Detailed Description of the Embodiment

[0032] To more clearly illustrate the present utility model, the following further describes the present utility model with reference to the preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that the content specifically described below is illustrative rather than restrictive, and should not be used to limit the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installation", "connection", and "coupling" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 as shown. An adjustable seat structure on a simulation aircraft proposed by an embodiment of the present utility model includes an obliquely moving drive device 1; a seat 2, which is arranged on the obliquely moving drive device 1 and can perform translational movement obliquely upward or obliquely downward under the action of the obliquely moving drive device 2; a cushion body 3, which is laid on the front of the seat 2 and includes a seat cushion part and a backrest part; a horizontal sliding mechanism 4, which is arranged below the obliquely moving drive device 1, and the obliquely moving drive device 1 can move forward and backward along the extension direction of the horizontal sliding mechanism 4 together with the seat 2; a manual locking mechanism 5, which is arranged on the horizontal sliding mechanism 4 and is used to adjust the relative position of the obliquely moving drive device 1 on the horizontal sliding mechanism 4.

[0035] Specifically, the obliquely moving drive device 1 includes: a base plate 11, which is horizontally arranged; a support frame body 12, which is arranged on the surface of the base plate 11 in an inclined posture, that is, there is a certain angle between the support frame body 12 and the base plate 11; an oblique guide rail 13, which is arranged on the surface of the support frame body 12 along the length direction of the support frame body 12, and a connection slider 14 is slidably installed on the oblique guide rail 13 in a clamping form, and the connection slider 14 is connected to the seat 2; a lifting cylinder 15, the lower end of which is pivotally connected to the support frame body 12, and the output end of which is pivotally connected to the seat 2, and a toggle switch member 24 for controlling the lifting cylinder 15 is arranged on the seat 2. The seat 2 is driven by the lifting cylinder 15 to perform translational movement obliquely upward or obliquely downward relative to the support frame body 12, so as to realize the adjustment and change of the front-back spaciousness and height of the seat in the cockpit to adapt to different simulation operators.

[0036] Among them, a headrest 6 is arranged on the upper inner side of the support frame body 12. The headrest 6 has a concave portion 61 for supporting the head, and the concave portion presents a long strip shape. In this way, during the relative displacement of the seat relative to the support frame body, the head of the simulation operator sitting on the seat can always lean on the concave portion of the headrest, ensuring the comfort of the head.

[0037] Based on the above solution, the horizontal sliding mechanism 4 mainly includes a pair of horizontally extending and parallelly spaced horizontal guide rails 41. A horizontal slider 42 is slidably mounted on the horizontal guide rails 41 in a clamping manner. The horizontal slider 42 is connected to the base plate 11. In this way, the seat 2 together with the oblique movement driving device 1 is arranged on the base plate 11, and the base plate 11 can achieve forward and backward displacement movement relative to the cockpit through the cooperation of the horizontal guide rails 41 and the horizontal slider 42 to appropriately adjust the placement control of the legs of the simulated operator.

[0038] Among them, the manual locking mechanism 5 includes: a limiting strip 51. There is a pair of parallelly spaced limiting strips 51 arranged between the two horizontal guide rails 41. A number of spaced limiting card slots 511 are formed in an array along the length direction of the surface of the limiting strip 51; an adjusting lever 52, which can be inserted into any one of the limiting card slots 511 on the limiting strip 51. A connecting shaft rod 53 is arranged on the adjusting lever 52. The upper part of the connecting shaft rod 53 can movably penetrate upward through the base plate 11, and a blocking portion 531 is arranged on the upper part of the connecting shaft rod 53. A telescopic spring 532 is sleeved on the connecting shaft rod 53 between the base plate 11 and the adjusting lever 52; a bent handle 54, which is composed of a vertical part and a horizontal part. The tail end of the horizontal part is provided with a rotating shaft 55. The rotating shaft 55 is installed on the bottom surface of the base plate 11 through a rotating seat 56. A torsion spring 551 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 55. Under the action of the torsion spring 551, the horizontal part of the bent handle 54 can keep in contact with the adjusting lever 52.

[0039] When the manual locking mechanism 5 is in use: First, the simulated operator sitting on the seat 2 pulls up the bent handle 54 through the vertical part of the bent handle 54 on the front side of the seat 2. In this way, the horizontal part of the bent handle 54 will rotate through the rotating shaft 55, and at the same time, the horizontal part of the bent handle 54 will lift the adjusting lever 52 upward by a certain distance, so that the adjusting lever 52 disengages from the limiting card slot 511 of the limiting strip 51, and the action of pulling up the bent handle 54 is maintained; Then, the simulated operator controls the seat 2 to move forward or backward by himself. The adjusting lever 52 will move forward and backward together with the base plate 11. After the simulated operator adjusts the position of the seat, the bent handle 54 is released. The adjusting lever 52 will return downward to the initial position under the action of the telescopic spring 532 on the connecting shaft rod 53, that is, the adjusting lever 52 is downwardly inserted into the limiting card slot 511 of the limiting strip 51 at this time to realize the positioning of the adjusting lever 52, and the bent handle 54 will also, under the action of the torsion spring 551, ensure that the horizontal part of the bent handle 54 can keep in contact with the bottom end of the adjusting lever 52; Through the above operation process, the purpose of timely positioning when manually adjusting the seat back and forth is realized.

[0040] Among them, a receiving notch 521 is formed at the bottom end of the adjusting lever 52 for placing the horizontal part of the bent handle 54. Through the design of the receiving notch, the stability of the bent handle at rest is ensured, and problems such as jitter and offset between the bent handle and the adjusting lever are avoided.

[0041] Among them, the vertical part of the bent handle 54 is located at the front side of the seat 2, and a recessed notch 21 is formed in the middle position of the front side of the seat 2 for placing the vertical part of the bent handle, so as to facilitate hiding the vertical part of the bent handle and avoid the bent handle being too obtrusive.

[0042] Based on the above solution, rotatable armrest side plates 22 are provided on both sides of the middle of the seat 2, and armrest stoppers 23 for placing the armrest side plates 22 are provided on the side of the seat 2; when the armrest side plates are needed, just rotate the armrest side plates downward so that their bottom ends contact the armrest stoppers, and when the armrest side plates are not needed, just rotate the armrest side plates upward so that they stop rotating at the side of the seat. The use of the armrest side plates is very flexible and convenient.

[0043] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly explaining the present invention, rather than limitations on the implementation manners of the present invention. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. Any obvious changes or variations derived from the technical solutions of the present invention still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
