Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] like Figure 1 、 2 3 is a lumbar support assembly of a chair of the present invention, which includes a support seat 40, a main lumbar support 20, and a secondary lumbar support 30, wherein the support seat 40 includes a first end 401 and a second end 402, the first end 401 is installed on the backrest 10 of the seat, and the second end 402 extends forward, the support seat 40 also includes a bottom surface located between the first end 401 and the second end 402 and placed at the bottom of the support seat 40, the main lumbar support 20 is connected to the second end 402 of the support seat 40, and the front side of the main lumbar support 20 forms a main supporting surface; the secondary lumbar support 30 includes an elastic connector 31 and a support frame 32, the upper end of the elastic connector 31 is connected to the bottom surface of the support seat 40 so that the elastic connector 31 extends downward from the bottom surface of the support seat 40, and the support frame 32 is connected to the elastic connector The connecting member 31 is arranged so that the support frame 32 is located below the main lumbar support 20, and the front side surface of the support frame 32 forms a secondary support surface located below the main support surface. When the support frame 32 is squeezed, the elastic connecting member 31 can be deformed. For example, when the secondary support surface is subjected to a backward squeezing force from the user's sacrum, the elastic connecting member 31 swings backward, causing the support frame 32 to swing backward. When the user's sacrum no longer squeezes the secondary support surface backward, the elastic connecting member 31 rebounds and enables the support frame 32 to swing forward and reset. In this way, the support frame 32 is connected to the bottom of the support seat 40 by using the elastic connecting member 31. The secondary support surface formed by the support frame 32 has a certain degree of freedom to swing forward and backward, and the elastic connecting member 31 provides elastic support force for the support frame 32.

[0028] When using the chair, most areas of the user's waist are supported by the main support surface on the main lumbar support 20, and the secondary support surface on the support frame 32 can support the user's sacrum below the waist. Since the support frame 32 is supported by the elastic connector 31, the user's sacrum will generate a backward squeezing force on the secondary support surface when it contacts the secondary support surface. The support frame 32 can adaptively swing backward so that the secondary support surface can adapt to the user's body shape and sitting posture. Then, the lumbar support assembly can not only support the user's waist, but also provide support for the user's sacrum to relieve fatigue of the sacrum and improve the comfort of the chair, especially when the user leans back from a sitting position to a lying position, the secondary support surface on the support frame 32 can swing upward to a certain angle with the support seat 40, so as to better support the user's sacrum when the user is in a lying position and avoid the sacrum being suspended in the air.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the elastic connector 31 includes a connecting plate 311 and a spring clip 312. The connecting plate 311 is a flat plate that matches the bottom surface of the support base 40. The connecting plate 311 is fixed to the bottom surface of the support base 40 using bolts. The spring clip 312 extends downward from the connecting plate 311, and the support frame 32 is connected to the spring clip 312. The spring clip 312 can be made of a metal plate. The length and thickness of the spring clip 312 can be appropriately adjusted to ensure that the elastic stress generated by the spring clip 312 meets the requirements for adaptive support of the user's sacrum.

[0030] In order to make the lumbar support assembly further adaptable to the body shapes of different users, the support frame 32 is fixedly connected to the spring piece 312 in an upward and downward adjustable manner. By adjusting the support frame 32 up and down, the distance between the secondary support surface on the support frame 32 and the main support surface on the main lumbar support 20 is changed, thereby adapting to users of different body shapes. The cam 330 is fixed to the cam 331 on the left and right sides of the cam 332 and the cam 333 is fixed to the cam 332 by screw thread, so that the cam 332 can be fixed to the cam 332 by screw thread, so that the cam 332 can be fixed to the cam 332 by screw thread, so that the cam 332 can be fixed to the cam 332 by screw thread, so that the cam 332 can be fixed to the cam 332 by screw thread, so that the cam 332 can be fixed to the cam 332 by screw thread, When the height of the support frame 32 needs to be adjusted, the bolts connecting the cover plate 33 and the connecting portion 321 are removed to release the limit column 34 from the cover plate 33 and the spring 312. At this time, the support frame 32 can move up and down. After the support frame 32 is moved to the appropriate position, the limit column 34 is embedded in the second slot 331 and the first slot 314 at the corresponding position. The cover plate 33 and the spring 312 are then locked together with the bolts to complete the adjustment of the height position of the support frame 32. By adjusting the height position of the support frame 32, the spacing distance between the secondary support surface and the main support surface is changed to adapt to users of different body shapes. In other embodiments, the mating surface 330 may also be formed by the surface of the connecting portion 321 facing the spring piece 312 , and in conjunction with the above-mentioned first slot 314 , second slot 331 and limiting column 34 , the relative position of the support frame 32 and the spring piece 312 can also be adjusted.

[0031] The above-mentioned support seat 40 gradually tilts upward from back to front, and the spring piece 312 gradually tilts forward from top to bottom. In this way, the secondary support surface on the front side of the support frame 32 is an inclined structure, so that the secondary support surface and the main support surface are coordinated with ergonomic requirements, further enhancing the supporting effect of the lumbar support component on the user's waist.

[0032] In another preferred embodiment, a connecting seat 50 is provided on the back side of the main lumbar support 20, and the connecting seat 50 is pivotally connected to the second end 402 of the support seat 40 through a transversely extending rotating shaft 52, so that the main lumbar support 20 can swing back and forth relative to the support seat 40, and a supporting spring 51 is further provided between the connecting seat 50 and the second end 402 of the support seat 40. The supporting spring 51 is located above the rotating shaft 52, and the supporting spring 51 and the rotating shaft 52 are staggered a certain distance in the height direction, so that the elastic stress generated by the supporting spring 51 has a certain torque after being applied to the connecting seat 50, so that the supporting spring 51 can apply an elastic supporting force to the main lumbar support 20, and the user's waist can squeeze the main supporting surface of the main lumbar support 20, so that the main lumbar support 20 can swing back and forth adaptively, so as to automatically adjust the main supporting surface of the main lumbar support 20 to the optimal support angle. The main lumbar support 20 is provided with a movable seat 21. The movable seat 21 slidably engages with the connecting seat 50, allowing the main lumbar support 20 to move vertically relative to the connecting seat 50 along with the movable seat 21. An elastic element is provided between the movable seat 21 and the connecting seat 50. This elastic element can specifically be a tension spring 53. One end of the tension spring 53 is connected to the movable seat 21 and the other end is connected to the connecting seat 50. The elastic stress provided by the tension spring 53 constantly pulls the movable seat 21 upward, ensuring that the movable seat 21 always maintains an upward movement trend. When using the chair, the user's waist exerts downward pressure on the main lumbar support 20, allowing the movable seat 21 to move downward along with the main lumbar support 20, allowing the main lumbar support 20 to automatically adapt to the user's sitting posture and body shape in the vertical direction. It should be noted that the elastic element is not limited to the tension spring 53. It can also be a spring or other elastic component provided between the movable seat 21 and the connecting seat 50.

[0033] In the present invention, the support seat 40 includes a guide seat 41 and a support column 42. The guide seat 41 is connected to the backrest 10 of the seat as the first end 401 of the support seat 40. The support column 42 is connected to the guide seat 41 and cooperates with the guide seat 41 in a manner that can be adjusted forward and backward. The front end of the support column 42 protrudes from the outside of the guide seat 41 to form the second end 402 of the support seat 40. The upper end of the elastic connecting member 31 of the present invention is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support column 42. The support seat 40 is composed of the guide seat 41 and the support column 42. By adjusting the support column 42 forward and backward, the front and rear positions of the main lumbar support 20 and the auxiliary lumbar support 30 can be adjusted. The guide seat 41 is connected to the backrest 10 of the seat in a manner that can be adjusted up and down, so that the up and down positions of the main lumbar support 20 and the auxiliary lumbar support 30 can be adjusted.

[0034] The seat of the present invention includes the above-mentioned lumbar support assembly of the seat. Other structures of the seat are the same as those in the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above-mentioned implementation mode is only an optional embodiment of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and replacements made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
