At this time, the armrest frame 23, the connecting frame 8 and the two movable sleeves 22 form a whole.
[0047] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5, a mounting plate 5 is provided in the middle of the two movable sleeves 22, and a mounting groove 51 is provided in the middle of the surface of the mounting plate 5. The surface of the dual-axis motor 7 moves through the mounting groove 51. The mounting plate 5 is located at both ends of the mounting groove 51 and is bent and extended outward to form two clamping blocks 52. The two clamping blocks 52 are clamped and fixed with the two ends of the dual-axis motor 7. Two curved surfaces 57 are provided at both ends of the mounting plate 5. Two through grooves 55 are provided in the middle of the two curved surfaces 57. The size of the two through grooves 55 is larger than the size of the rotating shaft of the dual-axis motor 7.

The upper and lower ends of the mounting plate 5 are symmetrically provided with flanges 56, which can enhance the overall structural strength of the mounting plate 5.
[0048] During installation, the body of the screw lift 4 is placed in the square groove 221 of the movable sleeve 22, so that the inner side of the convex surface 59 of the mounting plate 5 and the inner side of the support frame 6 can clamp the body surface of the screw lift 4 and fix it by bolts, and the bottom end of the screw 3 of the screw lift 4 is welded and fixed to the support block 211 at the bottom of the fixed guide rail 21, and the two ends of the dual-axis motor 7 are respectively clamped and fixed to the inner sides of the two clamping blocks 52, and the two rotating sleeves 54 are respectively put on the rotating shafts at both ends of the dual-axis motor 7, and are respectively clamped and fixed to the inner sides of the two clamping blocks 53. At this time, the rotating shafts of the dual-axis motor 7 are respectively fixedly connected to the input shafts of the two screw lifts 4, so that the dual-axis motor 7 can control the body of the screw lift 4 to move on the screw 3.
[0049] It should be noted that after the mounting plate 5 is fixed to the movable sleeve 22 , the position of the dual-axis motor 7 is located between the two movable sleeves 22 , which can improve the utilization of space while maintaining structural stability, so that the support armrest 2 does not appear bloated.
[0050] The screw lift 4 includes an input shaft fixed to the output shaft of the dual-shaft motor 7 , a body fixed to the inner side of the support frame 6 , and other structures.
[0051] Among them, the screw lift 4 adopts the lifting structure in the announcement number CN214083981U, the dual-axis motor 7 and the wire connection with the dual-axis motor 7 are all existing technologies, and its structural principle will not be described in detail here. The dual-axis motor 7 can adopt an intelligent dual-axis brushless motor, which can reduce mechanical wear, extend the life of the motor, and further reduce maintenance costs and energy consumption. The control circuit of the dual-axis motor 7 can use the existing one. If special actions are required, additional setting programs are required to control it.

When the body of the screw lifts 4 moves, it simultaneously drives the two movable sleeves 22 to slide on the inside of the fixed guide rail 21. When the two movable sleeves 22 move, they drive the mounting plate 5 and the support frame 6 to move. The movement of the movable sleeves 22 further drives the connecting frame 8 and the armrest frame 23 to move, so that the armrest part of the seat can be raised and lowered. After adjusting the height of the armrest to the appropriate position, turn off the motor.
[0054] It should be noted that the length of the screw rod 3 is shorter than the length of the fixed guide rail 21. When the body of the screw rod lifter 4 moves to the highest point on the screw rod 3, the movable sleeve 22 will not separate from the fixed guide rail 21, and normal use will not be affected.
[0055] The implementation principle of a lifting armrest and a seat with the lifting armrest in an embodiment of the present application is: by controlling the dual-axis motor 7 to adjust the height of the support armrest 2, the height of the support armrest 2 can be suitable for people of different heights, the dual-axis motor 7 is turned on, and the rotating shaft of the dual-axis motor 7 will drive the input shafts of the two screw lifts 4. The bodies of the two screw lifts 4 will move up and down on the surface of the screw 3, and the bodies of the screw lifts 4 will drive the movable sleeve 22 and the armrest frame 23 to move up and down on the inner side of the fixed guide rail 21, further making the height of the support armrest 2 adjustable, and finally adjusting the support armrest 2 to a comfortable position according to the needs of the user.
[0056] Example 2
[0057] Reference Figure 7 , which is different from Example 1, is that a chair with the lifting armrest includes support armrests 2 arranged on both sides of the seat body 1 for achieving lifting.
[0058] The support armrests 2 on both sides of the seat body 1 can realize the lifting function by being driven by the dual-axis motor 7. When the height of the support armrests 2 is reduced to the lowest, the outer surface of the support armrests is flush with the surface of the seat cushion, thereby increasing the seat's accommodating area and being able to accommodate more people.
[0059] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
