[0037] The following will describe the implementation of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific implementations, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating the present invention, not for limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic illustrations of the basic concept of the present invention, and thus the drawings only show components related to the present invention rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component may be changed at will, and the component layout may also be more complicated.

[0039] like Figure 1-7 The present application provides a seat back bent tube structure, including a back bent tube 1 and a serpentine spring 3 arranged on the back bent tube 1. A hook 2 is fixedly provided at the connection of the back bent tube 1 corresponding to the serpentine spring 3. It is worth noting that a hook 2 is provided on each side of the back bent tube 1 for hanging the serpentine spring 3. The two end portions of the serpentine spring 3 are hung on two hooks 2 respectively. A noise reduction component is provided at the connection between the hook 2 and the serpentine spring 3. The noise reduction component is used to reduce the risk of abnormal noise when the burrs of the hook 2 rub against the serpentine spring 3.

[0040] Combined with Figure 3 The noise reduction component includes a rubber sleeve 4. The rubber sleeve 4 is sleeved on the end of the serpentine spring 3. In this way, when the serpentine spring 3 moves relative to the hanging ear 2, the rubber sleeve 4 can isolate the serpentine spring 3 and the hanging ear 2, and control the abnormal sound from the source.

[0041] Combined with Figure 4 , the noise reduction component may also include an isolation protrusion 22. The isolation protrusion 22 is arranged on the hanging ear 2. The hanging ear 2 is composed of a welding surface 21 and a bending surface 23. The welding surface 21 is used to connect to the backrest bend 1. In actual application, the welding surface 21 is fixed to the backrest bend 1 by welding. The bending surface 23 is used for hanging the end of the serpentine spring 3. The isolation protrusion 22 is arranged on the side where the bending surface 23 is connected to the serpentine spring 3, and is used to prevent the serpentine spring 3 from directly contacting the bending surface 23. In view of the prior art that the serpentine spring 3 is hung on the hanging ear 2, the hanging ear 2 is in direct contact with the serpentine spring 3 for a long time, and the sheet metal is in direct contact for a long time, and a "creaking" sound will occur during use. To solve this problem, the hanging ear 2 is made into a sunken platform structure, that is, the isolation protrusion 22, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 By reducing the contact area between the ear 2 and the serpentine spring 3, the abnormal noise phenomenon during use is optimized. The isolation protrusion 22 can be formed by a sink structure, or it can be formed by welding a protrusion on the bending surface 23. In the present application, a sink structure is used, which is simple to manufacture, does not require additional materials, and does not change the original quality of the ear 2.

[0042] The rubber sleeve 4 and the isolation protrusion 22 can be used alone or in combination. When the two are used in combination, the isolation protrusion 22 can also prevent the rubber sleeve 4 from being broken through and damaged by the sheet metal burrs on the bending surface 23.

[0043] A headrest conduit 9 is fixedly arranged on the top of the backrest curved pipe 1. A decorative rear support plate 7 is arranged at the connection between the headrest conduit 9 and the backrest curved pipe 1. The decorative rear support plate 7 is used to improve the connection strength between the headrest conduit 9 and the backrest curved pipe 1. Specifically, Figure 5 The headrest conduit 9 is formed by welding an inverted U-shaped bend pipe to the triangular area at the upper end of the backrest bend pipe. In this way, the cost of the headrest can be reduced and the support of the integrated headrest backrest bend pipe can be increased.

[0044] The decorative rear support plate 7 is set to a polygon. The decorative rear support plate 7 is provided with a flange at the place where it is connected to the backrest elbow 1. In the present application, the decorative rear support plate 7 can be conveniently fixed to the place where the backrest elbow 1 is connected to the headrest conduit 9 by setting the flange. Preferably, a support frame 71 with a hexagonal flanged sheet metal is used, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 The sheet metal is punched in the middle to form a hexagonal structure, and each of the six sides is flanged. Among them, flange 73, flange 74, flange 76, flange 77 and four flanges are welded to the triangular area at the upper end of the backrest elbow, and flange 72 and flange 75 play a reinforcing role. After welding, the backrest elbow frame is more solid and stable. The punched holes on the sheet metal are used as decorative parts installation holes.

[0045] In order to improve the strength of the backrest bent tube 1 and prevent it from deforming, in the present application, a plurality of supporting steel wires are also provided on the backrest bent tube 1. Specifically, a backrest upper steel wire 5 is welded at the upper corner of the backrest bent tube 1 to support the backrest foam. Furthermore, parts such as a lower front supporting steel wire 6 for a decorative part, an upper front supporting steel wire 8 for a decorative part, and a rear supporting plate 7 for a decorative part are welded in the triangular area of ​​the backrest bent tube 1 near the headrest conduit 9 for assembling the backrest decorative part.

[0046] A backrest lower transverse pipe 10 is arranged below the backrest bent pipe 1 to increase the strength of the backrest bent pipe 1 and prevent the pipe frame from deforming.

[0047] The bottom of the backrest bend 1 is provided with a recliner 13. The backrest bend 1 is provided with a side plate 12 corresponding to the recliner 13. In order to solve the problems of the conventional backrest side plate being large and the frame being heavy, the design of the side plate 12 at the recliner 13 is as follows: Figure 7 , add a sheet metal side plate to the welding position of the lower right corner of the backrest bend 1 and the lower cross tube 10 of the backrest, wrap it around the welding point, and use it as a welding side plate for the angle adjuster to form a U-shaped groove welded on the backrest bend. It not only meets the installation and welding requirements of the angle adjuster 13, but also reduces the weight of the entire backrest bend 1, thereby achieving lightweight seat frame. The present application replaces the welded side plate structure with a tube frame welded steel wire structure, thereby reducing a side plate 12 and an angle adjuster 13, and replaces the original angle adjuster connecting side plate with a combination of a tube frame welded side plate and a welded steel wire, thereby reducing the size of the side plate 12. It effectively saves manufacturing costs, mold and tooling costs, reduces the weight of the frame, and achieves advantages such as lightweight seats.

[0048] Combined with Figure 1 and Figure 7 , the backrest side wing support steel wires 11 are welded on the side plate 12 and the backrest bent pipe 1 to support the side wing foams on both sides of the backrest. The backrest bottom support steel wires 14 are welded on the bottom of the backrest lower cross pipe 10 to support the bottom foam and realize the surface cover hanging. The overall backrest bent pipe weight is reduced and the manufacturing cost is reduced.

[0049] The present application also provides a seat assembly, which includes a seat body and a seat back bent tube structure, wherein the seat back bent tube structure is mounted on the seat body.

[0050] Furthermore, the present application also provides a vehicle, which includes a vehicle body and the seat assembly as described above, wherein the seat assembly is mounted on the vehicle body.

[0051] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments for fully illustrating the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitution or modification made by a person skilled in the art based on the present invention is within the protection scope of the present invention.
