[0029] The linkage mechanism includes a seventh connecting rod 16 hinged on the second connecting rod 5 and a cushion rod 17 hinged on the first support rod 3 . The seventh connecting rod 16 and the cushion rod 17 are hinged to each other, and the cushion bracket 1 is connected to the two cushion rods 17 .

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, a cushion frame 18 is provided between the two cushion rods, and the second support rod 8 is connected to the cushion frame 18 .

[0031] like Figure 1As shown, in this example, preferably, a first drive mounting rod 19 is provided before the two first support rods 3, and the first drive mechanism includes a first electric telescopic rod 20, the fixed end of the first electric telescopic rod 20 is hinged to the first drive mounting rod 19, and the telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 20 is hinged to the first drive rod 7.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, in this example, preferably, a second drive mounting rod 21 is provided between the two second support rods 8, and the second drive mechanism includes a second electric telescopic rod 22, the fixed end of the second electric telescopic rod 22 is hinged to the second drive mounting rod 21, and the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod 22 is hinged to the second drive rod 15.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, in this example, preferably, a first hinged rod 23 is provided on the cushion bracket 1, a second hinged rod 24 is provided on the headrest bracket 2, the first hinged rod 23 is hinged to the second hinged rod 24, and a third driving mechanism is provided between the headrest bracket 2 and the cushion bracket 1.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, in this example, preferably, the third connecting rod 9 is a straight rod, the fourth connecting rod 10 is a concave rod, the two ends of the fourth connecting rod 10 are respectively hinged to the second support rod 8 and the fifth connecting rod 11, the fifth connecting rod 11 is a V-shaped rod, the two ends of which are respectively hinged to the fourth connecting rod 10 and the foot pad rod 13, and the V-shaped bottom is hinged to the third connecting rod 9.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, in this example, preferably, the main frame includes a bottom frame 25 and a backrest frame 26, the first support rod 3 is connected to the bottom frame 25, and the backrest frame 26 is provided with a supporting inclined surface 27 and a headrest groove 28 corresponding to the headrest bracket 2.

[0036] The above electric sofa includes three commonly used main postures:

[0037] The first main posture is Figure 1 As shown, the seat cushion bracket 6 and the foot pad bracket are both in a retracted state, wherein the seat cushion frame 18 is in an inclined state, and the end close to the foot pad bracket is higher, and the end close to the back cushion bracket 1 is lower. The back cushion bracket 1 is in an inclined state, and the angle between the seat cushion frame 18 and the back cushion bracket 1 is greater than 90 degrees. The end of the headrest bracket 2 is located in the headrest groove 28 of the backrest frame 26, and the headrest bracket 2 is supported by the headrest groove 28 so that the surface of the headrest bracket 2 is horizontal. The foot pad 14 is close to the end of the bottom frame 25, and the bottom end of the foot pad 14 is closer to the low frame than the upper end, so that the foot pad 14 is slightly tilted inward;

[0038] The second main posture is Figure 2As shown, the headrest bracket 2 rotates first so that it is located in the same plane as the cushion bracket 1, and then the first electric telescopic rod 20 runs, and its telescopic end extends, driving the two seat cushion rods and the seat cushion frame 18 on the seat cushion rods to rotate through the first driving rod 7, and under the limiting action of the first connecting rod 4 and the second connecting rod 5, the end thereof close to the foot pad bracket rotates and tilts up, and the end close to the cushion bracket 1 rotates and descends, that is, the extension of the first electric telescopic rod 20 makes the seat cushion frame 18 more inclined, and the cushion bracket 1 rotates synchronously under the linkage of the linkage mechanism, and the rotation direction is away from the cushion frame 18, that is, the angle between the cushion frame 18 and the cushion bracket 1 becomes larger, and the upper end of the cushion bracket 1 and the headrest bracket 2 are located on the supporting inclined surface 27 of the backrest frame 26. At this time, the foot pad bracket is still in a retracted state, but with the extension of the seat cushion bracket 6, the foot pad 14 is lifted and is in a tilted state;

[0039] The third main posture is Figure 3 As shown, in the second main posture, the second electric telescopic rod 22 is running, and its telescopic end is extended, driving the third connecting rod 9 and the foot pad 14 to rotate through the second driving rod 15, so that the foot pad 14 is higher than the seat cushion frame 18, and at the same time, the foot pad 14 is in an inclined state, and the inclination direction is opposite to the seat cushion frame 18.

[0040] In addition, there is a fourth main posture, that is, the seat cushion bracket 6 is not extended, and the foot pad bracket is extended alone, which can be achieved by the second electric telescopic rod 22. However, in this posture, since the angle between the seat cushion frame 18 and the back cushion bracket 1 is small (greater than 90 degrees but less than 100 degrees), most users are in a relatively uncomfortable state in this posture. Therefore, the applicant usually does not put the control program of the fourth posture into the overall control program of the electric sofa during production, but it can be achieved under the special requirements of customers.

[0041] Specifically, in the first main posture, the headrest bracket 2 can be rotated by the third driving mechanism between the headrest bracket 2 and the back cushion bracket 1 so as to be in a horizontal or inclined state.

[0042] Of course, in order to save costs and space of the electric sofa, the third drive mechanism can be omitted and the rotation of the headrest can be changed to manual. At this time, the headrest bracket 2 cannot maintain the tilted state in the first main posture, and can only maintain the tilt in the second main posture through the support slope 27 on the backrest frame 26.

[0043] In summary, the electric sofa in this example has multiple postures and can meet the needs of most users.

[0044] like Figure 1As shown, specifically, in the first main posture, the first connecting rod 4 is tilted more than the second connecting rod 5, the cushion rod and the first support rod 3 are in a parallel state, and a support plate 29 is integrally connected to the first support rod 3. The width of one end of the support plate 29 is greater than that of the other end. The support plate 29 replaces the first support rod 3 and is connected to the bottom frame 25, so that the first support rod 3 and the cushion rod are tilted, and the cushion frame 18 is also tilted.

[0045] Specifically, an inclined connecting section 30 is provided between the first support rod 3 and the support plate 29 , so that a gap is left between the first support rod 3 and the inner wall of the bottom frame 25 , thereby improving the overall supporting strength of the seat cushion bracket 6 .

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, specifically, the cushion rod 17 is L-shaped, the end of the long section is hinged to the seventh connecting rod 16, the corner between the long section and the short section is hinged to the cushion rod, and a vertical fixing plate 31 is provided on the short section. The cushion bracket 1 is connected to the fixing plate 31, and the side of the cushion bracket 1 is also in contact with the cushion rod 17.

[0047] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. All technical solutions based on the concept of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, certain improvements and modifications that do not depart from the principles of the present invention should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
