[0053] Unless otherwise stated, the numerical ranges herein include not only the entire range within its two endpoints but also include several sub-ranges contained therein.

[0054] Figures 1 to 4A lifting device is shown, which is used for a seat cushion. The lifting device includes a driving mechanism 103 and a transmission assembly 104. The driving mechanism 103 is arranged on the seat base 100. The transmission assembly 104 is connected to the driving mechanism 103 and is used to lift one end of the seat cushion close to the backrest.

[0055] According to the lifting device of the present invention, the driving mechanism 103 drives the seat cushion to lift through the transmission assembly 104, so that the gap between the seat cushion and the seat back can be eliminated after the seat back is adjusted, which can better support the human body and improve the comfort of the seat.

[0056] Optionally, the seat cushion further includes a cushion frame 101, one end of a transmission assembly 104 is rotatably connected to the driving mechanism 103, and the other end of the transmission assembly 104 is rotatably connected to the cushion frame 101. The driving mechanism 103 drives the transmission assembly 104 to lift one end of the cushion frame 101 close to the backrest. The driving mechanism 103, the transmission assembly 104 and the cushion frame 101 are rotatably connected, which is conducive to saving space and more stable transmission.

[0057] Optionally, the transmission assembly 104 may be a seesaw mechanism, which has a stable transmission mode and can effectively support the seat cushion frame 101 .

[0058] Furthermore, the transmission assembly 104 includes an adjustment plate 120 and a connecting member 150. The adjustment plate 120 is disposed on the seat base 100 and can rotate relative to the seat base 100 around a first horizontal axis AX1. The first end of the adjustment plate 120 is connected to the driving mechanism 103. The first end of the connecting member 150 is used to be rotatably connected to the seat cushion frame 101, and the second end of the connecting member 150 is rotatably connected to the second end of the adjustment plate 120. The driving mechanism 103 drives the adjustment plate 120 to rotate relative to the seat base 100, and drives the seat cushion frame 101 to be lifted through the connecting member 150, so that the gap between the seat cushion and the seat back can be eliminated after the seat back is adjusted, which can better support the human body and improve the comfort of the seat.

[0059] Figure 1A seat according to the utility model is shown (the filling material and outer packaging structure of the seat are hidden), the seat includes a base 100, a cushion frame 101 and a backrest frame 102, the cushion frame 101 is arranged on the base 100, the backrest frame 102 is arranged on the base 100 and is spaced apart from the cushion frame 101 along the lateral direction D1, that is, the backrest frame 102 is located at the rear end of the seat cushion (that is, the lifting end of the seat cushion). The backrest frame 102 is rotatably arranged relative to the base 100, so that the angle of the seat back can be adjusted. When the seat back is laid flat, it is inevitable that there will be a gap between the bottom end of the seat back and the seat cushion along the height direction D2, so that the gap position cannot support the human body well, affecting the comfort of the seat. For this reason, the lifting device according to the utility model can be used to lift the seat cushion independently, thereby eliminating the gap between the seat cushion and the backrest. The following is combined with the attached Figures 1 to 4 Further explanation.

[0060] like Figure 4 As shown, the connecting member 150 is rotatably arranged relative to the seat cushion frame 101 around the second horizontal axis AX2, the connecting member 150 is rotatably arranged relative to the adjustment plate 120 around the third horizontal axis AX3, and the first horizontal axis AX1, the second horizontal axis AX2 and the third horizontal axis AX3 are all arranged in parallel, so that the seat cushion frame 101, the connecting member 150, the adjustment plate 120 and the base 100 are configured as a connecting rod structure, thereby lifting the seat cushion frame 101.

[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, the lifting device includes a fixing plate 130, which is fixed to the base 100 and located on one side of the cushion frame 101. Further, the driving mechanism 103 includes a driving member 140 and a driving gear 110. The driving member 140 can be a motor, which is fixed relative to the base 100, and the driving member 140 can be fixed to the base 100 or fixed to the fixing plate 130. The driving member 140 is located on one side of the fixing plate 130 close to the cushion frame 101, and the output shaft of the driving member 140 is passed through the fixing plate 130 and connected to the driving gear 110. The adjusting plate 120 is provided with meshing teeth 121, and the meshing teeth 121 mesh with the driving gear 110. Furthermore, the first end of the connecting member 150 is rotatably connected to one side of the cushion frame 101. When the driving member 140 is started, the output shaft of the driving member 140 drives the driving gear 110 to rotate, and the adjustment plate 120 is driven to rotate around the first horizontal axis AX1 through the cooperation between the driving gear 110 and the meshing teeth 121 , thereby lifting the seat cushion frame 101 through the connecting member 150 .

[0062] Overall, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4The lifting device further includes a transmission member 170 and two connecting members 150. The transmission member 170 and the adjustment plate 120 are respectively arranged on both sides of the base 100. One end of one connecting member 150 is rotatably connected to the adjustment plate 120, and the other end is rotatably connected to the cushion frame 101. One end of another connecting member 150 is rotatably connected to the transmission member 170, and the other end is rotatably connected to the cushion frame 101. The transmission member 170 is rotatable around the first horizontal axis AX1 relative to the base 100 of the seat, so that both sides of the cushion frame 101 are supported and driven by the connecting member 150, so that the lifting of the cushion frame 101 is more stable.

[0063] Optionally, the connecting member 150, the adjustment plate 120 and the transmission member 170 can all be sheet metal stamping parts, which have high structural strength and are helpful in saving seat layout space.

[0064] Further, see Figure 1 The lifting device also includes a transverse axis 180, the axis of which is the first horizontal axis AX1. The first end of the transverse axis 180 is passed through the adjustment plate 120 and fixed to the adjustment plate 120, and the second end of the transverse axis 180 is passed through the transmission member 170 and fixed to the transmission member 170, so that when the adjustment plate 120 rotates, the transmission member 170 can be driven to rotate through the transverse axis 180, so that both sides of the cushion frame 101 are supported and lifted, making it more stable.

[0065] Reference Figure 4 The lifting device further includes a limiting mechanism 160, which includes a fixing portion 161 and a limiting portion 162. The fixing portion 161 is fixed relative to the base 100, and specifically, the fixing portion 161 is fixed to the fixing plate 130. The limiting portion 162 is provided on the adjustment plate 120, and the fixing portion 161 is connected to the limiting portion 162. The limiting portion 162 is movably provided within a fixed stroke relative to the fixing portion 161, so that the rotation stroke of the adjustment plate 120 around the first horizontal axis AX1 can be within a certain range, so as to prevent the lifting of the cushion frame 101 from conflicting with other positions of the seat, thereby preventing the driving member 140 from being damaged.

[0066] Specifically, the limiting portion 162 is constructed as a groove and extends in an arc direction around the first horizontal axis AX1, and the fixing portion 161 is constructed as a pin and passes through the limiting portion 162. Therefore, when the adjustment plate 120 rotates around the first horizontal axis AX1, the fixing portion 161 is offset between the two ends of the limiting portion 162 relative to the adjustment plate 120, thereby limiting the rotational travel of the adjustment plate 120.

[0067] In addition, the fixing portion 161 and the driving member 140 are both disposed on the fixing plate 130 , so that the limiting mechanism 160 and the driving mechanism 103 are integrated together, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0068] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The lifting device also includes a linkage lifting mechanism 190, which is arranged at the lifting end of the seat cushion. The linkage lifting mechanism 190 is at least partially fixed relative to the adjustment plate 120, and the linkage lifting mechanism 190 rotates with the rotation of the adjustment plate 120.

[0069] In other words, the linkage lifting mechanism 190 is configured to rotate with the rotation of the adjustment plate 120. The lifting position of the seat cushion acted on by the linkage lifting mechanism 190 is located on the side of the first horizontal axis AX1 closer to the seat back, so that the end of the seat cushion closer to the seat back (i.e., the lifting end of the seat cushion) can be further lifted, so that after the seat back is laid flat, the seat cushion can better support the human body.

[0070] Specifically, the linkage lifting mechanism 190 includes two linkage plates 191 and a linkage shaft 192. The two linkage plates 191 are spaced apart along the transverse direction D1 and are respectively located on both sides of the cushion frame 101. The linkage plates 191 are fixedly arranged relative to the adjustment plate 120. Specifically, both ends of the transverse shaft 180 are respectively connected to the two linkage plates 191, so that the linkage plates 191 can rotate with the rotation of the adjustment plate 120. The linkage shaft 192 extends along the transverse direction D1 and is located on the side of the first horizontal axis AX1 closer to the seat back. The linkage shaft 192 is fixed between the two linkage plates 191 and is located in the seat cushion, so that the linkage shaft 192 rotates with the rotation of the linkage plates 191. When the driving member 140 is started, the adjustment plate 120 rotates, so that the transverse shaft 180 rotates, thereby driving the two linkage plates 191 to rotate, so that the linkage shaft 192 rotates around the first horizontal axis AX1, thereby further lifting the seat cushion.

[0071] Optionally, the linkage shaft 192 may be passed through the seat cushion without being connected to the cushion frame 101, and is used to independently lift the lifting end of the seat cushion to support the human body, so that the seat cushion has multiple lifting positions suitable for supporting the human body.

[0072] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the utility model also provides a seat, including a base 100, a seat cushion, a seat back and the lifting device according to the above, the seat cushion is arranged on the base 100, and the front end of the seat cushion (i.e., the end opposite to the lifting end of the seat cushion) is overlapped to the base 100. The seat back is arranged on the base 100 and is located at the rear end of the seat cushion (i.e., the lifting end of the seat cushion). The lifting device is arranged on the side of the seat cushion.

[0073] According to the seat of the utility model, the gap between the seat cushion and the seat back can be eliminated after the seat back is adjusted, thereby better supporting the human body and improving the comfort of the seat. In addition, the lifting device is arranged on the side of the seat cushion to prevent the lifting device from contacting the human body on the seat, thereby preventing the lifting device from causing discomfort to the human body.

[0074] The utility model also provides a vehicle, comprising the seat according to the above. The vehicle according to the utility model has a high seat comfort.
