Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile seat accessories, in particular to a seat recliner with a locking mechanism. Background Technique

[0002] A seat recliner is a device installed on an automobile seat for adjusting the inclination angle of the seat back. The seat recliner allows the driver or passenger to adjust the inclination angle of the seat back according to personal needs and comfort. This angle adjustment function can help passengers find the best sitting posture, thus providing a more comfortable and healthy riding experience.

[0003] During the use of the seat recliner, the operator needs to press the adjustment device with one hand, so that the adjustment device pops up the locking pin, separates the locking pin from the locking teeth inside the seat recliner, and then the operator rotates the adjustment wheel with the other hand to adjust the inclination angle of the seat by the adjustment wheel. After adjusting the position of the seat, the operator releases the adjustment device. At this time, the adjustment device releases the restraint on the locking pin, and the locking pin is reinserted into the locking teeth inside the seat recliner, thereby realizing the locking and fixing of the seat.

[0004] In the existing ones during use, although the seat can be locked and fixed through the cooperation of the locking pin and the locking teeth, in the subsequent use process, due to the relatively small size or thin thickness of the locking pin, the locking pin often deforms due to external force, and finally the locking effect on the seat is reduced. When adjusting the seat, the operator also needs to operate with both hands at the same time, and the whole adjustment process is relatively cumbersome. Therefore, we propose a seat recliner with a locking mechanism. Content of the Utility Model
