A first gear is fixedly sleeved on the transmission shaft. A second gear is arranged through the lower part of the backrest. A third gear is meshed between the first gear and the second gear. Fourth gears are fixedly sleeved on both ends of the transmission shaft. Armrests are respectively vertically slidably penetrated through both sides of the seat board. A rack is arranged at the bottom of the armrest. The rack is meshed with the fourth gear.

[0008] Working principle:

[0009] When the backrest needs to be rotated, rotate the transmission shaft. The rotation of the transmission shaft drives the first gear to rotate. The rotation of the first gear drives the third gear to rotate. The rotation of the third gear drives the second gear to rotate. The rotation of the second gear drives the backrest to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle of the backrest;

[0010] While the transmission shaft is rotating, it also drives the fourth gear to rotate. The rotation of the fourth gear drives the rack to move vertically. The vertical movement of the rack drives the armrest to move vertically, so that the armrest adjusts its height to cooperate with the backrest to adjust the tilt angle.

[0011] Beneficial effects:

[0012] In this solution, by setting the seat board, backrest, transmission shaft, first gear, second gear and third gear, rotating the transmission shaft drives the backrest to rotate, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the backrest;

[0013] By setting the fourth gear and the armrest, the armrest is also driven to move vertically while rotating the transmission shaft;

[0014] Therefore, in this solution, a linkage structure of the backrest and the armrest is realized by setting the transmission shaft, that is, rotating the transmission shaft drives the backrest to rotate and the armrest to move vertically at the same time. Thus, the armrest adjusts its height to cooperate with the backrest to adjust the tilt angle, which is convenient for the user to borrow force from the armrest in the tilted state and further convenient for the user to get up.

Detailed implementation manners

[0020] The technical solutions in the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Embodiment:

[0022] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, a seat with a rotatable backrest includes a seat board 1 and a backrest 2 disposed above the seat board 1. A transmission shaft 3 is rotatably disposed below the seat board 1. A first gear 4 is fixedly sleeved on the transmission shaft 3. A second gear 5 is disposed through the lower part of the backrest 2. A third gear 6 is meshed between the first gear 4 and the second gear 5. Fourth gears 7 are fixedly sleeved on both ends of the transmission shaft 3. Armrests 8 are respectively vertically slidably disposed through both sides of the seat board 1. A rack 9 is disposed at the bottom of the armrest 8. The rack 9 is meshed with the fourth gear 7.

[0023] In this solution, by providing the seat board 1, the backrest 2, the transmission shaft 3, the first gear 4, the second gear 5 and the third gear 6, the backrest 2 is rotated by rotating the transmission shaft 3, so as to adjust the inclination angle of the backrest 2. By providing the fourth gear 7 and the armrest 8, the armrest 8 is also driven to move vertically while rotating the transmission shaft 3.

[0024] Therefore, in this solution, by providing a linkage structure of the backrest 2 and the armrest 8, that is, rotating the transmission shaft 3 drives the backrest 2 to rotate and the armrest 8 to move vertically at the same time. Thus, the armrest 8 adjusts its height to cooperate with the inclination angle adjusted by the backrest 2, which is convenient for the user to borrow force from the armrest 8 in the inclined state, and further convenient for the user to get up.

[0025] As Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, "concave"-shaped first mounting blocks 10 are provided on the side walls of both of the two armrests 8. A first rotating shaft 11 is rotatably provided in the recessed space of the first mounting block 10. "Concave"-shaped second mounting blocks 12 are provided on both sides of the seat plate 1. A second rotating shaft 13 is rotatably provided in the recessed space of the second mounting block 12. The first mounting block 10 and the second mounting block 12 on the same side of the seat plate 1 form a set of support components. An expansion link 14 is provided in each set of support components. The end portions of each expansion link 14 are respectively fixedly sleeved on the first rotating shaft 11 and the second rotating shaft 13 in this set; through holes 15 are formed on both sides of the seat plate 1. The two racks 9 are respectively vertically slidably provided in the two through holes 15; the portion of the rack 9 located below the seat plate 1 meshes with the fourth gear 7.

[0026] By providing the first mounting block 10, the first rotating shaft 11, the second mounting block 12, the second rotating shaft 13, the expansion link 14 and the through hole 15, the rotation of the fourth gear 7 drives the vertical movement of the rack 9, thereby driving the vertical movement of the armrest 8. When the armrest 8 moves vertically, the expansion link 14 cooperates with the expansion and contraction and rotates in the first mounting block 10 and the second mounting block 12, thereby preventing the armrest 8 from lacking support and causing the rack 9 and the fourth gear 7 to fail to mesh, and further causing the transmission shaft 3 to be unable to drive the armrest 8 to move vertically.

[0027] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, two protective covers 29 are further included. The protective covers 29 are provided on the top of the seat plate 1 and are connected to the armrest 8. The two protective covers 29 respectively cover the first mounting block 10, the first rotating shaft 11, the second mounting block 12, the second rotating shaft 13 and the expansion link 14 on the same side. The protective cover 29 is made of plastic and can vertically expand and contract along with the vertical movement of the armrest 8, preventing the components from being exposed outside and getting stuck in the user's hair or skin, resulting in safety accidents. As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the armrest 8 is divided into a connecting portion 801 and a working portion 802. The connecting portion 801 of the armrest 8 is connected to the rack 9 and the bottom area of the connecting portion 801 of the armrest 8 is larger than the hole area of the through hole 15, preventing the connecting portion 801 of the armrest 8 from falling down from the through hole 15, improving safety. The first mounting block 10 is provided on the connecting portion 801 of the armrest 8. The working portion 802 of the armrest 8 is slidably provided above the connecting portion 801 of the armrest 8.

[0028] As Figure 4As shown, the working part 802 of the armrest 8 is in a "convex" shape. A row of working grooves 16 are formed in the protruding part of the working part 802 of the armrest 8. A spring 17 is fixedly arranged inside the working groove 16. The other end of the spring 17 is fixedly provided with a plug-in block 18. The two sides of the end of the plug-in block 18 facing the moving direction of the plug-in block 18 are inclined surfaces, and the two inclined surfaces approach each other along the direction away from the spring 17. A sliding groove 19 is formed in the connecting part 801 of the armrest 8. The working part 802 of the armrest 8 is slidably arranged in the sliding groove 19. A plug-in hole 20 is formed in the side wall of the sliding groove 19. One of the plug-in blocks 18 is used to penetrate into the plug-in hole 20 as the working part 802 of the armrest 8 slides in the sliding groove 19.

[0029] By providing a row of working grooves 16, a spring 17, a plug-in block 18, a sliding groove 19 and a plug-in hole 20, when the user moves the armrest 8, the working part 802 of the armrest 8 is driven to slide in the sliding groove 19. At this time, the inclined surface of the plug-in block 18 is squeezed, thereby squeezing the spring 17. The spring 17 contracts and drives the plug-in block 18 to move into the working groove 16. The working part 802 of the armrest 8 continues to slide, and the plug-in block 18 enters another plug-in hole 20 under the pushing of the spring 17, so as to realize the adjustment of the front and rear positions of the armrest 8, which is suitable for different users and has stronger practicability.

[0030] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, third rotating shafts 21 are respectively rotatably arranged on both sides of the backrest 2. A support block 22 is arranged on one side of the seat plate 1 close to the backrest 2. The support block 22 includes a first support part 2201 and a second support part 2202. The structure of the first support part 2201 of the support block 22 is in a "concave" shape. The two third rotating shafts 21 are respectively rotatably arranged on both sides of the first support part 2201 of the support block 22. The second support part 2202 of the support block 22 is fixedly connected to the seat plate 1. Two support rods 23 are arranged at the bottom of the backrest 2. A first rotating shaft 24 is fixedly arranged inside the two support rods 23. The second gear 5 is fixedly sleeved on the first rotating shaft 24. Two first connecting rods 25 are fixedly arranged at the bottom of the seat plate 1. A second rotating shaft 26 is rotatably arranged inside the two first connecting rods 25. The third gear 6 is fixedly sleeved on the second rotating shaft 26. Two second connecting rods 27 are fixedly arranged at the bottom of the seat plate 1. The transmission shaft 3 is rotatably arranged inside the two second connecting rods 27. The first gear 4 is fixedly sleeved on the transmission shaft 3.

[0031] By setting the third rotating shaft 21, the support block 22, the support rod 23, the first rotating shaft 24, the first connecting rod 25, the second rotating shaft 26 and the second connecting rod 27, the support for the backrest 2, the second gear 5, the third gear 6, the transmission shaft 3 and the first gear 4 is specifically realized respectively. One end of the transmission shaft 3 is fixedly provided with a knob 28, and the outer surface of the knob 28 has threads, making it more labor-saving for the user to rotate the knob 28.

[0032] Working principle:

[0033] When it is necessary to increase the tilt angle of the backrest 2, rotate the knob 28 to drive the transmission shaft 3 to rotate. The rotation of the transmission shaft 3 drives the first gear 4 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 4 drives the third gear 6 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 6 drives the second gear 5 to rotate. The rotation of the second gear 5 drives the backrest 2 to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle of the backrest 2.

[0034] While the transmission shaft 3 is rotating, it also drives the fourth gear 7 to rotate. The rotation of the fourth gear 7 drives the rack 9 to move vertically downward. The vertical downward movement of the rack 9 drives the armrest 8 to move vertically downward, and thus the whole operation is completed.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
