Detailed implementation mode

[0027] To deepen the understanding of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in combination with implementation cases and drawings. The present utility model can be implemented in the following manner:

[0028] Referring to Figures 1-4 , a chair leg capable of limiting the rotation angle of a swivel chair, comprising a limit rotating shaft assembly 1, and a mounting seat 2 and a leg body 3 respectively arranged above and below the limit rotating shaft assembly 1.

[0029] Among them, the limit rotating shaft assembly 1 includes a limit sleeve 11 fixedly connected to the leg body 3, a rotating shaft 12 rotating relative to the limit sleeve 11, and a limit ring 13 rotating synchronously with the rotating shaft 12. The limit ring 13 is movably arranged above the limit sleeve 11. A limit block 131 protrudes outward from the side surface of the limit ring 13, and a limit arc plate 111 protrudes upward from the top of the limit sleeve 11. In this embodiment, the limit arc plate 111 on the limit sleeve 11 is used to block the limit block 131 on the limit ring 13, so that the rotating shaft 12 fixedly connected to the limit ring 13 can only rotate within a specific angle range. When the limit block 131 rotates to the end of the limit arc plate 111, it stops rotating. That is, the arc length of the limit arc plate 111 plus the central angle corresponding to the limit block 131 is the rotation limit angle of the rotating shaft 12, and the angle range within which the rotating shaft 12 can rotate is 360° minus the rotation limit angle. If you want to reduce the rotation angle range of the swivel chair, you can choose to replace the limit ring 13 with a limit block 131 with a longer arc or the limit sleeve 11 with a limit arc plate 111 with a longer arc.

[0030] In this embodiment, a circumferential snap ring 121 protrudes radially outward from the middle of the rotating shaft 12, and the limit ring 13 is located below the circumferential snap ring 121. An installation flange 122 for clamping the limit ring 13 is arranged below the circumferential snap ring 121 on the rotating shaft 12. During assembly, the limit ring 13 can be directly sleeved on the installation flange 122. The outer side surface of the installation flange 122 is elliptical, and the inner side surface of the limit ring 13 is an elliptical installation hole 132 adapted to the installation flange 122. This design can prevent the limit ring 13 from slipping during the rotation process following the rotating shaft 12, and ensure that the limit ring 13 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 12.

[0031] The described rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the limit sleeve 11 through a guide sleeve 14, and the guide sleeve 14 is arranged below the limit ring 13. With this design, the circumferential snap ring 121 and the guide sleeve 14 clamp the limit ring 13, enabling it to rotate only on the horizontal plane where the limit arc plate 111 is located. The guide sleeve 14 is made of plastic material, and a number of buffer teeth 141 are evenly distributed on the side surface of the guide sleeve 14, which can reduce the shaking degree of the chair during rotation. A circumferential flange 142 is provided at the top of the guide sleeve 14, and a stepped clamping portion 112 for clamping the circumferential flange 142 is provided at the top of the inner side surface of the limit sleeve 11. A support ring 123 for clamping the bottom of the guide sleeve 14 extends radially outward at the bottom of the rotating shaft 12, preventing the guide sleeve 14 from detaching from the rotating shaft 12, so that the guide sleeve 14 can only rotate between the limit ring 13 and the support ring 123.

[0032] In this embodiment, a central hole 31 for the limit sleeve 11 to be embedded is provided at the center of the foot body 3. The foot body 3 includes a rotating shaft sleeve 32 and five feet 33 evenly distributed on the outer side surface of the rotating shaft sleeve 32. The inner side surface of the rotating shaft sleeve 32 is fixedly connected to the outer side surface of the limit sleeve 11. A decorative sleeve 34 is sleeved outside the rotating shaft sleeve 32, and the top of the decorative sleeve 34 extends to the bottom of the mounting seat 2. With this design, not only does the appearance of the chair leg become more beautiful, but also it can prevent dust from entering the limit rotating shaft assembly 1. A detachable foot pad 35 is provided at the bottom of the end of the foot 33 away from the limit rotating shaft assembly 1. A groove 351 adapted to the shape of the free end of the foot 33 is provided at the top of the foot pad 35. The foot pad 35 is made of a buffer material, which can not only play a buffering role to prevent the foot 33 from being scratched, but also keep the bottoms of the five feet 33 balanced.

[0033] In this embodiment, the mounting seat 2 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 12; a upper sleeve 21 fixedly connected to the upper end of the rotating shaft 12 is provided at the center of the mounting seat 2, and a rotating shaft hole 211 for the upper end of the limit rotating shaft assembly 1 to be embedded is provided in the upper sleeve 21. The upper sleeve 21 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 2. A number of seat mounting holes 22 for the seat of the mounting seat 2 are provided on the mounting seat 2. During assembly, the seat is placed on the mounting seat 2, and then fixing parts such as screws or bolts are used to pass through the seat mounting holes 22 to fix the seat on the mounting seat 2, so that the seat can rotate synchronously with the rotating shaft 12.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
