Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of furniture, in particular to a large-span telescopic footrest and a multi-functional modular chair. Background Art

[0002] Most of the existing chairs do not have a footrest. Among the chairs with a footrest, the telescopic length of the footrest is short, and the structure of the pedal in the footrest is relatively complex. Generally, there are two plates under the foam and they are connected by screws. The structure of multiple components is relatively complex.

[0003] Patent CN201820320080.2 discloses a horizontally telescopic footrest cushion device and a lounge chair with the device. The horizontally telescopic footrest cushion device includes a cushion structure and a footrest structure. The cushion structure and the footrest structure are connected by a horizontally telescopic structure. The horizontally telescopic footrest cushion device is provided with a power structure for providing a power source for the horizontally telescopic structure. A horizontally telescopic footrest cushion device of the utility model can realize the horizontal extension and contraction of the footrest through the structure setting. Since the footrest mechanical device makes horizontal extension and contraction movements, the footrest occupies less space, which can provide a larger rest space for the legs when people are sitting, without the feeling of pressing against the legs, and makes the overall chair look more integrated, with breakthrough functional characteristics in terms of usability and aesthetics. However, the telescopic length of this patent is small, the structure is relatively complex, and it cannot rotate with a small arc following the foot. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the defects of the existing technology such as short telescopic length, relatively complex multi-component structure, and inability to rotate with a small arc in cooperation with the foot, and provide a large-span telescopic footrest with a large-span stroke, high comfort, simple structure, and the design of a rotating part, so that when the foot is placed on the pedal, the pedal can tilt at a certain angle under pressure, enhancing comfort.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0006] The utility model provides a large-span telescopic footrest, which is arranged on the back of the base of the chair. The footrest includes a telescopic connecting rod and a pedal which are connected to each other;

[0007] The telescopic connecting rod includes a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, and a third connecting rod which are connected in sequence. One end of the first connecting rod extends into the pedal and is slidably connected to the pedal. The first connecting rod can utilize the space of the pedal to achieve a larger span. The first connecting rod is slidably connected to the second connecting rod, the second connecting rod is slidably connected to the third connecting rod, and the third connecting rod is fixedly connected to the back of the base of the chair;

[0008] The pedal includes a soft package and a plastic part. The soft package is disposed on the plastic part, and the periphery of the soft package is embedded in a groove provided on the plastic part.

[0009] Furthermore, the telescopic length of the telescopic connecting rod is 441 mm.

[0010] Furthermore, one end of the first connecting rod is slidably connected to the pedal through a connecting member. One end of the first connecting rod is slidably connected to the connecting member, the connecting member is fixedly connected to the pedal, a third sliding block is provided on the first connecting rod, a third sliding groove is provided on the connecting member, and one end of the first connecting rod and the connecting member are slidably connected through the third sliding block and the third sliding groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the pedal further includes a rotating member. A rotating shaft is provided in the middle of the rotating member, and the rotating shaft sequentially passes through the rotating member and the connecting member. When pressure is applied to the pedal by the leg, the pedal can rotate a small angle around the rotating shaft.

[0012] Furthermore, a first sliding block is provided at the other end of the first connecting rod, a first sliding groove is provided on the second connecting rod, and the first sliding block slides in the first sliding groove.

[0013] Furthermore, a second sliding block is provided on the second connecting rod, a second sliding groove is provided on the third connecting rod, and the second sliding block slides in the second sliding groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the soft package includes a fabric and a foam disposed under the fabric. The periphery of the foam is embedded in a groove provided on the plastic part.

[0015] Furthermore, the fabric of the soft package is a textile fabric or leather.

[0016] Furthermore, a bottom plate is further provided under the plastic part, and the bottom plate is fixedly connected to the plastic part by screws.

[0017] The present utility model further provides a multi-functional modular chair including a large-span telescopic footrest. The chair includes a backrest module, a headrest module, a base, an armrest module, a chair leg module, and a footrest module. The footrest module is disposed on the back of the base of the chair. One of a back tilt module, a synchronous tilt module, and a seat sliding module is further provided on the back of the base. The armrest module is detachably connected to the base.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model has the following advantages:

[0019] (1) It has a large-span stroke and high comfort. With the design of the three-section telescopic rod, and at the same time, the connecting rod borrows the space in the pedal, which can further increase the span, so that the footrest can be retracted and hidden in the base of the chair or extended a long distance, and the telescopic stroke can reach 441 mm.

[0020] (2) Simple structure. The pedal fastening method is that the foam is directly snapped into the groove provided under the plastic part. Compared with the prior art where there are two plates under the foam and then screwed together, it has a simpler structure and saves costs at the same time.

[0021] (3) The design of the rotating part enables the pedal to tilt at a certain angle when the foot is placed on the pedal, enhancing comfort. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
