of the seat frame 21 in the front and rear directions of the car according to the needs of use, so that the seat assembly 100 has many application scenarios, which can not only meet more usage needs, but also improve the comfort of passengers when riding on the seat assembly 100.

[0056] In addition, the present application also provides a car 1000 , including a cockpit 200 and the above-mentioned seat assembly 100 , wherein the seat assembly 100 is installed in the cockpit 200 .

However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

As long as they are within the spirit of the present invention, appropriate changes and modifications to the above embodiments are within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
