Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of furniture, in particular to a seat with a seat-back linkage. Background Art

[0002] As an indispensable tool for home life and office environment, chairs not only have higher and higher comfort requirements for home life, but also have significantly improved requirements for comfort and operability of chairs under the premise of work efficiency in office environment. The design of the traditional chassis structure of general chairs nowadays limits the corresponding displacement of the seat when the user leans back; that is, the movement between the backrest and the seat is independent of each other. As a result, the front and rear distance between the backrest and the seat will change when the backrest is reclined. When the seat position remains unchanged, the backrest and the user's back will be relatively displaced and rubbed, causing discomfort, resulting in the so-called "back rubbing and waist running" problem.

[0003] In response to the above problems, manufacturers have launched seats with ergonomically linked seat backs, which are collectively referred to as seat back linkage chairs. In the vast majority of current seat back linkage chairs, the linkage between the seat back and the seat is achieved through the chassis structure under the seat.

[0004] The method of realizing seat-back linkage through chassis structure is very common in current office chair structures; however, the coordination and structure between the corresponding chassis are undoubtedly complicated and cumbersome; the biggest problem is that the processing and manufacturing costs of the chassis are very high. The mold of a chassis and the cost of manufacturing the chassis are very expensive; which indirectly leads to the high price of the seat.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to design a seat with a streamlined structure and a lower seat-back linkage. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the utility model provides a seat-back linkage sitting tool, including a bracket as the main body support of the sitting tool, a back support member supporting the back of the human body and a seat part supporting the buttocks of the human body. The bracket serves as the main body support, removes and replaces the chassis in the traditional sitting tool, the back support member is rotatably connected to the bracket, and the seat part is also movably connected to the bracket through a rotating connection part and a connecting rod. The seat part, the rotating connection part, the connecting rod and the bracket constitute a four-bar mechanism, and the seat part is driven to move by the rotation of the back support member on the bracket to realize the seat-back linkage function. The seat-back linkage makes the sitting tool have the effect of preventing back rubbing and waist running; after the chassis is cancelled, the cost of the sitting tool is greatly reduced, and the time of production and assembly is saved, and the production efficiency is improved. This scheme increases the production benefit while ensuring comfort; in order to avoid tipping, when the back support member tilts backward, the seat part moves forward and upward to maintain the balance point, and the adaptive effect is always maintained in the best state.

[0007] The technical solution of the utility model is achieved in this way:

[0008] A seat with a seat-back linkage, comprising:

[0009] A bracket, configured as the main support of the seat, the lower end of the bracket being connected to the chair leg;

[0010] A back support member configured to support the back of a human body, the back support member is provided with a rotating connection portion, and the rotating connection portion is respectively rotatably connected to the bracket and the seat portion;

[0011] The seat is configured to support the buttocks of a human body, and a connecting rod extending upward is rotatably provided on the seat, the lower end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the seat, and the upper end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the bracket;

[0012] The invention has an initial state and a reclining state; in the initial state, the back support is vertical, and the back support and the seat allow the human body to sit normally; when switching from the initial state to the reclining state, the back support drives the seat to move when rotating backward on the bracket, and the rotating connecting part and the connecting rod make the seat move forward and upward; in the reclining state, the back support supports the back of the human body by tilting backward.

[0013] In this solution, the bracket serves as the main support, removing and replacing the chassis in the traditional seat, the bracket is rotatably connected to the back support, and the seat is also movably connected to the bracket through a rotating connection part and a connecting rod. The seat, the rotating connection part, the connecting rod and the bracket constitute a four-bar mechanism, and the seat is driven to move by the rotation of the back support part on the bracket to realize the seat-back linkage function. The seat-back linkage makes the seat have the effect of preventing back rubbing and waist running; after the chassis is cancelled, the cost of the seat is greatly reduced, and the time of production and assembly is also saved, which improves production efficiency. This solution increases production benefits while ensuring comfort.

[0014] However, since this solution is a suspension chair seat without a chassis, the seat is suspended on the bracket under the action of the rotating connection part and the connecting rod, and there is no chassis support below it. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the force concentration point of the human body from deviating from the support range of the chair legs to avoid tipping:

[0015] Firstly, the center of gravity of the human body on the seat moves as the back drives the back support to tilt backward; secondly, when the back support tilts backward, the seat moves forward and upward to maintain the balance point, and the adaptive effect is always maintained in the best state.

[0016] Specifically, the pressure of the buttocks on the seat can be fed back to the back support, generating a thrust on the back support, and the pressure of the back on the back support can be fed back to the seat, generating an upward thrust on the buttocks, thereby realizing the adaptive function; when the falling angle of the back support increases, the pressure of the human back on the waist and back increases, and at the same time the forward and upward movement distance of the seat increases, the pressure formed by the human buttocks on the seat increases the feedback on the back support, thereby balancing the forces on the back support and the seat; when leaning back, the movement of the human body with the movement of the seat and the adaptive balance of the forces on the back support and the seat ensure that the force concentration point always remains within the support range of the chair legs to avoid tipping.

The length of the adjustment locking mechanism can be changed. When the four-bar linkage composed of the rotating connection part, the seat, the connecting rod and the bracket moves, the distance between the seat and the rotating connection part and the bracket will change, and the same is true for the bracket. Therefore, the adjustment locking mechanism is rotatably connected to the two parts whose distances will change, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the length with the movement of the four-bar linkage. When the adjustment locking mechanism is locked, the movement of the four-bar linkage can be locked to provide supporting force.

[0018] Preferably, the seat is in a folded state, the back support is flipped forward to a horizontal position, and the seat moves backward and upward close to the back support, so as to switch from the initial state to the folded state.

In order to prevent the locking assembly from disengaging from the locked part in the initial state and the reclining state, the spring is required to always keep the movable part in the state of locking the locked part, so that the locked part can always be in the hook groove and the groove without being separated.

[0021] Preferably, the movable member includes a switch portion, the switch portion protrudes from the base plate, and the switch portion is configured for a user to toggle the movable member and the base plate to open the locked member. The switch portion protrudes from the base plate, which is convenient for the user to control so as to switch to the folded state.

[0022] Preferably, the movable part further comprises a limiting part, and a limiting column is provided on the substrate; the limiting column is configured so that the movable part abuts against the limiting column under the action of the spring, and when the toggle switch part is turned to unlock the locked part, the limiting part abuts against the limiting column.

However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0059] In the description of the present invention, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0060] The specific implementation of the utility model is as follows: Example

[0061] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the utility model provides a seat with seat-back linkage, comprising:

[0062] The support 1 is configured as the main support of the seat, and the lower end of the support 1 is connected to the chair leg 2;

[0063] A back support member 3 is configured to support the back of a human body, and a rotating connection portion 4 is provided on the back support member 3, and the rotating connection portion 4 is rotatably connected to the bracket 1 and the seat portion 5 respectively;

[0064] The seat 5 is configured to support the buttocks of a human body. A connecting rod 6 extending upward is rotatably provided on the seat 5. The lower end of the connecting rod 6 is rotatably connected to the seat 5, and the upper end of the connecting rod 6 is rotatably connected to the bracket 1.

[0065] It has an initial state and a reclining state; in the initial state, the back support 3 is vertical, and the back support 3 and the seat 5 allow the human body to sit normally; when switching from the initial state to the reclining state, the back support 3 drives the seat 5 to move when it rotates backward on the bracket 1, and the rotating connecting part 4 and the connecting rod 6 make the seat 5 move forward and upward; in the reclining state, the back support 3 supports the back of the human body in a backward tilted manner.

[0066] In this solution, the bracket 1 serves as the main support, removing and replacing the chassis in the traditional seat, the back support 3 is rotatably connected to the bracket 1, and the seat 5 is also movably connected to the bracket 1 through the rotating connection part 4 and the connecting rod 6.

[0078] Embodiment 2: The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the folding state, the locking assembly 7, and the locked member 9 are cancelled, and the rotation connection point between the rotation connection part and the seat part in this embodiment is not higher than the seat surface; specifically:

[0079] The adjustment locking mechanism 8 is used to unlock or lock the movement among the rotating connection part 4, the seat part 5, the connecting rod 6 and the bracket 1. When unlocked, the four-bar linkage formed by the rotating connection part 4, the seat part 5, the connecting rod 6 and the bracket 1 can move to adjust the reclining angle of the back support 3. When the adjustment locking mechanism 8 is locked, the four-bar linkage is locked, the back support 3 cannot move, and the back support 3 has the ability to support the back of the human body.

[0080] Therefore, in order to achieve the above purpose, the adjustment locking mechanism 8 needs to be set between two components with variable distances, that is, one end of the adjustment locking mechanism 8 is rotatably set on the seat 5 or the bracket 1, and the other end of the adjustment locking mechanism 8 is rotatably set on the rotating connection part 4 or the connecting rod 6. The adjustment locking mechanism 8 is configured to unlock or lock the movement between the rotating connection part 4, the seat 5, the connecting rod 6 and the bracket 1.
