Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vehicle seats, and relates to the installation and fixation of headrests, in particular to a novel guide sleeve that is unlocked by pressing downwards. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the headrest rods of the integrated seat headrests on the market are all welded to the seat frame integrally. During the production process or later maintenance, if the headrest is damaged, the entire frame needs to be replaced, greatly increasing the maintenance cost. The headrest rods of the existing split headrests are installed on the seat frame in a detachable manner; however, its unlocking button is set on the side (Y direction) and protrudes from the headrest surface, which is not applicable to the integrated seat headrests. Therefore, it is necessary to design a guide sleeve structure applicable to the integrated seat headrests. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the above technical problems and disadvantages, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a novel guide sleeve that is unlocked by pressing downwards. Pressing down the unlocking button of the guide sleeve can open the Z-direction limit on the headrest rod and remove the headrest; stopping pressing the unlocking button can automatically restore the Z-direction limit on the headrest rod, enabling the integrated seat headrest to be detachable and greatly reducing the production cost or later maintenance cost.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

A locking pin installation groove 114 is provided circumferentially on the outer side wall of the columnar assembly part 11 near the middle, and one side of the locking pin installation groove 114 communicates with the first headrest rod assembly hole 111. The button installation part 12 is a groove-shaped structure, and an avoidance notch 121 is provided on the side of the sliding groove 112.

[0031] The unlocking button 2 includes a pressing part 21 arranged in the button installation part 12, a sliding part 22 arranged at the bottom of the pressing part and arranged in the sliding groove 112, and an insertion part 23 arranged at the bottom of the pressing part and inserted into the insertion hole 113. A return spring 3 is arranged between the pressing part 21 and the button installation part 12, and a second headrest rod assembly hole 211 is provided at a position opposite to the first headrest rod assembly hole 111. Lower limit parts 221 are provided on both sides of the sliding part 22 near the pressing part 21, and an upper limit part 222 is provided at the lower end of the sliding part 22. The lower limit part 221 and the upper limit part 222 cooperate to limit the Z-direction movement stroke of the unlocking button 2. An inclined driving part 24 is provided on the lower end of the sliding part 22 near one side of the headrest rod locking groove. After the inclined driving part 24 moves downwards, it is used to drive the locking pin 4 to move away from the headrest rod locking groove.

The upper ends of the two return springs 3 are respectively installed and fixed on the two installation columns 212, and the lower ends of the return springs 3 are in contact with the bottom surface of the button installation part 12.

[0034] Further, as Figure 2 、 Figure 4As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, an X-direction limiting portion 115 is provided at the front side of the columnar assembly portion 11 near the sliding groove 112, and the lower end of the sliding portion 22 is disposed inside the X-direction limiting portion 115; a Y-direction limiting portion 116 is provided on the side surface of the columnar assembly portion 11 outside the locking pin installation groove 114, and the Y-direction limiting portion 116 is used to limit the moving stroke of the locking pin 4.

[0035] Further, as Figure 4 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, two symmetrical claws 117 are provided at a position near the upper end of the outer wall of the columnar assembly portion 11. Slots (not marked) are provided on the upper surface and the left and right sides of the two claws 117 to increase the deformation tension of the claws, so as to facilitate insertion and extraction, and facilitate installation and disassembly.

[0036] Further, as Figure 8 shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the mobile end of the locking pin 4 is of a rod-shaped structure.

[0037] In this embodiment, the headrest guide sleeve body 1 and the unlocking button 2 are both of an integral structure. The headrest guide sleeve body 1 is made of PP material, which also realizes the lightweight of parts and reduces costs.

[0038] When using the guide sleeve of the present utility model, first fix the guide sleeve in the backrest frame sleeve, and then insert the headrest rod along the second headrest rod assembly hole 211 into the first headrest rod assembly hole 111 of the columnar assembly portion 11. Under normal conditions, the locking pin 4 at the mobile end extends into the first headrest rod assembly hole 111 and cooperates with the headrest rod locking groove to lock and fix the headrest rod; when it is necessary to repair the headrest during the production process or later, only need to press down the unlocking button 2. At this time, the sliding portion 22 drives the inclined drive portion 24 to move downward. Under the action of the inclined drive portion 24, the locking pin 4 at the mobile end gradually moves away from the headrest rod locking groove, and the Z-direction limit on the headrest rod is opened. At this time, the headrest can be smoothly removed for repair. After the repair, the headrest is assembled and the cover is sleeved.
