DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are only descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the protection scope of the present invention.

[0025] It should be noted that like reference numerals denote similar items in the following drawings, and thus, once an item is defined in one drawing, it may not be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings.

[0026] This embodiment mainly describes a foldable seat for an all-terrain vehicle, as follows:

[0027] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, a foldable seat of an all-terrain vehicle comprises a vehicle body and a seat arranged on the vehicle body, the seat comprising a seat plate 1 and a backrest 2, an installation chamber 3 is arranged on the seat plate 1, for easy installation, the installation chamber 3 is arranged on the rear side of the seat plate 1, a connecting member 4 is arranged in the installation chamber 3, the connecting member 4 is used to connect the backrest 2 and the seat plate 1, the connecting member 4 comprises a first connecting arm 41 and a second connecting arm 42, the first connecting arm 41 and the second connecting arm 42 are fixedly connected, preferably the first connecting arm 41 and the second connecting arm 42 are integrally formed, the first connecting arm 41 and the second connecting arm 42 have an angle so that the connection between the first connecting arm 41 and the second connecting arm 42 forms a corner 43, vertical sliding holes 31 and arc-shaped sliding holes 32 connected to the vertical sliding holes 31 are arranged on the two side walls of the installation chamber 3, and the arc-shaped sliding holes 32 are connected to the vertical sliding holes 31. The center of the circle 32 coincides with the center of the highest point of the vertical sliding hole 31, and the distance from the connection point between the arc-shaped sliding hole 32 and the vertical sliding hole 31 to the highest point of the vertical sliding hole 31 is equal to the radius of the arc-shaped sliding hole 32, the diameter of the second connecting arm 42 is equal to the radius of the arc-shaped sliding hole 32, and a connecting shaft 44 rotatably connected to the corner 43 is slidably provided in the vertical sliding hole 31. The free end of the first connecting arm 41 is fixed on the backrest 2, and the free end of the second connecting arm 42 is hinged with a folding limit assembly 5 through a hinge shaft 45. The folding limit assembly 5 can support and limit the second connecting arm 42. The hinge shaft 45 is slidably arranged in the arc-shaped sliding hole 32. When the hinge shaft 45 slides in the arc-shaped sliding hole 32, the second connecting arm 42 and the folding limit assembly 5 can slide along the wall of the arc-shaped sliding hole 32 with the hinge shaft 45. When the seat is in a folded state, the connecting shaft 44 and the hinge shaft 45 are located in the vertical slide groove. When the seat is unfolded, the connecting shaft 44 and the hinge shaft 45 slide upward along the vertical slide hole 31. When the hinge shaft 45 slides to the arc-shaped slide hole 32, it slides upward along the arc-shaped slide hole 32 to fully unfold the seat and then fix it through the folding limit assembly 5 to keep the seat in a fully unfolded state. Setting the seat of the all-terrain vehicle as a foldable structure can greatly improve the space utilization rate in the vehicle. When cargo needs to be loaded, the seat can be folded to provide more space for loading cargo.

[0028] like Figure 4As shown, the folding limit assembly 5 includes a two-link mechanism 51, a first limit gear 52 and a second limit gear 53. The two-link mechanism 51 is used to support the first connecting arm 41 and the second connecting arm 42. One end of the two-link mechanism 51 is rotatably connected to the second connecting arm 42 through a hinge shaft 45. The first limit gear 52 is fixed to the other end of the two-link mechanism 51. One end of the two-link mechanism 51 connected to the first limit gear 52 is coaxially rotatably connected to the inner wall of the installation chamber 3 with the first limit gear 52. The second limit gear 53 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the installation chamber 3 through the rotating shaft 54 ​​and is always engaged with the first limit gear 52. The outer end of the rotating shaft 54 ​​extends out of the two side walls of the installation chamber 3. The end of the rotating shaft 54 ​​is slidably provided with a special-shaped plug body 55. Specifically, the special-shaped plug body 55 is connected to the rotating shaft 54 ​​by a flat key or a spline. A limit hole 56 corresponding to the position of the rotating shaft 54 ​​is provided on the side wall of the seat plate 1. The shape of the limit hole 56 matches the special-shaped plug body 55, and the size of the limit hole 56 is larger than the diameter of the rotating shaft 54. When it is necessary to fix the backrest 2, slide the special-shaped plug body 55 so that the special-shaped plug body 55 cooperates with the limiting hole 56, locks the rotating shaft 54 ​​and the second limiting gear 53, thereby fixing the first limiting gear 52. The first limiting gear 52 is fixed so that the two-link mechanism 51 is fixed, forming a support for the first connecting arm 41 and the second connecting arm 42, thereby fixing the seat; when it is necessary to fold the seat, slide the special-shaped plug body 55 outward so that the special-shaped plug body 55 is disengaged from the limiting hole 56. At this time, the limiting of the first limiting gear 53 on the first limiting gear 52 is released, driving the backrest 2 to flip and fold, and the two-link mechanism 51 is folded under the pressure of the backrest 2 and the first connecting arm 41 and the second connecting arm 42, thereby realizing the folding of the seat.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the special-shaped plug body 55 can be any non-circular shape, such as a triangle, rectangle, polygon, etc. The limiting hole 56 is a triangle, rectangle, polygon, etc. that matches therewith. The plug body is designed to be special-shaped, and can be rotated by the rotating shaft 54 ​​in cooperation with the limiting hole 56 to achieve the limiting effect on the backrest 2.

[0030] Specifically, there are two connecting members 4 and two folding limiter assemblies 5, which are symmetrically arranged on the two side walls of the installation chamber 3. The design of the two connecting members 4 and the limiter enhances the stability of the backrest 2 and makes the backrest 2 evenly stressed.

[0031] like Figure 4As shown, a first connecting rod 6 for fixing the two connecting members 4 is provided between the two connecting members 4, and a second connecting rod 7 for fixing the two limiting assemblies is provided between the two limiting assemblies. The design of the first connecting rod 6 makes the movement trajectories of the first connecting arm 41, the second connecting arm 42 and the two-link mechanism 51 on the left and right sides consistent when the seat is folded or unfolded, thereby avoiding the seat from getting stuck during folding or unfolding due to inconsistent movement trajectories on the left and right, thereby causing the seat to be unable to be used normally; the design of the second connecting rod 7 fixes the two first limiting gears 52 together, and when limiting the seat back 2, it is only necessary to limit the first limiting gear 52 on one side to achieve limiting on both sides.

[0032] Specifically, the two hinge shafts 45 are part of the first connecting rod 6, and the two ends of the first connecting rod 6 respectively pass through the two side walls of the installation chamber 3 and the ends are provided with limit blocks to prevent slipping, so as to prevent the first connecting rod 6 from escaping from the vertical sliding hole 31; the rotating shaft 54 ​​is part of the second connecting rod 7, and the two ends of the second connecting rod 7 respectively pass through the special-shaped plug body 55 and are slidably arranged on the two ends of the second connecting rod 7.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, a cover body 8 is provided on the outer wall of the installation chamber 3, the vertical sliding hole 31 and the arc-shaped sliding hole 32 are covered in the cover body 8, the rotating shaft 54 ​​extends outward to the outside of the cover body 8, and the limiting hole 56 is provided on the cover body 8. The setting of the cover body 8 covers the vertical sliding hole 31 and the arc-shaped sliding hole 32, making the overall appearance of the seat beautiful.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the cross section of the connecting member 4 is in a "Z" shape or a "V" shape, and in this embodiment, it is in a "Z" shape.

[0035] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or are the directions or positional relationships in which the utility model product is usually placed when in use. They are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present utility model.

[0036] The above is a detailed introduction to the foldable seat of an all-terrain vehicle provided by the utility model. This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principle and implementation method of the utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the utility model and its core ideas.
