Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle seats, in particular to a driver seat. Background Art

[0002] In modern vehicle safety systems, the height adjustment function of seat belts has become a standard configuration, aiming to provide a personalized wearing experience and enhance the protection effect in emergency situations. This function is achieved through a height adjuster, which allows passengers to adjust the position of the seat belt according to their own height and sitting posture, ensuring that it can more effectively restrict the forward movement of passengers during a collision. However, while realizing this convenient function, there is also an urgent problem to be solved: when the seat belt is adjusted in height or pulled, it will frequently pass through the hanging groove and make direct contact with the edges or corners of the hanging groove, resulting in significant friction.

[0003] Although many seat belt systems on the current market have adopted hanging grooves with an arc-shaped design in order to reduce the friction with the seat belt, this design still fails to completely eliminate the problem in actual applications. Due to the physical properties of the seat belt material and the complexity of the use environment, even on the smooth surface of the hanging groove (sliding friction), long-term friction will still cause the gradual wear of the surface material of the seat belt. This wear not only affects the appearance of the seat belt, but more importantly, it may weaken the structural strength of the seat belt, increasing the risk of the seat belt breaking and failing at a critical moment, thus endangering the safety of passengers.

[0004] Therefore, we provide a driver seat to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0034] Embodiment:

[0035] To meet the needs of different people for the height of the seat belt, people adjust the height of the seat belt through the height adjuster 400, so that the height of the seat belt meets the needs of different people. To achieve the adjustment of the seat belt, a hanging groove is usually provided on the height adjustment button of the height adjuster 400. Specifically, the seat belt passes through the hanging groove, and then the height adjustment button of the height adjuster 400 moves in height to achieve the height adjustment of the seat belt passing through the hanging groove. However, the surface of the existing hanging groove is set as an edge or an arc surface. Because when adjusting the height or when the seat belt is retracted and stretched, the seat belt will directly contact with the edge or the arc surface for sliding friction. However, with long-term use, it will cause certain damage to the surface of the seat belt, affecting the strength of the seat belt, and in severe cases, it may cause a fracture phenomenon.

[0036] This application mainly replaces the edge or the arc surface at the position of the hanging groove with a roller 600, converting the sliding friction into rolling friction, thereby reducing the friction force on the surface of the seat belt, further reducing the damage to its surface, and improving the service life of the seat belt.

[0037] This application provides a driver's seat, including a seat 100 and a backrest 200. The backrest 200 is rotatably connected to the seat 100.
